Master Duel Meta Report: The Synchronized Cosmos

The Synchronized Cosmos was last month's set release in Master Duel, bringing with it the popular if weak Ghoti archetype as well as some welcome additions to Synchron and Stardust decks. Loading... , a card that was fearmongered by many due to its easy Link Material, also released, and accomplished the same thing it did in paper formats: virtually nothing. The arrival of Naturia support has allowed the deck to be playable, though it seems players have been unwilling or unable to bring the deck any representation on a competitive level.

After the game-warping Selection Pack Blessings of Nature it was impossible for any follow up act to make a splash even slightly as big, and this rang true with The Synchonized Cosmos. With zero meta relevant cards outside of Loading... , competitive players are likely to skip this pack.

Due to the format being completely unchanged with not much new going on in the tournament scene, this article will be a comparatively shorter one.


Tearlaments

Tearlaments is still to no surprise the most powerful deck in the Master Duel meta. since release, Tearlaments has emerged as the undisputed dominant force in the Master Duel meta, revolutionizing the casual and competitive landscape. With its seemingly unyielding gameplay and myriad of powerful effects on every card, Tearlaments has proven to be an unstoppable force, reshaping the way the game is played at the all levels of play.

With the upcoming Forbidden and Limited List that restricts the usage of the Ishizu engine, the power level of the deck will drop, though this combined with the release of Bystials, is extremely unlikely to remove the deck from the winner's podium.

Spright

Spright continues to be a naturally powerful deck that struggles against the top dog when not able to access cards like Loading... . While certainly not a guaranteed loss against Tearlaments decks, the deck often cannot keep up, despite being able to defeat virtually everything else in the meta. Spright variants have fallen off massively since released with the overwhelming majority of players on pure lists.
