Legality

Main 60 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 4 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Drytron boards (Alpha Thuban, Zeta Aldhibah, Delta Altais, Gamma Eltanin at 2000 ATK) backed by Extra Deck closers such as Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS, Super Starslayer TY-PHON and Elder Entity N'tss; Voiceless Voice and Herald Ritual/Synchro boards that convert through Saffira, Sauravis and Nibiru
  • Turn 1 (going first): Search a Ritual Spell and Ritual Monster, use Drytron Nova to Special Summon a Drytron, then extend through Drytron tributes into a 2000 ATK board
  • Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Herald of Orange Light, Maxx C and Nibiru as hand traps against the opponent's first summon, then rebuild through Lo or Saffira
  • Recovery: Recover through searchers (Eva, Trias Hierarchia, Saffira, Benten) and Blessing or Radiance of the Voiceless Voice to re-search Ritual Spells and monsters from the GY
  • After siding: No side deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck is Illegal: Super Polymerization, Herald of Orange Light, Maxx C and Called by the Grave all exceed their current Master Duel limits, and Called by the Grave is Forbidden. Under the rubric this caps the final score low and makes the evaluation structural-only. Structurally the list reliably reaches a Drytron or Ritual board through searchers and Drytron Nova, and its Extra Deck closers (Divine Arsenal, Super Starslayer, Elder Entity N'tss) give it real offensive power. Its interaction is broad (12 hand traps and 15 negation-text cards), so it can contest the opponent's first summon when going second. The score is held back by weak archetype coherence (16% exact-name purity, with 63 off-archetype copies), a high tech and generic count, no side deck, and no recorded boards to confirm a median output. The score does not come from Drytron being a popular archetype, and card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 58 P(at least one searcher text card in opening 5) ≈ 0.93; the Drytron engine needs Nova plus a specific Drytron, which is only partly redundant (Inferred)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 50 20 spells and 12 hand traps against 7 ritual monsters; several dead-in-hand risks and tribute requirements (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 55 No parseable boards; the ceiling is read from card text (Drytron to Divine Arsenal, Sauravis, Saffira) (Inferred)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 42 combo data is empty, so the median is unknown and set low on text alone (Inferred)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 55 Redundancy comes from 12 hand traps and searchers, but the Drytron line has few independent starts (Inferred)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 62 Searcher text on 24 cards plus Maxx C and Eva/Trias card advantage (Inferred)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 66 15 negation-text and 22 removal-text cards; Called by the Grave is Forbidden and Crossout Designator is Limited (Verified flags, Inferred quality)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 58 P(at least one hand trap in 6 cards going second) ≈ 0.75 (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 72 Nibiru 3000, Zeus 3000, Sauravis 2600/2800 and Super Starslayer 2900 give strong closing bodies (Verified stats)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 40 16% exact-name archetype purity and 63 off-archetype copies on a full 60-card main (Verified composition, Inferred efficiency)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 55 14 distinct Extra cards across Link, XYZ, Fusion and Synchro; several need specific materials (Inferred)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 20 No side deck is registered, so adaptability cannot be scored (Verified)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 50 No tournament link or dated meta sample; Provisional
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 40 Several branching tribute and search decisions per turn and a long Ritual path (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 54, Going First ≈ 56, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); no side plan (-4). Final formula: Theoretical: 0.80*54 + 0.20*45 = 52.2, then modifiers -12 = 40.2. Capped to 30 because the deck is Illegal (structural-only, no normal Final score). Meta Power is null (Provisional).

Probability & combo summary

  • Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.23 · 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

  • Dense searcher and card-advantage text (24 searchers)
  • Broad interaction: 12 hand traps and 15 negation-text cards
  • Strong Extra Deck closers with 3000 ATK boards

Weaknesses

  • Illegal copy counts on four cards, including a Forbidden card
  • Low archetype purity (16%) and 63 off-archetype copies
  • No side deck and no recorded boards

Critical choke points

  • Drytron Nova plus one Drytron monster for the core Drytron line
  • Ritual Spell and Ritual Monster pairing for Voiceless Voice and Herald starts
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 1 Called by the Grave 1 Legal-limit card (e.g. a 1-copy tech or extra Drytron) Forbidden card must leave the deck to make the list legal
2 1 Super Polymerization 1 Drytron card Brings Super Polymerization to its Semi-Limited limit of 2 and adds archetype density
3 1 Maxx C and 1 Herald of Orange Light 2 archetype or generic cards Brings both Limited cards to 1 copy and reduces off-archetype copies

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Four legality violations (Super Polymerization, Herald of Orange Light, Maxx C, Called by the Grave); Main 60, Extra 15, Side 0 are within Master Duel size rules; Card stats and texts from the evidence pack
  • Inferred: Consistency and brick estimates from hypergeometric values; Engine and interaction quality from card text; Going-first and going-second splits from card text and hand-trap probabilities
  • Provisional: Meta and matchup fit (no dated meta sample)
  • Data gaps: No combos supplied, so floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link, so meta-share and pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchup or brick rate No side deck registered Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample
