Igknight Deck #633744 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 17 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 4 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra-Deck Link/Synchro/Xyz pressure built from Majespecter and Dracoslayer Pendulum searches (no recorded boards to confirm); Dracoslayer Pendulum chains into Dinoster Power, Ignister Prominence and Majester Paladin (Inferred from card text)
• Turn 1 (going first): Pendulum-scale setup, then Majespecter searchers (Raccoon, Crow, Fox) and Porcupine or Toad to reach a Link or Xyz Extra Deck summon (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Ash Blossom x2, Maxx C, Infinite Impermanence, Nibiru) to stop the opponent's first summon, then rebuild through the Majespecter searchers (Inferred)
• Recovery: Majespecter and Dracoslayer searchers and Pot of Prosperity or Terraforming refill the hand after a board is removed (Inferred)
• After siding: None: the deck runs 0 side cards, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

This deck is scored as a system, not as an average of its card scores, and it is Illegal: three Forbidden cards (Called by the Grave, Borreload Savage Dragon, Baronne de Fleur) and 17 Extra-Deck cards against a limit of 15. The score is therefore a capped, structural-only read and is not a normal Final Contextual score. Consistency is moderate: the 12-copy Majespecter core has about a 72% chance of at least one copy in a 5-card opening hand, and the 24 searcher-text cards give about a 95% chance of at least one searcher. Interaction is a real strength, with two Ash Blossom, Maxx C, Infinite Impermanence, Majespecter Tempest and Majespecter Tornado. The deck has no recorded boards, so ceiling and median output are text-only inferences, and the archetype label Igknight does not match the cards, which are mostly Majespecter, Dracoslayer and Vaylantz (72 off-archetype copies). The deck gets no credit for its popularity and no meta-share credit, and Meta Power stays provisional and null.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 49, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 47, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12); engine conflicts (-4); Extra Deck over limit (-2). Final formula: Illegal capped: 0.80*Structural(49) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) = 48 before modifiers; modifiers -18; final 30 (theoretical/structural-only, Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.72 · 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

• Dense searcher density (24 searcher-text cards) makes an engine piece likely in the opening hand
• Layered interaction: two Ash Blossom, Maxx C, Infinite Impermanence, Majespecter Tempest and Tornado
• Strong Extra-Deck closing bodies at 2850 to 3000 ATK

Weaknesses

• Illegal in OCG: three Forbidden cards and 17 Extra-Deck cards
• Engine split across Majespecter, Dracoslayer and Vaylantz, with 72 off-archetype copies
• No side deck, so there is no post-side adaptation
• No recorded boards, so ceiling and median are unverified

Critical choke points

• Pendulum Zone setup (Majespecter or Dracoslayer scale pair) is required before the Extra-Deck engine comes online
• Extra-Deck summons depend on the Majespecter core copies (12 copies, about 72% to open one)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: Forbidden cards and Extra-Deck count 17 > 15; Copy counts and hypergeometric draw odds from the resolved list; Majespecter core 12 copies; 72 off-archetype copies
• Inferred: Consistency and brick estimates (Inferred from hypergeometric odds and card text); Interaction density from card text; Closing power from Extra-Deck ATK and text
• Provisional: Meta Power is null; D13 matchup and format fit lack a dated metagame sample
• Data gaps: No combos supplied; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN Archetype label Igknight does not match the card pool (Majespecter, Dracoslayer, Vaylantz); deck title is null Meta Power is provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
