Metagame is the way the game is currently played in a given area. Specifically, when players talk about the metagame (or 'meta', for short), they talk about which Deck styles and strategies are the most dominant in their area of play; for instance, a metagame, cards that are played the most often or used by the most people, it also can mean the cards that are available in that area (through local-leagues or casual trade circles), and the current state of the Semi-Limited/Limited/Forbidden lists (If the area plays by the Traditional or Advanced Format). Typically, as metagame decks become more common, Anti-Meta decks appear in order to counter them. The current most common Anti-Meta decks include Miracle Gemini.

Currently, the more commonly used decks are "Agents", "X-Saber", "Gishki", "Dark Magician", "Gravekeeper's", "Tengu Synchro", "Chaos", "Dark World" and "Six Samurai" Decks. Other notable Decks include "Disaster Dragon", "Lightsworn", "Gladiator Beasts, "T.G.", "Dragunities", "Blackwings", "Karakuri", "Frognarchs", "Malefic" "Synchrons" and "Plants".
