The Best Decks in the One Piece Card Game Right Now (June 2026)

The Time of Battle (OP-16) doesn't technically hit the West for about another week, but pre-release events are already underway, players in the Eastern format already have the set in hand, and the metagame is starting to take shape. For the most part, things have unfolded about as expected: Black Yellow Teach is an instant frontrunner, Purple Enel remains the flexible deck to beat, and Blue Yellow Nami is still a menace you have to plan around.

Less predictable was the rise of decks like Black Yamato and Purple Yellow Rosinante. Both were pegged as solid coming into OP-16, but neither was expected to push for the top of the format, yet early tournament results suggest they could end up among the set's strongest contenders.

So here's a special cuspy best-decks list: two OP-15 lists for players grinding the current format over the next couple weeks (OP-16 isn't Regional-legal until mid-month), plus three promising OP-16 decks that are over-performing in the set's earliest days.

Purple Enel (OP-15)

Another month, another meta-dominant Purple Enel list. Even the imminent arrival of OP-16 doesn't look like it'll end Enel's reign as the strongest deck in the One Piece Card Game.

This month's list is nearly card-for-card the same as last month's, with the exception that it doesn't run a single copy of Holly, the Double Attack dog that was long considered to be one of the best cards in the deck. Now that yellow decks have cooled off a bit, recent Enel builds have found the control game reliable enough that they no longer need the early aggression. Expect that to change as we head into OP-16 and the Black Yellow Teach lists climb to the top.

As always, the deck leans on a potent two-card combo: Gamma Knife and Senor Pink. Gamma Knife is one of the strongest control tools left in the game post-removal-nerf, since it can be combo'd with El Thor to K.O. bodies or drag them into attack spam range for your board. Senor Pink, on top of being a 6000-power body, can recur Gamma Knife—or any other Event—from the trash, making it a flexible pick that unlocks a wide range of switch-ups and paths to victory.

Varie, meanwhile, continues to put in work as a three- or four-of, protecting bodies from cost-based removal and freezing effects from cards like Electrical Luna.

Blue Yellow Nami (OP-15)

• 1 OP11-041 Nami
• 4 OP14-102 Kumacy
• 4 P-096 Girl
• 4 OP11-106 Zeus
• 2 OP12-112 Baby 5
• 4 OP14-110 Dr. Hogback
• 4 OP14-111 Perona
• 3 OP06-104 Kikunojo
• 2 PRB02-008 Marco
• 1 OP15-113 Roronoa Zoro
• 4 EB04-058 Borsalino
• 4 EB03-053 Nami
• 2 OP14-108 Silvers Rayleigh
• 4 EB03-055 Nico Robin
• 4 OP14-104 Gecko Moria
• 4 OP13-042 Edward.Newgate

Blue Yellow Nami remains one of the strongest decks in the game thanks to a powerful Leader effect that turns her into a 7000-power Leader, the ability to heal multiple Life with Borsalino/Moria/Zoro/Nico Robin, and access to the Thriller Bark package, all of which give her a great matchup against the best deck in the format.

Dubbed the "Thriller Slop" build for its Thriller Bark package, the plan with this list is simple: play out your curve, swing with your big bodies, and use your powerful defensive counters to survive into the late game, where you can simply out-value your opponent. Meanwhile, Trigger effects offer unexpected board swings that can heavily punish opponent aggression.

This version runs two copies of PRB-02 Marco, which provides late game defense without losing out on card advantage and, in a worst case scenario, can still be discarded to activate Nami's Leader effect.

Black Yellow Teach (OP-16)

• 1 OP16-080 Marshall.D.Teach
• 4 OP16-109 Doc Q
• 3 OP16-103 Van Augur
• 4 OP16-110 Vasco Shot
• 4 OP16-104 Catarina Devon
• 4 OP09-086 Jesus Burgess
• 3 OP16-106 Sanjuan.Wolf
• 4 EB04-058 Borsalino
• 4 OP16-108 Shiryu
• 3 OP16-119 Marshall.D.Teach
• 3 OP14-112 Boa Hancock
• 4 OP09-093 Marshall.D.Teach
• 4 OP09-096 My Era...Begins!!
• 2 OP16-116 Zehahahahaha!
• 4 OP09-099 Fullalead

With the power to redirect opponent attacks by trashing a Trigger card, Black Yellow Teach is a defensive powerhouse of a deck that, like many other meta-defining yellow decks, can also put the opponent on a clock by forcing them to take damage.

The curve is elegant. Early small drops like Vasco Shot, Van Augur, and Doc Q serve as attack-redirect fodder. The midgame brings high-ceiling threats like Jesus Burgess and Catarina Devon, and the late game drops boss monsters like the new 8-cost SEC Teach alongside old mainstays like OP-14 Boa Hancock and the 10-cost Blocker Teach. If things get dicey, there's Borsalino too.

The deck's real strength is its flexibility. Those early drops double as a toolbox, while the wide range of attacker sizes and board widths let it answer a variety of challenges.

Black Yamato (OP-16)

• 1 OP16-079 Yamato
• 4 OP16-091 Nami
• 4 OP16-092 Nico Robin
• 4 OP16-081 Otama
• 4 OP16-087 Shinobu
• 2 OP16-088 Shimotsuki Ushimaru
• 4 OP13-093 Morgans
• 4 OP16-082 Kin'emon
• 4 OP16-084 Kouzuki Momonosuke
• 4 OP16-098 Yamato
• 1 OP16-096 Yamato
• 4 OP16-097 Yamato
• 4 OP16-086 Sanji
• 3 OP16-085 Kouzuki Momonosuke
• 4 OP16-099 I've Come Here To Cut Those Chains!

Black decks aren't usually known for aggression, but Black Yamato, which gives any Wano card Rush when it's summoned from the trash, can absolutely go off once its combos are set up. To help get there, the deck runs searchers like Nami and Kin'emon, which trash the cards they don't grab, plus Morgans and Nico Robin, both of which draw and trash cards.

From there, your combo pieces—Momonosuke, Shinobu, and Yamato—work in concert, summoning one another, Rushing, and re-summoning all over again. The deck is a blast to pilot, and its ability to chain attacks out of nowhere can catch opponents completely off guard. Better still, because it summons from the trash pile it fills extremely quickly, it sees its pieces consistently, which is another huge boon to its competitive value.
 

Purple Yellow Rosinante (OP-16)

• 1 OP12-061 Donquixote Rosinante
• 4 OP12-108 Donquixote Rosinante
• 4 OP16-064 Koby
• 4 OP10-114 X.Drake
• 2 OP16-068 Trafalgar Law
• 3 ST10-010 Trafalgar Law
• 4 P-088 Trafalgar Law
• 4 P-093 Trafalgar Law
• 4 EB04-058 Borsalino
• 4 OP15-118 Enel
• 3 OP16-065 Sakazuki
• 2 EB03-062 Trafalgar Law
• 4 OP15-078 Mamaragan
• 4 OP12-115 I Love You!!
• 4 OP16-078 Marineford

Long written off as a meme deck, Purple Yellow Rosinante improved gradually until EB-03 finally pushed it into the top tier. Its stock dipped once Enel arrived, but it looks poised for a comeback thanks to OP-16's purple Marine package, which works organically with Rosinante, Borsalino, and the set's new Sakazuki SR.

As in previous sets, the deck still excels at swarming the board with powerful Trafalgar Law cards played ahead of curve, then closing with bigger bodies. This list, which won an Extra Grand Battle in Thailand, doesn't even run Rosinante & Law (once a staple of the deck) and still took first.
