Over the past year-ish, I've haven't really spent time on YuGiOh at all. I have spent all of my TCG funds on my competitive MtG life, but recently I have gotten back into Yugioh a bit, not competitively, but still, I want to know whats happend over the year. What cards are now staples? What decks have risen and whats fallen?

at the minute monarch decks seam to be on the increase (mainly all except grandmarg) and now cyber dragon x3 have become staples and if you are using alot of tributes treeborn frog is a staple, strike ninja is also a quite competitive deck as well as rush/searcher sort of thing
