| Ancient Gear | Casual |
A fusion focused deck. The fusion monsters in this archetype usually have high attack and disables the oppoenet from activating spell and traps during the damage phase. This deck operates on a blind second strategy, aiming to find a way to defeat the opponent in just one turn. The key cards in this deck are Ancient Gear Fortress and Ancient Gear Dark Golem. Dark Golem can help you search two card and discard 1, usually everyone will search AG Commander and AG Duel, or if they go first, You can search Geartown and AG Catapult.

| Armed Dragon | Casual |
Main monsters rely on keeping weaker monsters out on the field so they can level up to their more powerful forms, according to their effects or with the use of the card Level Up! Other Armed Dragon monsters, such as Dark Armed Dragon, have nothing to do with the archetype itself but rather work as tech options for other decks. | 0 | View Edit | |||

Rely on their LP to be higher than their opponents. Plant type monsters have 2 effects, 1 continuous effect that is active when you have higher life points and 1 that activates when you gain life points. Female members have extra deck equivalents (2 synchros and 1 link) and the archetype as a whole relies on/benefits from its 3 continuous traps and Aroma Jar. | 0 | View Edit | |||

A control deck that generates a stream of new monsters via Black Whirlwind, and messes with the opponent's plans via Icarus Attack and Kalut (an Honest-like hand trap that only affects Blackwings). Thanks to a few of them having Six Samurai-style self special summoning effects, they can end games quickly when they spot a weakness. | 3 | View Edit | |||
| Blue-Eyes | Rogue |
Focuses on using Blue-Eyes White Dragon and other Blue-Eyes for beatdown, card destruction and all kinds of Special Summons mechanics, except Pendulum and Link. Relies on Alternative Dragon, Trade-in and Melody of Awakening Dragon to prevent dead hands. | LIGHT, Dragon, Level 1, Level 8, Synchro, Fusion | 12 | View Edit | ||
| Branded Despia | Meta |
A primarily Fusion-based strategy focused around end phase recursion, now with added Synchro support. Typical endboards will have 1-2 quickplay spells (either a fusion spell or a targeted removal spell), a quick-effect non-targeting banish, and a Despia or Dogmatika special summon, as well as a way to get the original Fallen of Albaz to fusion with an opponent's monster. | Dragon, Level 8 Fusion, Level 8 Synchro, Light Spellcaster, Dark Dragon | 33 | 烙印 | 烙印 | View Edit |

| Crusadia | Casual |
Extremely consistent Archetype, focuses to Link climb into Equimax, for which you only need 2 Crusadia monsters, boost him with atk and preferably double battle dmg to push for a otk. Crusadia monster can special themselves into link zones and the Link Crusadia monsters effects activate when something is summoned to their linked zones. Traps and Spells are available to support and, like the Monsters, all searchable. Turn 2 OTK DMain Deck Monster able to Special Summon to the Zone link monster point to for Link Climbing | 3 | View Edit | |||
| Crystal Beast | Casual |
All Crystal Beast monster cards have the ability to be sent to the Spell & Trap Card Zone as a Continuous Spell Card after being destroyed by battle. Crystal Abundance is often used OTKs. Rainbow Dragon is seen occasionally but is much slower. Due to CBs becoming Spell Cards after destruction, Dimensional Fissure works great in this deck. | 0 | View Edit | |||

| Cyber Angel | Casual | Fairy Ritual Deck where the low level ritual monsters have effects when tributed, gives generic ritual support | 0 | View Edit | |||
| Cyber Dragon | Casual |
Cyber Dragon Zwei, Drei, Core, and Proto-Cyber Dragon all have an effect that treats them as if their name is Cyber Dragon. You can take advantage of this by using them to fuse for Cyber Twin and Cyber End or contact fuse into Chimeratech Barrier Dragon (which can use your opponent's machines) or Chimeratech Megafleet Dragon (which can use anything in either extra monster zone + 1 Cyber Dragon), basically being able to have more than three copies of Cyber Dragon. Using Machine Duplication on Cyber Dragon Core will also allow you to summon up to 2 copies of Cyber Dragon to the field from your deck. Limiter Removal, Power Bond and Solidarity can help boost your monster's ATK by a lot. However, they can be risky and leave you in a bad state if your opponent can stop you from attacking, so take caution in when you play them and if you can immediately recover. Cyber Dragon Nova helps with getting your Cyber Dragons out of the GY as well as being able to be used as an overlay unit into Cyber Dragon Infinity, which is an amazing control option in the deck, allowing you to attach one of your opponent's monsters to it as an overlay unit on your turn, and as a quick effect can detach one unit to negate and destroy any effects your opponent may use, forcing them to have to waste resources dealing with Infinity. Cyber Dragon Sieger is a good Link 2 as you can essentially double the ATK of any Cyber Dragon you control as a quick effect as the cost of Sieger not being able to deal damage that turn. Good support to use is Galaxy Soldier, which as a level 5 machine, can be used for most the monsters in your extra deck and searches itself after you special summon it, which I recommend using Cyber Dragon Herz for this effect, and also use Qliphort Genius which you can activate its effect using Machine Duplication | 2 | View Edit | |||
| Cyberdark | Casual |
Machine-type monsters that equip themselves with dragons to boost their attack and add protection. Original playstyle is slow and unreliable, later releases have turned this archetype into a sub-archetype for Cyber Dragons, making it more viable but taking away its unique character. | 1 | View Edit | |||
| D/D/D | Rogue |
- Relies on Dark Contract continuous spells that have powerful effects but inflict damage to you during your SP. Pendulum Summoning and the effects of the Extra Deck monsters are used to summon several big monsters quickly. Boss monsters use damage to your advantage. Lower level Fusion/Synchro monsters help SS higher level Fusion/Synchro/xyz monsters with lots of negates. - Common endboard include + + + + | Fiend | 8 | ＤＤＤ | DDD | View Edit |
| Danger | Casual |
Focuses on revealing the a Danger! monster in your hand and let the opponent choose 1 random card in your hand to discard. Triggers various effect based on if the discarded card was that Danger! monster or not, mimicing a monster search and capture process. If the guess missed the Danger! monster, they can usually special summon themselves from your hand and offer an extra effect. Some Danger! monsters can be a good beater and other offer disruption or draw power, hence it is often used as a support engine | 0 | View Edit | |||
| Dark Magician | Casual |
A control deck that relies heavily on backrow support. Most known for the "triangle" of a Dark Magician-named monster, Dark Magical Circle, and Eternal Soul; though this setup has long since been power-crept. The newest, and currently most reliable way to play the deck as of 2025 is Dragoon turbo, until the newest support batch arrives in the TCG. Key cards: Magician's Rod, Magicians' Souls, Illusion of Chaos, Soul Servant, Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon, Dark Magical Circle, Eternal Soul, Secrets of Dark Magic, The Eye of Timaeus. Honorable mentions: Dark Cavalry, Master of Chaos, Timaeus the United Dragon, Palladium Oracle Mahad Synergizes well with: Primite, Toy, Branded | DARK Spellcaster | 3 | View Edit | ||
| Dark World | Casual |
Monster effects trigger when discarded from the hand by card effects which the archetype's spells provide. Draw power through Dark World Dealings and the Field Spell The Gates of Dark World which both help to discard Dark World Monsters from hand. Messes with opponent's hand as well. Boss monster (Grapha) is easily summonable from the hand or GY by returning one Dark World monster from the field to the hand, offering another chance to discard it and get its effect. | 4 | View Edit | |||

| Dracoslayer | Rogue |
Received competetive potential after the DABL support. Focuses on cyclying through the 3 new dracoslayer pendulum monsters and the dracoslayer exra deck monsters to generate masssive resources for board building to end up on multiple negates and/or locks through abyss dweller or necrovalley. The majority of dracoslayer main deck monsters are lv4 and ed ones lvl 8 hence they can access a wide pool of generic lv/rank 4 and 8 ed monsters or link climbing. The dracoslayer synchro has a search effect that is not hard once per turn hence can be abused through multiple copies and is the main goal of resource gain. | 0 | 竜剣士 | 龙剑士 | View Edit | |

| Drytron | Rogue |
A Light Machine archtype that focuses on ritual and ritual support. Their ritual spell allows ritual summoning from the hand or gy by tributing monsters based on attack value, thus creating a unique way of ritual summoning bypassing level requirements. All drytron monsters cannot be normal summoned but rely on gy effects to special summon and lock the player into playing monsters that can only be special summoned. Their ritual spell can summon any ritual monster but requires light machines to function (drytron monsters) hence it is often used as a ritual support engine and is the current existing best semi-generic ritual support. They have seen good synergy with cyber angel, diviner, light fairies/heralds often ending on Herald of Ultimateness and negating everything.

| Libromancer |
A ritual focused archetype. All non-ritual libromancer monsters share the effect to ss themsleves by revealing a ritual monster in your hand and have a additional effect if they were ss, hence they have a decent swarm ability. Their field spell is a monster searcher and enables infinite in-archetype ritual summoning as long as materials are fullfiled. The deck has fair consistency but their in-archetype ritual monsters are not very good and don't see much play except Doom Broker. Because doom broker is a lv6 ritual it has a good synergy with the diviner-benten engine and has some synergy with nekroz and Mikanko. Though they have some recycling methods, they still share the pain of all ritual archetypes. The deck is more used as a ritual hybrid engine to bring out materials | 0 | View Edit | ||||

| War Rock | Casual |
Deck revolving around the Battle phase thus wants almost always to go second. Plays a lot of Board Breakers. You shouldn't underestimate the fact, that the effects of the monsters apply after damage calculation. So your opponent can't react with cards like Ash Blossom to the searches. | Warrior, Rock Type Effect Monsters | 6 | View Edit | ||

Ice + Glass to special summon any lv7 synchro, then lv7 synchro + Snow bell to summon Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon = 1x monster effect negation + destroy, battle advantage against any lv5+ monster and immunity against effect destruction. | 0 | View Edit | |||

| Worm | Casual |
The main antagonists of the Duel Terminal set of cards. They are a flip deck that in pure form is rather weak as it possesses little support but has a few strong plays that can be worked into other decks such as Xex and Yagan's effects. There are 26 Worm monsters each name starting with a different letter. the final is the decks finisher, Worm Zero, which is a Fusion made of any number of worms that gains both attack and effects from adding more worms to the mix. in the storyline the worms were only defeated by a united effort by the X-Sabers, Mist Valley, Ice Barriers, and Flamvell, using their secret weapons the Allies of Justice which were enhanced using Genex technology. The Worms weren't hard to kill but there were a lot of them. | 0 | View Edit | |||

Control. Uses Dark Soul & Emmersblade to fetch combo pieces for making level 5-9 Synchro plays. Gottoms' Emergency Call and Faultroll create strong fields that can often OTK, and easy access to XX-Saber Hyunlei makes it quite resilient against floodgate side deck cards. | 0 | View Edit | |||

- Every main deck Yummy monster with 1 discard can start the combo, leaving a lot of rooms for hand trap and other engines. - Link monster - Despite being a Synchro archetype, non of the Main Deck monsters are Tuner. Because they have an unique mechanic, where all Yummy Synchro monsters (Level 2) can treat any Link-1 Link monster you control as Level 1 Tuner. And this isn't exclusive to their own Link monster, they can treat literally ANY LINK-1 MONSTERS as Level 1 Tuner, so engines that allows you to bring out both a Link-1 and Level 1 monster to your field without locking you can be used in this Deck. - Target for Synchro Summon: - All Yummy Synchro monster are Level 2 Tuner and shares the same Quick Effect of Special Summoning up to 2 Yummy monsters from their GY by returning themselves to the Extra Deck. This is their main way to interrupt the opponent's plays, and dodge targeting effect in the mean time. - Then when SS by Synchro monster's effect, Yummy main deck monster can disrupt opponent . Cooky will destroy 1 monster your opponent controls if it was Special Summoned by the effect of a Yummy Synchro monster, and Lollipo on Summon will shuffle 1 card from your opponent's GY back to your Deck or banish it if it was Special Summoned by the effect of a Yummy Synchro monster - Thanks to - Field Spell | Synchro, Level 2, LIGHT, Beast, Link | 15 | ヤミー | 黯蜜 | View Edit |
