Main 20 / Extra 0 / Side 0 — status: Legal.
Identity & game plan
- Win condition: Special Summon Cubic monsters (Geira Guile, Buster Gundil, Crimson Nova) and grow them with ATK boosts (Cubic Karma, Duza) for lethal attacks; Cubic Causality counters lock opposing monsters from attacking and from using their effects, letting the board stall while the Cubic monsters attack
- Turn 1 (going first): Turn 1: a Cubic monster from hand (Geira or Duza) starts the engine; Dharma or Karma converts spare Cubic cards into draws or ATK
- Turn 2 (going second): Use a set Cubic Causality on the opponent's turn to lock their first attacker, then Special Summon Cubic monsters on your turn to rebuild the board
- Recovery: Cubic Dharma and Cubic Causality can be banished from the Graveyard for value, and Duza and Geira keep feeding the Graveyard for later summons
- After siding: No sideboard in this format; the plan is fixed to the 20-card main deck
Why it scores here
The deck is a compact 20-card Cubic list with 100% exact-name archetype purity and no off-archetype cards, so its engine is coherent. Nine copies of the three main summon targets (Duza, Geira, Buster) give a high probability of at least one starter in an opening hand (about 0.97, Inferred), though these starters need other Cubic monsters on the field or in the Graveyard to work. Cubic Causality (three copies) provides the deck's interaction through attack and effect locks, and Karma and Duza add the ATK growth that closes games. The score comes from consistency, interaction and closing power on the system, not from Cubic being a popular archetype, and not from averaging individual card scores. Because no recorded boards exist for this deck, the combo floor and median are scored neutrally and the overall confidence is only Medium.
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | Engine Accessibility & Consistency | 70 | P(at least one of Duza, Geira or Buster in opening hand of 5) ≈ 0.97; starters need Cubic fodder on field or in Graveyard (Inferred) |
| D2 | Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management | 58 | Brick risk comes from hands holding only spells or traps and summon-condition monsters with no fodder; no hand traps to fill dead draws (Inferred) |
| D3 | Combo Conversion & Ceiling | 62 | No recorded boards exist; ceiling inferred from card text: Karma's +800 ATK, Buster's 3000 ATK with multiple attacks, and Causality's multi-monster locks (Inferred) |
| D4 | Combo Floor & Median Output | 50 | No recorded boards exist, so floor and median are scored neutrally and labelled as a data gap (Provisional) |
| D5 | Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy | 45 | One Causality plus two single-copy boss monsters; the deck has no hand traps and little redundancy against a single removal or negation (Inferred) |
| D6 | Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind | 55 | Dharma and Causality can be recovered from the Graveyard and Duza feeds it; resource loop is text-based only (Inferred) |
| D7 | End-Board & Interaction Quality | 65 | Three Cubic Causality with attack and effect lock, plus Vijam's negation text; strong on the field but no hand-trap layering (Inferred) |
| D8 | Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power | 50 | Going second has a 0.68 chance of holding at least one Causality in six cards; no hand traps for the opponent's turn (Inferred) |
| D9 | Offensive Pressure & Closing Power | 65 | Karma, Duza and Buster give large ATK growth and multi-attack lethal; Crimson Nova adds a 3000 ATK closer (Inferred) |
| D10 | Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility | 65 | 20-card main deck at the format minimum with eight distinct cards, maximally compact; little room to adjust (Verified) |
| D11 | Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage | 50 | No Extra Deck in this list; dimension is neutral and the format's extra slots are unused (Verified) |
| D12 | Side Deck Adaptability | 30 | No sideboard in this format, so no adaptability is available (Verified) |
| D13 | Matchup Coverage & Format Fit | 50 | No tournament or dated metagame sample; Meta Power stays provisional (Provisional) |
| D14 | Pilotability & Error Tolerance | 55 | Multiple Special Summon conditions (sending or revealing other Cubic cards) and branching lines need careful sequencing (Inferred) |
How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 57, Going First ≈ 58, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 55. Modifiers: engine compactness (2); no post-side plan (-3). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional)
Probability & combo summary
- Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.97 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.03 (all Inferred)
- Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
- Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines
Strengths
- Eight distinct cards at the format minimum: highly coherent engine with no off-archetype cards
- Three Cubic Causality give attack and effect locks that can stall an opposing board
- Karma, Duza and Buster supply large ATK growth and multi-attack lethal
Weaknesses
- No hand traps or floodgates; going-second disruption is limited to a set Causality
- Only one copy each of Vijam and Crimson Nova, the deck's key negation and closing monsters
- Starters need other Cubic monsters on the field or in the Graveyard to function
Critical choke points
- Early Cubic monster on board: Geira and Buster both need Cubic fodder to be Special Summoned
- A single removal or negation on the first Cubic monster can end the engine
Recommended changes
| Priority | Remove | Add | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | One Duza the Meteor Cubic Vessel | A second Vijam the Cubic Seed | Vijam is run as a single copy; a second copy adds negation and Seed density. Verify the card is legal in Duel Links before changing the list |
Evidence & confidence
- Verified: Main deck is 20 cards, within the 20-30 size rule for this format; Copy limits are respected and no restricted cards are present; Exact archetype purity is 100%
- Inferred: Starter probability of about 0.97 in an opening hand; Brick risk and interaction density are estimated from card text; Combo ceiling inferred from card text because no recorded boards exist
- Provisional: Meta Power and matchup fit need a dated metagame sample
- Data gaps: No recorded boards; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link; archetype meta share and pilot record are absent No win-rate or matchup telemetry exists for this deck Usage statistics list cards from several unrelated archetypes at 100% inclusion, so they add little Cubic-specific signal
