Thoughts Heading into the New September Format

I've done a lot of research and testing for the new format. These are just my initial conclusions:


Heroes are broken, tier 1, broken. Miracle Fusion is amazing, along with Super Poly. Other good cards include Bubbleman, Gemini Spark and Hero Blast.

Dark Worlds weren't touched by the list, so I believe it will be seen in greater proportions this format. I built the deck to playtest against, and when it draws amazing hands, you practically auto-lose. If I didn't despise this deck as much as I do, or it wasn't so combo and luck-based, I would play it in Toronto.

Dino-Rabbits aren't extinct in the slightest. People will compete with this deck in Toronto. I'm toying with a build maining Macro Cosmos now, since it disrupts Heroes slightly and Dark Worlds significantly.

Agents are back. Multiple boss monsters, and Honest. I haven't found a build I'm 100% confident in, but it is ridiculous.

Six Samurai will be played because it wasn't hit by the list, much like Dark World. This deck is quite luck-based, but I believe that is obvious.

Wind-Ups is an XYZ toolbox deck now, instead of a hand-looping deck. It is still a formidable force, in my opinion.

Geargia will see play in Toronto, because they are a new and promising Archtype. They also take on multiple forms (Geargia Karakuris, Machina, Gadgets, Scraps...). Expect this deck to make a showing in the Top 32 of Toronto.

Plant Synchro will also see play, because people will be dying to compete with this deck again. I know I want to, but I'm saving it for after Toronto, when there is no pressure.

Inzektors will probably still see some play, simply because we have 3 centipede. It is fairly simple to still complete the Dragonfly + Sword + Hornet OTK. I built the deck for this format...

Chaos Dragons/ Tefnuit DAD will likely see some play, simply because the deck is still fully functional.

I believe I will conclude this post now. My next posts will retain to particular match-ups, and the best cards for each match-up. If there is a specific deck you want me to cover, I will take it into consideration, most likely, if I didn't already plan on writing a post regarding that deck
