Hecahands Deck #729068 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 28/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Control
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 52 / Extra 18 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion Summon Hecahands boss monsters and generate board control via negation/removal effects; Grind through opponent resources via Hecahands draw effects triggered by hand-adds
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Hecahands Fusion starter (Gazelle, Mirror Swordknight, or Ibtel) into a multi-layer Fusion board with trap negation (Yad'al-Hecahands, Ib'al-Hecahands)
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Nibiru, Ghost Ogre, Skull Meister) to disrupt opponent board, then Fusion Summon into removal and stealing effects (Dandalos, Jauzah)
• Recovery: Recursion via Master Tao the Chanter and Nightmare Hands; floating searches from Hecahands Yadel and Nightmare Apprentice
• After siding: Unknown; no side deck supplied

Why it scores here

This Hecahands deck is Illegal in OCG, running 5 copies of Hecahands Jauzah (legal limit 3) and 18 Extra Deck cards (OCG max 15). Structurally, the deck demonstrates moderate combo potential through Fusion summoning but suffers from an oversized main deck (52 cards), inconsistent core engine access (63.6% of meta-standard core present, missing Called by the Grave and others), and no combo data to verify actual floor/ceiling. The opening hand quality is compromised by a 14-mono-1-copy structure creating draw inconsistency. Hand-trap and removal density provide some going-second resilience, but without a side deck and given the legality violations, a normal Final score cannot apply. The evaluation treats this as theoretical/structural only, capped low due to illegality and unverifiability.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: 0.70 Combo + 0.30 Control. Structural ≈ 44, Going First ≈ 48, Going Second ≈ 46, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 38. Modifiers: Legality violation penalty (-12); No side deck (-4); No combo data (-3); Oversized main deck (-2). Final formula: Illegal deck capped; structural (0.70*Combo + 0.30*Control) = 44; no meta sample; Final = 0.50*Structural + 0.50*TournamentReliability - 12 (legality penalty) ≈ 28

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.63 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.37 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Hecahands trap negation (Yad'al, Ib'al) provides spell/trap + monster negation on board
• Searchable Fusion engine with multiple summon routes (reveal, quick-play, banish)
• 12 searcher-text cards and draw triggers (Breus, Godos, Gaigas on opponent hand-add) enable resource generation
• Moderate hand-trap density (6 cards) supports going-second interactive play
• Hecahands Dandalos enables control/stealing of opponent monsters

Weaknesses

• Deck is OCG Illegal: Extra Deck oversized (18/15), Jauzah overcopy (5/3)
• 52-card main deck bloats draw variance; 14 one-ofs create inconsistency
• Missing 4 of 11 meta-core cards (Called by, Xeno, Hidden Hecahands, Mulcharmy)
• No side deck supplied; best-of-3 format unplayable; D12 = 0
• No combo data; actual floor/median/ceiling unverified; relying on text inference
• Hecahands bosses (Jauzah, Xeno, Dandalos) require 2-3 materials; tight Extra Deck access
• Low offensive pressure (no direct damage, no piercing synergy); reliant on stealing opponent monsters

Critical choke points

• Legality violations make the deck unplayable in official OCG events
• Oversized Extra Deck and Jauzah overcopy are hard blockers
• No side deck strategy; cannot adapt post-Game 1
• Lack of combo data means turn-1 and turn-2 board pressure is unquantified
• Heavy reliance on opponent actions triggering draw effects (Breus/Godos/Gaigas) makes passive T1 board weak if opponent plays slow

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Deck is Illegal in OCG (Hecahands Jauzah 5 copies > 3; Extra Deck 18 > 15); Main Deck size 52 (OCG allows 40–60; within bounds but unusual); Card text and role hints: Yad'al, Ib'al provide trap/monster negation; Dandalos enables control; Breus/Godos/Gaigas draw on hand-add; Usage statistics: 7/11 meta-core cards present; 64% core inclusion vs ~70% meta-standard; No side deck supplied (0/15 cards)
• Observed: Searcher density: 12 cards with searcher-text role hints; Hand-trap density: 6 cards tagged (Nibiru, Ghost Ogre, Skull Meister x2, Ghost Mourner x2); Removal text: 26 cards with removal-text hints across main/extra; Negation text: 12 cards with negation-text hints
• Inferred: Archetype core accessibility: P(≥1 in opening-5) ≈ 0.63 from hypergeometric draw on 9 core copies / 52-card main; Full brick estimate: P(no core in hand-5) ≈ 0.37; Combo ceiling: ~55 estimated from Fusion boss stats (Xeno 3400, Chimera 3100, Jauzah 2400) and multi-negate trap presence, absent actual board logs; Combo floor: ~45 estimated from available extenders and recursion without verified shortest line; Going-first power: ~48 from negate-board presence, low offensive pressure, modest hand-trap susceptibility; Going-second power: ~46 from hand-trap + removal stack but lack of OTK or piercing synergy; Pilotability complexity: Moderate (~42) from multiple Fusion summon routes and Hecahands trigger conditions; oversized main creates decision burden
• Provisional: Meta Power: Null (no dated metagame sample supplied); Matchup coverage: Hecahands 70% archetype meta-share in sample (context only, not power); Post-side adaptability: Cannot assess; 0 side cards
• Data gaps: Legality violations: Extra Deck oversized, Jauzah overcopy — deck cannot legally compete until fixed Zero combo data: no parsed boards, no best/median/floor combos, no examples — D3/D4 unverified No tournament link: archetype meta-share is context; per-pilot match record and win rates absent No side deck: post-side plan and best-of-3 reliability unassessable No win-rate telemetry: going-first/second game outcomes, matchup specifics, brick/starter/OTK rates not available in YGOVN No guides: 0 strategy articles on Hecahands for this deck build
