Mimighoul Deck #655455 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 60 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Mimighoul board presence with floodgate-style field and flip-to-opponent pressure, closed by high-ATK Xyz and Link bosses (Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS, Super Starslayer TY-PHON, D/D/D Wave High King Caesar) that are listed in the Extra Deck; Mitsurugi Ritual lines (Ame no Murakumo or Ame no Habakiri) for a large ritual boss; Fiendsmith and K9 lines as alternate boards
• Turn 1 (going first): Mimighoul Maker or Mimighoul Dungeon to add the next Mimighoul and build a field-based floodgate, backed by a Mimighoul Master or Giant Mimighoul Xyz line
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Ash Blossom, Droll and Lock Bird, Maxx C) to break the opponent's turn, then a Mitsurugi negate or Crossout Designator line into a boss; no declared going-second plan beyond this (Inferred)
• Recovery: Searchers are dense (27 searcher-text cards) and Mimighoul Dragon and Mitsurugi Prayers can rebuild a hand; the Extra Deck supplies multiple Xyz and Link routes (Inferred)
• After siding: None. The deck has 0 Side Deck cards, so there is no post-side plan.

Why it scores here

The deck's Structural score comes from the system: the Mimighoul core (24 archetype cards, about 93 percent chance of at least one in a 5-card opening hand) gives a live engine often, and 27 searcher-text cards plus Extra Deck Xyz and Link routes keep it recoverable. Interaction is dense (6 hand traps, 9 negation-text cards, 13 removal-text cards), which earns the end-board score, while the flip-to-opponent Mimighoul floodgate is a real board tool. Ceiling and median output score only modestly because there are no recorded boards, so combo evidence is text-only. The score is not based on Mimighoul's popularity and card scores were not averaged. The deck is Illegal in Master Duel (3 Ame no Habakiri over the Semi-Limited limit, 3 Mitsurugi Prayers over the Limited limit, and 1 Forbidden Called by the Grave), so it is capped at 30 and reported as theoretical or structural only. It also has no side deck, which removes any post-side plan.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 53, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 45, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-8); no_post_side_plan (-4). Final formula: No reliable metagame, so Meta is provisional: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers = 0.80*53 + 0.20*45 - 12 = 39, then capped to 30 because the deck is Illegal (theoretical or structural only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.93 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.07 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Core engine is live in most opening hands (about 93 percent with at least one Mimighoul-core card)
• Dense searcher text (27 cards) and multiple Extra Deck routes (Xyz, Link, Fusion)
• Layered interaction: 6 hand traps, negation and removal text, and a Mimighoul floodgate
• High-ATK Extra Deck bosses (2400 to 3000 ATK)

Weaknesses

• Illegal in Master Duel as built: 3 Ame no Habakiri (limit 2), 3 Mitsurugi Prayers (limit 1), 1 Called by the Grave (Forbidden)
• No Side Deck: zero post-side adaptation
• Low archetype purity (20 percent exact name) with 8 sub-archetypes spread across the list
• No recorded boards, so ceiling and median are text-only inference

Critical choke points

• Mitsurugi lines depend on Mitsurugi Prayers and Ame no Habakiri, which are over the legal copy limit
• Floodgate and Mimighoul Master plans need a Mimighoul board presence on turn 1 or 2
• Called by the Grave is Forbidden in this format and cannot be played

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Deck is Illegal in Master Duel: 3 Ame no Habakiri (limit 2), 3 Mitsurugi Prayers (limit 1), 1 Called by the Grave (Forbidden); Main 60 and Extra 15 are within the master-duel size rules; Side is 0 (legal, no side plan); Composition counts: 27 searcher-text, 6 hand-trap, 9 negation-text, 13 removal-text cards; Extra Deck: 9 Xyz, 4 Link, 2 Fusion; archetype exact-name purity 20 percent
• Observed: Usage stats: Mimighoul Maker, Mulcharmy Fuwalos and Mimighoul Dragon are present at 100 percent inclusion in the archetype sample
• Inferred: P(at least 1 core card in a 5-card opening hand) ≈ 0.93 (hypergeometric, Main Deck); Going-second hand-trap availability ≈ 0.48; Structural weights and dimension scores are text-based, not measured from boards
• Provisional: Meta Power is null: no dated metagame sample and no tournament_context; D13 matchup and format fit is excluded from the Structural calculation
• Data gaps: no combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchup or brick rate Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample one guide snippet (Vietnamese) with no section detail
