1.) The most popular and powerful decks right now are Mayu (both Tama and Iona versions) and Seiryu-Beiar Midoriko decks.

2.) Contempora should not be a problem for Midoriko decks because she doesn't protect against Lancer.

3.) Seiryu is the best Lancer. Misuzaku and Miao are played in 3-stop Midoriko decks that can't use Seiryu.

4,) Pretty much every tournament winning Midoriko deck runs 4 copies of Repair. That is because Repair is one of the most, if not the most, overpowered card of the game.

Seiryu-Beiar decks all look pretty much the same:

>Level 1

4 Servant O

3-4 Servant O2

4 Rosary

0-2 Texahammer (If Ancient Surprise or Dead Splash are used)

>Level 2

3-4 Level 2 Plant Signi (Marigold, Kano, Lotus or Haetori)

3-4 Servant D

0-2 Azteca (If Ancient Surprise or Dead Splash are used)

>Level 3

Usually nothing

>Level 4

4 Seiryu

4 Beiar

3-4 Gauche Agnes

2-4 Mandore

>Spells

4 Repair

2-4 Three Out

>Arts

This is the only part in the deck where you see major variations. Usually some combination of Wake Up, Big Wave, Big Bang, Restructure, Anti-Spell, Two Dust, Idol Defense, Ancient Surprise, Dead Splash, Oversalvage and Idol Defense.
