Archetype Usage
Overall archetype usage
Cuckoo Koi and Cocoon Heal are the main 2 archetypes at the top. It has to be said that there has been innovations in various archetypes which can now be easily "net decked" Meta Morph. I am not in the position to say if it is a good thing or bad thing, but from a player point of view, it is always more fun to be able to have more options to customise your own team.
Mystic Era is always difficult in terms of defining archetypes, so there is quite significant number of teams labelled as "Others". At the time of writing, the number 1 team is an "Others" team with a Counter Stance Beast with Wing Horn and Koi.
Another thing to note is that I ran into some API rate limit problem near the end so I may not have captured all data in 1900-2000 VStar.
Besides Cuckoo Koi and Cocoon Heal, Sleep Poison, Summon Heal, Jinx can be found in 2300-2400 VStar.

Archetype Matchups
At the very top of the leaderboard, Cocoon Heal is taking advantage of Cuckoo Koi to climb up further compared to last week. Sleep Poison is now taking advantage of the rise of Cocoon Heal. The overall matchup data is pretty similar to last week as it includes players from 1900+ VStars. Various archetypes have undergone different changes and adaptations for the top teams, whose data is not really reflect in the overall matchup. See Additional Data section below for more data.
Conclusion
For the top players, this Mystic Era maybe the most fun with so many different possibilities and now it is relatively easy to get perfect Axies thanks to Meta Morph. Of course, this also means it is easier to copy other people's teams. For players who do not have expensive collectible Axies, it will be quite a bit more difficult to compete as the top players have perfect Axies for their strategies.
