Tuesday, August 9, 2022

The newest addition to the Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links meta -- the anti-synchro deck, Meklords -- dominated this weekend at GGtoor x DLE Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links Showdown #32! Many players brought Meklords to counter the synchro-based, Rose Dragon deck that won Showdown #31 two weeks ago. While some of the decks from the previous meta, such as D/D/D, were able to keep up with Rose Dragons in the last Showdown, it seems that they could not deal with both Rose Dragons AND Meklords this time around. These 2 decks absolutely tore up the competition, with the two archetypes EACH representing about 1/3 of the Top 32 cut, and a combined six of the Top eight slots! However, These 2 decks that would reach the finals were neither Rose Dragons nor Meklords; the first was EndS' Galaxy-Eyes, a deck famous for often getting 2nd place in prior metas. The other was Teiko's Phantom Knights, the meta king from the beginning of the year.

Key Points: 
  • Many players brought Meklords to counter the synchro-based, Rose Dragon deck that won Showdown #31 two weeks ago.
  • The other was Teiko's Phantom Knights, the meta king from the beginning of the year.
  • However, EndS' Galaxy-Eyes, with its early-game aggression, out-muscled Phantom Knights Game 2, but not before Teiko revealed EndS' "Shadow-Imprisoning Mirror" tech.
  • Game 3 then progressed similar to Game one, but EndS was prepared for a long-game with his "Shadow-Imprisoning Mirror."
