Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Rescue-ACE Link-4 Arbitrator and 3000-ATK boss monsters (Rescue-ACE Turbulence, Akasuna the Battle Ashtra) closed out by attacks; Ashtra Synchro monsters (Ashtraja Susanoo, Ashtraya Mikumari-no-Mikoto) and Ashtra recursion from the GY and banish zone
  • Turn 1 (going first): Search with ALERT!, Air Lifter or Quick Attacker; Normal Summon Rescue-ACE Impulse or Air Lifter; use Hydrant protection and CONTAIN!/EXTINGUISH! to clear the first blocker, then build toward a Link-4 Arbitrator
  • Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Forbidden Droplet, Maxx C and Dominus Impulse to stop the opponent's first summon or search, then rebuild the Rescue-ACE field with RESCUE! and EMERGENCY!
  • Recovery: Recover from the GY and banish zone with RESCUE!, ALERT!, Rescue-ACE Preventer and Ashtra GY-to-hand effects, with Fire Attacker drawing 2 to refill
  • After siding: Not available: the list runs no Side Deck (Side Deck size 0), so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens with a Rescue-ACE starter: the 18-copy Rescue-ACE core has about a 95% chance of at least one card in the opening hand, and 11 searchers give roughly an 80% chance of at least one searcher, so the engine is live on turns 1-2 more often than not. Its interaction is the strongest part of the system: 6 hand traps, 13 negation-text cards and 10 removal-text cards let it stop an opposing first summon or search, and the hand traps alone give about a 63% chance of at least one going second. It converts into 3000-ATK bosses, with Turbulence, Akasuna and Arbitrator in the list, and it recovers through RESCUE!, ALERT! and Ashtra GY effects. The score is held down by the dilution of the core: only 36.8% of the main deck is exact Rescue-ACE, with Ashtra, Dominus, Mulcharmy and Forbidden cards filling the rest, and there is no Side Deck to fix matchups. The score comes from consistency, median output and interaction at system level; the popularity of the archetype and the individual card scores were not averaged in.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 68 P(at least one Rescue-ACE Impulse in a 5-card opening hand) is about 0.32 for 3 copies; the 18-copy core has about 0.95 chance of one in hand, and the 11 searchers about 0.80 (Inferred)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 55 6 hand traps, 6 Ashtra and Dominus cards and 3 Mulcharmy cards that need specific board states raise the risk of dead or conflicting cards; with 36.8% exact-name purity and no Side Deck, brick risk is moderate (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 65 Ceiling read from card text only: Link-4 Arbitrator, Turbulence and Ashtra Synchro lines can produce several 3000-ATK boards per starter, but no recorded boards exist (Inferred)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 50 No recorded boards, so the median output is unmeasured; it is estimated near average from starter access and the number of non-engine cards (Inferred)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 65 Ash Blossom, Impermanence, Droplet, Dominus Impulse and EMERGENCY! give several routes to continue after a disruption, and Hydrant and multiple searchers give redundancy (Inferred)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 65 ALERT!, RESCUE!, Air Lifter, Fire Attacker, Hydrant and Ashtra GY-to-hand effects give good recovery; the engine spends many cards to set up (Inferred)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 72 13 negation-text, 10 removal-text and 6 hand-trap cards, with layered Trap and Quick-Play interaction; the copy counts of 2-3 for the best cards limit depth (Inferred from text; hand-trap flags Verified)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 65 Going-second hand-trap chance about 0.63 (Verified probability, Inferred use); Dominus Impulse, Crossout Designator and 3000-ATK boss monsters challenge established boards (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 75 Several 3000-ATK or higher bosses (Turbulence 3000, Akasuna 3000, Arbitrator 3000, Ashtraja Susanoo 3300), with Rescue-ACE HQ adding ATK (Verified stats; Inferred use)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 58 42 main cards with 28 distinct names and about 36% off-archetype; the list is reasonably tight but many slots are tech or splash (Verified composition; Inferred)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 60 15 Extra Deck cards are all used, mostly Link and FIRE-based Synchro with good coverage; 12 Link and 3 Synchro mean some Extra cards are generic (Verified composition; Inferred)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 10 No Side Deck at all (Side Deck size 0), so there is no post-side adaptability (Verified)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 50 No dated meta sample or tournament link; archetype share and matchup record are absent (Provisional)
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 45 Many activation timings (hand traps, Quick-Plays, GY and banish effects) and multi-step Rescue-ACE sequencing make the deck demanding to pilot (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: 100% Midrange profile; Combo noted as secondary with no separate weighting applied. Structural ≈ 60.5, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 52. Modifiers: No Side Deck (-2); Banlist exposure (-1); Archetype dilution (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional, no dated metagame sample)

Probability & combo summary

  • Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.32 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ — (all Inferred)
  • Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
  • Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

  • Dense interaction: 6 hand traps, 13 negation-text and 10 removal-text cards
  • Many searchers and recovery routes (ALERT!, RESCUE!, Fire Attacker, Hydrant)
  • Strong 3000-ATK boss monsters and Link-4 Arbitrator
  • Legal list with all restricted cards within legal copy limits

Weaknesses

  • No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptability
  • Low exact-archetype purity (36.8%) and several splash or tech sub-archetypes
  • No recorded combos, so the combo floor and median are unmeasured
  • Hand-trap and Ashtra cards can be dead in some hands (brick risk)

Critical choke points

  • Rescue-ACE Hydrant and the Rescue-ACE monster requirement for many cards (ALERT!, CONTAIN!, EXTINGUISH!, RESCUE!)
  • Rescue-ACE Impulse and Air Lifter as the only 3-copy starters (about 0.32 in a going-first hand)
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 none A Side Deck (up to 15 cards) with Rescue-ACE or extra hand-trap / negation answers The deck runs zero side cards, so it has no post-side plan for best-of-3 or for a known opposing archetype
2 One Mulcharmy Purulia or Mulcharmy Fuwalos A Rescue-ACE monster or a Rescue-ACE searcher Mulcharmy cards need an empty field and are off-archetype; a Rescue-ACE card would increase core density and purity

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Legal status with 42 Main and 15 Extra cards, within the OCG size rules; Copy histogram 1:18, 2:6, 3:4 and all restricted cards within legal copies; Card text and card stats from the export; Usage stats: 61.9% of archetype core cards present; No Side Deck (Side Deck size 0)
  • Inferred: Hypergeometric starter and hand-trap probabilities (about 0.32 for Impulse, 0.95 core, 0.80 searcher, 0.63 hand trap going second); Consistency, interaction and recovery scores from card text; Going-first and going-second power estimates
  • Provisional: Meta power (no dated metagame sample); Tournament reliability and matchup fit (no tournament link or win-rate data)
  • Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent No win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick and starter rates) Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample No Side Deck (Side Deck size 0), so post-side performance cannot be assessed
