Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 56/100 (±6 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 41 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion Summon Azamina (4000 ATK) or Dark Magician of Destruction / Queen Azamina boards, enabled by Sinful Spoils and Diabell searchers and Azamina Fusion-Summon spells; Diabellstar and Diabellze boards with Diabell ATK gain and recursion from the GY, plus Azamina Mu Rcielago/Sol Erysichthon ATK pressure
• Turn 1 (going first): Search a Diabell or Sinful Spoils card (Filia Diabell, WANTED, Sinful Spoils Subdual) and use Azamina Determination or The Hallowed Azamina to Fusion Summon Azamina or Saint Azamina, then extend through Azamina Debtors and Deception of the Sinful Spoils
• Turn 2 (going second): Without hand traps, rely on Sinful Spoils of Betrayal/Slumber/Subversion removal and Snake-Eye to answer the opponent's first board, then Fusion Summon Azamina or Saint Azamina through the same searchers
• Recovery: Recycle Sinful Spoils and Diabell spells from the GY with WANTED, Trap Holic and Traptantalizing Tune, and rebuild a Fusion line through Azamina Determination or Debtors
• After siding: No side deck is registered; there is no post-side plan to evaluate

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens an Azamina engine: 19 exact-name Azamina copies and 11 searcher-text cards give a P(at least one core card in an opening 5) of about 0.96, so the engine is almost always reachable on turn 1 (Inferred). Its ceiling is a Fusion-chained board with 4000-ATK Azamina and Saint Azamina plus Diabell and Dark Magician of Destruction pressure, but no recorded combo boards exist, so the ceiling and median are text-based estimates. Interaction is the strongest part: 22 removal-text and 3 negation-text cards, Sinful Spoils removal, and Azamina's on-field ATK reduction give layered end-board control, while the lack of hand traps keeps going-second answers weaker. The score comes from consistency, median output and interaction on the system, not from Azamina's popularity and not from averaging individual card scores. Only 8 main-deck monsters, 34% exact-name purity, zero side cards and a complex multi-step line pull the score down.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 59.4, Going First ≈ 62, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: Extra-Deck dependence (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) + ContextModifiers = 0.80*59.4 + 0.20*50 - 2 = 55.5, rounded to 56

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.96 · 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

• Core archetype access is very high (≈0.96 for at least one core card in an opening 5)
• Layered removal and negation text across Sinful Spoils and Azamina effects
• Fusion Summon routes to 4000-ATK and 2800-ATK bosses with Extra-Deck flexibility
• Searchers and GY recursion keep the deck from running out of resources

Weaknesses

• Only 8 main-deck monsters; Fusion requires Spell/Trap enablers that can clog the opening hand
• No hand traps and no side deck, so going-second and matchup adaptation are weak
• 34% exact archetype purity means the engine depends on Diabell and Sinful Spoils crossover
• Multi-step line with many once-per-turn gates raises pilot error risk

Critical choke points

• Sinful Spoils and Diabell searchers: if neither is drawn, the Azamina Fusion starter has no enabler
• The single Extra-Deck Azamina access path is the main point of failure if a Fusion Summon is negated
• Going second with no hand trap leaves the first board unanswered until Sinful Spoils removal resolves

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main deck 41 cards, Extra 15, side 0; legal under master-duel size rules; WANTED: Seeker of Sinful Spoils is Limited at 1 copy and is run at 1; Card counts and copy histogram (3/2/1), Fusion/Synchro composition, 34% exact-name archetype purity; Usage statistics show 11 of 25 core cards present (44%)
• Inferred: P(≥1 archetype core card in opening 5) ≈ 0.96 from hypergeometric draw; Azamina engine accessibility and roughly a third of opening hands lacking a main-deck monster; Interaction density from removal and negation text (semantic read); Going-second weakness from zero hand traps and zero side cards; Recovery through WANTED, Trap Holic and Traptantalizing Tune
• Provisional: Meta Power (null: no dated metagame sample); Matchup and format fit (D13), since no tournament link or meta share exists; Median output (D4), since no recorded boards exist
• 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 no side deck registered, so D12 post-side cannot be verified
