A Chaotic Battle:Shadoll Vs. Tellaknight format Discussion

Welcome duelists!

I am Kazuhiko Takashi( Not the creator itself,Mr. Kazuki Takahashi).I one of the new writers of RespectYGO:the game we love .For my very first article,I would like to share my thoughts about the two infamous decks that literally shines this format.(Yes,they literally shines for some reason.)

Who are they?

I'm talking about these two decks namely Shadoll and Tellaknights.There's no doubt that these two decks brought chaos literally to some players.(I'm saying this because other duelist lose all their hopes and dreams when they are about to compete with these decks,well not exactly their dreams though that's insane :D )
In other terms,people tend to side heavily for these decks.Early April,the meta consists mostly of Shadoll but with the recently held World Championship Qualifier,people discover some light on Tellaknights.

Reasons why these decks are extremely a Popular Choice :

Shadoll:With extremely powerful effects ranging from monster destruction,monster revival, and search power,there is no doubt that Shadoll is definitely a force to be reckoned with.Not only that,they also have the ever powerful Shadoll Fusion in their arsenal as well as the well-known El-Shadoll Midrash and El-Shadoll Nephilim.Many people mentioned that this deck resembles similarly as the good ol' Evilswarms but I think Shadolls can create a mark in the history in the future years as one of the greatest decks in terms of control.
Budget wise,while many people claim that they are quite expensive because of their rarities,well I can call it one of the balancing tactics of Konami.Well at least they can get the most out of their investment because its definitely worth investing right?

Overall,Shadoll is extremely one of the best choice if you want to have a competitive meta deck this July format adding the fact that they will surely get a boost for the upcoming The Next Challengers(NECH) booster pack.Exciting!


Tellaknights:Next up is one of the so called "Rogue deck" at the start of April ban list but later on received some appreciation in tandem with the Star Seraph "Brothers" namely Star Seraph Scepter and Star Seraph Sovereign(Well I'm not exactly sure if whose the male or the female or if they have a gender LOL).

Tellaknights are known for its great consistency and together with Star Seraphs,they'll surely be the great contender this format.
Budget wise,it is definitely cheaper to build than Shadolls considering their low rarities aside from Satellaknight Delteros which is an Ultra.
Many people started to shift their gears to tellaknights and the latest OCG WCQ is definitely a great influence.Overall,I consider this deck a Tier 1 potential and I'm really sure that it can go along way with new support cards from The Next Challengers(NECH) to be released on July 19 in OCG.



To sum up,both of these decks definitely shows a great impression for many players.For players who wanted to start competitively,I highly suggest to try one of these.
In less than two weeks,a new booster pack will rise and I'm sure old and new decks will come across their way.But with these choices which is very solid like a rock,I'm pretty convinced that they can dominate future formats and to an extent,players will experienced a world of pain with Tellaknight and Shadolls,having a Chaotic Battle!!!!
