Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Link/Xyz/Fusion pressure from Cyber Dragon boards, with a possible OTK line via Cyber Dragon Nova / Infinity and Chimeratech boss plays (Inferred from text and guides); Cyberdark Chimera and Cyberdark Claw grind plus Clockwork Night and Power Bond burst
  • Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon Cyber Dragon Core (searches a Cyber Spell/Trap), or Cyber Jormungardr / Cyber Dragon via Cyber Emergency, then extend into Link/Xyz boards
  • Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Maxx C, Droll & Lock Bird) to break the opponent's start, then rebuild through Cyber Dragon Core and Cyberdark searchers
  • Recovery: Cyberdark Realm and Cyberdark Claw recurrence from GY, plus Cybernetic Overflow searches after a single removal
  • After siding: Not applicable: Master Duel has no Side Deck in this format (side_count 0)

Why it scores here

This list is Illegal in Master Duel because it runs one copy of Called by the Grave, which is Forbidden, so it is capped and scored only as a structural read. The archetype core is reliably present (about 99% chance of at least one core card in the opening five, Inferred), and the searchers give it redundant access to its starters. Its ceiling comes from Cyber Dragon Nova, Infinity and Chimeratech boss lines, but no recorded boards exist, so the median output is unmeasured and is estimated only from text and guides. Interaction is broad (three Infinite Impermanence, Ash Blossom, Maxx C, Droll, Crossout Designator), but about 35 percent of hands have no starter and hand-trap-dependent openings brick often. No tournament or meta data exists, so Meta Power is null and popularity earned no points; the score was built from the system, not by averaging card scores.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 60 P(>=1 Cyber Dragon Core in opening 5) approx 0.34 across 3 copies; archetype core present at 0.99; searcher text in 21 cards (Inferred)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 55 9 hand traps and 12 tech cards in 40 cards create dead-hand risk when a hand has no starter; hand-trap group P(>=1 in 6) approx 0.81 (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 60 No parseable combos; ceiling from guide text describing OTK potential with Nova/Infinity and Chimeratech (Inferred)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 40 No recorded boards for median output; floor estimated from link/xyz extender count only (Inferred, low confidence)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 55 Multiple independent starters (Core, Jormungardr, Nachster, Herz, Cyber Dragon) and recursion via Cyberdark Realm (Inferred)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 55 21 searcher-text cards and Cyberdark Claw/Realm recursion support grind; no resource telemetry (Inferred)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 60 Infinite Impermanence x3, Ash Blossom x3, Maxx C, Droll, Cybernetic Overflow, Crossout Designator, with Called by the Grave excluded from scoring because it is illegal (Verified card text, Inferred quality)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 55 Hand traps cover the going-second window, but no going-second combo split exists (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 60 Link/Xyz closers (Nova, Infinity, Sieger, Azalea) and Chimeratech Rampage DRAGON give pressure; no board-level data (Inferred)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 55 40 main with 25 distinct cards and 17 singletons; several slots are tech/floodgate-adjacent with little consistency function (Inferred)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 60 15 Extra slots: 7 Fusion, 5 Link, 3 Xyz with broad archetype coverage; some Extra cards are flex (Verified composition)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 10 Master Duel has no Side Deck in this list (side_count 0); no post-side data (Provisional)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 40 No tournament link or dated meta sample; archetype usage stats exist only as core-inclusion (Provisional)
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 50 Multi-step Link/Xyz/Fusion sequencing and many interaction timings raise decision load (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary, Combo secondary (approximate). Structural ≈ 53, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-6); illegal_cap (-10). Final formula: Illegal list: theoretical/structural-only cap. Uncapped reference = 0.80*Structural(53) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) + Modifiers(-6) = 45; capped at 35 for illegality. Meta provisional.

Probability & combo summary

  • Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.34 · 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

  • Archetype core present in nearly every opening hand
  • Broad hand-trap and negation suite
  • Multiple Link/Xyz/Fusion closers

Weaknesses

  • Illegal copy count of Called by the Grave
  • Only one starter per 3 copies in a 5-card hand
  • 9 hand traps risk dead hands when going first

Critical choke points

  • Cyber Dragon Core / Cyber Emergency as the only reliable non-hand starter
  • Cyber Dragon Nova as the main Xyz route
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 Called by the Grave (1 copy, Forbidden) a legal card that does the same job, such as an extra copy of an existing negation or hand trap Removes the only legality violation; without it the list is legal and can receive a normal score
2 One tech slot with low archetype synergy a second Cyber Dragon Core or Cyber searcher Raises starter density on going first

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Called by the Grave is Forbidden and run at 1 copy (illegal); Master Duel main 40 and extra 15 meet size rules; Archetype core inclusion 87.5% for Cyber Emergency and Power Bond
  • Inferred: Starter access about 0.34 from hypergeometric estimate; Going-first/second split estimates; OTK ceiling from guide text
  • Provisional: Meta Power null; no dated metagame sample; D13 matchup fit
  • Data gaps: no combos supplied: floor, median, ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link: meta-share and per-pilot record absent no win-rate telemetry in YGOVN Meta Power provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
