Deck — Deck Power Evaluation
Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)
| Overall score | Value |
|---|---|
| Structural Deck Power | 56 |
| Going First | 55 |
| Going Second | 57 |
| Meta Power | provisional |
| Tournament Reliability | 45 |

Legality
Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 4 violation(s).
Identity & game plan
- Win condition: Synchro Summon large EARTH Synchro monsters (X-Saber Hyunlei, Gottoms, Urbellum, Commander Souza) off X-Saber starters and recursion from the Graveyard; Recursion-driven board pressure through Ragigura, Garsem, Darksoul and Gottoms' Second Call
- Turn 1 (going first): Open an X-Saber starter (Pellina, Bruno, Ghost Belle or Ragigura), search an X-Saber via Darksoul/Ragigura/Garsem or Fire Formation - Tenki, then Synchro into a boss
- Turn 2 (going second): Use Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle or Fulhelmknight to interrupt the opponent, then rebuild the Synchro engine from the Graveyard
- Recovery: Recover X-Saber monsters from the Graveyard through Ragigura, Palomuro, Gottoms' Second Call and Gottoms' Emergency Call
- After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan
Why it scores here
The deck is Illegal in OCG: it runs three Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring against a limit of two, and it runs Called by the Grave, Naturia Beast and XX-Saber Gottoms, which are Forbidden, so the score is capped and this is a theoretical, structural-only read. Structurally the system opens reasonably: 13 searcher-text cards give about an 88% chance of at least one searcher in a 5-card opening hand, and the three-copy starters give about 34% per hand, which is Inferred from the hypergeometric table. Conversion is strong on paper because the X-Saber Synchro monsters reach 2,200 to 3,100 ATK and the Graveyard recursion (Ragigura, Palomuro, Gottoms' Second Call) lets the engine repeat after a loss. Interaction is dense: six hand traps and nine negation-text cards give roughly a 65% chance of at least one hand trap when going second, though the legal limits on Ash Blossom and the banned Called by the Grave lower that in practice. Popularity did not earn points, and the usage stats show the archetype's two core cards (M-X-Saber Invoker and Droll & Lock Bird) are absent. No card scores were averaged; the score comes from the system's consistency, recursion and interaction, minus the legality cap.
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | Engine Accessibility & Consistency | 58 | P(>=1 searcher in opening 5) ≈ 0.88; 3-copy starters ≈ 0.34 per hand (Inferred) |
| D2 | Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management | 55 | Seven 3-of slots and six hand traps create some dead-hand risk, with no brick estimate from text beyond the composition (Inferred) |
| D3 | Combo Conversion & Ceiling | 62 | 15 Synchro Extra Deck options and 2,200-3,100 ATK bosses, but no recorded boards to measure a ceiling (Inferred from structure) |
| D4 | Combo Floor & Median Output | 45 | No combos supplied, so median output is unmeasured and reflects starter diversity only (Inferred) |
| D5 | Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy | 60 | Recursion through Ragigura, Palomuro and Gottoms' Second Call gives independent rebuild routes after an interruption (Inferred from text) |
| D6 | Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind | 62 | 13 searcher-text cards and Graveyard-to-field recursion (Inferred from text) |
| D7 | End-Board & Interaction Quality | 66 | Six hand traps, nine negation-text cards and 17 removal-text cards; the Forbidden and Limited pieces are not counted as legal (Inferred from text and flags) |
| D8 | Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power | 58 | Hand traps have about 65% chance of appearing in a going-second opening hand; no going-second split data (Inferred) |
| D9 | Offensive Pressure & Closing Power | 65 | Boss ATK up to 3,100 (XX-Saber Gottoms, Forbidden) and 3,000 Archfiend and Swordsoul bosses; no end-board sample (Verified stats, Inferred closing) |
| D10 | Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility | 50 | 40-card Main with 21 distinct cards and seven 3-of slots; compact but heavy on copies (Verified composition) |
| D11 | Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage | 45 | 15 Synchro slots, with 3 used by Forbidden or unused-in-practice cards and no Extra Deck usage data (Verified composition) |
| D12 | Side Deck Adaptability | 15 | No Side Deck at all, so there is no post-side adaptability (Verified) |
| D13 | Matchup Coverage & Format Fit | 50 | No tournament or meta data; the core usage cards are absent (Provisional) |
| D14 | Pilotability & Error Tolerance | 40 | Multi-step Synchro sequencing and Graveyard recursion choices raise pilot demand (Inferred) |
How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 56, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 57, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: illegal-deck-cap (-25); no-side-deck (0). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability = 54.8 uncapped; Illegal cap applied to 30 (theoretical/structural-only); Meta provisional
Probability & combo summary
- Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.34 · 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
- Dense searcher text (13 cards) gives high odds of finding a starter (Inferred)
- Graveyard recursion and multiple X-Saber Synchro bosses give rebuild routes (Inferred)
- Six hand traps and nine negation effects provide interaction on the going-second turn (Inferred)
Weaknesses
- Illegal list: three Ash Blossom over limit, and three Forbidden cards present (Verified)
- No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptation (Verified)
- Low exact-archetype purity (36.4%) and missing core cards from the usage stats (Verified)
- No recorded combos or guides, so the ceiling and floor are unmeasured (Verified gap)
Critical choke points
- Starter access through three-copy X-Saber starters (about 34% per opening hand, Inferred)
- Synchro summon route depends on a live Tuner and non-Tuner EARTH pair (Inferred)
Recommended changes
| Priority | Remove | Add | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Called by the Grave; XX-Saber Gottoms (Forbidden Extra Deck copy); Naturia Beast (both copies) | Legal X-Saber Extra Deck or Main replacements | Deck is Illegal and cannot receive a normal score until these are removed |
| 2 | One Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring | A legal utility or Side Deck staple | Brings Ash Blossom to the 2-copy OCG limit |
| 3 | None | A Side Deck (up to 15) | The deck currently has no post-side plan (D12) |
Evidence & confidence
- Verified: Legality violations: Ash Blossom 3 copies (limit 2), Called by the Grave, Naturia Beast and XX-Saber Gottoms Forbidden; Composition: 40 Main, 15 Extra, 0 Side; copy histogram 3x7 / 2x5 / 1x9; Usage: M-X-Saber Invoker and Droll & Lock Bird are the core cards and are absent
- Inferred: Hypergeometric starter and hand-trap odds; Engine conversion and recursion read from card text; Interaction density from negation and removal text flags
- Provisional: Meta and matchup fit (no dated metagame sample, no tournament link)
- Data gaps: No combos supplied: floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: meta-share and per-pilot match record absent No win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchup or brick rates Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample No Side Deck: post-side plan cannot be evaluated
