The blackwargreymon x, wargreymon, gaiomon deck is really 3 different decks that slide into each other in the way YGO decks tend to with variants. BWGX is a tamer hate deck, Raid is more focused on field control and using tamers, and Gaio is the hyper aggressive one being able to pop 4-5 security its second turn and focusing on dedigivolutions.

[@netherhigal]

As a Mastemon and Jesmon main at locals i take this list as a personal attack! But also yeah some more support would be nice. at least Jesmon has some neat upgrades from bt-13 to look forward to. Good content love to see it :)

[@SC2Anski]

Alliance is super interesting deck. I still think its not completely figured out at this point. Playing 2 Mother D-Reaper as eggs to fuel alliance and to potentially eat opposing Raid swings is super cool. Also Cherubimons revive effect is super interesting as it carries over if you evolve into a level 7 on the same turn and lasts until end of opponent's turn. So if you got the memory you can evo into shinegreymon: ruin mode. One other tech I've seen the deck run is Ordinemon. Doesn't make it tier 1 or anything, but I think it can be a good deck to spike known metagame like LGS if tuned correctly.

[@SlacksYT]

Disappointed to not see ChaosGallant mentioned in the video! 😢

[@GuyInHisOwnWorld]

Man, I've been out of the game for a few months. Really appreciate this meta list.

[@TonyPino18]

Blue Flair absolutely should be tier 1. It has a great match up with the 4 decks in tier 1 that you currently listed.

[@unknownnerd-or9fd]

The Machinedramon matchup is still ass. The other 3 are fine.

[@TonyPino18]

@@unknownnerd-or9fd not really. The new MetalGreymon removes blocker from the source. Granted if they get a couple of Analogman on board then the matchup is hard. I’ve had no problems against Machindramon so far.

[@bradford2839]

Honestly Mirage is not a T3 deck at all, just no one runs it aggressively, they try to play a control game which is not the way to play it now. With the Offensive plug in/Nicolai combo you are swinging 4 checks, that is not even with Thomas involved. that is 6 checks with jamming... then blitz for game, new Zeed Gaur answers any Level 7 and controls the board. And Mirage in itself gives so much memory manipulation with its all turns effect that if your opponent has any "draw" effects often times their turn just ends. Plus the BT 11 support bounces all floodgates. Honestly no one is playing this much but the deck owns and is very consistent (mind this is without having the full support it will get in BT13)

[@nehuenmutiozabal6339]

Hope the next set gives Jesmon the pacing it needs to climb back up, is weird because from testing the deck isn't bad at all the problem is that now the current meta has more ways to get rid off him more easely

[@Jaiden-100]

Ay yo what that kashtira arise-heart doing there in the thumbnail?

[@benjaminwiseman6567]

Blue Flare is absolutely Tier 1 now. It got new everything for digi-crossing, and it has answers for just about every deck. Jesmon will always be at least Tier 2. It was Tier 1 just a set or two ago, and it still is competitive against the Tier 1.5 and Tier 1 decks.

[@StellaEFZ]

Jesmon? get with the times dude, it hasn't been competitive in a while. It WILL become good again with BT13 though As for BF, no, it's T2, Jamming is good but it doesn't solve the deck's problem with removing things from the field, plus the counter to it is literally just building one stack, which most good decks do with ease

[@benjaminwiseman6567]

@@StellaEFZ Jesmon wins in 2 turns once it gets to Level 6 and creates wide boards with protections. It absolutely is Tier 2 with a good pilot. Blue Flare doesn't need removal. It benefits from the opponent using multiple bodies and stunning them. Singles stack that don't OTK Blue Flare get their sources stripped or get sent back to hand.

[@StellaEFZ]

@@benjaminwiseman6567 Sending back to hand is removal... Do you even play the deck? And how long does it take for Jes to get to level 6? And how consistent is it? How does Jes deal with everyone else? If a deck needs a good pilot to be even playable it's not T2 Not even mentioning needing TWO turns after getting to level 6 where other T2 decks just... Win in the turn they get to 6 or the next one

[@benjaminwiseman6567]

@@StellaEFZ The Cyberdramon package can send a Level 4 back to hand, but you need an option card for removal otherwise. Even the Tier 1 decks don't OTK anymore, so I'm not sure what you mean. Jesmon at least gives you extra bodies. I think of the deck as being similar to Bloomlordmon in terms of strategy, a bit slower, but with more strength and protection. If you feel Bloomlordmon is at least Tier 2, which you should, then Jesmon must be up there as well.

[@StellaEFZ]

@@benjaminwiseman6567 Bloomlord is T2 because it can control the field in way better ways than Jes could ever dream of, and is much more consistent at that

[@lylam84936]

I get that it’s not your personal made list so I won’t complain about them not being there, but what are your thoughts on Imperialdramon and Mastemon?

[@Vanon35435]

My personal opinion very low, Mastemon just doesn't work the meta is way faster and Mirei ( as much i love her in games and such) is just not a good tamer. Imperial as the same problem of being kinda fast at the start but one removal and your basically dead, Red Hybrid is just faster and can recover better than imperial.

[@straightXjessedge]

Man, Imperial not even getting tiered. I don't blame you though, it hasn't really been doing much even with the support it got in bt12

[@UpgradeBob]

Just the new tamer alone helped BF out so much think you slpet on that a bit.

[@thunderhogTH]

Might be cope but id at least put blue flare in like mid 1.5 The decks got pretty good matchups against most of the meta right now if built right. They might have only gotten a few peices, but the new tamer does wonders in making metal greys consistant, and do a really good job at rushing down while forcing your opponent to not go wide on board. At worst the deck loses if machinedra gets 2 analogs on board or if BWG destroys your tamers twice in a row without being able to replace em.

[@oreox1000]

Have you tried Quartzmon?

[@Zen_Corner]

I love your videos ToV but please don't use MedievalGallantmon to represent the deck. The card just wasn't meant for it. Some of the other cards are good though. Idk what tier it belongs to but EX4 guilmon lets you use warp takato without saving a guilmon in breeding and blackgrowlmon is a major consistency boost as you can grab your entire line from the trash twice including most noticeably Crimson Mode I'm looking forward to see more deck profiles from you though

[@TasteOfVictory]

I didn't make the tierlist template it's just what it had. I wouldn't have used it either. I could've talked more about the other cards but they don't push Gallant higher than upper tier 2 so I didn't think there was much more to discuss. Better to save that to indepth on a deck profile.

[@Zen_Corner]

@@TasteOfVictory Ah okay. Maybe you could try to make your own template (or edit one if possible) specially to make sure you don't miss anything you'd like to talk about, but agree that all of the decks deserve a better explanation in a separate video and I'm excited to see it

[@TasteOfVictory]

@Zen_Corner I normally do make my own for these videos but I mentioned somewhere at the half point of the video I had a small window to make this vid between family obligations last week and Pokemon NAIC prep this weekend lol. Everything should be back to normal next set.

[@Hulavuta]

the new Gaiomon is kind of more used in an OTK style, not so much thrown in with old WarGrey decks.

[@samanderson1188]

I would argue Blue Flare and Sec Con are at least Tier 1.5 after EX4 support (Shadowseraphi being a strong top end for Sec Con).

[@shadowjeric]

MirageGaogamon: Burst Mode is better top end for sure.

[@Yamiperlife]

I'd place hunters more in the bottom of tier 1. It is good against Machinedra, but not better than beelze and wargrey... In my experience (I play Beelze and Hunters). Also, hunters is countered by just playing just one big Digimon tower, nothing else

[@crossx4974]

I disagree with shinegreymon being tier 2 because of the ruinmode decks like red hybrid alphamon hunters and beelzemon didnt had any outs. After being floot gated.

[@rodrigocoronado5248]

LOL Blue Flare Tier 2, it has been topping consistently for the last expsnsions and people still put it in lower tiers. Blue Flare is currently tier 1.5 in Japan with all the other broken decks they have now. What a load of nonsense

[@derpyachoque]

Naw, what’s kashtira doing in a digimon tier list?

[@nathanielsanchez5700]

I got unreasonably happy that machinedramon made it to tier 1

[@badwulfe9801]

Darkknightmon is tier 3 but tier 2 is mostly jokes? Hmmm

[@dajhier1]

This deck consistently gets slept on which is fine by me I'll keep stealing wins on unsuspecting tier 1 decks at locals

[@TheRedfire21]

Seccon has free wins vs everything but hunters what are you on about putting it in tier 2?

[@zeekcalzaya]

Red hybrid eats Sec con so fast though.

[@TheRedfire21]

@@zeekcalzaya its pretty easy to know when to Venus vs red hybrid, after that the game is almost done.

[@digislots862]

idn putting blue flare bottm tier 2 is eadly 1,5 contender hunter does nothing if wargery and machinedramon plays right i played over 300 hunter games i know what im talking xD
