Legality
Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).
Identity & game plan
- Win condition: Extra Deck synchro and fusion beaters (Stardust Dragon, Chimeratech Fortress Dragon, Black Rose Dragon, Blackwing Armor Master) converting board advantage from trap and removal interaction; Machina Force and Gorz as large single-body threats reached through Machina and Lightsworn recursion or search
- Turn 1 (going first): Open with a 5-card hand and hope for a single usable starter; no reliable two-card bootstrap is evidenced. Use D.D. Crow or Machina Gearframe search to find a playable line, then hold traps for the Battle Phase.
- Turn 2 (going second): Use the 6-card hand's interaction (Dimensional Prison, Bottomless Trap Hole, Mirror Force, Torrential Tribute, Trap Stun) to slow the opponent, then convert with a synchro or fusion beater.
- Recovery: Recover through Machina Gearframe and Charge of the Light Brigade searches and Pot of Avarice recursion; the evidence does not show a dependable recovery route.
- After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no side deck (Side Deck size 0), so there is no post-side plan.
Why it scores here
The deck does not form a single engine. It mixes Machina, Lightsworn, Blackwing, D.D., Monarch, Hole and Cyber Dragon cards, with only 3 exact Nimble-name copies (exact-name purity 4.3%), so the opening hand has no reliable bootstrap: each 3-copy card is in the opening 5 only about 25% of the time (Inferred, hypergeometric). The interaction suite (Dimensional Prison, Bottomless Trap Hole, Mirror Force, Torrential Tribute, Trap Stun, Dust Tornado) and the 15-card Extra Deck give it real endboard and closing tools, which earns the mid-range scores on D7 and D11. The score is not an average of card scores and does not reward the deck's popularity; there are no recorded boards, no tournament link and no side deck. It is capped as an illegal list because three Forbidden cards are run at one copy each, so the score is structural and theoretical only.
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | Engine Accessibility & Consistency | 30 | P(>=1 3-copy card in 5-card opening hand) ≈ 0.25; no two-card bootstrap evidenced (Inferred) |
| D2 | Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management | 35 | 13 single-copy cards and 13 trap cards in 55 main; no archetype core above 2 copies; brick risk high (Inferred) |
| D3 | Combo Conversion & Ceiling | 30 | No parseable boards (combo data total 0); ceiling is text-only (Inferred) |
| D4 | Combo Floor & Median Output | 25 | No recorded boards, so no median output can be measured; scored from text only (Inferred) |
| D5 | Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy | 35 | Two searchers (Gearframe, Charge of the Light Brigade) and Plaguespreader Zombie give partial redundancy; no independent second line evidenced (Inferred) |
| D6 | Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind | 40 | Searchers and Pot of Avarice exist, but no resource profile data; grind is text-based (Inferred) |
| D7 | End-Board & Interaction Quality | 55 | Six trap and spell interaction cards plus Stardust Dragon negation; Heavy Storm is illegal and removed from scoring (Inferred from text) |
| D8 | Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power | 45 | Going-second split unavailable; board breakers are limited to Dimensional Prison and Mirror Force plus synchro beaters (Inferred) |
| D9 | Offensive Pressure & Closing Power | 45 | Large bodies (Machina Force 4600 ATK, Stardust Dragon 2500, Gorz 2700) but closing depends on reaching them (Inferred) |
| D10 | Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility | 40 | 55 main cards over 30 distinct names, 16 cards at 2-3 copies; within size rules but low coherence (Verified count, Inferred quality) |
| D11 | Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage | 55 | 13 Synchro and 2 Fusion across 15 slots; full Extra Deck with broad coverage, though Chimeratech needs Cyber Dragon (Verified composition, Inferred use) |
| D12 | Side Deck Adaptability | 10 | Side deck is empty (Side Deck size 0); no post-side adaptability possible (Verified) |
| D13 | Matchup Coverage & Format Fit | 40 | Archetype share unavailable (tournament data not available); format fit is provisional (Provisional) |
| D14 | Pilotability & Error Tolerance | 40 | Multiple synchro and Machina sequencing steps with no combo examples to measure decision load (Inferred) |
How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Toolbox. Structural ≈ 38, Going First ≈ 31, Going Second ≈ 33, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 30. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-6). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) + ContextModifiers; illegal list capped as structural-only (0.80*38.1 + 0.20*30 = 36.5, minus 6 banlist exposure = 30.5, rounded to 30)
Probability & combo summary
- Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.25 · 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
- Deep Extra Deck (13 Synchro, 2 Fusion) with several strong beaters
- Six trap and spell interaction cards with broad removal text
- Searchers (Gearframe, Charge of the Light Brigade, Lyla-type recursion) for some consistency
Weaknesses
- Three Forbidden cards make the list illegal in TCG
- No coherent engine: 67 of 70 archetype-related copies are off-name
- Low probability of key cards in the opening hand (about 25% for 3-copy cards)
- No side deck, so there is no post-side plan
Critical choke points
- Forbidden cards must be removed before the deck is playable in TCG
- Machina Force and Chimeratech need their enabler cards in hand, which the evidence does not show is reliable
Recommended changes
| Priority | Remove | Add | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Heavy Storm, Fossil Dyna Pachycephalo, XX-Saber Gottoms | Legal, Unlimited replacements that fill the same functional role (interaction, Extra Deck beater, or floodgate substitute) | All three are Forbidden in TCG (0 legal copies); the deck cannot receive a normal score until they are removed. |
| 2 | Single-copy off-archetype cards with no engine link | Cards that support the chosen primary engine, or a dedicated side deck (up to 15 cards) | Coherence and brick risk drive D1 and D2; a side deck is needed for D12. |
Evidence & confidence
- Verified: Illegal status: 3 Forbidden cards at 1 copy each (legality.violations); Main 55 and Extra 15 are within size rules; Side 0; Exact-name archetype purity 4.3% (composition.archetype purity)
- Inferred: Opening-hand probabilities for key cards (~0.25 for 3-copy cards); Brick risk and interaction quality read from card text; Going-first and going-second plans derived from card text and probabilities
- Provisional: Format fit and matchup coverage (no archetype share or dated meta)
- Data gaps: No combos supplied; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry exists for this deck No side deck, so post-side adaptability cannot be evaluated Deck title is null
