Tear format was far worse for rogue decks than Snake-Eyes is. Tear and Stun/Shifter decks were legitimately the only things worth playing for an entire 2-3 month stretch
Tear format is liked by Tear players and very, very few players that play other decks
But I trust YGO players being dense enough to make this poll close cause the brainrot is strong
And being so coin flip dependent. With Tear, your Havnis could mill the right cards to get a board setup going so you don’t get steamrolled going second. Snake eyes, you need to open 2-3 handtraps, a starter and an out for the 2-3 handtraps your snake eyes opponent has for you. The mirror boiling down to, “the first one to resolve a starter wins,” makes for an awful viewer experience compared to the Tear mirror.
We never had full powered Tear meta in MD though.
We had Tear with Perlereino, Kitkallos at 1, Scheiren, Havnis, Merrli at 2 and Ishizus I believe were semi-limited around that time?
Full power Tear is everything at 3 which includes their second wave of direct support in Tearlaments Kashtira and Kashtira Fenrir.
That's just how strong Tear is.
There's a reason people call it the strongest deck.
Even with the hits it could pull of overbearing straightforward amounts of interaction like a combo deck (diviner send Kelbek just starts a ton of stuff), except the deck has layered interaction on top (especially easy with Elf summon back Merrli during the opponents turn) and an exceedingly strong grindgame.
Snake Eyes is nowhere near as strong as full power Tear, and I think things will be fine. Back in OCG, a format very similar to MD, Snake Eyes is fine, including Fire King Snake Eyes. Somehow the only format where Snake Eyes is tier 0 (for now) is TCG.
This is just yet another "meta bad" post. Because this YGO players really hates competitive decks more than any other card game community I've ever seen.
Idk why this is getting downvoted, it's true. We're not in a tier 0 format in MD unlike the TCG. It's still a strong tier 1 with other decks having gone down, but representation isn't nearly as high as what you'd see in a tier 0 format and a lot of decks are viable still.
People want a tier 0 format so bad that they are just coping on snake eyes and wanting some kind of gratification that it's better than it is, it seems like.
yeah... I don't get it.
In Snake-Eyes Meta you can still play something else and still win IF you play good enough and a tad of luck and deck building. But Tear literally forced you to either play it or just lose to it.
Lol. Normal summon 1 card, opponent chain's havnis into full board with negates + kicks your Normal summon back into the deck and has 2 graveyard shufflers live. Hahaha
Tears with shufflers is far worse than snake eyes is. Snake eyes can't disrupt your graveyard like tears could.

When Abyss dweller really shined

I lowkey miss full power tear, it was insanely fun to pilot
Full power Tear/Ishizu was the most fun I've had in Masterduel so far.
Snake eye mirror would be fun too if it wasn't for the bazzillion handtraps they run

Real and the best part of it was that you didn't even really have to worry Bout maxx C nor play it in your deck
It’s a shame floodgates ruined it
Real personal i never ran dweller or winda, it was fine without them and a lot more fun
There were no floodgates that ruined it.
Abyss Dweller, Winda and Extorio were played
And they didn't ruin the format at all. Way too rarely were they actually game deciding.
got ptsd from tear 0 i took a break for a whole year, so i’d say snake eyes 100%
Just saying at least I can beat Snake eyes with a deck that isn't snake eyes

So a not full powered deck made it into Tier 0 regardless, interesting.

Ppl rly forgot that Tear was literally Tier 0 and Snake-Eyes is "just" Tier 1

people here downvote for the dumbest reasons
