Everything has started with BT-07 where Hybrid Digimons has become too fast and too cheap (to digivolve), with Tommy's line also having a high defensive capability. Hybrid Digimons were supposed to push creativity in deck-building, with Susanomon who can be digivolved from any colour. However, that only happened in the early meta, and once the meta has stabilized, tournament decks just seem to be repeating themselves.
Tommy's Hybrid Deck is a very strong deck and deserves to be listed as Tier-1 in the BT7 meta. This deck has found its way to be fast and defensive: the combo of Tommy and his LV4 Digimons Kumamon and Korikakumon were always able to control the board. On top of that, the dramatic option card, Ice Wall, slows the game for Susanoomon which can be played for just 1 cost (by using Fuse into Ultimate Digimon) to end the game.
So what should be restricted to make this Tommy deck more acceptable? Based on our opinion, cards that should be restricted its number from 4 to 2 cards are:
- Tommy Himi
- LV4 KoriKakumon
- Ice Wall
