Centur-Ion Deck #709873 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 69/100 (±5 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Blind-Second / OTK
• Secondary strategies: Control
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro/Link win via high‑ATK Centur‑Ion monsters; Hand‑trap disruption and board control
• Turn 1 (going first): Set Centur‑Ion monsters as Continuous Traps with Emblema Oath, search and draw to assemble engine pieces before opponent's turn.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Ash Blossom, Effect Veiler, etc.) to protect, then Synchro on opponent's turn using the trap‑monsters as material.
• Recovery: Draw power from Maxx "C", Droll & Lock Bird, Ghost Belle & Haunted Mansion and searchers to retrieve lost engine pieces.
• After siding: No side deck; rely on extra‑deck flexibility and hand resources to adapt after side‑step.

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens with a core Centur‑Ion starter (≈97 % chance) and can quickly set monsters as Continuous Traps, enabling powerful Synchro plays on the opponent's turn. Hand‑traps and draw engines give it strong resilience and resource recovery, while the extra‑deck offers several high‑ATK finishers. However, the lack of a side deck and the reliance on specific starter cards lower its adaptability and increase complexity, keeping the overall contextual power in the high‑60s.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Blind-Second / OTK. Structural ≈ 70.3, Going First ≈ 65, Going Second ≈ 78, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 65. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.98 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.02 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Very high engine accessibility (≈97 % starter odds)
• Strong hand‑trap suite for protection
• Multiple high‑ATK synchro finishers
• Good draw and search engine

Weaknesses

• No side deck limits adaptability
• Reliance on specific starters (Emblema Oath, Primera) creates choke points
• Many off‑archetype cards dilute purity
• Complex blind‑second timing raises pilot error risk

Critical choke points

• Missing Emblema Oath or Primera in opening hand stalls engine
• Limited extra‑deck slots for core synchros

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: legality status Legal; card copy limits and banlist status; resolved card text excerpts
• Observed: hand_trap group probability 0.8453 (going second); copy histogram and type spread
• Inferred: engine accessibility from archetype_core_group probability; brick estimate from archetype_core_group proxy; engine ceiling based on high‑ATK synchros; median output lacking combo data; interruption resilience from starter diversity and hand‑trap count; resource economy from draw/search cards; interaction quality from negation_text count; going‑second power from blind‑second design; offensive closing power from synchro ATK values; main deck efficiency from purity percentage; extra deck efficiency from synchro variety; pilotability from complex timing
• Provisional: matchup coverage and meta fit
• 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, game-level, brick/starter/OTK rates) — those signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
