Endymion Deck #736465 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 60/100 (±5 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Control
• Secondary strategies: none
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Control and board dominance via Spell Counters and high‑ATK finishers; Pendulum engine resource generation
• Turn 1 (going first): Use Spell Power Mastery and Servant of Endymion to place Spell Counters, destroy opponent cards, and set up a resilient board.
• Turn 2 (going second): Leverage draw/search spells, hand traps (Droll & Lock Bird, Called by the Grave) and fast board‑breakers like Instant Fusion to respond and seize control.
• Recovery: Recursion through Spell counters, Mythical Institution, and Magicians' Souls to draw cards and rebuild resources after disruption.
• After siding: No side deck; rely on in‑game adaptation and flexible engine lines.

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens its engine thanks to a 98% chance of drawing at least one core starter, allowing early Spell‑counter placement and board control. It converts that into pressure with draw/search spells and removal, while hand traps and multiple recursion paths keep it resilient to disruption. However, the lack of a side deck and modest combo depth limit its closing power and adaptability, keeping the overall performance solid but not elite.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Control. Structural ≈ 61, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 60, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 55. Modifiers: Side deck absence (-2); Low archetype purity (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.99 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.01 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Very high engine start consistency
• Strong control tools and removal
• Robust resource generation via Spell counters and draw spells

Weaknesses

• Low archetype purity and many off‑archetype cards
• No side deck limits post‑side adaptability
• Limited combo depth and closing power

Critical choke points

• Reliance on early Spell‑counter placement
• Need to obtain key Pendulum monsters (Servant of Endymion, Endymion the Mighty Master of Magic) early

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality status Legal; All copy limits respected
• Inferred: P(≥1 core starter in opening hand) ≈ 0.987; Archetype purity 20% implies moderate brick risk; No recorded combo boards, ceiling modest; Typical turn output low median; Hand traps and recursion provide resilience; Draw/search spells generate resources; Negation and removal give interaction depth; Six‑card hand and board‑breakers give second‑player pressure; High‑ATK finishers exist but need setup; Large card pool reduces efficiency; Extra deck contains situational monsters; No side deck limits adaptability; Lack of tournament data makes matchup fit provisional; Complex Pendulum mechanics lower pilotability
• Provisional: Matchup coverage is provisional due to missing tournament data
• Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link — archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN (going-first/second, matchup, game-level, brick/starter/OTK rates) — those signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
