Deck — Deck Power Evaluation
Final Contextual Deck Power: 40/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)
| Overall score | Value |
|---|---|
| Structural Deck Power | 55 |
| Going First | 55 |
| Going Second | 50 |
| Meta Power | provisional |
| Tournament Reliability | 45 |
- Primary strategy: Combo

- Format: ocg
Legality
Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).
Identity & game plan
- Win condition: Ritual or Extra Deck boss (Gishki Zielgigas, Evigishki Neremanas, Divine Arsenal, Super Starslayer TY-PHON, Tri-Brigade Arms Bucephalus II) summoned through Gishki Ritual Spells and Gishki/Aquamirror searches; Link and Xyz beats from the 7 Link and 5 Xyz Extra Deck monsters, with Marincess and Code Talker support
- Turn 1 (going first): Search a Gishki monster with Gishki Abyss, Gishki Vision or Salvage, then Ritual Summon a boss with a Gishki Aquamirror or Nekromirror. Hand traps (Infinite Impermanence, Droll-style cards) protect the setup.
- Turn 2 (going second): Hold Infinite Impermanence, Nibiru and Artifact Lancea to answer the opponent's board, then rebuild through Focused Aquamirror and the Ritual Spells. Text-only read, not tested.
- Recovery: Salvage and Focused Aquamirror return Gishki monsters from the GY; Gishki Aquamirror can shuffle back from the GY to revive a Ritual boss.
- After siding: No side deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan (not evaluable).
Why it scores here
The deck's core engine is real: 14 copies of the Gishki/Evigishki archetype core give an estimated 78% chance of at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred). The Ritual chain and the 16 searcher-text cards suggest it can reach a boss from most hands, but the score rests on structure, not measured boards, because no combos were supplied. Interaction is broad (11 hand-trap-tagged cards, 8 negation-text cards), but it is spread across tech cards with few copies each, so it adds layers without guaranteeing a clean answer. The list is Illegal in OCG: three copies of Droll & Lock Bird exceed the Limited cap, and Called by the Grave and Triple Tactics Talent are Forbidden. Under the legality rule the deck is capped and labelled structural-only; popularity and archetype usage were not counted as power, and card scores were not averaged into the deck score.
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | Engine Accessibility & Consistency | 65 | P(at least one of 14 Gishki core copies in a 5-card hand) = 0.78; ritual chain estimated to be live by turn 2 (Inferred) |
| D2 | Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management | 50 | Many 1-copy tech and hand-trap slots and ritual-dependent Gishki monsters create dead-card risk; no brick rate measured (Inferred) |
| D3 | Combo Conversion & Ceiling | 60 | Boss ceiling from Gishki Zielgigas, Evigishki Neremanas and Extra Deck Xyz/Link finishers, from card text only; no recorded boards (Inferred) |
| D4 | Combo Floor & Median Output | 45 | No combo boards, so the median output is unknown and set conservatively (Inferred) |
| D5 | Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy | 50 | 11 hand-trap-tagged cards and 2 Nibiru give several answers, but few independent lines are confirmed (Inferred) |
| D6 | Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind | 60 | 16 searcher-text cards and Salvage/Focused Aquamirror recursion support rebuilding after interaction (Inferred) |
| D7 | End-Board & Interaction Quality | 60 | 8 negation-text cards and 3 Infinite Impermanence give layered interaction; no durability data (Inferred) |
| D8 | Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power | 55 | Nibiru, Artifact Lancea and Dimensional Barrier challenge a board going second; no going-second split recorded (Inferred) |
| D9 | Offensive Pressure & Closing Power | 60 | High-ATK bosses (Neremanas 3000, Zielgigas 3200, Bucephalus II 3500) give closing power, but no end-board data exists (Inferred) |
| D10 | Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility | 45 | Only 27 distinct main-deck cards, but archetype purity is 27% and many slots are generic tech (Verified structure, Inferred score) |
| D11 | Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage | 65 | 15 Extra Deck slots with 7 Link, 5 Xyz, 2 Fusion and 1 Synchro give broad coverage, though several require specific materials (Verified structure) |
| D12 | Side Deck Adaptability | 20 | No side deck is registered, so post-side adaptability cannot be measured (Verified, scored low) |
| D13 | Matchup Coverage & Format Fit | 40 | No dated meta sample or tournament link; format fit is unknown (Provisional) |
| D14 | Pilotability & Error Tolerance | 45 | Ritual summoning, Xyz/Link material routing and multiple tech cards make the deck demanding to pilot (Inferred) |
How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 55, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12). Final formula: Structural 55 and TR 45 give 0.80*55 + 0.20*45 = 53; minus 12 for banlist exposure gives 41; Illegal cap applied, final score 40 (theoretical/structural-only, Meta provisional)
Probability & combo summary
- Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.78 · 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 archetype density (14 copies, 78% at least one in hand 5)
- Multiple searchers (16 searcher-text cards) and recursion through Salvage and Focused Aquamirror
- Several Extra Deck bosses with high ATK and varied summon routes
Weaknesses
- Illegal list: over copy limit for Droll & Lock Bird, and two Forbidden cards
- No side deck, so no post-side plan
- Many 1-copy tech slots with low purity (27%) and no combo data
Critical choke points
- Ritual Summon chain depends on Gishki Ritual Spells and specific Ritual monsters
- Forbidden or Limited card errors would remove key interaction if fixed
Recommended changes
| Priority | Remove | Add | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Called by the Grave and Triple Tactics Talent (Forbidden) and 2 of the 3 Droll & Lock Bird copies | Legal OCG replacements in the archetype core, such as more Gishki searchers or Ritual Spells | Fixing legality is required before the deck can receive a normal score. |
| 2 | Single-copy tech cards with weak link to the engine | Side deck for the Gishki/Aquamirror plan | A side deck is needed for post-side adaptability (D12). |
Evidence & confidence
- Verified: Deck is Illegal: 3x Droll & Lock Bird (Limited, cap 1), Called by the Grave and Triple Tactics Talent (Forbidden); Main 55 and Extra 15 fall within OCG size rules; Side 0; Archetype core 14 copies; archetype purity 27.1%
- Inferred: At least one core card in hand 5 is about 78%; Brick and interaction estimates from card text and role tags; Combo floor, median and ceiling are from text only
- Provisional: Meta Power is null: no dated metagame sample; Matchup fit (D13) has no data
- Data gaps: no combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link: archetype meta-share and pilot record absent no win-rate telemetry for this deck no side deck registered
