Primite Deck #713067 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±5 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Control
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 60 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Trap‑based board control with Paleozoic special summons and Primite protection; Board breaking via hand traps (Evenly Matched) and mass flip effects (Destructive Daruma)
• Turn 1 (going first): Set multiple Paleozoic traps, activate Primite Howl to protect and summon a Normal monster, then lock the opponent with trap chains.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps like Evenly Matched, flip the board with Destructive Daruma, and summon Paleozoic monsters from the GY to regain field presence.
• Recovery: Recursion through Paleozoic traps in the GY, Reasoning excavations, and Primite Lordly Lode searches to rebuild resources.
• After siding: No side deck; relies on in‑deck flexibility and graveyard recursion.

Why it scores here

The deck opens by trying to set a suite of Paleozoic traps and use Primite Howl for protection, but the probability of drawing a functional starter is low, leading to frequent brick hands. When it does start, it can generate modest board presence through trap‑based special summons and occasional combo lines, yet the median output remains limited. Interaction density is decent thanks to many removal and negation traps, but the lack of a side deck and heavy reliance on specific trap draws reduce resilience and consistency, resulting in a low overall structural score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Control. Structural ≈ 36, Going First ≈ 30, Going Second ≈ 35, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 30. Modifiers: High brick probability (-5); No side deck (-3); Low archetype purity (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.36 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.64 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Strong trap‑based interaction and removal suite
• Recursion via Paleozoic monsters from the GY

Weaknesses

• Very high opening‑hand brick rate
• Low archetype purity and many filler cards
• No side deck for matchup adaptation

Critical choke points

• Drawing at least one core Paleozoic/Primite trap
• Access to Primite Howl for early monster presence

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: legality status; card text excerpts; probability table; copy counts
• Observed: role_tag_counts for removal/searcher/hand_trap
• Inferred: engine accessibility from core group probability; brick estimate from p_none; combo potential from card text; resource economy from card effects; interaction quality from role tags; going‑second breaking from hand traps; offensive power from monster ATK values; main deck efficiency from archetype purity; extra deck coverage from extra deck list; pilotability from complexity of trap chains
• Provisional: matchup coverage due to missing tournament data
• 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
