Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Synchro/Xyz boss monsters (Black-Winged Assault Dragon, Full Armor Master, Raidraptor Ultimate Falcon); Hand-trap disruption into established board
  • Turn 1 (going first): Open Blackwing starter (Simoon/Sudri/Vata) to set Black Whirlwind and Synchro into disruptive boss with negation
  • Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps, Dominus Impulse, Forbidden Droplet to break board then swing with bosses
  • Recovery: Zephyros and Black Feather Whirlwind recursion from GY/banish
  • After siding: No side deck (Side Deck size 0) – no post-side adaptation

Why it scores here

This deck is a 55-card Blackwing‑heavy hybrid labeled Phantom Knights, so its system consistency is diluted versus a tight 40‑card build, lowering reliable opening plans. The engine can convert a Blackwing Normal Summon plus Black Whirlwind into Level 6–10 Synchros and Rank 4–10 Xyz/Links, giving a moderate ceiling, but the median output is just one or two disruptive bodies because combo records are absent and many singles are dead without setup. Interaction is broad via hand traps, Dominus Impulse, Solemn traps, and boss negations, yet the deck lacks the standard Phantom Knights core (Rusty Bardiche, Fog Blade) and runs zero side cards, capping tournament reliability. Popularity of the Phantom Knights archetype did not earn points; the score reflects system cohesion, inferred consistency, and missing side, not card averages.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 58 P(≥1 searcher-text card in 5) ≈ 0.69 from 11 copies; multiple Blackwing starters present (Inferred)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 50 55-card main with one-of techs (Rank-Up-Magic Launch, Skip Force) creates brick risk; no hypergeometric brick stat (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 65 Simoon+Whirlwind+Vata can Synchro into Black-Winged Assault Dragon (3200 ATK, counters) – ceiling moderate (Inferred)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 55 No parsed boards; median inferred as 1–2 bodies (Synchro 6/8) with hand traps (Inferred)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 55 Small World and Zephyros provide alternate routes but rely on DARK Tuner pool (Inferred)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 55 Extra deck varied but main deck 55 dilutes float/search density; GY recursion exists (Inferred)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 65 Role tags show 18 negation-text and 23 removal-text cards; bosses like Full Armor Master unaffected (Inferred)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 55 Going-second hand6 hand-trap P≈0.76 plus Forbidden Droplet/Dominus for breaking (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 55 Boss ATK up to 3500 (Ultimate Falcon, Kali Yuga) but requires setup (Inferred)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 45 Main deck 55 cards, 13 singles, off-archetype purity 97% – inefficient (Inferred)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 60 Extra deck 15 slots: 7 Synchro, 5 Xyz, 3 Link covering multiple win paths (Verified)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 0 Side count 0 – no best-of-3 adaptation possible (Verified)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 50 No tournament context supplied; matchup fit provisional (Provisional)
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 50 Synchro level adjustments and many one-ofs increase pilot decision points (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Primary Combo 100%. Structural ≈ 55, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: Oversized main deck (-5); No side deck (-3). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) + ContextModifiers

Probability & combo summary

  • Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.69 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.3 (all Inferred)
  • Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
  • Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

  • Multiple Blackwing starters and searcher cards (Simoon, Sudri, Whirlwind)
  • High interaction density via hand traps, Dominus Impulse, Solemn traps
  • Varied extra deck coverage (Synchro/Xyz/Link) for toolbox plays

Weaknesses

  • 55-card main deck dilutes consistency and increases bricks
  • Missing standard Phantom Knights core (Rusty Bardiche, Fog Blade, Foolish Burial)
  • No side deck for post-side adaptation in best-of-3

Critical choke points

  • Reliance on Normal Summon + Black Whirlwind for engine launch
  • Single copies of key extra deck bosses (Black-Winged Assault Dragon, Full Armor Master)
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 Redundant one-of tech cards (e.g., Red-Eyes Link, D/D Kali Yuga) Foolish Burial, Phantom Knights' Fog Blade, Rusty Bardiche Align with archetype core and improve engine consistency

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Legality status Legal; Card text excerpts for all listed cards; Banlist status Limited/Semi-Limited within legal copies; Extra deck breakdown 7 Synchro/5 Xyz/3 Link
  • Observed: No parsed combo boards (combo data total combos 0)
  • Inferred: Hypergeometric P(searcher-text) 0.6878; Brick estimate 0.30 from 55-card size; Ceiling/median output from card text synergy; Going-first/second power from hand-trap probabilities
  • Provisional: Matchup format fit (no tournament sample); Meta Power null
  • 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 no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN — those signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
