About this data
- Limitless TCG (play.limitlesstcg.com): online tournaments with published decklists for Pokémon, One Piece, Digimon and Gundam. Decks are named by Limitless (Pokémon) or by their leader.
- Magic Online (mtgo.com, Wizards of the Coast): every decklist from the Standard, Pioneer, Modern, Legacy and Pauper Challenges.
- TCGplayer's deck database: top finishes at in-person events for Yu-Gi-Oh!, Disney Lorcana and others, with the deck names TCGplayer gives them.
- "Decks playing it" is the share of decklists with at least one copy of a card; the change compares the last two weeks with the two before. Many cards are printed more than once; prices are TCGplayer market prices for the cheapest version (what players buy) and the priciest one (what collectors chase).
- Online and published top decks are a sample of the competitive scene, not every local event.
