Based on the top-finishing decks of 2 in-person events over the last 89 days (60 decks), from TCGplayer's deck database. Only top finishes are published, so shares are shares of top finishes, not of every player. Most played deck: Elfnote Power Patron, 18% of top finishes.
Top decks
Share of top finishes for each deck over the whole window (too few events to compare halves). Cost of core cards adds up the cheapest printing of every card at least half the lists play, at the usual number of copies ("+" when a card has no TCGplayer match). Typical full deck is the median TCGplayer market price of the whole list as published.

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.
