Tier List Update: 2 July 2019

Overview

The Tier List will be categorized into two sections which are Tier List (PvP & KOG) and Tier List (Tournament Format / Bo3 and Bo5 Format).

Tier List (PvP & KOG)

This is the tier list based on the KOG section and deck performance in PvP Ladder Format.

Tier 1

Tier 2

Ancient Gear deck still has pretty good matchups rate against the other deck. It still is a good deck in the PvP Ladder Format although this deck is not the best choice for the meta players currently. The combo between The White Stone of Ancient or Dawn Knight with Dragon Spirit of White is not enough in the current meta environment since there are variant ways to get rid of the 3000 beaters of the Blue-Eyes deck like the combo with Umastryx and Final Battle. Magnet Warrior is pretty good and strong in the PvP Ladder Format. Berserkion the Electromagna Warrior is a powerful monster which has

high stats and good destructive effect (not once per turn) which makes the other meta players in trouble for sometimes. A lot of players reach the KOG stage by using this deck. I think this deck might be high potential as Tier 1 Deck in PvP Ladder Format later.

Tier 3

Koa'ki Meiru with Neos Fusion Engine still good in the PvP Ladder format. The powerful pairs of Koa'ki Meiru Ice and Koa'ki Meiru Maximus are still very useful against the Subterror Deck but this deck has a hard time against Red-Eyes deck and the inconsistency of this deck makes Koa'ki Meiru's win rate always 50-50. Combine with the Light and Dark skill which increases the consistency of this deck that makes Silent Magician that been specially summoned in one turn easily. A powerful Non-target banish card like Spellbook of Fate, which can counter the other meta decks like Red-Eyes but it will struggle against Subterror Deck.

Tier List (Tournament Format)

This tier list is based on the deck performance in Tournament or Bo3 (Best of three) and Bo5 (Best of Five) Format. As the Tournament Format has a Side Deck section which makes this tier list will be slightly different than the Tier List of PvP Ladder.

Tier 1

Red-Eyes Slash Dragon + Power of the Guardians combo is still a nightmare to the other meta players. A minimum 2800 ATK of Slash Dragon with 1 or more targetings negate effect is really powerful and dominant in the current meta-environment. Subterror still remains as one of the most dominant meta decks. The powerful effect of Subterror Behemoth Umastryx and Subterror Behemoth Stygokraken with the combination of Subterror Final Battle and Subterror Nemesis Warrior make them easily control the front and back row. This combo really makes other meta players into trouble since it is easy to work out.

Tier 2

Ancient Gear starts hard to compete in the Tournament Format due to the non-flexibility side tech cards that you can put in which makes this deck have less protection. With the side tech cards like Royal Command will make this deck much easier to deal with Subterror Deck to stop the combo with Umastryx and Final Battle. Non - Fusion Area can prevent the fusion summoning of Red-Eyes Slash Dragon which makes this deck can work better in the tournament format. World Legacy Clash increases this deck's performance in Tournament Format too and a Six Samurai deck with the good side tech cards makes this deck still performs well in the Tournament. Good side tech cards which are the Mispolymerization and Non-Fusion Area will make Spellbook easily deal with Red-Eyes deck whereas Forbidden Chalice and Cosmic Cyclone can be used to counter Subterror deck. Triamid deck can swarm the board, attack boost, set card destruction and the effect activation negate while the Triamid monsters attack by synergy with variants of the Triamid Field Spells. This deck receives pretty good performance in the Tournament format as their powerful synergies and well consistency.

Tier 3
