Egyptian God Deck #463530 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 45/100 (±10 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Tempo
• Format: tcg

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 9 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Summon The Winged Dragon of Ra (Tribute Summon via Ancient Chant, or Dangers of the Divine at 4000 ATK) and close with Egyptian God Slime / Xyz beatdown; Number 97 Draglubion and Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Gustav Max (2000 direct damage per detach)
• Turn 1 (going first): Ancient Chant or a searcher (True Sun God, Walls of the Imperial Tomb, Imsety line) to fetch Ra, Tribute Summon Ra, then develop a Xyz or Slime-supported board
• Turn 2 (going second): Pivot from a 6-card hand into a searcher-to-Ra line or Dangers of the Divine; interaction is thin (Number 38, Blaze Cannon, Angel Statue - Azurune), so the plan relies on forcing a board through
• Recovery: Danger! Bigfoot / Thunderbird / Jackalope discard-to-summon redeploy bodies from hand; Ancient Chant banishes from GY to re-enable Ra; Time-Tearing Morganite draws extra
• After siding: No side deck is registered (Side Deck size 0), so there is no evidenced post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck reliably finds a searcher: the 13 searcher-text cards give about 0.88 probability of at least one in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred), so the engine is usually reachable on turn 1. Its ceiling is the Winged Dragon of Ra line and Dangers of the Divine at 4000 ATK, backed by Xyz and Egyptian God Slime bodies, but no recorded boards exist, so the median and floor are text-only estimates. The score is held back by a loose, mixed-archetype core (24.5% exact-name purity, Horus, Danger!, Slime and Ra splash), 13 singleton slots that raise brick risk, thin interaction (only a few negates), and an empty side deck. Popularity did not earn points: the usage-statistics core cards listed for this archetype are not present in this list and do not match its identity, so they were ignored. The score comes from scoring the system (access, recovery and closing power against thin interaction), not from averaging card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary; Toolbox secondary, applied as the Midrange profile only (no Toolbox adjustment). Structural ≈ 49.5, Going First ≈ 52, Going Second ≈ 46, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 42. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-1); engine conflicts (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional, no dated meta sample) = 0.80*49.5 + 0.20*42 - 3 ≈ 45

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.34 · 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

• 13 searcher-text cards give about 0.88 probability of at least one searcher in the opening 5
• Ra and Dangers of the Divine give a 4000 ATK ceiling and a Tribute-free route
• Egyptian God Slime (3000, unbreakable by battle) and Draglubion (3000) give a durable closing board

Weaknesses

• Only 24.5% of main cards share the exact Egyptian God name; Horus, Danger!, Slime, Ra and Train splash fragment the engine
• 13 singleton slots and 37 off-archetype copies raise brick risk
• Interaction is thin: only Number 38, Blaze Cannon and Azurune-level negation text
• Empty side deck (Side Deck size 0)

Critical choke points

• Ra being summonable depends on Ancient Chant or Dangers of the Divine; with neither in hand, the Tribute requirement stalls the line
• A single Xyz (Draglubion x3, Gustav Max x1) relies on Level 8 materials that the Main Deck spreads thin

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 40, Extra 9, Side 0; Legal under TCG BanList (Gustav Max 1/1 Limited, Terraforming 1/1 Limited); Copy histogram 13 singles / 3 doubles / 7 triples; exact-name purity 24.5%; Searcher-text group P(>=1 in hand5)=0.8773; 3-copy P=0.3376
• Observed: No recorded combo boards exist (total combos 0)
• Inferred: Starter access and brick estimate from the hypergeometric model; Engine conflict penalty and closing-power read from card text; Midrange weight profile chosen from the no-combo, searcher-heavy shape
• Provisional: Meta Power (null, no dated meta sample); Matchup/format fit (D13 at 50) with no tournament link
• Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference usage statistics core cards (Lunalight, Number 60, etc.) do not match the Egyptian God identity and are not present; treated as unreliable and not used for scoring no tournament link — archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry (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 Side Deck size 0 — no post-side evidence
