| Tier3 | [Solid Decks] Solid decks that have slightly less deck power compared to Tier 1 and Tier 2 decks, but each has its own strengths and can compete to some extent in the meta. |
| Tier4 | [Developing Decks] Decks that are few in number due to reasons like insufficient deck power or unrefined builds, but still have a certain presence. |
| Tier4 | [Lower-Tier Decks] Decks that are significantly outclassed by other decks in the current card pool. They are waiting for new card additions or card adjustments for a chance to break into the higher tiers. |
