Virtual World Deck #625449 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 54 / Extra 16 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Virtual World Extra Deck beaters and Xyz/Synchro boards (Tiger - Fufu, Kyubi - Shenshen, Phoenix - Fanfan), inferred from card text only; Synchro beaters from the Extra Deck (Cosmic Blazar Dragon, Crimson Dragon) once a board is established
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Virtual World monsters (Jiji, Lulu, Lili, Roshi) and send one Monster, one Spell and one Trap from the Deck to the GY to Special Summon them, then use hand traps (Ash Blossom, Maxx C, Infinite Impermanence) to protect the line (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the 11 hand traps and Infinite Impermanence to disrupt the opponent's first board, then rebuild through Virtual World Gate recursion and the Extra Deck (Inferred)
• Recovery: Recover from the GY through Virtual World Gate - Chuche and Gate - Qinglong, which can banish from the GY to add or negate, and rebuild with Virtual World monsters (Inferred)
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered, so no post-side plan can be evaluated

Why it scores here

The deck is Illegal in OCG: Droll & Lock Bird is run three times against a limit of one, Called by the Grave is Forbidden, and the Extra Deck holds 16 cards against a maximum of 15. Under the rubric it is therefore capped at 30 and treated as a theoretical, structural-only read. The structural read uses a Midrange weight profile. The Virtual World core is 15 copies with about an 82% chance of at least one piece in a five-card opening hand (Inferred), and the deck has strong interaction density from 11 hand traps and several board-wipe and negation spells (Inferred from card text). Consistency and brick management are held back by the 44 off-archetype copies (exact-name purity 37%), the lack of recorded boards, and the absence of a Side Deck. Popularity and the archetype's usage statistics confirm a real list but were not used as a power input, and no card scores were averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 51, Going First ≈ 52, Going Second ≈ 48, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: Illegal list: copy limit, Forbidden card and Extra Deck overflow (-12). Final formula: No reliable metagame, so Final = 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability - legality modifier: 0.80*51 + 0.20*40 = 48.8; minus 12 = 36.8; deck is Illegal, so capped at 30 and labelled theoretical/structural-only

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.82 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.18 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Eleven hand traps and Infinite Impermanence give several answers to one disruption
• Virtual World core of 15 copies is reliably reachable in the opening hand
• Layered end-board removal and negation (Heavy Storm, Feather Duster, Skill Drain, Dominus Purge)
• Large Extra Deck with real closing threats (Fufu, Kyubi, Cosmic Blazar Dragon)

Weaknesses

• Illegal in OCG: copy limit exceeded and a Forbidden card is run
• Extra Deck is one card over the limit
• 44 off-archetype copies lower engine coherence
• No Side Deck, so no post-side plan
• No recorded combos, so ceiling and median are unmeasured

Critical choke points

• The three-type Special Summon requirement for Virtual World hand monsters (Monster, Spell and Trap in the GY)
• Reliance on Virtual World Gate cards to recover from disruption
• Droll & Lock Bird and Called by the Grave are illegal as built, so the list cannot be played as is

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: Droll & Lock Bird run 3 vs limit 1; Called by the Grave Forbidden and run once; Extra Deck 16 vs maximum 15; Main Deck 54 cards and Side Deck 0 cards; Copy histogram 14/5/10 across 29 distinct Main Deck names; Exact-name purity 37.1%
• Inferred: Virtual World core opening-hand probability about 0.82; Brick proxy about 0.18; Interaction density and resilience from hand-trap and removal text; Recovery plan through Gate recursion
• Provisional: Median combo output and matchup fit (no recorded boards or dated metagame sample); Tournament reliability
• Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link — archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN (going-first/second, matchup, game-level, brick/starter/OTK rates) — those signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied No Side Deck registered (side_count 0) Deck title is null, so the archetype name is used as the label
