Vision HERO Deck #482247 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 20/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 59 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 5 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion and Link pressure from HERO monsters (Xtra HERO Dread Decimator, Elemental HERO Shining Neos Wingman, Vision HERO Trinity) built through Polymerization-style and Extra Deck summons; Destiny HERO and Evil HERO fusion boards, where Evil HERO Malicious Bane clears the field of lower-ATK monsters
• Turn 1 (going first): Search and summon through Vision HERO Faris, Elemental HERO Stratos and Vision HERO Vyon to reach a Fusion or Link Summon, holding Ash Blossom and Infinite Impermanence for the opponent's first response
• Turn 2 (going second): Open with hand traps (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Effect Veiler, Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit) to stop the opponent's starter, then rebuild through the GY-based HERO effects
• Recovery: Recursion from the GY through Vision HERO Increase, Cross Keeper and Destiny HERO - Denier to refill the board after a disruption
• After siding: Not assessable: the deck has no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a HERO starter, since 12 searcher-text cards give about a 69 percent chance of at least one searcher in the opening 5 (Inferred), but the 8 archetype-core copies give only about a 53 percent chance of an open archetype card, which holds the score down. Interaction is the deck's strongest area: 8 hand traps and 12 negation-text cards, although two of the strongest are semi-limited or forbidden. Conversion is not evidenced: no combos were supplied, so the ceiling and median come from text reading only, and both are scored low. The deck is illegal as built, with four forbidden cards and three copies of Ash Blossom against a limit of two, so the final score is capped regardless of structure. Popularity of the Vision HERO archetype did not earn points, and no card scores were averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 49, Going First ≈ 46, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); hard-garnet burden (-4). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) = 35.2 after modifiers; capped at 20 because the deck is Illegal

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.69 · 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 hand-trap package gives a consistent opening and interaction on the opponent's first turn
• Broad Extra Deck coverage: 10 Fusion and 5 Link monsters across several HERO sub-archetypes
• Recursion through the GY (Vision HERO Increase, Cross Keeper) helps recover after disruption

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: four Forbidden cards and three copies of Ash Blossom against a limit of two
• No Side Deck, so there is no post-side adaptation
• Scattered sub-archetypes (Elemental, Destiny, Vision, Evil, Masked) reduce engine coherence (exact-name purity 10.8 percent)
• No recorded combos or tournament data to verify conversion or format fit

Critical choke points

• The Extra Deck summon gate: most lines need one Fusion or Link monster, and Polymerization is only 2 copies
• Forbidden cards cannot be played in the TCG format, so any line that depends on them is not available

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Deck is Illegal: 4 Forbidden cards and Ash Blossom over its Semi-Limited limit; Main 59 and Extra 15 are inside the TCG size rules; Side is 0; Archetype-core and searcher probabilities from the hypergeometric table
• Inferred: Engine consistency and brick risk from the probability table and card text; Interaction density from hand-trap and negation role tags; Pilotability from summon-chain length
• Provisional: Format fit and meta share, since no dated meta or tournament data is attached; Post-side plan, since there is no Side Deck
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry: going-first, going-second and matchup results are unknown Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample Deck has no title and no Side Deck
