Top Player Council Thoughts
As we look forward to MCS XVI in two weeks, the meta remains fairly stable but now with the addition of a new competitive deck thanks to the latest event reward, Loading... . This event is only live for a few more days, and any competitive player that does not farm for a complete set of Survival's End will likely regret it.
Tier 1
Koa'ki Meiru and Vampires remain in Tier 1. Koa'ki is still the king of the meta, sitting atop the "triangle" with Ancient Gears and Buster Blader, while Vampires are off to the side and doing well against most decks but getting hard-countered by the Koa'ki players using Sealed Tombs .

Koaki Meiru remain in Tier 1 due to sheer consistency and brute strength. Decks that have the ability to easily OTK while also having built-in negates are usually going to be able to hold their spot in Tier 1 until they get hit by a banlist.
Vampires hold their spot at Tier 1 as they continue stay adaptable to the meta while also abusing easy access to Loading... through KaibaCorp Bling . Loading... as a tech option has done a lot to help this deck survive through OTKs long enough to deliver its own sacky follow up.

Vampires' access to Enemy Controller is a huge benefit, allowing it to keep up with the monster that is Koa'ki Meiru.
Tier 2
Ancient Gears and Buster Blader remain in Tier 2 as perhaps the only other decks that can keep up in the Koa'ki Meiru meta.
