Turns out when Gear Chronicle isn't one of the top decks of a format it sees less play.  Who would have figured.  People are still going to REEEEE over the mere mention of them because of the PTSD they still have over Time Leap and ZtB however.  In any case these results as usual need to be taken with a grain of salt given its release weekend and people are trying things out as evidence by Great Nature seemingly doing well one day but then vanishing the next.  Gears are performing okayish and Genesis are competing in spite of their lower numbers.  Neo Nectar and Angel Feather are still the decks to beat based on the sheer number of them in these tournaments which goes to show that if a clan is REALLY good lots of people will play it.  Go figure.

    1. Those results are for Western Events. The results I post are from Japan with the occasional western event that I usually find out about before they're posted on that site. Appreciate the effort tho.

  2. Singapore,Malaysia
    Indonesia,New Zealand
    Philippines/Manila
    Philippines/Cebu are all asia based.

    Other than that, you can remove the "en" from the link and it shows the asian site which has asian content https://cf-vanguard.com/deckrecipe/

    1. All those countries you listed fall under the grey area of being "Not Japan" therefore their tournaments are held under English Format alot of the time (they will have Japanese Tournaments as well but they are considered to be the same Region as the west more often than not).

      Furthermore that site only covers Bushiroad held tournaments. Most of these pictures that I find come from the more frequent VGCS tournaments which are not on that site.
