Vision HERO Deck #453029 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Combo
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 42 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion or Link Summon a HERO boss (Vision HERO Trinity, Elemental HERO Wake Up Your Elemental HERO, Shining Neos Wingman) off Polymerization, Fusion Destiny or Miracle Fusion, with Xtra HERO Dread Decimator as piercing closer; Masked HERO Dark Law / Blast via Mask Change, plus Destiny HERO Plasma negation and ATK control
• Turn 1 (going first): T1 search or Special Summon a Vision HERO (Vyon, Faris, Increase) into Polymerization or Fusion Destiny for a Fusion boss; Ash Blossom and Maxx 'C' are held up as interaction
• Turn 2 (going second): Six-card hand with hand traps (Ash Blossom, Maxx 'C', Destiny HERO Denier or Dark Angel) to break the opponent's starter, then a Fusion or Link line through Polymerization
• Recovery: Recur HERO monsters from the GY through Vision HERO Increase, Destiny HERO Malicious and Denier, then re-extend via Xtra HERO Infernal Devicer searches
• After siding: No Side Deck is listed (Side Deck size 0). Master Duel does not use a post-side plan in this evaluation, so this dimension is scored as provisional.

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a HERO starter: the 27-copy archetype core has a 0.9965 chance of at least one card in a 5-card opening hand, and 9 searcher cards give about 0.72 odds of at least one searcher in hand. From there it converts into Fusion and Link bosses through Polymerization, Fusion Destiny and Miracle Fusion, and the Extra Deck closes well (Trinity, Wake Up Your Elemental HERO, Dread Decimator). Interaction is layered (5 hand traps, 8 negation cards, 13 removal-text cards), and the GY recursion keeps it live after one disruption. It is held down by the legality failure, which caps the score, and by the absence of combo boards, win rates and tournament data, so the floor and median are unmeasured. Archetype popularity did not earn points: the exact-name purity is only 14%, the engine is a cross-family mix of Elemental, Destiny and Vision HERO, and no card scores were averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 58, Going First ≈ 62, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 52. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-10). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + Modifiers (-10) = 47, then capped at 35 because the list is Illegal (theoretical, structural-only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.72 · 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

• Core HERO engine is almost always reachable (0.9965 for at least one core card in hand5)
• Layered interaction: 5 hand traps, 8 negation cards, 13 removal-text cards
• Strong Extra Deck closers: Trinity, Wake Up Your Elemental HERO, Dread Decimator
• GY recursion gives recovery after one disruption

Weaknesses

• Illegal as listed: Called by the Grave is Forbidden, and Maxx 'C' is over its Limited limit
• Cross-family engine (Elemental, Destiny, Vision) lowers exact-name purity to 14%
• No combos, win rates or tournament data, so the floor and median are unmeasured
• No Side Deck

Critical choke points

• Mask Change (2 copies) gates both Masked HERO Fusions
• Polymerization and Fusion Destiny gate most of the Extra Deck

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality status Illegal with Called by the Grave 2/0 and Maxx 'C' 2/1; Copy counts, Main 42, Extra 15, Side 0; Card text and stats from the evidence cards list; Usage stats: 25 core cards, 15 present
• Inferred: Hypergeometric odds for starter access and hand traps; Dimension scores for consistency, interaction, closing and recovery; Ceiling read from text only, since no boards were recorded
• Provisional: Meta power (null); D13 matchup/format fit (excluded from Structural); Post-side plan (no Side Deck); Tournament reliability (no tournament link)
• Data gaps: no combos supplied; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchup, brick or OTK rates Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample Side Deck is empty, so there is no post-side evidence list is Illegal as submitted, so Final Contextual is capped and the evaluation is structural-only
