Meta wise, not much has happenend in the last few days. Bujins still have a soft spot in my heart, but they will have a tough time competing in the next meta. Lightsworns, to my huge distaste, will be recieving great support in the coming months, and their main boss monster, Judgment Dragon, is the thing of nightmares for Bujins. It has the ability to destroy ALL cards on the feild, and there is no protection from that in a Bujin deck. I believe there were a plethora of other decks that more desperately needed support, like Toons and Crystal Beasts. It's a dissapointment really, but that's just how the game is sometimes. Just like with the ban list.
Indeed, Dragon Rulers are becoming a huge nuisance on DN as well About 40% of the decks I run into are Dragon Rulers. And even though my Bujins don't have a terrible match-up against them, it still irratiates me that people would resort to using such skill-less decks, especially when they have a high rating -- It's almost guranteed they are using Dragons.
Oh, and I'm not sure if I've mentioned this before, but Noble Knights are getting some great support as well. Their support is so good, that the deck may actually have a chance of becoming Meta next format. However, there is a part of me that cringes at the sight of all the support they are getting. For one thing, many of the cards you have to run only come in Secret Rare, which often propels the card to 50+$ if the card is really good. Also, Noble Knights are getting support from the rulings themselves, and using them to their advantage. But in the end, I would much rather see Noble Knights becoming #1 in the Meta than Dragon Rulers or Prophecy. The deck is not broken from what I've seen, but is preety damn good when run correctly.
On a last note, it's always nice to note all the past decks of the format that were the best in the Meta: Macro Rabbit, Inzektors, Tele-Dad, T.G Agents, Six Samurai, X-Sabers, Chaos Dragons, and tons more. These decks, at their respective times, we're all considered equally as broken as Dragon Rulers, and it makes one think.... Which deck really was the most broken deck ever? What was the most broken card ever? "Tour Guide from the Underworld" maybe? She's still at 2 but has been severely neatured by the ban of Sangan last year, and the fall of the best decks she was used in. I personally think "Dragged Down into the Grave" is the most annoying and broken card at 3 right now, and I would not care one bit if it went straight to banned. But that's just me.
