Dragons win oceanic nationals and my thoughs-ish.

Interesting seeing 1st place of oceanic nationals is chaos dragons.

What's more interesting is the sided catapult turtle and the extra deck Blood Mefist(not like that card is common to see around).

Now that all the major events besides worlds is over ,I have to start thinking about what I am to play next format in real life. I plan on playing the deck I feel most comfortable with.

Is that deck perhaps chaos dragons? well after all of it's consistent tops,if he ban list touches it,what could they hit....

future fusion?most would argue yes,it's broken,they draw it first turn and it's game.The amount of stories I and many others could tell "oh well I lost the die roll and he threw down future fusion...then....the rest was a blur..."

but what if they just did something about five-headed dragon?Would future fusion still be problematic.If they hit five-headed dragon,they would not be able to dump those 5 essential dragons.

But if they don't ban future fusion,are heroes a threat with it?some argue yes,some argue no.

and what about red-eyes?Now that we're getting gustav that rank 10 xyz,will the card be that much more devastating?is that what's going to push konami overboard to do something about it? Or is red-eyes as it is broken enough?able to special summon by removing 1 face-up dragon on the field.able to special summon 1 dragon except another one of itself from the grave or your hand.It is also the ultimae targe for lightpulsar.

regardless of how the deck will be affected,there are new archtypes surfacing.Will dragons even remain on the top of the rest? or will the new archtypes completely over shadow it. Also if that does happen and perhaps konami still hits dragon,will they just completely die at that point?

only time will tell. Continuing to test archtypes to prepare myself for this upcoming format.

Get your game on!
