NAC and EU played the exact same format — Set 13 rotation, Sets 9 through 13 — and produced two completely different metagames. Detectives was the single most-registered deck in North America and one of the least played decks in Europe. Amber Amethyst Mid-range was Europe's most popular deck by a wide margin and only the fourth most popular in North America.In this Lorcana meta breakdown I go through the raw registration numbers from both championships, popularity versus conversion, and every deck list that made the top cut in Europe — the Amber Emerald Aggro list that won the whole thing, the second place list, and the tech cards that decided the room. Then I give you my three picks for the rest of Set Championships and the upcoming CCQs.If you want the Lorcana meta game explained with real tournament data instead of guesswork, this is it. Deck lists, matchup math, and the reasoning behind every choice.IN THIS VIDEO• Raw popularity — what NA vs EU actually registered• Popularity vs. performance, deck by deck• The EU Championship winning deck list and every top cut list• The Run — the card that patches Ruby Amethyst's biggest historical hole• Set Championship predictions: Amber Emerald, Amber Amethyst, Detectives⏱️ TIMESTAMPS0:00 Intro1:17 Raw Popularity: NA vs EU Registration Numbers2:07 The Two Metagames Question — Weigh In4:59 Popularity vs. Performance8:53 Why the Best Deck for the Room Won10:23 EU Champion: Voychic Zwarm11:12 The Winning Amber Emerald List13:05 Second Place Amber Emerald List14:46 Junior Franco — Top 416:59 Daniela and the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Deck20:33 Ruby Amethyst in the Top 821:13 The Run — Ruby Amethyst's Answer to Items24:00 Florian — Circle of Life in the Top 825:44 Seven Decks in the Top 829:03 Adventure Book Control — Top 1630:51 Adventure Book Control — Second List34:11 NAC vs EU Finals Results34:51 Set Championship Picks38:44 Join the War Room40:43 EU World's Invites and ClosingDan Arnold Lorcana ---Coaching: metafy.gg/dan-arnold-lorcanaDiscord: https://discord.gg/8DSt4dNnV6Instagram: @danaroldlorcanaDecklist : https://dreamborn.ink/creators/XAXGXyRye0ReMLzB2zHDOhOD09s1Want to know what's actually winning in Disney Lorcana right now?

This report breaks down 109,501 online games from Duels.ink alongside 40 Top 8 finishes from five live tournaments across four countries, identifies the strongest deck pairs, and examines which archetypes are rising and falling.Amber Emerald remains one of the defining decks of the format, but the metagame is far from solved. Amber Steel, Amber Amethyst, Amber Ruby, Amethyst Steel, and Emerald Steel all have viable paths to success — five color pairs sit within four percentage points of each other. We also examine the rock-paper-scissors relationship between the top three decks, the impact of going first in the Amber Emerald mirror, and why Sapphire strategies are currently struggling across both online and paper play.The report covers nine tournament decklists in full:Elinor Amber Emerald — Joseph Wong, 1st place, ACQ SingaporeCircle of Life Reanimator — TomDecker, 1st place, La Forge Invasion EpineuseGY RED Amber Emerald — Botsu, 3rd place, Case TournamentJeffs Assemble Amber Amethyst — Juancho Morales, 1st place, ACQ PhilippinesINTERSTELLAR SONG Amber Steel — Habibi, 2nd place, Lorcana Challenge Championship Qualifier2 Jaune/Rouge Amber Ruby Boost — Neoraiden, 2nd place, La Forge Invasion Epineuse5 Robot Amethyst Steel — BFF KIAMU, Top 8, La Forge Invasion EpineuseTouch the Sky Emerald Steel — Jeremy Rowe, Top 8, Lorcana Challenge Championship QualifierMeeska Mouska WardTool Emerald Sapphire — BigBlake, 2nd place, Case TournamentIf you are preparing for your next tournament or trying to choose the right deck for the current Lorcana meta, this breakdown will help you understand the decks, matchups, and card choices shaping competitive play.LinksEmerald Steel deck guide by Duck: https://metafy.gg/guides/view/set-13-core-green-steel-tempo-touch-paradiSubscribe for weekly Disney Lorcana content.--- Dan Arnold Lorcana ---Coaching: metafy.gg/dan-arnold-lorcanaDiscord: https://discord.gg/8DSt4dNnV6Instagram: @danaroldlorcanaData and creditsOnline data from Duels.ink (Core Set 13, best of three, July 19–25).
