Fur Hire Deck #465635 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 62/100 (±5 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 60 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Swarm and overwhelm with Fur Hire monsters while using Runick removal to control the board; Finish with high‑ATK Extra‑Deck monsters (Rafale, Dyna, etc.)
• Turn 1 (going first): Special Summon a Fur Hire monster via Rookie or Beat, then search and add more Fur Hire cards to build a solid board
• Turn 2 (going second): Activate Runick Quick‑Play spells on opponent’s turn to banish cards and summon Runick monsters, then Link/Fusion summon for pressure
• Recovery: Use Runick discard/draw effects and Wiz’s discard‑negate to regain resources after disruption
• After siding: No side deck; rely on core engine and flexible extra‑deck options

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens with a Fur Hire or Runick starter in about 78% of opening hands, letting it begin a swarm or a removal chain. Its many independent special‑summon lines and discard‑draw effects give good resilience and allow it to recover after disruption. While it lacks a high‑damage combo, it can apply steady pressure with mid‑range monsters and finish with powerful Extra‑Deck cards. The large, mixed‑archetype main deck and lack of a side deck lower consistency and adaptability, but the abundant removal and negation provide solid interaction. Popularity of the archetype does not affect the score; the evaluation is based on system‑level synergy and consistency.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 62, Going First ≈ 70, Going Second ≈ 73, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 60. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.78 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.22 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• High engine consistency (≈78% starter in opening hand)
• Abundant removal and negation options
• Strong going‑second tools via Runick Quick‑Play spells
• Flexible extra‑deck with multiple Link/Fusion choices

Weaknesses

• Low archetype purity and many off‑archetype filler cards
• No side deck limits adaptability against specific matchups
• Resource‑heavy effects (tribute, skip battle phase) can slow momentum
• Complex decision tree reduces pilotability

Critical choke points

• Reliance on having a Fur Hire monster on field for many effects
• Skipping Battle Phase after activating Runick spells can leave you vulnerable
• Board wipes can reset the engine if recovery resources are exhausted

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality status Legal; Card text excerpts for all listed cards; Hypergeometric probabilities for core group; Usage statistics indicating core card presence
• Inferred: All dimension scores derived from probabilities, card roles, and deck composition; Engine consistency, brick rate, resource economy, interaction quality, etc.
• Provisional: Matchup/format fit due to lack of tournament data; Meta power (null/provisional)
• 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
