Deck — Deck Power Evaluation
Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)
| Overall score | Value |
|---|---|
| Structural Deck Power | 46 |
| Going First | 42 |
| Going Second | 48 |
| Meta Power | provisional |
| Tournament Reliability | 35 |
- Primary strategy: Midrange
- Secondary strategies: Toolbox
- Format: ocg
Legality
Main 55 / Extra 17 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 9 violation(s).
Identity & game plan
- Win condition: Pendulum-based Vaylantz board that Special Summons Vaylantz monsters and reaches Arktos XII - Chronochasm Vaylantz and the Link/Fusion Extra Deck threats; Solfachord and Fiendsmith Link/Fusion lines as support or alternate pressure
- Turn 1 (going first): Open with Vaylantz Pendulum monsters and Vaylantz Field Spells, place scales, and Pendulum Summon into the Link and Fusion Extra Deck threats. Interaction (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Maxx C) is held for the opponent's turn.
- Turn 2 (going second): Use the 6-card hand's hand traps (13 in the Main Deck) to answer the opponent's first board, then rebuild with Pendulum Summons. The copy limits are not met, so this is a theoretical plan only.
- Recovery: Recover through Pendulum Summons from the Extra Deck, Vaylantz Pendulum searches (Shinonome, Mad Marquess), and graveyard recursion from Mulcharmy Fuwalos and Nazuki.
- After siding: No side deck is registered, so no post-side plan can be evaluated. Adding a side deck is a prerequisite for a best-of-3 evaluation.
Why it scores here
The deck is scored as a system, not as an average of its cards. Its Pendulum core (Voltage Viscount, Saion, Shinonome, Buster Baron, Mad Marquess, all at 2-3 copies) gives a high archetype-core presence (about 96% chance of at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand, Inferred), so the engine usually comes online. The list has no recorded boards, so ceiling and median output are text-only inference and are scored low, with low confidence. Interaction is broad (Ash Blossom, Droll, Maxx C, Crossout Designator, Feather Duster, Dark Ruler No More) and gives a real going-second plan, but the list is illegal: three Forbidden cards, four cards over their Limited or Semi-Limited copy limits, and 17 Extra Deck cards against a limit of 15. That caps the score. Popularity and archetype usage were not counted as power.
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | Engine Accessibility & Consistency | 62 | P(at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand) is about 0.96 for the 25-card archetype core; 3-copy starters give about 0.25 each (Inferred) |
| D2 | Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management | 48 | 13 hand traps and 19 tech cards add dead-card risk in hands with no board; Pendulum starters mostly avoid conflicts (Inferred) |
| D3 | Combo Conversion & Ceiling | 40 | No recorded boards, so ceiling is text-only; Arktos XII and Link/Fusion threats give a real but unverified conversion (Inferred) |
| D4 | Combo Floor & Median Output | 35 | No combo data, so median output is unknown; scored from text and structure only (Provisional) |
| D5 | Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy | 45 | Several independent Pendulum and hand-trap lines, but no measured recovery after one interruption (Inferred) |
| D6 | Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind | 45 | Recursion (Mulcharmy, Nazuki) and searchers are present, but resource accounting has no evidence (Inferred) |
| D7 | End-Board & Interaction Quality | 55 | Broad interaction layer (Ash, Droll, Maxx C, Crossout, Duster, Dark Ruler No More), but three of these are over their copy limit (Verified text, Inferred quality) |
| D8 | Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power | 50 | Going-second hand-trap coverage is about 0.82 for at least one hand trap in 6 cards (Inferred); no measured board-breaking data |
| D9 | Offensive Pressure & Closing Power | 55 | Arktos XII (3000 ATK) and Crusadia Avramax (3000 ATK) are real closers; end-board ATK is verified from card data (Verified) |
| D10 | Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility | 40 | 55 Main Deck cards with 25% exact archetype purity and 54 off-archetype copies; compactness is weakened by splash (Verified composition) |
| D11 | Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage | 50 | 17 Extra Deck cards (12 Link, 3 Xyz, 2 Fusion) exceed the 15-card limit; Link coverage is good but over-limit (Verified count) |
| D12 | Side Deck Adaptability | 10 | No Side Deck at all; post-side adaptability cannot be assessed and is scored at the floor (Verified) |
| D13 | Matchup Coverage & Format Fit | 40 | No tournament link and no dated meta sample; archetype usage only (Provisional) |
| D14 | Pilotability & Error Tolerance | 45 | Multi-theme Pendulum scale and Link/Fusion sequencing is complex but manageable for a practiced pilot (Inferred) |
How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Balanced. Structural ≈ 46, Going First ≈ 42, Going Second ≈ 48, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); oversized Extra Deck (-4). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers = 0.80*46 + 0.20*35 - 12 = 31.8, capped at 30 because the list is Illegal (theoretical only)
Probability & combo summary
- Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.83 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.04 (all Inferred)
- Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
- Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines
Strengths
- Core Pendulum engine with 2-3 copies of each starter gives high opening access (Inferred)
- Broad interaction layer for the opponent's turn (Verified text)
- Real closers at 3000 ATK in the Extra Deck (Verified)
Weaknesses
- Illegal list: three Forbidden cards and four over-limit cards (Verified)
- Extra Deck is 2 cards over the OCG limit (Verified)
- No Side Deck, so no post-side plan (Verified)
- Splash-heavy build: 25% exact archetype purity (Verified)
Critical choke points
- Pendulum Zone scale placement: Vaylantz Pendulum starters need the right scales to summon into the Extra Deck threats
- Heavy reliance on hand traps for going-second interaction, which fails if the opponent has no targets
Recommended changes
| Priority | Remove | Add | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Called by the Grave, D/D/D Wave High King Caesar, Fossil Dyna Pachycephalo, Moon of the Closed Heaven | Legal replacements from the OCG pool (for example a Vaylantz or Pendulum staple) | Forbidden cards make the list illegal; the deck cannot be played as built |
| 2 | One Droll & Lock Bird, one Maxx C, one Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring | Legal-count replacements or Limited-safe options | Copy limits are exceeded; each excess copy must be removed |
| 3 | Two Extra Deck cards | None (Extra Deck size only) | Extra Deck must be 15 or fewer cards in OCG |
| 4 | None | A 10-15 card side deck | A Side Deck is needed for any best-of-3 evaluation and for matchup adjustment |
Evidence & confidence
- Verified: Legality: 55 Main, 17 Extra, 0 Side; 7 copy-limit violations; 3 Forbidden cards run; Card text and stats for all 55 Main and 17 Extra cards; Composition: 25% exact archetype purity, 13 hand traps, 19 tech
- Inferred: Opening-hand access for the Vaylantz core (hypergeometric estimate); Going-second hand-trap coverage (about 0.82 with 6 cards); Interaction quality from text (Ash, Droll, Maxx C, Crossout, Duster)
- Provisional: Meta Power is null; no dated metagame sample; D13 matchup fit is scored at the default; no tournament data
- Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick, starter, OTK rates) No side deck: post-side scoring is at the floor Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
