Main 28 / Extra 9 / Side 0 — status: Legal.
Identity & game plan
- Win condition: Field 2600-3500 ATK beatsticks (Cosmo Queen, Berserk Dragon via A Deal with Dark Ruler, Felgrand, Trishula, Clear Wing) after Archfiend Heiress / Sorciere de Fleur build the board; Synchro and Link pressure from Chevalier de Fleur, Groza, Knightmare Phoenix and Unicorn
- Turn 1 (going first): Open Archfiend Heiress or Sorciere de Fleur (about 46% chance of at least one of the 3-copy starters in a 5-card hand), search or recurse an Archfiend, and reach a Synchro or Link line; hold Effect Veiler to answer an early monster effect
- Turn 2 (going second): Use the 6-card hand to Effect Veiler the opponent's key monster and Normal Summon or Special Summon through Sauge de Fleur and Necro Synchron, then go to Chevalier or Groza for negation and board presence
- Recovery: Heiress and Sauge de Fleur send cards to the GY and trigger search or recursion; Trade-In converts a Level 8 monster into two cards; Glow-Up Bulb and Necro Synchron rebuild the field from the GY
- After siding: No side deck is available in Duel Links; no post-side plan exists
Why it scores here
The deck reliably opens a starter in most hands: three copies each of Archfiend Heiress and Sorciere de Fleur give about a 46% chance of at least one of them in a 5-card opening hand, and Heiress and Sauge de Fleur recover cards through the Graveyard. Conversion is mid-range rather than explosive because the engine splits across Archfiend, Fleur, Synchron and Knightmare, and only 8 of 28 Main Deck cards carry the exact Archfiend name. Its interaction is broad (Effect Veiler x2, Chevalier de Fleur, Groza, Clear Wing, Trishula, Knightmare Phoenix, Ice Dragon's Prison) and it has several 2500-3500 ATK closers, which earns the endboard and pressure scores. The score comes from consistency, median output and interaction on the system, not from Archfiend's popularity and not from averaging individual card scores. Heavy off-archetype Extra Deck use across nine different themes and several single-copy bricks pull the score down.
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | Engine Accessibility & Consistency | 58 | P(at least 1 of 3-copy starter in 5-card hand) = 0.46; two starter families at 3 copies each (Heiress, Sorciere) (Inferred) |
| D2 | Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management | 48 | Single-copy bricks (Cosmo Queen, Pentestag, Glow-Up Bulb, Farfa, ADWDR) and 17 generic-archetype Main Deck cards; mixed Fleur/Archfiend/Synchron hands (Inferred) |
| D3 | Combo Conversion & Ceiling | 55 | Ceiling from Heiress GY recursion and Sauge de Fleur into multiple Synchro/Link lines; no recorded boards to confirm (Inferred) |
| D4 | Combo Floor & Median Output | 45 | No combo boards in export, so median is text-only; route mismatch lowers the floor (Inferred) |
| D5 | Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy | 52 | Two Effect Veiler hand traps and GY recursion give some redundancy; no independent backup line for the Fleur and Archfiend routes (Inferred) |
| D6 | Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind | 58 | Heiress and Sauge recover card advantage through the GY; Trade-In converts; Glow-Up Bulb recycles from the GY (Inferred) |
| D7 | End-Board & Interaction Quality | 62 | Broad interaction across Chevalier, Groza, Clear Wing, Trishula, Knightmare Phoenix, Eccentrick, Ice Dragon's Prison; negation text confirmed (Verified text / Inferred density) |
| D8 | Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power | 52 | Two Veilers and Groza/Clear Wing negation cover going second; no dedicated board breaker beyond Ice Dragon's Prison (Inferred) |
| D9 | Offensive Pressure & Closing Power | 62 | Closers at 2500-3500 ATK: Berserk Dragon 3500, Cosmo Queen 2900, Felgrand 2800, Trishula 2700; Berserk depends on one ADWDR and one Berserk Dragon (Verified stat / Inferred) |
| D10 | Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility | 42 | Only 8 of 28 main-deck copies are exact Archfiend (21.6% purity); 17 distinct main cards spread across archetypes (Verified) |
| D11 | Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage | 38 | Nine Extra Deck cards across Felgrand, Phoenix, Unicorn, Chevalier, Groza, Trishula, Pentestag, Clear Wing, Dingirsu; one Limited Extra card and several cards needing off-archetype materials (Verified / Inferred) |
| D12 | Side Deck Adaptability | 25 | Duel Links has no side deck; side count is 0, so no adaptability is available (Provisional) |
| D13 | Matchup Coverage & Format Fit | 50 | No tournament link or dated meta sample in the export; archetype usage is 2 of 25 core cards present (Provisional) |
| D14 | Pilotability & Error Tolerance | 50 | Several multi-step lines (Fleur, Archfiend, Synchron, Link material) with many decision points; moderate error tolerance (Inferred) |
How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 52, Going Second ≈ 54, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 48. Modifiers: Engine conflicts across archetypes (-3); Dependence on off-archetype Extra Deck cards (-2); Banlist exposure (0). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) + ContextModifiers (-5)
Probability & combo summary
- Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.46 · 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
- Two 3-copy starters (Heiress, Sorciere) give roughly 46% opening access on going first
- Broad end-board interaction with multiple negation and removal sources
- Several high-ATK closers that convert a board into pressure
- Recursion through Heiress, Sauge de Fleur and Necro Synchron
Weaknesses
- Archetype purity is only 21.6%; the engine splits across several themes
- Nine Extra Deck cards spread across four or more archetypes with material conflicts
- Several single-copy cards are situational or bricks (Cosmo Queen, Pentestag, Farfa)
- No side deck or post-side plan in Duel Links
Critical choke points
- A single Archfiend Heiress or Sorciere opening is often the only starter in hand; with one starter, the deck has little redundancy
- Berserk Dragon depends on one A Deal with Dark Ruler and one Berserk Dragon
- Off-archetype Extra Deck cards need materials the deck does not run
Recommended changes
| Priority | Remove | Add | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Pentestag | A second Archfiend starter or an extra Effect Veiler | Pentestag is a weak Link-2 with no archetype support; a second starter would raise D1 and D2 |
| 2 | Dingirsu, the Orcust of the Evening Star | An Archfiend or Fleur Extra Deck card | Dingirsu needs Orcust materials the deck does not run; a themed Extra card would improve D11 |
| 3 | Farfa, Malebranche of the Burning Abyss | Archfiend's Advent or a second Archfiend Emperor | Farfa is off-archetype and single-copy; Archfiend-specific support would raise purity and D10 |
Evidence & confidence
- Verified: Legal in Duel Links: 28 main, 9 extra, 0 side, Felgrand Limited 1/1; Only 8 of 28 main-deck copies are exact Archfiend (21.6% purity); Usage stats: 2 of 25 core cards present
- Inferred: Starter access about 46% for 3-copy starters (hypergeometric); Interaction density across Veiler, Chevalier, Groza, Clear Wing, Trishula; Ceiling and median from card text only, no combo boards
- Provisional: Meta power null; no dated metagame sample; Matchup fit (D13) unknown; 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 rates unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
