OP10 Weekly Meta Snapshot – New Climbers, Familiar Threats

The OP10 meta continues to shift, and this week’s developments are shaking up expectations in a big way. One standout performance has propelled Lim straight into the top five, while Shanks reclaims the spotlight at the very top. At the same time, a few surprise contenders are creeping back into relevance, keeping the field competitive and dynamic.

Here’s your breakdown of the decks making waves—and the ones quietly gaining ground.

🥇 Shanks – Back on Top with Flexible Power

Shanks reclaims the crown this week, thanks to its ability to adapt across multiple builds. Whether leaning aggressive or incorporating control elements, Shanks gives pilots room to shape their tempo and playstyle. Its optimal list may still be in flux, but its position at the top is anything but uncertain.

🧠 Blackbeard (Teach) – Evolving Control with Early-Game Answers

Teach continues to thrive with powerful value engines like Kuzan and Liberation, dominating the mid-to-late game. As players refine early-game tech and adjust their approach, Blackbeard remains a solid meta pick for those who prefer a methodical, control-oriented path to victory.

🔄 Doflamingo – Resilient and Refined

Holding steady in the top five, Doflamingo shows no signs of slowing down. With synergy-driven control and consistent midgame transitions, it continues to reward pilots who value tight sequencing and smart resource use. It’s a deck that doesn’t need flash to win—it just gets the job done.

💥 Purple Luffy – Steady, Strong, and Unshaken

Purple Luffy remains one of the most stable picks in OP10. Its explosive mid-game tempo and well-tuned core list require little adjustment, allowing players to focus on execution. Minor tech shifts are helping in early turns, but otherwise, Luffy continues to thrive by doing exactly what it’s always done—consistently winning.

🚀 G/P Lim – Breaking Through with Explosive Presence

Lim rockets into the top five this week after an undefeated run at Regionals. With a versatile matchup spread and powerful board development, the deck is proving it’s more than just hype. As more players experiment and optimize the list, Lim may continue to climb in the weeks ahead.

⚔️ Zoro – Still Swinging, Still Strong

Zoro’s popularity may have cooled since the format began, but it remains a go-to aggro pick. Its unmatched speed and relentless pressure continue to punish slower decks. Even with the meta adapting, Zoro still delivers fast wins and forces opponents to respect its presence.

🐾 Rob Lucci – Calculated and Underrated

Lucci may not be flashy, but it’s a deck that rewards mastery. Pilots who thrive on precision and technical play continue to find success with it. With thoughtful deckbuilding and refined lines, Lucci is quietly carving out a space in the meta for those who know how to pilot it right.

📈 Yellow Kid – Climbing at Last

After hovering just outside the spotlight, Yellow Kid finally makes a move up the rankings. As builds become more refined and players sharpen their sequencing, the leader is beginning to deliver on its early promise. If it keeps trending upward, Yellow Kid could soon be challenging the top control options.

🔄 B/P Reiju – Back in the Mix

Reiju makes a surprise return to the top 10 this week after some time bouncing around the rankings. With players revisiting its potential, the deck is starting to show results again. It’s too soon to say if it’s here to stay—but right now, it’s definitely making the most of the format’s shifting dynamics.

🌿 Bonney – Steady Hands, Strong Results

Bonney continues to do what Bonney does best: deliver consistent, solid performances. It may not steal the spotlight, but its efficient engines and adaptable sequencing make it a top-tier choice for pilots who value fundamentals. In an unpredictable format, Bonney is a pillar of reliability.

Conclusion

This week’s OP10 meta shows just how dynamic and deep the format has become. From Shanks reclaiming dominance to Lim’s breakout performance, the field is wide open for innovation and smart piloting. Familiar faces like Purple Luffy and Bonney continue to hold strong, while decks like Yellow Kid and Reiju are proving that persistence—and adaptation—can pay off.

As more events roll in and players refine their lists, expect further shakeups ahead. Whether you’re grinding tournaments or brewing off-meta, there’s plenty of room to make your mark in this evolving landscape.

Stay sharp, and see you next week with more meta insights!

Here’s how we evaluated each leader:

Step 1: Game Percentage Ranking (Popularity)
Leaders are ranked based on their presence in the meta, measured by the number of games they’ve been played. The most-played leader scores a perfect 100%, while the least-played receives 0%. This step highlights which decks players are gravitating toward, even if they’re not necessarily dominating.

Step 2: Win Rate Ranking (Performance)
Next, we ranked leaders based on their win rates. The highest-performing leader scores 100%, with all other leaders scaled relative to this benchmark. This step focuses on raw efficiency and success, rewarding decks that consistently secure victories.

Step 3: Ideal Leader Comparison
This step imagines the “perfect” leader: one that combines the highest win rate with the most games played. Each leader is measured against this ideal, balancing performance with popularity. A deck that’s widely played but underperforms—or one that excels in a smaller sample size—falls short of the perfect leader.

Step 4: Score Calculation
Finally, we distill these comparisons into a simple, intuitive scoring system from 0 to 10. Leaders closer to the “100/100” ideal earn higher scores, giving a clearer picture of their overall strength in the current meta.

By leveraging this enhanced approach, we’ve painted a more nuanced picture of the OP09 metagame. As we move forward, these insights should provide valuable guidance for those still engaging with the meta. Let’s dive into this week’s rankings!
