Boss Monsters

Hot Red Dragon Archfiend King Calamity
Hot Red Dragon Archfiend King Calamity Once Hot Red Dragon Archfiend King Calamity hits the field upon being Synchro Summoned, the opponent is completely locked out of doing anything--be it activate cards or effects. They cannot activate anything in response to this card's trigger effect either, which means it can essentially lock the opponent out of their turn.
Red Supernova Dragon
Red Supernova Dragon For each Tuner monster in the GY, Red Supernova Dragon gets even stronger, and it helps that it cannot be destryoed via opponent's card effects. Its Quick Effect banishes all cards on the field when the opponent launches an attack, and will Special Summon itself in the next End Phase.
Bystial Dis Pater
Bystial Dis Pater With the help of the Bystials, Bystial Dis Pater can become both an offensive and defensive card to control the field. It can Special Summon a LIGHT or DARK monster that's banished, and it can either negate effect activations or destroy cards by shuffling back cards.
Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon
Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon may not be a DARK Dragon, but it is a formidable Synchro monster that can still be summoned with the Resonator Deck's strategy. It can is great against monsters Level 5 and above, being able to attack over monsters with high ATK, and can even negate monster effects and gain ATK equivalent to theirs.

Best Decks to Use Against Resonators

Best Cards to Tech Against Resonators

Dimension Shifter
Dimension Shifter A Resonator Deck will use its Graveyard as a resource pool, sometimes allowing cards to be useful even while in there. Dimension Shifter will easily deny them the ability to use it, especially during the first turn.
Droll & Lock Bird
Droll & Lock Bird Quite a lot of cards in a Resonator Deck will have search effects, like Crimson Gaia and Resonator Call. Droll & Lock Bird is already starting to gain popularity in the current meta, and it is seen to be a good card to run against a Resonator Deck.
Lava Golem
Lava Golem It can be hard to deal with a Resonator Deck's end board, especially if they plan on Synchro Summoning Hot Red Dragon Archfiend King Calamity and other powerful Synchro Summons. Lava Golem, as well as other fellow tributing monsters like the Kaijus and Winged Dragon of Ra - Sphere Mode can easily deal with multiple boss monsters on the field safely.
Dark Ruler No More
Dark Ruler No More As mentioned above, the end board of a Resonator Deck can be very oppressive, especially once King Calamity is on the field. Dark Ruler No More is a great counter against all boss monsters, especially as the activation of the Spell Card cannot be responded to with monster effects.
