Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Board control into Gravekeeper's / Necrovalley fusion and Xyz pressure, with no consistent single finisher evidenced; Xyz beatdown (Gustav Max, Ophion, Ty-Phon) after the opponent's board is cleared
  • Turn 1 (going first): Open Necrovalley or a Gravekeeper's Commandant / Spiritualist starter, hold Solemn traps for the opponent's first summon, then convert Necrovalley into a Fusion through Gravekeeper's Spiritualist
  • Turn 2 (going second): Use Solemn Strike, Solemn Warning, Solemn Judgment, Raigeki and Harpie's Feather Duster to strip the opponent's board, then rebuild with the Gravekeeper's Spy-style searchers and Xyz extenders
  • Recovery: Pot of Duality and Pot of Prosperity refill the hand; Gravekeeper's Headman and Necrovalley Throne recover the Level 4 Gravekeeper's monsters from the GY
  • After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no Side Deck (side_count 0), so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a system, not as an average of its cards. Its engine (Necrovalley plus Gravekeeper's monsters) is real but narrow: the exact-name Gravekeeper's purity is only 27%, and 51 of 70 copies are off-archetype staples, traps and Xyz extenders. Interaction is the strongest part of the list (Solemn Strike, Solemn Warning, Solemn Judgment, Raigeki, Harpie's Feather Duster, Skill Drain), which earns D7 but does not raise the ceiling. Conversion is weak: there are no recorded boards, no usage-stat core present, and the best Gravekeeper's starters appear in roughly 25% of opening 5-card hands at 3 copies. Popularity and archetype meta-share earned no points, and the score is capped because the list breaks the copy limits for Card of Demise, Solemn Warning and Solemn Judgment, so it is evaluated as theoretical/structural only.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 40 P(≥1 Necrovalley or Commandant in opening 5) ≈ 0.25 per 3-copy card; P(≥1 searcher-text card in opening 5) ≈ 0.65 across 10 searcher copies (Inferred)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 35 No hand traps; 17 tech and 14 negation-text cards in the main deck imply many dead cards in hand without the right board (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 30 combos_evidence has 0 parseable boards; ceiling is text-only, with Necrovalley → Spiritualist Fusion and Xyz Summons as the main route (Inferred)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 25 No recorded boards exist, so median output cannot be measured; the floor is inferred as low given the copy-heavy Normal Spell/Trap base (Inferred)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 35 Two Solemn negations and Pot card refills give redundancy, but only one Necrovalley engine and no independent second line are evidenced (Inferred)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 40 Pot of Duality, Pot of Prosperity and Necrovalley Throne refill the hand; Card of Demise and Royal Tribute cost cards (Inferred from card text)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 55 Three Solemn negations, Skill Drain and Ophion/Steelswarm Xyz negation effects; 14 negation-text and 23 removal-text cards (Verified text, Inferred quality)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 35 Solemn Judgment and Solemn Warning answer a going-second board, but no going-second split is recorded (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 25 Gustav Max deals 2000 direct damage per use, but no end-board is evidenced and most Xyz bodies are 2500 ATK or less (Verified stat, Inferred)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 45 Main Deck 55 of 40–60 allowed, 24 distinct cards, 27% exact-archetype purity; 13 copies of 3-copy cards add rigidity (Verified composition, Inferred)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 40 15 Extra cards: 11 Xyz, 3 Fusion, 1 Link, with three Xyz families (Lswarm, Train, Phantom Knights) spread thin (Verified composition)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 30 No Side Deck at all (side_count 0), so post-side adaptability is effectively zero for best-of-3 play (Verified)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 40 No dated metagame sample and no tournament link; archetype share unavailable, so this is Provisional
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 35 Several decision points (Necrovalley timing, Solemn LP payments, Fusion material choice); no step-by-step combo data (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: 80% Control / 20% Combo (cap-driven). Structural ≈ 38.5, Going First ≈ 38, Going Second ≈ 36, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 30. Modifiers: Illegal list cap (-8); Banlist exposure (-4). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) = 36.8, then illegal cap applied (modifier -8) and banlist modifier applied (-4) = 25

Probability & combo summary

  • Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.25 · 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

  • Interaction density: three Solemn negations, Skill Drain, Raigeki and Harpie's Feather Duster give broad coverage
  • Hand refill through Pot of Duality, Pot of Prosperity and Necrovalley Throne
  • Gravekeeper's core (Commandant, Spiritualist, Headman, Supernaturalist) gives recursion and a Fusion route

Weaknesses

  • Illegal copy counts on three cards; the list cannot be played as built in OCG
  • Low exact-archetype purity (27%) and many off-archetype staples dilute the engine
  • No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptability
  • Low Xyz pressure: most Extra Deck bodies are 2500 ATK or less

Critical choke points

  • Necrovalley must be live for Spiritualist Fusion and most Gravekeeper's effects; no second engine is evidenced
  • Solemn LP payments (1500 / 2000 / half LP) compound when the opponent pressures early
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 1 Card of Demise, 1 Solemn Warning, 1 Solemn Judgment (to bring copies within limits) Legal-copy replacements (e.g. a non-Limited Normal Spell or extra Gravekeeper's monster) The list is Illegal as built; fixing copy limits is required before any normal score can apply
2 Off-archetype Xyz extenders with low ATK Additional Gravekeeper's Level 4 monsters or a 2nd Necrovalley-compatible starter Raises exact-archetype purity and starter access (D1, D5)
3 Some 3-copy dead-in-hand cards such as Compulsory Evacuation Device A Side Deck (up to 15 cards) with targeted answers Side Deck is empty, so D12 is at its floor

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0; Main size is within the OCG 40–60 rule; Card of Demise 3 copies vs 1 legal; Solemn Warning 3 vs 2; Solemn Judgment 2 vs 1; Exact-archetype purity 27.1% (19 of 70 archetype-relevant copies); Hypergeometric starter odds: 0.2529 for 3 copies in opening 5
  • Inferred: Interaction quality (D7) from card text and negation/removal role tags; Engine accessibility and brick rate from probabilities and composition; Going-first and going-second strength from text and interaction count
  • Provisional: Meta Power is null: no dated metagame sample; Matchup fit (D13) is unverified without tournament data
  • Data gaps: No combos supplied, so floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link, so archetype meta-share and pilot match record are absent No win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick/starter rates) No Side Deck; post-side plan cannot be evaluated Meta Power provisional: no dated metagame sample Deck title is null and no guides are attached
