Bystial/Byssted Deck #730893 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 62/100 (±6 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Control, Blind-Second
• Format: tcg

Legality

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

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro combo board with negation/removal effects; Grind game via hand-trap interaction and resource advantage
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon a Kewl Tune starter, build a Synchro board with 2-3 negations or removal effects, protect Tuners, maintain follow-up
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps to disrupt opponent's combo, leverage Mulcharmy for card draw advantage, board-break with removal and attack directly
• Recovery: Recursion via Kewl Tune Tuner Synchros and Extra Deck Tuners that can Special Summon from GY; Bystial dragons banish from GY as backup resource
• After siding: No side deck supplied; assumed post-side plan mirrors core engine with tech adjustments

Why it scores here

This deck centers on Kewl Tune Synchro combos with Bystial/Mulcharmy support, opening with a ~65% chance of a live Synchro engine in hand and building boards featuring 2-3 negations or removal effects. The median combo output is solid but not exceptional due to heavy hand-trap density and some dead-card overlap; the ceiling is higher when starters align. Resilience is moderate—only 3 independent starter lines visible, and disruption early forecloses recovery. The lack of a side deck, missing one core card (Golden Cloud Beast - Malong), and thin combo telemetry lower confidence. Going-second leverage via Mulcharmy draw and hand traps is real but not transformative. The score reflects a functional, interactive mid-tier deck that rewards tight play but lacks margin for variance.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 63, Going First ≈ 67, Going Second ≈ 61, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 59. Modifiers: Missing core card (-2); No side deck (-2); No combo telemetry (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.65 · key two-card combo ≈ 0.45 · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.12 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex 72, median 58, board-per-starter 2.3
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Kewl Tune engine is highly compact and consistent with multiple starter redundancy (Cue, Mix, Reco, Rotary)
• Extra-Deck Tuner Synchros (RS, Track Maker, Crackle, Loudness War, B2B, Remix) enable loops and recovery
• Hand-trap density (11 copies across Ash, Ghost Ogre, Effect Veiler, Ghost Belle) supports going-second and interaction
• Bystial integration (banish-recycle, Dis Pater negation) adds grind resilience and mid-turn removal
• Mulcharmy Fuwalos/Purulia draw engines reward opponent's summons, building card advantage in longer games

Weaknesses

• No side deck supplied; adaptability and post-side reliability unknown
• Missing one core card (Golden Cloud Beast - Malong, 53.6% inclusion); signals either experimental build or variance
• Tuner saturation (27/55 main) creates redundancy risk and hand-clogging in early turns
• Median combo output (~58) is solid but not exceptional; ceiling contingent on starter alignment and searcher draw
• Limited independent interrupt routes after first Synchro negation; recovery heavily dependent on Extra-Deck recursion
• Offensive closing is weak; highest ATK boards (Dis Pater 3500, B2B 3200) require clean attacks or milling

Critical choke points

• Opening hand without a Kewl Tune starter (est. ~35% of hands) requires Bystial backups or hand-trap pivots; narrower lines
• Disruption on first Synchro Summon prevents board setup; recursion via Remix/Track Maker requires GY setup first
• Graveyard and banish zones are contested resources (Bystial banish-recycle vs Kewl Tune GY recursion); excessive disruption to both narrows recovery
• No floodgate or soft-lock effects in the main deck; relies on negations only; control decks can out-resource

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Deck is Legal (55 main, 15 extra, 0 side; all copy limits respected); 6 Limited/Unlimited cards present and within limits; 14 Synchro Tuners + 1 Fusion; Extra-Deck fully populated; 11 hand-trap cards confirmed by card text; Usage stats show 85.7% core present (6/7 core cards)
• Observed: Card text roles (Kewl Tune Synchro, searcher; Mulcharmy draw; Bystial banish-recycle) extracted from description excerpts
• Inferred: P(≥1 Kewl Tune core) ≈ 0.65 (hypergeometric from 10 core copies, 55 main, 5-card hand); Combo ceiling ~72 (Kewl Tune RS/Track Maker into 2-3 negate/removal board); Combo median ~58 (typical 2-card starter into one Synchro board); Interruption resilience ~61 (3 independent lines, GY/banish recursion, but limited redundancy); Going-second power ~61 (6-card hand, 11 hand traps, removal suite, but no specialized board-break); Brick rate ~12% (27 Tuners + 11 hand traps overlap; Bystial backup limited to 4 copies); Structural Deck Power ~63 (Combo weights applied; consistency solid, median output fair, resilience moderate)
• Provisional: Meta Power is null (no tournament link, no dated metagame sample, archetype meta-share unknown); Post-side performance is unknown (no side deck supplied); Matchup win rates are speculative; context only
• Data gaps: No combo data parsed boards; all combo analysis is text-inferred No tournament context (no per-pilot match record, no archetype meta-share from dated sample) No side deck supplied; post-side adaptability unknown; D12 set to 0 No win-rate telemetry in YGOVN; brick rate, going-first/second split, matchup outcomes all Inferred or Unknown Missing core card (Golden Cloud Beast - Malong); signals possible build variance or niche configuration
