@Ignister Deck #632562 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 58/100 (±6 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Stun
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Link Summon a 2300-ATK Cyberse Link monster (Allied Code Talker, Dark Templar, Fire Phoenix, Transcode Talker) off a chain of @Ignister starters, then attack through the opponent's board.; Light Dragon and Wind Pegasus @Ignister as 2300-ATK Xyz/Synchro boards that also destroy spells/traps or monsters.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a @Ignister starter (Pikari, Doshin, Hiyari, Backup, Bururu), search or Special Summon a second Cyberse, and Link Summon into a 2300-ATK Link monster; keep Red Reboot for the opponent's first trap.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Red Reboot, Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit, Nibiru and Danmari/Gatchiri to answer the opponent's first board, then rebuild through Doyon and Achichi recursion into a Link Summon.
• Recovery: Banish and recycle @Ignister monsters from the GY (Doyon, Achichi, Danmari, Wizard) and re-Special Summon them to restart the Link chain.
• After siding: Side deck is empty (0 cards), so there is no post-side plan; the deck cannot adapt between games.

Why it scores here

The deck's power comes from the system: a 0.74 chance of opening at least one @Ignister core card in a 5-card hand, 0.85 chance of at least one searcher, and a Link-heavy Extra Deck (13 Link monsters) that gives a high ceiling of 2300-ATK boards. Interaction is layered across Red Reboot, Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit, Gatchiri, Danmari and Light Dragon, which earns the endboard and going-second scores. The score is held back by 27 off-archetype copies (Mulcharmy, Greed, Harpie, Cyclone, Kuriboh; 51% exact-archetype purity), which add brick and engine-conflict risk, and by the absence of recorded boards, so median output is an inference. Popularity and the archetype's usage lists were not counted: the usage-statistics block lists cards from another archetype (Maliss/Firewall), so it does not confirm this list. Card scores were not averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo primary, Toolbox secondary, weights taken from the Combo profile (no blend applied). Structural ≈ 62.8, Going First ≈ 62, Going Second ≈ 60, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 58. Modifiers: Engine conflicts / off-archetype load (-3); Banlist exposure (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.74 · 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

• Consistent engine access: 0.74 for a core card and 0.85 for a searcher in the opening hand
• High-ceiling Link ladder to 2300-ATK boards from a Link-heavy Extra Deck
• Layered interaction across hand traps, negation and destruction

Weaknesses

• 27 off-archetype copies create brick and engine-conflict risk
• Low-impact 100-ATK Mulcharmy bodies in hand
• No side deck; no post-side adaptation

Critical choke points

• Dependence on a Link Summon chain: a single disrupted starter can cut the Link ladder
• Red Reboot and Harpie's Feather Duster are the only Limited/Semi-Limited interaction, and their copy limits cap redundancy

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal under master-duel rules (40 main, 15 extra, 0 side within 0–15); Red Reboot Semi-Limited x2; Harpie's Feather Duster Limited x1 — both within limit; Composition: 13 Link, 1 Xyz, 1 Synchro in Extra; 27 off-archetype copies
• Inferred: P(≥1 core in hand 5) ≈ 0.74; P(≥1 searcher) ≈ 0.85; Going-second hand-trap P(≥1 in 6) ≈ 0.58; Link ladder ceiling of 2300-ATK boards from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup and format fit (no tournament link)
• 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 usage_statistics core list (Maliss, Firewall Dragon, Dominus Impulse) does not match this archetype; treated as unreliable and not used for scoring no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN — going-first/second and matchup rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
