From Reddit:
Artist_X: “United States players have a singular deck mentality where they only play the top winning decks of the previous tournaments. One person played R//R Stealth at an AGP, won, and then everyone did it. Same thing happened with:

* * Blazer Knights
* * Arla Knights
* * R//R Stealth
* * Alice’s World
* * Necrolance
* * Turbo Gwiber
* * Turbo Fiethsing
* * Dark Alice Water/darkness

While in all of the other countries, people ran decks that were original and different. Singapore and Malaysia had tournaments with R//R appearing 6 times in the total pool and not once in the top 10. They build to play the game, not to copy everyone else’s decks.
When those tournaments are made public, the Americans’ reactions are “Those don’t represent current meta… wasn’t a big enough tournament…Necrolance is the ONLY good deck to play…”
TLDR: United States TCG players are about the worst thing in the gaming industry.”
