Overview
In case you missed it, this week's Meta Weekly was the first Meta Weekly after the release of the Maximum Gustav Box! While we had some Metalfoes in the Top Cut, the Phantom Knight Menace held most of the representation. In the finals, we had tried-and-true
with his trusty Noble Knights up against 's PKs, and while each game was close, Trent's Knights came through with the 2-0 Victory!Interview with trentwik
How does it feel to win this Meta Weekly?
Always feels great to get a W, Feels a bit different than past events due to lower numbers, but there is still 9 rounds of play and a lot of familiar names.
What was your approach to the post-banlist Format?
My thoughts on the banlist just released was that nothing would be changed from a competitive standpoint.
How do you feel about Noble Knights in this meta?
I believe they fare very well, almost every single meta deck heavily favours and wants to go first, and the match will be dictated off of the coinflip. So with that in mind, it makes sense to consider Noble Knights as they have the best turn 1 in all of Duel Links, which is a 2-card combo consisting of 2 9-ofs.
Loading... also gets a huge buff this format with Warrior-based decks like Phantom Knights being the most-represented and other random Warrior decks like Satellarknights.
How did the day go for you? Any notable matchups?
A lot of Phantom Knight matchups and a lot of me going first :)
Anything you'd like to say about your decklist?
I believe this current list which I've had for a while is the best to bring in a tournament setting, Playing on ladder I would cut the 2 Loading... and run 27 cards
Do you have anything else you'd like to say about your Tournament Experience?
Always well done with good communication from DLM, with good streams from either
or .
Lastly, do you have any shout-outs you'd like to make?
Shoutout to all the girls who called me a loser in Highschool, look at me now!
And shoutout to me team Modern Empire for keeping my interest in Duel Links during these times with not many tournaments.
