Welcome to our One Piece Card Game Meta Tier List for OP11 - A Fist of Divine Speed!
For the very first time, players in the West are stepping into a truly unique One Piece Card Game format, one that sets it apart from its Eastern counterparts. Not only has the West received the highly anticipated OP11 set, but they also simultaneously gained access to Starter Decks 23 through 28!
Historically, the East's OP11 meta was largely defined by the overwhelming presence of various Monkey D. Luffy leaders, with OP05-002-belo-betty standing as the sole non-Luffy deck consistently at the top. While OP11-040-monkeydluffy still looks to be the undeniable de facto leader of this fresh format, the powerful injection of these new Starter Decks has undoubtedly begun to reshape the competitive landscape for all other Luffy archetypes that previously dominated. Ready to see where everything stands? Let's dive in!
Tier Explanation
This tier list analyzes the top decks in the current metagame, based on tournament results, online ranked stats, and my expert evaluation. We've categorized archetypes into four tiers by relevance, from strongest to weakest within each tier. Winning decklists and top-performing ranked builds inform these rankings.
Tier 1: These are the meta's top contenders, consistently topping events and boasting the highest ranked win rates. For the best chance at consistent tournament success, these are your go-to decks.
Tier 2: These are strong decks capable of securing tournament wins and high ranks. While not as consistently dominant as Tier 1, success often hinges on strong piloting, matchup knowledge, and potentially a favorable meta or some luck for consistent top finishes.
Tier 3: These decks remain relevant in the meta and can achieve occasional wins, even against higher tiers. However, their overall consistency is lower, making significant tournament success less likely without specific advantages or innovative play.
Dark Horse: Decks in this tier show high win rates in their limited appearances, indicating strong potential. However, they lack significant play in tournaments or ranked, making their overall viability uncertain. Watch these for potential meta breakthroughs.
Tier 1
Blue Purple Monkey D. Luffy
Featured Decklist Winrate: 67.3% over 52 games
Overall Winrate (Ranked Sim): 50.6% over 11000+ games
Favored Matchups: Green Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Green Jewelry Bonney
Unfavored Matchups: Red Yellow Bello Betty, Blue Buggy, Purple Luffy
No surprises here: OP11-040-monkeydluffy stands as the most played deck in the current format, a position it has held with remarkable consistency in the Eastern meta right up until today. It's only natural, then, that it asserts itself as the formidable deck to beat in the West as well. What truly sets this leader apart is its ability to maintain a breakeven win rate despite its overwhelming play rate, a powerful testament to its inherent strength and adaptability. For skilled pilots, the deck's potential truly shines, with this week's featured list boasting an impressive 67.3% win rate, demonstrating just how far mastery can push this archetype.
Delving into this week's standout list reveals some intriguing choices, notably the inclusion of OP01-073-donquixote-doflamingo and OP01-070-dracule-mihawk. While OP01-073-donquixote-doflamingo has recently gained traction in the Eastern meta as an answer to OP12-020-roronoa-zoro, its surprising success on the Western ladder suggests its utility extends beyond that specific matchup, proving its versatility in a different competitive environment.
Red Yellow Belo Betty
Featured Decklist Winrate: 66.7% over 54 games
Overall Winrate (Ranked Sim): 54% over 4500+ games
Favored Matchups: Blue Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Green Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Red Green Smoker
Unfavored Matchups: Black Marshall D. Teach, Green Jewelry Bonney
Emerging as the ultimate aggro force, OP05-002-belo-betty firmly secures her spot in Tier 1! This leader was the sole non-Luffy deck to reach Tier 1 status in the East's OP11 format, and her formidable dominance has seamlessly translated to the West. Notably favored against the prevalent Purple Luffy archetypes, she boasts the highest win rate among all ladder decks, all while maintaining one of the highest play rates – a truly impressive feat.
This week's featured list for Betty is largely standard, save for the intriguing inclusion of OP05-018-emporio-energy-hormone. This is likely a strategic choice aimed at surprising opponents in the online simulator, though it's debatable how effectively this kind of "gimmick" would translate to a competitive tabletop setting. Regardless, it certainly makes for a fun and unexpected tech!
Red Green Smoker
Featured Decklist Winrate: 68.9% over 103 games
Overall Winrate (Ranked Sim): 53.4% over 3400+ games
Favored Matchups: Green Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Black Marshall D. Teach, Green Jewelry Bonney
Unfavored Matchups: Red Yellow Belo Betty, Red Roronoa Zoro
Breaking into Tier 1 as a true "Western special," OP10-001-smoker is undeniably the surprise inclusion of this format! Statistics reveal a highly favorable position for this archetype against the majority of the Western OP11 meta, showing that it primarily struggles only against aggressive Red decks, while maintaining an even or favored win rate against everything else. This robust performance solidifies its unexpected, yet well-deserved, top-tier status.
This week's featured OP10-001-smoker decklist offers some particularly intriguing inclusions, such as OP11-008-doll, OP11-012-franky, and OP11-015-mocha. While these cards might not typically appear in standard OP10-001-smoker builds, their undeniable success speaks for itself; with this list boasting an almost 70% win rate, its effectiveness in the hands of its pilot is clearly evident. Notably, OP11-012-franky stands out as a brilliant choice, providing an excellent counter to a meta heavily influenced by the presence of OP09-078-gum-gum-giant.
Tier 2
Green Purple Monkey D. Luffy
Featured Decklist Winrate: 62.3% over 77 games
Overall Winrate (Ranked Sim): 49.4% over 6400+ games
Favored Matchups: Black Marshall D. Teach, Blue Buggy
Unfavored Matchups: Blue Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Red Yellow Belo Betty, Red Green Smoker, Green Jewelry Bonney
Despite its previous Tier 1 dominance in the EB02 format, EB02-010-monkeydluffy has experienced a noticeable dip in performance, largely due to a challenging array of matchups within the current OP11 meta. While it is currently struggling to maintain an overall positive win rate, its inherent sheer power and consistency are undeniable. For these reasons, this archetype still warrants a high placement in this tier list, as it's believed that skilled pilots will undoubtedly continue to find significant success with EB02-010-monkeydluffy.
This week's featured decklist for the leader remains largely standard, with OP05-077-gamma-knife and OP08-036-electrical-luna filling its crucial tech slots.
Purple Monkey D. Luffy
Featured Decklist Winrate: 61.8% over 68 games
Overall Winrate (Ranked Sim): 51.1% over 2500+ games
Favored Matchups: Blue Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Black Marshall D. Teach, Blue Buggy
Unfavored Matchups: Red Yellow Belo Betty, Red Green Smoker, Green Jewelry Bonney
The classic OP05-060-monkeydluffy makes a truly glorious return in OP11! This beloved leader is rejuvenated by the introduction of a powerful new boss card, OP11-067-charlotte-katakuri, propelling it back into the competitive spotlight. One of its most appealing attributes is a surprisingly strong matchup against the format's current BDIF (OP11-040-monkeydluffy), as it uniquely demonstrates the ability to keep pace with its rapid DON!! ramping strategies.
However, a notable weakness observed in playing against this deck is its potential inconsistency in games where early copies of OP11-067-charlotte-katakuri prove elusive.
Red Roronoa Zoro
Featured Decklist Winrate: 59.8% 112 games
Overall Winrate (Ranked Sim): 54.8% over 1500+ games
Favored Matchups: Green Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Red Yellow Belo Betty, Red Green Smoker
Unfavored Matchups: Blue Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Green Jewelry Bonney
OP01-001-roronoa-zoro is certainly showcasing strong potential for a Tier 1 placement, particularly when examining its win rate. However, its current play rate isn't yet proportionally high, so it remains to be seen if it can sustain this impressive win rate as more games are logged. While other aggressive powerhouses like OP10-001-smoker and OP05-002-belo-betty are clearly shining as Tier 1 contenders, OP01-001-roronoa-zoro unfortunately faces an unfavorable matchup against OP11-040-monkeydluffy. This difficult pairing against the format's presumed top deck is likely a key factor deterring more players from widely adopting this otherwise promising leader.
Green Jewelry Bonney
Featured Decklist Winrate: 56% in 50 games
Overall Winrate (Ranked Sim): 51.8% over 3000+ games
Favored Matchups: Green Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Red Yellow Belo Betty, Blue Buggy
Unfavored Matchups: Blue Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Black Marshall D. Teach, Red Green Smoker
OP07-019-jewelry-bonney marks the first Starter Deck leader to appear on this list, and so far, she's maintaining a respectable 51.8% win rate with a fairly high play rate. Given the generous infusion of new cards this archetype received within its Starter Deck, the optimal build for OP07-019-jewelry-bonney is still actively being determined by the community. Historically, OP07-019-jewelry-bonney boasts a strong track record against most aggressive decks, but her current trajectory is notably hindered by an unfavorable matchup against OP11-040-monkeydluffy.
This week's featured decklist for Bonney appears to be quite experimental, suggesting the pilot is diligently testing various card choices to finalize their ideal build. Interesting inclusions in this evolving list feature OP01-033-izo and EB02-015-jewelry-bonney, showcasing the ongoing innovation within the archetype as players seek to maximize its potential.
Green Yellow Yamato
Featured Decklist Winrate: 60.9% over 115 games
Overall Winrate (Ranked Sim): 50.2% over 1300+ games
Favored Matchups: Blue Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Red Yellow Belo Betty, Black Marshall D. Teach, Red Green Smoker
Unfavored Matchups: Green Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Green Jewelry Bonney
The second Starter Deck leader to be featured on this list is OP06-022-yamato! This revamped archetype looks incredibly promising, especially given its favorable matchups against all three of the current Tier 1 decks identified in this tier list. Furthermore, the prevalence of 4-life leaders in the meta presents a significant advantage for OP06-022-yamato, allowing the deck to capitalize on their inherent vulnerabilities. This week's featured decklist for OP06-022-yamato notably incorporates all five of the new support cards from its Starter Deck, and the statistics it's generating are highly encouraging.
An interesting strategic inclusion in this particular list is ST16-004-shanks as the deck's late-game boss card. This choice likely aims to provide the pilot with more robust options for protracted, grindy games, ensuring a powerful finisher even when matches extend beyond the early turns.
Blue Buggy
Featured Decklist Winrate: 60% over 85 games
Overall Winrate (Ranked Sim): 52.8% over 2700+ games
Favored Matchups: Blue Purple Luffy, Red Yellow Belo Betty, Black Marshall D. Teach.
Unfavored Matchups: Green Purple Luffy, Red Green Smoker, Green Jewelry Bonney
Among the exciting lineup of new Starter Deck leaders, OP09-042-buggy is arguably the one generating the most buzz within the community, and so far, he appears to be living up to those high expectations! Statistics show that the newly revamped OP09-042-buggy holds favored matchups against both OP11-040-monkeydluffy and OP05-002-belo-betty. Being able to consistently challenge these two top-tier decks will likely secure Buggy's place as a relevant force in the OP11 meta. However, a significant hurdle it must overcome is its notably abysmal matchup against the format's popular Green decks.
Aside from the new Starter Deck support, this week's featured list for OP09-042-buggy includes an interesting tech choice: ST03-009-donquixote-doflamingo! This inclusion points to players exploring unique avenues to optimize Buggy's performance in the current landscape.
Black Marshall D. Teach
Featured Decklist Winrate: 63.2% over 57 games
Overall Winrate (Ranked Sim): 49.6% over 3500+ games
Favored Matchups: Blue Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Red Yellow Belo Betty, Black Marshall D. Teach
Unfavored Matchups: Green Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Red Green Smoker, Green Jewelry Bonney
OP09-081-marshalldteach successfully secures a spot in Tier 2, largely thanks to the strategic support it gained as a Starter Deck leader! While the deck's overall win rate might not be exceptionally high—likely a testament to its elevated skill ceiling—expert pilots are still demonstrating considerable success, with this week's featured list achieving strong results.
Notably, OP07-096-tempest-kick makes a welcome return to OP09-081-marshalldteach builds. This staple, alongside the array of new cards received from the Starter Deck, is clearly contributing to the archetype's renewed competitive viability.
Tier 3
Black Purple Monkey D. Luffy
Featured Decklist Winrate: 66% over 53 games
Overall Winrate (Ranked Sim): 45.5% over 2600+ games
Favored Matchups: Red Yellow Belo Betty, Blue Buggy
Unfavored Matchups: Blue Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Green Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Black Marshall D. Teach, Red Green Smoker, Green Jewelry Bonney
OP09-061-monkeydluffy arrived as another highly anticipated Starter Deck leader, yet so far, its performance has placed it on the weaker side of the meta, reflected in a very low overall win rate. However, not all hope is lost! It's quite possible that the community simply hasn't yet uncovered the optimal decklist to unlock its true potential.
This week's featured decklist offers a glimmer of hope, boasting an exceptional 66% win rate across 53 games! This compelling statistic suggests that a breakthrough build for this leader might indeed be on the horizon.
Black Rob Lucci
Featured Decklist Winrate: 60.3% over 63 games
Overall Winrate (Ranked Sim): 48.1% over 1100+ games
Favored Matchups: Green Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Red Yellow Belo Betty, Red Green Smoker
Unfavored Matchups: Blue Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Black Marshall D. Teach, Blue Buggy
OP07-079-rob-lucci appears to be steadily declining in tier lists following the ban of the infamous OP06-086-gecko-moria. While it certainly still maintains a fair share of favorable matchups within the meta, its primary challenge stems from particularly difficult losses against specific decks, notably OP09-081-marshalldteach and OP09-042-buggy.
Despite this trend, this week's featured decklist offers a promising beacon of hope for OP07-079-rob-lucci enthusiasts, boasting a respectable 60.3% win rate. This suggests that with refined builds, the archetype still has the potential to carve out a competitive niche.
Green Yellow Trafalgar D. Law
Featured Decklist Winrate: 56.8% over 88 games
Overall Winrate (Ranked Sim): 47.7% over 1600+ games
Favored Matchups: Blue Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Blue Buggy
Unfavored Matchups: Red Yellow Belo Betty, Black Marshall D. Teach, Red Green Smoker
OP10-022-trafalgar-law is notoriously challenging to pilot effectively, and current statistics reflect this, showing that much of the player base is struggling to find consistent success with this leader. Despite its demanding nature, there's a strong belief that OP10-022-trafalgar-law holds significant untapped meta potential, primarily due to its favorable matchup against OP11-040-monkeydluffy. As the OP11 format progresses, the community will keenly observe whether Western players can truly unlock this leader's full capabilities.
Dark Horse Tier
Red Blue Marco
Featured Decklist Winrate: 66.7% over 63 games
Overall Winrate (Ranked Sim): 51.2% over 500+ games
Favored Matchups: Green Purple Monkey D. Luffy, Green Jewelry Bonney
Unfavored Matchups: Red Yellow Belo Betty, Black Marshall D. Teach, Blue Buggy
OP08-002-marco consistently holds its position in the Dark Horse Tier across recent tier lists, and that trend continues into OP11! This leader is clearly showcasing high potential, yet its current play rate means there aren't enough games played to definitively determine its ultimate standing in the meta. However, this week's featured decklist offers compelling evidence of its strength, displaying an impressive 66.7% win rate.
This particular featured decklist fully embraces the Animal archetype, even going so far as to utilize EB01-009-just-shut-up-and-come-with-us. This strategic choice draws a fascinating parallel to how OP01-001-roronoa-zoro builds are often constructed, highlighting a shared philosophy in aggressive, board-centric play.
Blue Purple Vinsmoke Reiju
Featured Decklist Winrate: 59.5% over 74 games
Overall Winrate (Ranked Sim): 50% over 600+ games
Favored Matchups: Red Green Smoker, Black Purple Monkey D. Luffy
Unfavored Matchups: Red Yellow Belo Betty, Black Marshall D. Teach, Blue Buggy
OP06-042-vinsmoke-reiju serves as the final entry for the Dark Horse Tier in this tier list! This archetype has undeniably benefited from some excellent support cards in OP11. Notably, OP11-047-vinsmoke-reiju provides a significant boost to its consistency, while OP11-043-vinsmoke-ichiji is a valuable addition that bolsters the deck's defensive capabilities. It remains to be seen if more players will gravitate towards this deck, allowing for further data and more conclusive insights into its true position within the meta.
