• Format: tcg

Legality

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Chaos Emperor, the Dragon of Armageddon; Blue-Eyes Alternative White Dragon / Accesscode Talker OTK
• Turn 1 (going first): Set 1, develop with Sage/Ash Blossom, dig Chaos Space/Pot, assemble Chaos Emperor or pivot to big beatsticks.
• Turn 2 (going second): Set 2, Ash Blossom vs opener, hand-trap heavy pivot to Chaos Emperor or OTK lines.
• Recovery: Foolish Burial / One-way Rag recycle, Chaos Space/Pot reassembly, Chaos Emperor or OTK restart.
• After siding: Floodgate + removal side; main plan unchanged; no post-side data.

Why it scores here

The deck aims for a Blind-Second / OTK profile with Chaos Emperor as the primary threat and Blue-Eyes Alternative White Dragon / Accesscode Talker as secondary. It has strong hand-trap coverage and disruption (D7, D5) but suffers from illegal key cards and low consistency due to a 48-card main deck with over-limit Pot of Prosperity and a Forbidden Baronne de Fleur, hurting reliability (D1, D2). Combo ceiling is present via Chaos Emperor and big beatsticks (D3), yet median output is constrained by brick risk and limited extra deck efficiency (D4, D11). The deck can break boards going second (D8) but lacks stable resource sustain (D6) and has a weak post-side plan (D12, D13), yielding a mid-tier score with high variance.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Blind-Second / OTK. Structural ≈ 38, Going First ≈ 45, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 30. Modifiers: key_card_legality (-15); brick risk (-7); extra_deck_restriction (-5); hand_trap_buffer (7); no_post_side_data (-5). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ — · 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

• Strong hand-trap and disruption suite (Ash Blossom, Nibiru, Effect Veiler, 10 total hand-traps).
• High going-second pressure with Accesscode Talker and big beatsticks.
• Multiple searcher lines (18 searcher texts) for redundancy.

Weaknesses

• Illegal card loadout (Forbidden Baronne de Fleur, over-limit Pot of Prosperity).
• Low consistency from 48-card main deck and conflicting normal monsters.
• Limited and restrictive extra-deck requirements (Link/Synchro only).
• No reliable post-side plan or matchup data.

Critical choke points

• Over-limit Pot of Prosperity and Forbidden Baronne de Fleur create legality and consistency choke points.
• Lack of stable resource engine (D6) limits comeback potential.
• Extra deck locked to restrictive Link/Synchro conditions.

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality violations from banlist (Forbidden Baronne de Fleur, Pot of Prosperity over limit).; Card text and restriction data from evidence pack.
• Observed: Hand-trap count (10), searcher count (18), negation count (11).; Extra deck breakdown (10 Link, 5 Synchro).
• Inferred: P(≥1 starter) from hypergeometric calculation using copy counts.; D1–D14 scores derived from rule-based mapping of observed constraints.; Combo ceiling/floor inferred from best-line text and lack of parsed boards.
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample).; Matchup coverage and tournament reliability (no tournament link).
• Data gaps: No combo parse data — combo floor/median/ceiling inferred from text. No archetype usage statistics — core group not defined by usage stats. No tournament or match record — archetype meta-share and per-pilot performance absent. No win-rate, brick rate, or turn-order metrics in YGOVN. No post-side performance or matchup outcome data.
