Sinful Spoils Deck #750882 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 25/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Toolbox
• Secondary strategies: Midrange
• Format: tcg

Legality

Main 60 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 13 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Boss monsters from the Extra Deck (Dark Magician of Destruction is absent; the live boss pool is Black Chaos / Black Luster Soldier / Magician of Dark Chaos - Black Chaos, plus link beaters such as Firewall Dragon and Accesscode Talker); Link and Fusion beatdown with negation backup (Selene, Dharc, Zenna's Deceiving Doll Maidens, Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon, which is Forbidden)
• Turn 1 (going first): Search through Diabellstar / WANTED / Witch of the Black Forest style searchers and set up a Light and Darkness Ritual or Mulcharmy board; holding Ash and Droll as backup
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird and Solemn Judgment (Limited) to answer the opponent's starter, then Ritual or Link through the board
• Recovery: Mulcharmy draws and Pot of Sloth refill the hand; Skull Archfiend of Chaos and Mind Shuffle recur engine pieces from GY and Deck
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no side deck (side_count 0), so no post-side plan exists in the evidence

Why it scores here

This evaluation is theoretical/structural-only because the list is Illegal: 8 Forbidden cards are in the Main and Extra Decks, and 6 more cards (WANTED x3, Droll x2, and the Semi-Limited Ash, Dominus Impulse and Solemn Warning) exceed their legal copy limits, so no normal Final Contextual score applies and the score is capped at 25. The structural read of about 47 comes from the system, not from averaging the card scores: 14 singletons across 31 distinct Main Deck cards and only 5.3% exact-name Sinful Spoils purity give a split engine (Light and Darkness Ritual, Mulcharmy, Dark Magician, Solemn, Charmer, Azamina) with a 0.69 chance of at least one core-archetype card in the opening 5. Interaction density is the strongest axis (23 removal-text and 15 negation-text cards, 5 hand traps, P(at least one hand trap in a 6-card going-second hand) about 0.42), while D3 and D4 stay near 35-40 because no recorded boards exist to measure combo ceiling or median output. Popularity did not earn points: the archetype core shows 100% inclusion in usage statistics, but that confirms the list is real, not that it is strong. The side deck is empty, so the post-side dimension is low.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox. Structural ≈ 47, Going First ≈ 45, Going Second ≈ 42, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); engine conflicts (-4). Final formula: Illegal list: normal formula not applied. Structural about 47 and TR 35 give 0.80*47+0.20*35 = about 45 before modifiers; after -12 modifiers about 33, then capped at 25 for illegality (theoretical/structural-only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.69 · 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: 23 removal-text and 15 negation-text cards, plus 5 hand traps
• Searcher density (18 cards) gives a good chance of finding a live starter
• Two-engine flexibility: ritual boss pool and link beaters from the Extra Deck

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: 8 Forbidden cards and 6 copy-limit overages
• Split engine: 5.3% exact-name Sinful Spoils purity
• No side deck, so no post-side adaptation
• No combo evidence to measure ceiling or median output

Critical choke points

• Single hand trap or Ash Blossom answers the first live starter; no independent second line is evidenced
• Forbidden Extra-Deck engines (Azamina Ilia Silvia, Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon, Protectcode Talker) remove the intended payoffs on a legal rebuild

Recommended changes

• Observed: No observed combo boards (combos_evidence total 0)
• Inferred: Hypergeometric starter and hand-trap probabilities; Dimension scores D1 through D11 from card text and composition; Structural estimate of about 47
• Provisional: Meta Power (null) and D13 matchup fit, no dated metagame sample
• Data gaps: No combos supplied; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry; going-first, going-second, matchup and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional; no dated metagame sample No side deck (side_count 0)
