Kewl Tune Deck #747095 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 40/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Blind-Second
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro Summon Kewl Tune Synchro-family boss monsters (Kewl Tune RS, Kewl Tune Remix, Kewl Tune Track Maker, Visas Amritara, Baronne de Fleur) off Tuner-heavy boards, then pressure with Tuner-based negation and removal; Interaction-led control through hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Effect Veiler, Infinite Impermanence, Maxx C) that lock out the opponent's Tuner and effect plays
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon a Kewl Tune Tuner, use Kewl Tune Mix / Reco / Cue search effects into a Synchro Summon, and rely on the archetype core to keep a second Tuner live
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold hand traps to negate the opponent's starter and then convert the six-card hand into a Synchro Summon on the next turn
• Recovery: Kewl Tune Synchro and Duelist Genesis search Synchro Spell/Traps and Kewl Tune monsters from the Deck, and Kewl Tune Reco and Mix recur Tuners from the Graveyard
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan; the deck is evaluated as a single structural list

Why it scores here

This list scores as a structural system, not as an average of its cards. Its engine is accessible: the Kewl Tune core is present in 28 copies and P(at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand) is about 0.999 (Inferred), and the Tuner density gives multiple starting routes. The interaction suite (13 hand traps, 12 negation-text cards) is broad and lets it play through disruption and win on the second turn. The score is held down by the combo evidence: the best recorded line reaches only PowerIndex 11, the median is 9, and no board or boss data exists, so the ceiling and floor both read low. The deck is also Illegal in its format (Synchro Overtake is Forbidden and Kewl Tune Cue is run at 2 copies against a limit of 1), which caps it to a theoretical, structural-only score. Popularity in the archetype did not earn points, and no points were given for meta share.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 48.5, Going First ≈ 45, Going Second ≈ 55, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8). Final formula: Illegal deck: theoretical/structural-only. Final = 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional) = 0.80*48.5 + 0.20*45 - 8 ≈ 40

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 1 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ — (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex 11, median 9, board-per-starter 0
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Accessible Kewl Tune engine with 28 core copies and very high chance of a core card in the opening hand
• Broad hand-trap and negation suite (13 hand traps) that gives strong going-second interaction
• Compact main with a full 15-card Synchro Extra Deck

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: Synchro Overtake is Forbidden and Kewl Tune Cue is over its copy limit
• Recorded combo ceiling is low (best PowerIndex 11, median 9)
• No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptation
• Low exact-name archetype purity (38%) with many off-archetype cards

Critical choke points

• Forbidden Synchro Overtake must be removed before the list is legal
• Tuner-material requirements mean a hand without a second Tuner can stall the Synchro line

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Synchro Overtake Forbidden; Kewl Tune Cue over limit (Limited to 1, run at 2); Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0; Synchro Extra Deck only; Core archetype presence: 28 copies; No tournament link and no side deck
• Observed: Best recorded combo PowerIndex 11, median 9, from 3 scored combos; Average end-hand 1 card, no GY or banish resource recorded
• Inferred: Starter probability ≈ 0.999 for the core group; Hand-trap coverage 92% in a 6-card hand (going second); Brick and Tuner-material risk estimated from composition
• Provisional: Meta Power is null and D13 is provisional: no dated metagame sample exists
• Data gaps: no tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry: going-first/second, matchup and brick/starter rates are Inferred combo sample is thin (3 scored lines, no going-first or going-second split, no board data) no Side Deck registered, so post-side adaptability cannot be measured Meta Power is provisional until a dated metagame sample is supplied
