That's true for English events, but Japanese events run every day and information from said Japanese events, even if they're just locals, are constantly fed into places like Twitter, that is an openly available resource.

Even then, it looks like this is an opinionated off experience meta call rather than a meta call given by research and results, which makes me question your comment even more now.

If you just played the cards, you'd see that Ningarga is well on-par with Dragon and Magic variants. If you studied the cards, you'd note that the amount of control tools including but not limited to Sakurafubuki, Half-kill, Minawagakushi, Eerie Wailings, Shadowstitch Technique would give Draninja a niche that lets it perform well. I admit, Ningarga alone isn't as potent to match Dragon and Magic's pure output but its control options make it well on-par that it gets consistent tops and coverage in the Japanese scene.

Also your statement that Dimension Dragon Lost World is the most competitive thing to take to a tournament is either the source of misguidance or salt. DimDrag is not something I'd consider top-meta. At all.
