@Ignister Deck #674563 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 50 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Link-5/Link-6 Ignister and Firewall boards ending in 2300+ ATK attackers (Allied Code Talker @Ignister, Firewall Dragon Darkfluid, Firewall Dragon Singularity), with Dark Templar @Ignister and Danmari @Ignister as extra bodies (Inferred from card text).; Mathmech and Salamangreat Link/Synchro board presence as a fallback when the @Ignister engine is absent (Inferred from card text and archetype_spread).
• Turn 1 (going first): Search an @Ignister or Cyberse starter (Achichi, Backup, Hiyari, Cynet Mining, Mathmech Circular) and Special Summon into a Link Summon using Extra Deck pieces; protect the line with Ash Blossom and Ghost Belle. Starter access is partial (Inferred).
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Effect Veiler, Infinite Impermanence and Nibiru as hand traps against the opponent's first board, then rebuild a Link board from the GY (Inferred).
• Recovery: Searchers (17 text hits) and Mathmech Equation / Salamangreat Circle recover the starter from the Deck or GY; Mulcharmy Fuwalos draws off opponent summons (Inferred).
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered (side_count 0), so there is no post-side plan in the export; this is a data gap, not a judgment about the deck.

Why it scores here

This is a 50-card Main Deck with only 16 exact @Ignister copies (24.6% exact-name purity), spread across Mathmech, Salamangreat, Firewall, Mulcharmy and generic staples, so the engine is diluted rather than dense. The 9-copy archetype core has an estimated 64.6% chance of at least one card in a 5-card opener, and searcher text appears on 17 copies (88.8% at least one in hand, Inferred), which supports engine access and recovery. Interaction is broad (11 hand traps and 12 negation-text cards, 79.5% chance of a hand trap in a 6-card going-second hand, Inferred), which lifts going-second and resilience. The score is pulled down by brick risk from 14 tech and 26 singleton slots, the lack of any recorded combo boards, and the absence of a Side Deck. The deck is Illegal because Called by the Grave is Forbidden and is run once, so it is capped low and assessed structurally only; popularity and meta-share earned no points, and card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 48, Going Second ≈ 55, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-8); archetype_dilution (0). Final formula: Illegal cap: theoretical/structural-only. Uncapped 0.80*Structural(52) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(40) + modifiers(-8) ≈ 42, then capped to 30 because the list is Illegal (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.89 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.35 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Deep searcher density (17 copies) gives repeatable access to the engine
• Layered hand traps and negations cover both going-first and going-second turns
• Extra Deck carries several high-ATK Link and Synchro closers

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Called by the Grave is Forbidden
• Low purity (24.6%) and many singleton tech slots raise brick and dead-draw risk
• No Side Deck and no recorded combo boards
• Multi-step Link chains are hard to pilot consistently

Critical choke points

• A single @Ignister starter in hand is needed to start the Link line
• Losing Ash Blossom and the hand traps to one opposing disruption can leave a brick hand

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main=50, Extra=15, Side=0 against master-duel size rules 40-60 / 0-15 / 0-15; Called by the Grave is Forbidden and run 1 copy (legal 0); Maxx C and Crossout Designator Limited at 1 copy each; Droll & Lock Bird Semi-Limited at 2 copies (all within limit); Archetype spread and exact-name purity 24.6% from the export; Card stats and Link ratings for listed Extra Deck monsters from the export
• Observed: No observed combo boards, win rates or tournament results in this export
• Inferred: Starter access and brick estimates from hypergeometric probabilities; Combo ceiling and floor read from card text only; Going-second hand-trap coverage (≈0.79) from hypergeometric estimate; Strategy classification as Combo with Toolbox and Stun secondaries
• Provisional: Meta Power is null: no dated metagame sample; D13 matchup and format fit: no tournament link or dated meta
• Data gaps: No combos supplied; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick and OTK rates) No Side Deck registered, so post-side plan cannot be evaluated Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample
