Firstly, WGP stands for world Grand Prix where Cardfighters from all around the world compete for the title of world champion. a title that only one lucky person can obtain every year. The reason why so many people play competitive is to achieve this title atleast once. So There are two different tournaments where one is using japanese cards and the other is using english cards. Obviously the meta gap between these two languages are so huge so there is no point in discussing that now. I will just talk about what to expect for the upcoming WGP in Singapore for both languages. Lets start with japanese. The first thing that will come into anybody's mind will be Link joker. This clan has the almighty Chaos breaker Dragon which is now spoiling the whole game with its destructive effect. Combining Him and Infinte Zero Dragon almost assures you victory as opp will be helpless for the next turn and will be left with no rear guards while you refill your hand. Even in japan, Chaos breaker dragon is dominating the meta game and is the most played deck over there. So expect yourself to face link joker atleast every other match. Next in line is Revengers. This deck is one of the decks that can counter Link joker's strategy by rushing early then using Raging form's limit break even before The link joker player can use his limit break. By doing so, they will get to attack twice and at the same time clear their own Rear guards leaving nothing for their opponent's to lock. At the very best they will be able to lock 1 or 2 cards. even if they do lock 2 cards, The Revenger player can just use raging form's limit break again and seal the game Because all the drawing happens only at the end phase and hence the opponent has to guard with what he is left in his hand. So expect yourself to revengers atleast every other 2 rounds when you are playing out there. Next is the all powerful Aqua Force. Its new card, Tetra Drive dragon is so powerful that it can finish the opp off when they are at just 2 damage when combined with Trance core dragon. Trance core forces the opponent to drop one card each time they guard the vanguard or else you will be going critical. effectively, your opponent has to have a minimum of 6 cards just to guard the Vanguard's double attack. This deck has the ability to rush the crap out of opponent early game and finish with tetra drive later on. I have seen Link joker decks loose to this deck in a matter of 4 turns. and even if the opponent does a triangle lock against them, they still have their secret weapon. It shall not be revealed for confidential purposes. So you will be seeing alot of this during the tournament day as it counters link joker very well. So mainly, you will see these few decks in the top tables. I might be wrong cause decks like Eradicators and liberators might have chance too. or even spikebrothers? Also take in mind that there will be the special rule for japanese WGP where there will be one deck from every nation in the top 8 so all decks will have a chance. Those that i stated are only for those aiming to get into top 2 position.
Next we will proceed to the eng WGP. This is kinda like how the japanese meta was before break rides were out, where dote was dominating everywhere. You will see alot of DOTE and vermillion. you will also see alot of majesty, Aquaforce and even Nova due to them topping recently. Dont forget souless ott and Bermuda triangle as its the only deck with Break ride in the eng meta as of now. Im sure glad BT10 is not out in time for WGP. Anyway there is nothing much to talk about the eng format as its something that all japanese players have already experienced before. my team will be playing both the tournaments and will hope to top atleast one of them. So good luck to all who are participating in WGP!!!
