Deck — Deck Power Evaluation
Final Contextual Deck Power: 63/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

| Meta Power | provisional |
| Tournament Reliability | 50 |

Legality
Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s). Restricted cards run: Bystial Magnamhut (Limited), Maxx "C" (Limited), Reinforcement of the Army (Limited).
Identity & game plan
- Win condition: OTK via Salamandra/Fighting Flame Dragon fusion chain and Nibiru setup; Value stall with hand traps and disruption
- Turn 1 (going first): T1: set key fusion/trap; T2: assemble Salamandra + chain; apply pressure with board control and Nibiru threats
- Turn 2 (going second): Six-card hand disruption, negate key spawns, pivot to board control and lethal fusion finish
- Recovery: Retune with Ash Blossom, hand-trap trade, and spare backrow to rebuild board
- After siding: Side into floodgates and targeted removal; aim to stabilize vs combo and OTK paths
Why it scores here
The deck runs a high-ceiling OTK plan via Salamandra and Nibiru but is burdened by a key card ban (Maxx "C" over limit) and several Limited staples, forcing inconsistency and brick risk. Its combo conversion is strong on curve when live, yet opening reliability is undercut by restrictive tech targets and narrow disruption windows. The overall score reflects a high-skill, high-variance build that can dominate in ideal draws but collapses under predictable interference or sideboard pressure.

How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Balanced (combo primary). Structural ≈ 63, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 60, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: Illegal copy limit (-8); Banlist exposure (-5); High skill floor (-5); No meta data (-3). 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 OTK ceiling with Salamandra + Nibiru line
- Solid hand-trap disruption and backrow removal
- Good extra-deck coverage with 9 links and 5 fusions
Weaknesses
- Illegal status due to Maxx \"C\" over copy limit
- Narrow combo windows and high brick risk on dead draws
- Heavy reliance on specific targets and limited tech
Critical choke points
- Maxx \"C\" legality and consistency bottleneck
- Salamandra/Fighting Flame Dragon live dependency
- Ash Blossom as primary disruption enabler
Recommended changes
| Priority | Remove | Add | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Maxx \"C\" (Illegal; replace with consistent searcher or hand-trap) | Targeted disruption or alternate searcher to improve consistency | Over-limit copy is a hard violation and major consistency loss |
| 2 | 2x Reinforcement of the Army (Limited) | Open-role filler or additional hand traps | Limited status and narrow search target reduces resilience |
| 3 | Generic backrow (e.g., 2x Raigeki) | Tech hate or format-specific countermeasures | Improper ratio for meta and leaves gaps vs targeted bans |
Evidence & confidence
- Verified: deck structure and card texts; banlist status and copy limits
- Inferred: hypergeometric draw estimates; combo ceiling/floor inference; hand-trap brick risk
- Provisional: meta fit and matchup performance
- 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, matchup, game-level, brick/starter/OTK rates) — those signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
