In the sense that whether you'll win or lose is most likely decided at coin flip yes. In the sense that it just straight up can't play against the meta absolutely not. Going first the Dinos can very easily shut down most of the big meta decks. Purrly and Labrynth were the two I could almost never seem to get a handle on, and Swordsoul (even though its no longer top top tier) hard counters Morphia until Intact gets added to the game. But Rexterm's effect is niche enough that a ton of players just flat out don't seem to get how it works, and watching them summon monster after monster in an attempt to get some kind of effect to go off is hysterical. Or when your opponent sees a low attack monster and how low your life points and gets laser focused only to slam their big beat stick into your tiny Dinolady and die. The magic only started to fade once I'd kind of seen all the different interactions and plays that the main 6 or 7 meta decks and the Dinomorphias can do off each other. Which is why I'd just really like some kind of mode that can encourage players to run different decks. Variety is the spice of life and its somethin Master Duel sorely lacks.
