Topologic Deck #696592 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 22/100 (±6 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Stun
• Format: ocg

Legality

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

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Ritual Beast Ulti-series Fusion/Link boards built from Spiritual Beast and Ritual Beast Tamer bodies, with Gaiapelio, Nochiudrago and Apelio as the main Extra Deck bosses; Topologic Blaster Dragon is absent from the list; secondary pressure comes only from Ritual Beast Ulti-Kimunfalcos link-chain and PSY-Framelord Lambda
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Spiritual Beast Tamer Lara / Cannahawk / Rampengu as starters, use Emergency Teleport or Ritual Beast Tamer Elder to extend, and fuse into Ulti-Apelio or Ulti-Nochiudrago; the Forbidden cards cannot be legally played so this plan is structural only
• Turn 2 (going second): Six-card hand with Ash Blossom and Artifact Lancea as interaction, then fuse toward a Ritual Beast Ulti board; hand-trap density is decent but the deck has no legal Forbidden protection
• Recovery: Ritual Beast Ulti-Kimunfalcos can banish a Ritual Beast from the GY to Normal Summon from hand, and Lara/Cannahawk recursion from the Deck gives some grind
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan; a rebuild is required before competitive use

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens its Ritual Beast starters at a moderate rate: the core Lara, Cannahawk and Rampengu each reach 25% at least one copy in a 5-card opener, and the archetype core group has about 91% chance of at least one piece in hand, so the engine is accessible on paper. Conversion is limited, though, because the Extra Deck bosses of the Ulti-series are mostly absent or only partially supported in the list, and no recorded combo boards exist to confirm a real median output. Resilience is weak: the deck ends turns into a single set of Ash Blossom and Artifact Lancea style interaction with no independent second line, and the 5 Forbidden cards cannot be legally played so any apparent power from them is excluded. Score is pulled down by the illegal Forbidden copies, the 55-card main deck with 36 distinct cards and heavy off-archetype spread, and an empty Side Deck; popularity and archetype usage did not earn points, and card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary, Toolbox secondary (approx 80/20 for the Structural computation). Structural ≈ 35, Going First ≈ 33, Going Second ≈ 30, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 25. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-8); empty_side_deck (-4); off_archetype_spread (-3). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional); Illegal-deck cap applied so the final is structural-only and capped low

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

• Ritual Beast starter density (Lara, Cannahawk, Rampengu, Elder at 3 copies each) gives a real opening engine
• Hand-trap and negation suite (Ash Blossom, Artifact Lancea, Red Reboot, Droll & Lock Bird, Dimensional Barrier) provides some interaction
• Strong Extra Deck bosses (Ulti-Gaiapelio 3200 ATK, Ulti-Apelio 2600, Nochiudrago 2400) with access to multiple summon routes

Weaknesses

• Five Forbidden cards make the list illegal in OCG; this alone blocks a normal Final score
• No combo data, so conversion and median output are unmeasured
• Empty Side Deck means no post-side plan
• Ten Limited cards and a 55-card main with 36 distinct cards spread across several sub-archetypes reduce consistency

Critical choke points

• Ritual Beast Tamer / Spiritual Beast starter in hand (25% per 3-copy card)
• Single Ash Blossom and Artifact Lancea interaction with no second independent line
• Any Limited card drawn only once due to its copy limit

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: 5 Forbidden cards run at 0 legal copies (legality.restricted_cards); Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 sizes and 36 distinct main cards (composition); Card text for Ulti-Gaiapelio, Ulti-Apelio, Nochiudrago, Ash Blossom, Artifact Lancea (cards[].description_excerpt); Exact-name Topologic purity 1.4% and Ritual Beast spread of 23 copies (composition.archetype_purity)
• Observed: Core-card usage stats: Lara, Cannahawk, Rampengu, Emergency Teleport at 100% inclusion (usage_statistics)
• Inferred: Starter P(>=1 in 5-card hand) ≈ 0.25 per 3-copy card and archetype-core ≈ 0.91 (probabilities); Consistency and brick rate estimates from off-archetype spread and singletons; Going-first and going-second plans, interaction density and resilience scores
• Provisional: Meta Power and matchup fit: no tournament link or dated metagame sample, so D13 is provisional and weighted 0
• 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 — going-first/second, matchup, brick and OTK rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Side Deck is empty (0 cards); post-side plan cannot be assessed Deck title is null; archetype is 'Topologic' but the list contains only one exact-name Topologic card
