Deck — Deck Power Evaluation
Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)
| Overall score | Value |
|---|---|
| Structural Deck Power | 51.2 |
| Going First | 50 |
| Going Second | 56 |
| Meta Power | provisional |
| Tournament Reliability | 40 |
- Primary strategy: Midrange
- Secondary strategies: Stun, Synchro/Machine engine
- Format: ocg
Legality
Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 5 violation(s).
Identity & game plan
- Win condition: Karakuri Synchro Shogun / Super Shogun boards (2300–3000 ATK) built through Tuner-plus-Machine Synchro Summons; Cyber Dragon Nova / Infinity and Machina Citadel (Xyz/Special Summon finishers)
- Turn 1 (going first): Open with a Karakuri or Synchron Tuner starter (Gama Oil / Gama mdl 4624 / Revolution Synchron), search via Karakuri Merchant or Machina Redeployment, and Synchro into a Karakuri Shogun for a board
- Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Maxx "C", Infinite Impermanence, Droll & Lock Bird and Effect Veiler to disrupt the opponent's first turn, then rebuild the Karakuri engine from the hand
- Recovery: Recover through the Karakuri GY-revival effects and Tuning/Synchron searches, with Machina Redeployment as the refill
- After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan
Why it scores here
The deck is scored as a system, not as an average of its cards. Its engine (Karakuri and Synchron Tuners searching into Karakuri Shogun Synchro monsters) opens a playable plan about one time in three in a 5-card opening hand (P(≥1 three-copy starter) ≈ 0.34, Inferred), and it converts that plan into a strong Synchro board (2300–3000 ATK). Its interaction package is the real strength: 8 hand traps and about 9 negation effects make it hard to set up against on the opponent's turn, and the hand-trap share is higher when going second. Floor and median output cannot be measured because the deck has no recorded boards, so both are text-only estimates. The score is limited by the legality failure: it runs Forbidden cards (Called by the Grave ×2, F.A. Dawn Dragster, Naturia Beast) and over-limit copies (Ash Blossom ×3, Maxx "C" ×2), so the structural score is capped and the result is theoretical. Popularity and archetype usage did not earn points, and no side deck is included.
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | Engine Accessibility & Consistency | 55 | P(≥1 three-copy starter in 5 cards) ≈ 0.34; searcher-text P(≥1 in 5) ≈ 0.74; engine depends on Machine Tuners (Inferred) |
| D2 | Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management | 50 | 9 searchers and 8 hand traps offset dead Synchro-only hands; 18 level-0 spells risk redundant hands (Inferred) |
| D3 | Combo Conversion & Ceiling | 45 | No parseable boards; ceiling is a text read of Super Shogun + Cyber Dragon Nova chains (Inferred) |
| D4 | Combo Floor & Median Output | 40 | No recorded boards; median and floor are not measurable, estimated low (Inferred) |
| D5 | Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy | 55 | 8 hand traps and multi-route Karakuri GY revivals give independent lines (Inferred) |
| D6 | Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind | 50 | Machina Redeployment and Tuning recover resources; Synchro summons spend the Extra Deck (Inferred) |
| D7 | End-Board & Interaction Quality | 68 | Ash, Maxx "C", Infinite Impermanence, Droll, Veiler and Crossout give layered interaction (Verified text, Inferred quality) |
| D8 | Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power | 60 | Hand traps have higher density when going second, which challenges established boards (Inferred) |
| D9 | Offensive Pressure & Closing Power | 65 | Super Shogun 3000 ATK, Steel Shogun 2800 ATK, Cyber Dragon Nova and Machina Citadel 3000 ATK give closing power (Verified stats) |
| D10 | Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility | 50 | 40 cards, 23 distinct, archetype purity 29%; many off-archetype and generic cards dilute the engine (Verified composition) |
| D11 | Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage | 50 | 15 Extra Deck cards, 2 of them Forbidden (F.A., Naturia) so the Extra Deck is illegal as built (Verified legality) |
| D12 | Side Deck Adaptability | 10 | No Side Deck at all, so no post-side adaptability (Verified: side_count 0) |
| D13 | Matchup Coverage & Format Fit | 45 | No tournament link or dated meta sample; format fit is Provisional |
| D14 | Pilotability & Error Tolerance | 50 | Multi-step Synchro lines and many hand-trap timings raise decision load (Inferred) |
How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Midrange profile; Stun used only as a secondary label, not for weights. Structural ≈ 51.2, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 56, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); no side deck (-4); illegal cap (-7). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*51.2 + 0.20*40 = 49.0; modifiers -12 gives 37.0; Illegal cap applied gives 30 (theoretical/structural-only, not a normal legal score)
Probability & combo summary
- Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.34 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ — (all Inferred)
- Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
- Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines
Strengths
- Layered hand-trap and negation package (8 hand traps, ~9 negation texts)
- Strong Synchro closers at 2300–3000 ATK
- Recursion through Karakuri GY effects and Tuning/Synchron searches
Weaknesses
- Illegal as built: Forbidden and over-limit cards
- Starter access only about one time in three per 5-card hand
- Low archetype purity (29%) and many off-archetype cards
- No Side Deck
Critical choke points
- Extra Deck legality: F.A. Dawn Dragster and Naturia Beast are Forbidden
- Single-copy Karakuri Bonze and Shogun Synchro lines depend on Tuner availability
Recommended changes
| Priority | Remove | Add | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Called by the Grave ×2, F.A. Dawn Dragster, Naturia Beast | Legal Karakuri Synchro or Extra Deck replacements | Fixes the Illegal status; without this change the deck cannot receive a normal score |
| 2 | Ash Blossom ×1, Maxx "C" ×1 | Legal Karakuri or Synchron starters | Brings copies to the Semi-Limited and Limited caps and improves starter density |
| 3 | Off-archetype generic cards | Karakuri engine cards or a 15-card Side Deck | Raises archetype purity and gives a post-side plan |
Evidence & confidence
- Verified: Illegal status: 5 violations and 4 Forbidden/Limited/Semi-Limited restrictions; Main 40 and Extra 15 are within the OCG size rules; Side 0; Card stats and text for Karakuri Shogun, Super Shogun, Steel Shogun and Cyber Dragon Nova
- Inferred: Starter consistency (P ≈ 0.34 for a 3-copy starter in 5 cards); Interaction quality from negation and hand-trap texts; Going-second hand-trap advantage
- Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup and format fit (D13)
- Data gaps: no combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link: no archetype meta-share or pilot match record no win-rate telemetry for going-first/second, matchup or brick rates Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
