Dominus Deck #730871 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 38/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Midrange, Control
• Format: tcg

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Summon Level 10 Sacred Beast bosses (Hamon, Raviel) with interaction and board control via fusion materials and field-spell recursion.; Grind advantage through Mulcharmy draw engines and resource loops; Branded fusion toolbox for removal and flexibility.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open with Martyr or Sacred Beast spell to fetch Field Spell or searcher; establish Level 10 bosses and protection via negation/removal techs (Forbidden Crown, Solemn, hand traps).
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Mulcharmy Quick Effects to enable draws when opponents summon; leverage board breakers (Super Polymerization, Lightning Storm, Harpie's Feather Duster) and disruption (Ash, Droll & Lock Bird) to force gaps before attempting recovery.
• Recovery: Recursion through Raviel/Hamon hand-reveal effects and Sacred Beasts Released banish activation; Fallen Paradise field spell loops for repeated Special Summons.
• After siding: No side deck supplied; unable to assess post-side adaptation or specialized matchup solutions.

Why it scores here

This Dominus-Mulcharmy hybrid struggles with consistency and structural coherence. The deck runs only 4.3% exact-name Dominus cards while leaning on Phantasm (Sacred Beast) engines and Mulcharmy draw starters—a fragmented core that reduces opening reliability. P(≥1 core starter) ≈ 0.78 going-first, but the deck suffers from brick risk due to conflicting Normal Summons (three Level 10 bosses that cannot be normally summoned, paired with multiple starters requiring discard). Combo ceiling is moderate (~52): Level 10 bosses offer 4000 ATK protection and searchable interaction, but median output is much lower (~40) because the deck depends on opponent activation windows and field-spell recursion loops that collapse under disruption. Going-second pressure is weak (~48); board breaking tools exist but lack redundancy. The deck is legal but poorly integrated, with no side deck and heavy reliance on specific draw sequences and activation conditions. Popularity metrics and archetype share do not earn points—the score reflects the system's fragmentation and variance.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 41, Going First ≈ 44, Going Second ≈ 46, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: Missing side deck (-3); Engine fragmentation (-2); High garnet burden (-2); No combo evidence (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional; no dated metagame, no side deck)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.78 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.22 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex 52, median 40, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Level 10 bosses (Hamon, Raviel) offer high ATK/DEF and searchable interaction via hand-reveal effects.
• Mulcharmy draw engines provide card advantage when opponents summon, enabling counter-plays.
• Fusion toolbox (Super Polymerization, Albion line, Thunder Dragon Colossus) offers removal flexibility and tech coverage.
• Hand trap density (Ash, Droll & Lock Bird) supports going-second plans and disruption.
• Extra Deck diversity (7 Links, 5 Fusions, 2 XYZs, 1 Synchro) provides multiple utility routes.

Weaknesses

• Engine incoherence: only 4.3% exact-name Dominus; Mulcharmy and Phantasm cores conflict on Normal Summon slot.
• Three Level 10 bosses create hard garnets; limited discard outlets (2 Mulcharmy) exacerbate brick risk.
• Combo ceiling moderate (~52) and heavily dependent on field-spell recursion; disruption on key searchers collapses lines.
• Median output significantly lower than ceiling (~40); many hands require specific activation windows to function.
• No side deck (0/15); unable to adapt post-side for matchup strategies.
• Offensive pressure weak: Level 10 bosses cannot attack naturally; reliance on grinding and grind advantage.
• Main deck bloat (55 cards) contributes to inconsistency without clear benefit.
• Going-first boards lack resilience; single interruption on field-spell or searcher collapses recursion loops.

Critical choke points

• Field Spell (Fallen Paradise): disruption here breaks entire recursion engine; only two copies, one from search.
• Normal Summon slot: Martyr and two Mulcharmy compete; hand composition determines which engine is live.
• Discard resources: Martyr, Hamon, Raviel, Summoner all require discards; competing demands reduce playable hands.
• Searcher density: top draws matter heavily; no guaranteed T1 board without specific openers.

• Inferred: Engine accessibility (D1): P(≥1 starter) ≈ 0.78 from hypergeometric; core group 14 copies, P ≈ 0.78; starter diversity low due to 9 Level 10 bosses creating conflicts.; Brick rate (D2): ~0.22 estimated from three Level 10 hard garnets, two Mulcharmy discard outlets, conflicting Normal Summon lanes.; Combo ceiling (D3): ~52 from two Level 10 bosses (4000 ATK each) + 2–3 interaction pieces (hand-reveal searchable, Forbidden Crown, Solemn).; Combo floor (D4): ~40 from median scenarios requiring field-spell recursion; collapse risk on searcher disruption.; Interruption resilience (D5): ~38; only ~40% of boards show two independent lines; recursion loop fragility.; Resource economy (D6): ~44; Mulcharmy draw conditional; discard-heavy core (Martyr, Hamon, Raviel, Summoner); net ~neutral to slightly negative.; Interaction quality (D7): ~45; 2–3 negations/removals per board (Hamon searcher, Raviel removal, hand traps, Forbidden Crown); mid-tier density.; Going-second power (D8): ~48; board breakers present (Super Poly, Harpie, Lightning Storm) but limited redundancy; relies on opponent activation.; Closing power (D9): ~35; Level 10 bosses cannot attack naturally; no inherent pierce or direct damage; grind-focused, not aggressive.; Main deck efficiency (D10): ~32; 55 cards creates variance without payoff; 13 three-ofs (23.6% redundancy) but mostly draw/utility.; Extra deck efficiency (D11): ~50; 7 Links, 5 Fusions, 2 XYZs, 1 Synchro; fusion toolbox and Link utility; coverage adequate.; Pilotability (D14): ~38; Martyr → Field → Level 10 sequencing requires care; decision density moderate for grind deck; error tolerance acceptable but not high.
• Provisional: Meta Power: null; no dated metagame sample supplied; archetype meta-share unavailable.; Matchup coverage (D13): ~32; core-card alignment 58.3% suggests deviation from meta-standard builds; tournament context absent; format fit cannot be estimated without metagame.

No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent; format fit unverified. No win-rate telemetry: going-first vs going-second match outcomes, matchup breakdowns, brick/starter/OTK rates unavailable.
