Legality

Main 58 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Accumulate resources and pressure via Maliss Link monsters with layered interaction and removal effects; Fusion-based Azamina strategy or control through hand disruption and floodgates
• Turn 1 (going first): Sumon Maliss Link boses (Hearts Crypter, Red Ransom) pointing to support monsters for negation/removal access and go-second board breaker setup
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps and removal suite; pivot to board breaking via Super Polymerization and interaction cards; attempt OTK via Fusion or atrition
• Recovery: Maliss recursion engines and searchers (March Hare, Chesy Cat, MTP-07); banish synergy with Underground field spell; leverage GY as resource
• After siding: No side deck provided; structural adaptability unknown

Why it scores here

This deck runs a hybrid Midrange-Combo shell centered on Maliss Link monsters and Azamina Fusion payoffs, supported by strong removal and hand-trap package. Core starters (Maliss

trio, Backup @Ignister) open with ~65-73% frequency going first/second, enabling boards with negation and targeted interaction. The deck's median output is moderate—most hands produce a single functional line with2–3 interaction pieces rather than explosive combo ceiling; versatility and grind come from resource economy (searchers, recursion, field spell synergy). Resilience is hampered by reliance on specific Maliss Link boss monsters and limited independent line redundancy; a disrupted first combo often leaves weak recovery. The extra deck is well-utilized (10 Links, 5 Fusion options) but lacks consistency in Azamina payoff access (missing core staples like Azamina Mu Rcielago and S:P Little Knight). No side deck provided prevents post-side adaptability scoring. Popularity and archetype meta-share did not earn points; the score reflects system-level coherence, brick risk, and realistic turn-by-turn performance.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: 0.75 Midrange + 0.25 Combo. Structural ≈ 57, Going First ≈ 62, Going Second ≈ 59, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 54. Modifiers: Missing core staples (-3); No side deck penalty (-2); 58-card main deck bloat (-2). Final formula: 0.80 * Structural (57) + 0.20 * TournamentReliability (54) = 56.4 ≈ 58 (Meta provisional, no side deck)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.73 · key two-card combo ≈ 0.52 · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.18 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Strong hand-trap package (6 copies, 49.7% T2 draw rate) and going-second interaction breadth (Super Polymerization, Lightning Storm, removal traps)
• Maliss Link boss recursion and searcher engines enable mid-game grind and recovery from single disruption
• Flexible extra deck with 10 Link options covering negation, removal, and adaptation scenarios
• Field spell synergy (Maliss in Underground) with banish-based recursion creates resource density
• Removal-heavy main deck (30+ removal/tech cards) suited to interactive TCG meta

Weaknesses

• Weak combo ceiling and median output—most T1 lines produce 1functional Link boss + 2–3 interaction, not explosive boards
• Limited independent combo paths; disruption to primary starters (Backup @Ignister, Maliss Chesy Cat) often stalls the line irreversibly
• 28% core card presence (only 7/25 standard inclusions); missing Azamina Mu Rcielago and S:P Little Knight blocks optimal payoff access
• 58-card main deck bloat dilutes opening-hand quality and increases garnet density relative to 40-card minimum
• Offensive closing power underweight—low-ATK Maliss support monsters and lack of piercing/effect damage limit aggression

Critical choke points

• Backup @Ignister is the primary Extra Deck sumon enabler; hand disruption (Ash, Called by the Grave) on this card often colapses the line
• Maliss in Underground field spell is highly contestable and required for banish synergy; losing it mid-combo reduces recovery
• Azamina Debtors is single copy and conditional on hand setup; Fusion Sumon payoff is fragile compared to Link consistency
• No main-deck search for Azamina Mu Rcielago or S:P Little Knight; these critical staples absent from list

• Inferred: D1 consistency: P(≥1 core starter hand 5) ≈ 0.73 from hypergeometric; 13 core copies at high inclusion thresholds; D2 brick estimate: ~15-18% full brick based on normal-sumon conflicts and spell/trap density; D3–D4 ceiling/median: Text-only inference—Maliss Hearts Crypter 3-Link (2500 ATK, unegateable negate + banish) is realistic ceiling; typical board 2300–2500 ATK boss + 2–3 interaction; D5 resilience: Limited independent line count suggests ~54 resilience post-single-disruption; D6 economy: Allure, Souls, Chesy Cat draw; banish recursion via Underground; net +0to +1 advantage per line; D7 interaction: Negation (Forbidden Crown x3, Dominus Impulse x3) + removal + recursion; no full board floodgate; D8 going-second: Super Polymerization x3, hand-trap suite (49.7% T2 access), Lightning Storm enable ~60 going-second power; D9 closing: Low ATK support monsters (100–1500) and no piercing/effect damage; atrition-based win; D10–D11 efficiency: 58-card bloat (−3 points) vs. well-used extra deck (+2 points); D14 pilotability: 4–6 step combos with multiple activation windows; moderate complexity
• Provisional: Meta Power: null — no dated metagame sample supplied; Sinful Spoils archetype share unknown in current format; Tournament Reliability: estimated 54 based on opening stability and post-disruption recovery, but without tournament context this is speculative
