Awaiting for new META to reform

Hey, guys! Today I will discuss some of the impact of the release of Cosmo Blazer(CBLZ) in OCG. Since the release of this booster, Fire Fist started become one of the main attraction for OCG players and this booster do released a lot of Fire attribute monsters or support cards.

Fire Fist is quite similar with Mermail Atlanteans and basically this deck is a promo deck oriented deck. The reason I say so is due to the deck requires a lot of promo cards and without those promo cards, this deck tempo will be slow and not easy to gain hand advantage. As a result, promo cards are essential in this deck. Therefore, more promo = Deck Price Expensive/Imba.

Anyway, players will still play the deck although it is pricey. Current tier 1 decks consists of Mermail variant, Wind-Up, HERO, TGU Rabbit, Gadget/Karakuri variant and Fire Fist had just join the Meta call not long ago. I didn't grouped former top decks(Hieratic, Inzektor and Chaos Dragon) under the category of tier 1 due to the significant number of play less than the current tier 1.

Therefore, I more prefer to group them under tier 1.5. For tier 2 decks, it is consists of Angel variant, Dark World, Six Samurai, Junk Doppel/its variant and etc. Soon Heraldic Beast will join tier 2 and will rise up from there after March 2013. Apart from that, SD24 - Assault of the Flame King is a nice deck and I think it will join tier 1 after 2 months of its official released.

As usual, I will go with my ruling post again. This time I will share the latest ruling of cards that have released in Cosmo Blazer(CBLZ). For those whose don't know the effect of the card, you can search it at Yugioh Wikia(http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page).
