Egyptian God Deck #394063 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 36/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Summon The Winged Dragon of Ra - Immortal Phoenix (4000 ATK) and Egyptian God Slime / Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon Dragon for board pressure; Horus recursion from the GY via King's Sarcophagus, with Horus the Black Flame Deity as a 3000 ATK follow-up
• Turn 1 (going first): T1 Imsety or Trade-In / Tokusano for searcher and draw; T2 Winged Dragon of Ra - Sphere Mode or Ancient Chant to reach a Tribute Summon of Ra or a Slime fusion, then extend into Xyz or Link follow-ups
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand-trap Maxx "C" (illegal as built) and Raigeki-style removal to answer the opponent's first board, then rebuild through Horus GY revivals
• Recovery: Walls of the Imperial Tomb and the Horus searchers rebuild a Horus board from the GY; Immortal Phoenix recurs from the GY when Sphere Mode leaves the field
• After siding: Not applicable: Master Duel has no side deck, so the post-side plan is N/A

Why it scores here

The deck's structural read is built on the system, not on the individual cards: it reliably reaches a searcher-rich opening (about 85% for at least one searcher in five cards, Inferred) and has enough Winged Dragon of Ra access (Sphere Mode 3 copies, Immortal Phoenix 1 copy) to make a single Tribute line live. The Horus GY-recursion layer and the Xyz/Link follow-ups give the deck a second and third threat, so interruption resilience is moderate rather than poor. Interaction is reasonable (Raigeki, Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon and Underworld Goddess negations, Master Peace removal), and the closing power on the board is high, but the deck has no combo data, no side deck, and no tournament or meta evidence. Its main weakness is legality: Maxx "C" is run 3 copies against a Limited cap of 1, so the deck is capped low and scored as a structural read only. Popularity or archetype size did not earn any points, and card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 49.6, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 48, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) + ContextModifiers; Illegal deck capped low

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

• Heavy searcher density (12 searcher-text cards; P>=1 in opening 5 ≈ 0.85)
• High-ATK closing bodies: Immortal Phoenix, Galaxy-Eyes Prime Photon, Egyptian God Slime
• Interaction spread across Raigeki, two negation effects, and Master Peace removal

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: Maxx "C" at 3 copies vs a Limited cap of 1
• No recorded combos or tournament data, so floor and median are unknown
• Low archetype purity (25.5% exact name) with Horus, Xyz, Link and Fusion sub-engines to coordinate

Critical choke points

• Winged Dragon of Ra Tribute Summon line depends on Sphere Mode and Ancient Chant/Tribute enablers
• King's Sarcophagus is required for every Horus GY revival

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 40 and Extra 15 counts are within Master Duel size rules; Maxx "C" is Limited with 1 legal copy and 3 copies run (illegal); Archetype purity 25.5% and card stats match the evidence pack
• Inferred: At least one searcher in opening 5 ≈ 0.85 (hypergeometric); Sphere Mode / Ra line access ≈ 0.34 in opening 5; Engine and interaction read from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power and matchup fit (no dated metagame sample); Tournament reliability (no tournament link)
• Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link — archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN — going-first/second and matchup signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Master Duel has no side deck, so D12 is a placeholder score
