Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Synchro beatsticks (Red Dragon Archfiend, Colossal Fighter, Goyo Guardian) summoned off a Gadget-chain tuner; Machina Fortress and Stardust Dragon pressure backed by Dimensional Prison and Solemn Judgment
  • Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon Yellow/Red/Green Gadget to chain searches, then Synchro via Turbo Rocket or Drill Synchron; Inferred, no recorded boards
  • Turn 2 (going second): Bottomless Trap Hole, Dimensional Prison, Horn of Heaven and Mystical Space Typhoon to clear the board, then Red Dragon Archfiend or Colossal Fighter
  • Recovery: Re-search Gadgets from the Deck with the Gadget chain; Card Trooper and Cyber Valley draw
  • After siding: No Side Deck: no post-side plan exists in this list

Why it scores here

The deck is Illegal in OCG because it runs two copies each of two Forbidden cards (Ultimate Offering and Royal Oppression), so it does not receive a normal Final score; the 20 is a structural-only cap, and the unclamped formula gives about 37 before the cap. Structurally it reliably reaches a Gadget starter (about 61% for at least one of nine Gadget copies in a 5-card hand, Inferred) and has strong end-board interaction (Dimensional Prison, Solemn Judgment, Horn of Heaven, Stardust and Thought Ruler negations, plus 27 removal-text cards), which carries the score. Conversion is weaker: only two Tuner monsters (Turbo Rocket, Drill Synchron) back 13 Synchro Monsters, so Synchro access is the main choke point, and the list has no recorded boards, so ceiling and median are text-only inference. The score does not come from popularity (no tournament link, Gadgets usage stats not matched), and it is not an average of card scores. A Forbidden-card cut and a Synchro-tuner fix are required before this list could be scored normally.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 50 P(at least 1 of 9 Gadget starters in 5-card hand) ≈ 0.61 from hypergeometric; searcher-text P ≈ 0.72; Synchro access limited by 2 Tuners (Inferred)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 50 17 singleton slots and many non-engine traps/spells (Dimensional Prison, Solidarity, Smashing Ground, Horn of Heaven); no hand traps; moderate brick risk (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 45 No recorded boards; Gadget→Synchro conversion read from card text only (Inferred)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 40 No recorded boards; median output unknown, scored conservatively (Inferred)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 55 Three independent starter families (Gadgets, Machina, Synchron) plus several negations give partial redundancy (Inferred)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 50 Card Trooper and Cyber Valley draw and Pot of Avarice needs 5 GY monsters; limited recursion (Inferred)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 72 Dimensional Prison, Solemn Judgment (Limited), Horn of Heaven, Stardust Dragon and Thought Ruler give layered interaction; 8 negation-text cards (Inferred semantic read)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 62 Bottomless Trap Hole ×2, Dimensional Prison, Mystical Space Typhoon, Smashing Ground and Heavy Storm; Red Dragon Archfiend closes (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 66 End-board ATKs of 3000 (Red Dragon Archfiend), 2800 (Colossal Fighter, Goyo Guardian), 2500 (Machina Fortress, Stardust Dragon) (Verified stat, Inferred closing)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 40 55 main with 33 Level-0 spells/traps; 0% exact archetype purity, 70 off-archetype copies across 17 sub-archetypes (Verified composition)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 35 13 Synchro + 2 Fusion in 15 slots, but only 2 Tuner monsters in the Main Deck, so most Extra Deck slots are inaccessible (Verified count, Inferred access)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 10 Side Deck is empty (0 cards); no post-side plan (Verified)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 45 No tournament link or dated meta sample; format fit is provisional (Provisional)
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 50 Multi-step Gadget chain plus Synchro sequencing and two Tuner dependencies; moderate pilot complexity (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Balanced (default; no recorded combos, so no strategy profile applied). Structural ≈ 49.7, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-6); unrecoverable_choke_point (-3); no_side_deck (-3). Final formula: Illegal cap applied: unclamped 0.80*49.7 + 0.20*45 + modifiers (-12) ≈ 37, capped at 20 as theoretical/structural-only (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

  • Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.61 · 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

  • Layered interaction: Dimensional Prison, Solemn Judgment, Horn of Heaven, Stardust Dragon and Thought Ruler Archfiend
  • Searcher chain (Yellow, Green, Red Gadget) gives consistent early access to the Gadget engine
  • High-ATK synchro closers (Red Dragon Archfiend 3000, Colossal Fighter 2800, Goyo Guardian 2800)

Weaknesses

  • Illegal: two Forbidden cards run at 2 copies each
  • Only 2 Tuner monsters for 13 Synchro Monsters
  • Off-archetype dilution: 70 copies across 17 sub-archetypes, 0% exact archetype purity
  • Empty Side Deck

Critical choke points

  • Tuner access: Turbo Rocket and Drill Synchron are the only Tuners in the Main Deck
  • Forbidden cards (Ultimate Offering, Royal Oppression) must be cut before any normal score applies
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 Ultimate Offering ×2 and Royal Oppression ×2 Legal Tuner monsters or Gadget-compatible starters Clears the Forbidden violations so the deck can receive a normal Final score (Verified)
2 Off-archetype non-engine slots (for example Dimensional Fortress Weapon, Cyber Valley, Card Trooper) Additional Tuner monsters for the Synchro Extra Deck Improves Synchro access across 13 Synchro Monsters (Inferred)
3 None (Side Deck is empty) A 15-card Side Deck covering the main threats Gives a post-side plan for best-of-3 play (Inferred)

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Forbidden copies: Ultimate Offering ×2 and Royal Oppression ×2 (legal 0); Main 55, Extra 15, Side 0; within size rules; Limited cards: Heavy Storm, Rivalry of Warlords, Solemn Judgment (1 copy each, legal); Tuner count: 2 in Main Deck
  • Inferred: P(at least 1 Gadget starter in 5 cards) ≈ 0.61; Synchro access limited by Tuner scarcity; Interaction density reads as high 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 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/second, matchup, or brick/starter rates Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Illegal list: Forbidden cards must be removed before a normal score applies
