Sacred Beast Deck #428232 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 25/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Stun
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Yubel-based board of Link and Fusion summons (Phantom of Yubel, Yubel - The Loving Defender Forever, Unchained Soul links) converting a turn of Special Summons into a board that is hard to remove; Sacred Beast / Unchained follow-up through Chaos Summoning Beast and Unchained Soul Lord of Yama, with Varudras as a single extra-deck boss
• Turn 1 (going first): Search or Normal Summon into a Yubel starter (Spirit of Yubel, Samsara D Lotus, Nightmare Pain) and build a Link Summon, holding Ash Blossom and Infinite Impermanence for the response
• Turn 2 (going second): Open with Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence or Nibiru to interrupt the opponent's first board, then rebuild through a searcher (Dark Beckoning Beast, Opening of the Spirit Gates) into a Yubel line
• Recovery: Searchers (18 cards by text) and Nightmare Pain refill the hand; Spirit of Yubel and Gruesome Grave Squirmer recover from the GY
• After siding: Not assessable: the export contains no side deck (Side Deck size 0), so there is no post-side plan to evaluate

Why it scores here

This list is scored as a structural evaluation only, because it is illegal in Master Duel: it runs Called by the Grave x2 and Apollousa x1 (both Forbidden), Maxx C x2 (Limited to 1), and it has no side deck. Its structure is reasonable on paper: 3 copies of the Yubel starters and searchers give a likely engine start (P of at least one searcher in the opening 5 is about 0.96, Inferred), and 9 hand traps plus 9 negation-text cards give a layered interaction package. Its ceiling and median cannot be measured, because the export contains no parseable boards, so combo scores rest on card text alone. Popularity and archetype usage did not earn points: only 3 of 25 standard Sacred Beast core cards are present, and no tournament data exists. The score was not produced by averaging card scores. The illegal status caps the final score low.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 52.4, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 60, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 48. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers = 51.5 - 12 = 39.5, then capped at 25 because the list is Illegal (legal-status cap; theoretical/structural-only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.96 · 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

• Three copies each of the Yubel starters and searchers give a likely engine start
• Nine hand traps and nine negation-text cards give layered interaction on both turns
• Extra deck covers Link, Fusion, Synchro and Xyz roles with a boss-level Varudras

Weaknesses

• Illegal in Master Duel: two Forbidden cards and a copy-limit overrun on Maxx C
• Only 3 of 25 standard Sacred Beast core cards are present, so the list does not run the archetype's usual core
• No side deck, so best-of-3 adaptation is absent
• Three engines (Yubel, Unchained, Relinquished) with 9% exact-archetype purity risk conflicts in the opening hand

Critical choke points

• Ash Blossom and the Yubel starters: a single Yubel-line disruption leaves a sparse hand
• Forbidden Called by the Grave and Apollousa must be removed before the deck is playable

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Deck is Illegal: Called by the Grave x2 and Apollousa x1 are Forbidden; Maxx C x2 exceeds the Limited limit of 1; Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 match the Master Duel size rules except for the empty side deck; Extra deck is 10 Link, 3 Fusion, 1 Synchro, 1 Xyz
• Observed: Only 3 of 25 core Sacred Beast cards from usage statistics are present; Archetype exact-name purity is 9.1 percent
• Inferred: Opening-hand searcher probability 0.96 and hand-trap probability 0.81 going second; Combo, interaction and resilience ratings from card text, not from recorded boards; Structural score 52.4 from the Combo weight profile
• Provisional: Matchup and format fit (D13) and Meta Power, pending a dated metagame sample; Post-side adaptability (D12), because no side deck exists
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: ceiling, median and floor are text-only inference No tournament link: no archetype meta-share and no per-pilot match record No win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchup or brick rate No side deck in the export Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample
