Destiny HERO Deck #376259 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox
• Format: tcg

Legality

Main 41 / Extra 17 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion Summon a high-ATK HERO Fusion Monster (Destiny HERO - Dystopia, Elemental HERO Shining Neos Wingman, Elemental HERO Absolute Zero, Vision HERO Trinity) through Fusion Destiny, Polymerization or Miracle Fusion, with Mask Change enabling the Masked HERO Fusions.; Link Summon Xtra HERO link monsters to reach the Extra Deck Fusion options and recycle HERO monsters from the GY.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open with Mask Change, A Hero Lives, Fusion Destiny or Polymerization to reach a Fusion Summon on turn 1 or 2, using Vision HERO Faris and Destiny HERO - Malicious as GY and hand-based recursion. Requires a 5-card hand that holds at least one enabler and one body (Inferred).
• Turn 2 (going second): Go second with a 6-card hand, keeping an enabler plus a summonable HERO body, and use Destiny HERO - Plasma and Forbidden Droplet to answer the opponent board. The deck has no hand traps, so the plan relies on sorcery-speed fusion and Droplet timing (Inferred).
• Recovery: Rebuild from the GY with Destiny HERO - Malicious, Vision HERO Vyon and Destiny HERO - Denier, and re-fuse from the Extra Deck while Miracle Fusion and Polymerization are in reach (Inferred).
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan. Best-of-3 play would need the Side slots filled before any adaptation is possible.

Why it scores here

The list is Illegal: it runs 3 copies of Triple Tactics Talent and 1 Called by the Grave, both Forbidden in TCG, and its Extra Deck holds 17 cards against a limit of 15, so the score is a structural-only ceiling and not a normal contextual score. Structurally the deck has several overlapping ways to start a Fusion engine (Fusion Destiny, Polymerization, Miracle Fusion, Mask Change, A Hero Lives) with HERO recursion from the GY, and its Extra Deck offers high-ATK closers such as Dystopia, Shining Neos Wingman and Absolute Zero. Its weaknesses are the low archetype purity (17.2% exact name, with Elemental, Vision, Destiny and Masked HERO mixed), the lack of hand traps or floodgates, and an empty Side Deck, which cuts both consistency and matchup adaptability. No combo boards, tournament results or win-rate data were supplied, so the floor, median and ceiling are inferred from card text and hypergeometric draw odds, and this is not a deck win rate. The score was not built by averaging card scores, and the deck's popularity was not given any credit.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo primary; Toolbox secondary not blended in numerically (Combo profile applied as-is). Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 45, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 42. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-6); extra deck over-limit (-3); no side deck (-3). Final formula: Illegal: theoretical cap. 0.80*Structural(52) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(42) + modifiers(-12) = 38, capped to 30 (structural-only). Meta Power provisional/null.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.68 · 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

• Several redundant Fusion enablers (Fusion Destiny, Polymerization, Miracle Fusion, Mask Change)
• High-ATK Fusion closers reachable from the Extra Deck
• Multiple GY recursion routes for HERO monsters

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Forbidden cards in the Main Deck and Extra Deck over the limit
• No hand traps or floodgates
• Low archetype purity and a no-side configuration

Critical choke points

• Mask Change is required for every Masked HERO Fusion
• Fusion enablers (Polymerization, Fusion Destiny, Miracle Fusion) are the only route to most Extra Deck closers

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality status: Illegal (Forbidden cards in Main Deck; Extra Deck 17 > 15); Main 41, Extra 17, Side 0 counts; Card text and stats for all listed cards; Hypergeometric draw odds from the resolved list
• Inferred: Consistency and brick estimates from draw odds and composition; Going-first and going-second plans from card text; Floor, median and ceiling estimates without combo data
• Provisional: Matchup and format fit (no tournament or dated meta sample)
• Data gaps: no combos supplied; combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent no win-rate telemetry; going-first/second and matchup signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied deck title is null
