Battlin' Boxer Deck #554567 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Stun, Control
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 42 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 4 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Xyz Summon Battlin' Boxer Xyz monsters (King Dempsey, General Kaiser, Lead Yoke, Nova Kaiser) from Level 4 Boxer monsters and attack through the board; Staged Xyz boards (Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS, Super Starslayer TY-PHON) for higher-ATK finishes
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon a Level 4 Battlin' Boxer, search or revive a second Boxer, overlay into a Boxer Xyz, and hold hand traps (Ash Blossom, Effect Veiler, Infinite Impermanence) for the opponent's first response
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Ash Blossom, Effect Veiler, Battlin' Boxer Chief Second, Battlin' Boxer Promoter) to break the opponent's opening, then Xyz through the remaining board
• Recovery: Recover from the GY through Battlin' Boxing Spirits, Battlin' Boxer Switchitter, Battlin' Boxer Glassjaw, and Uppercutter's GY effects, then rebuild Xyz from revived Boxers
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan in this list

Why it scores here

The deck's 18 Battlin' Boxer core copies give a high chance of opening at least one engine card (P(core in 5-card opening hand) is about 0.95, Inferred), and the Level 4 Boxer base feeds several Boxer Xyz monsters. Its 9 hand traps and about 16 negation-text cards give it real interaction, with about 79% odds of at least one hand trap in a 6-card going-second hand (Inferred). Its ceiling and median output cannot be measured because no recorded boards exist, so combo conversion is scored from card text only. The score comes from consistency, interaction and recursion on the system, not from Battlin' Boxer's popularity or from averaging individual card scores. Because four Forbidden or over-limit copies make the list illegal in OCG, the final score is capped low and the evaluation is structural only.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary, Stun secondary; the weights below are the Midrange profile. Structural ≈ 57, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12); illegal list cap (-14); no side deck (0). Final formula: Computed 0.80*Structural(57.3) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(50) = 55.8, then -12 banlist-exposure modifier = 44, then capped at 30 because the deck is Illegal (legality cap, not a context modifier)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.95 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.05 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Dense Battlin' Boxer core (18 copies) that opens reliably
• 9 hand traps and 16 negation-text cards give layered interaction
• Strong Xyz end-boards (Kaiser, Dempsey, Zeus, TY-PHON)
• Multiple GY recovery routes for the Boxer engine

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: 3 Forbidden copies and 1 copy over the Semi-Limited limit
• Main Deck is 42 with 25 off-archetype copies, diluting the engine
• No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptation
• No recorded boards, so the ceiling and median are unmeasured

Critical choke points

• Boxer Xyz summons depend on Level 4 Boxers and the Xyz overlay chain, so one stopped Boxer can cut the line
• Once the illegal copies are removed, Main falls to 39 and must be refilled to reach the 40-card minimum

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 42 and Extra 15 are within OCG size rules (Main 40-60, Extra 0-15); Four banlist violations: Ash Blossom 3 vs 2, Called by the Grave, Triple Tactics Talent and Dugares are Forbidden or over limit; Copy histogram, archetype purity and 14 Xyz plus 1 Link are from the export; No Side Deck is registered
• Inferred: 18 core Boxer copies give P(at least one in 5) ≈ 0.95; 9 hand traps give ≈ 0.79 chance of at least one going second; Interaction breadth read from negation and removal text; Xyz board ceilings read from card text only
• Provisional: Format fit and matchup coverage with no dated meta sample
• Data gaps: no combos supplied, so combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link, so archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN for this deck no Side Deck is registered, so post-side performance is unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
