Trend of Decks from the result of Asian Championship 2011 Finals

Hey, guys! Last week I have updated the result of Asian Championship 2011 Finals in Malaysia and today I will continue to share my observation for the deck types which appeared in this tournament. In Asia(exclude Japan), most of the promo cards(Shueisha Magazines and comics), Duel Terminal cards and also cards others than booster are forbid to be play in the official tournament. Thus, lot of the powerful cards such as Gorz the Emissary of Darkness, Thunder King Rai-Oh, Dark End Dragon, Mist Wurm, Tech Genus Hyper Librarian and etc were not seen in any of these decks.

Basically, the trends of deck is quite variety. Majority of the deck types are Six Samurai, Machina Karakuri(including archtype), Blackwing and Fairy decks. Next is OCG Gravekeeper, Sin Zombie, Gladiator Beast, Psychic OTK, Quickdraw Junk Doppel, Lightsworn, Junk Synchron and others. As I can say, the major trends deck gained more advantages in this championship with the applied of chaos battle mode. Thus, I saw a lot of main stream decks occurred in the Malaysia quarter final.

In this tournament, I find a deck which I think is quite interesting to share with you guys. This deck is owned by the Yu-Gi-Oh! Taiwan 2011 Champion, Liu Hsiao Wei's and it is a Fairy deck. I think it is quite interesting due to it is a bit differ with the Japanese style Fairy deck that we had saw for a long time. It is a far more structure deck based and emphasize on the attack power of Fairy monster. Moreover, it does not depend on the super draw engine. With the aid of The Agent of Miracle - Jupiter in the Fairy deck, they can kill almost all the synchro monsters without synchro summoning by using this cards. Below is the Taiwanese Fairy deck list:
