Odion Deck #750682 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 58/100 (±6 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Control
• Secondary strategies: Combo, Midrange
• Format: master-duel

Legality

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

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra Deck bosses (Synchro/Fusion/Link/Xyz, including 3500-ATK Synchros) that the trap-based engine helps summon, with Anubis the Last Judge (3000 ATK) as a main-deck finisher; Verdict of Anubis damage and continuous negation chains that let a single boss survive and attack
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a searcher or starter (The Man with the Mark, Primite Lordly Lode, Treasures of the Kings, Primite Dragon Ether Beryl, or an Apophis Trap Monster), search a Trap or Temple piece, Set Traps, and hold Solemn/Dominus interaction for the opponent's first summon
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the 6-card hand to hold Solemn Judgment/Strike/Warning and the Dominus hand-activated traps (conditional on the opponent controlling a card) to stop the opponent's first Special Summon, then start the engine from a searcher
• Recovery: Traps in the GY enable Dominus Impulse/Purge, Songs of the Dominators and Verdict of Anubis; searchers (16 search-text cards) rebuild the starter from Deck after an interruption
• After siding: Not applicable: Master Duel has no sideboard in this format and side_count is 0

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a functional starter: 14 starter-capable copies in the 40-card Main (The Man with the Mark, Primite Lordly Lode, Treasures of the Kings, Primite Dragon Ether Beryl, and the Apophis Trap Monsters) give roughly a 0.90 chance of at least one in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred, hypergeometric). Its strongest dimension is interaction: 22 negation-text cards and 19 removal-text cards across Solemn, Dominus and Apophis traps create layered answers to the opponent's first summon, though several cost LP or depend on a Trap in the GY. Conversion is credible on the Extra Deck side (3500-ATK Synchros, TY-PHON, Divine Serpent Apophis) but the recorded combo evidence is empty, so ceiling and median are text-only reads. The score is held back by a monster-light Main Deck (7 monsters among 40 cards, one Tuner), a trap-heavy hand that bricks when no Trap is needed, and very low pilotability. Score comes from consistency, layered interaction and redundant searchers on the system; it is not from the Odion label, which no card in the list carries, and not from averaging card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Control, meta-neutral (D13 dropped; remaining weights renormalized by 93). Structural ≈ 62, Going First ≈ 65, Going Second ≈ 63, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 55. Modifiers: monster-light main deck and single Tuner (-3); banlist exposure at copy cap (-1); Pot of Extravagance vs Extra Deck (-1); searcher redundancy (2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers = 0.80*62 + 0.20*55 - 3 = 57.6 → 58 (Meta provisional; D13 excluded from Structural)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.9 · 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

• Redundant starters and searchers: 14 starter-capable copies and 16 search-text cards
• Layered negation and removal (Solemn chain, Dominus traps, Apophis negation, Baronne de Fleur, Bystial Dis Pater)
• High-ATK Extra Deck bosses (3500 ATK Synchros, Divine Serpent Apophis, TY-PHON) and Anubis the Last Judge in the Main Deck
• Legal in format: all Limited and Semi-Limited cards at or below their legal copy count

Weaknesses

• Only 7 monsters in the Main Deck and a single Tuner, which limits Synchro access
• Trap-heavy hand (26 Traps) with several conditional hand activations that can brick
• Solemn negations cost 1500 to 2000 LP or half LP, which is a real cost in a long game
• High decision density (chain timing, Trap-to-monster transitions, Extra Deck material routing)
• Archetype label 'Odion' is not supported by any card in the list (0% exact purity)

Critical choke points

• The Tuner count: Synchro Extra Deck access depends on Primite Labradorite Dragon as the only Main Deck Tuner
• Traps in the GY, which gate Dominus effects, Songs of the Dominators and Verdict of Anubis
• Going second with a hand of Traps and no monster, when the opponent's first summon goes unanswered

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal in master-duel: 40 Main, 15 Extra, 0 Side; all Limited and Semi-Limited cards at or below their legal copies; Card texts and banlist statuses as listed in the evidence pack; Archetype purity 0% exact name; 55 off-archetype copies across the listed sub-archetypes; Usage stat: Maxx C 100% inclusion but not in this list; Dominus Impulse, Dominus Purge and Apophis the Swamp Deity 100% inclusion and present
• Inferred: P(at least one of 14 starter-capable copies in a 5-card opening hand) ≈ 0.90; Dominus Impulse and Dominus Purge are conditional hand activations (opponent controls a card), so hand-trap function is higher than the role tag shows; Brick risk is elevated by 26 Traps and conditional activations; Solemn LP costs (1500, 2000, half LP) limit repeated interaction in long games; Extra Deck synchro access is limited by the single Main Deck Tuner; Interaction density (22 negation, 19 removal text) gives high layered interaction on the system
• Provisional: Meta Power is null; matchup and format fit (D13) are excluded from Structural; Going-first and going-second power are inferred from text and hypergeometric odds, not from recorded boards; Tournament reliability is text-derived; no win-rate telemetry exists
• Data gaps: No combos supplied (total_combos 0): combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent; Meta Power is provisional No win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchup or brick rate Archetype label 'Odion' matches no card in the list (0% exact-name purity); archetype-core comparison is unreliable Evidence inconsistency: usage_statistics marks Super Starslayer TY-PHON (93039339) and Link Spider (98978921) as not in this deck and S:P Little Knight (29301450) as not in this deck, but the card list runs TY-PHON x2, Link Spider x1 and S:P Little Knight x1 Songs of the Dominators runs 3 copies against a usage typical of 2 Probabilities 'archetype_core_group' (copies_in_deck 34) double-counts copies and was not used No guides attached; no side deck (Master Duel)
