Prophecy Deck #752208 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 20/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 59 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 9 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra Deck boss monsters (Black Chaos, Black Luster Soldier, Magician of Dark Chaos - Black Chaos, Master of Chaos) reached through Ritual and Fusion lines off Dark Magician and Light and Darkness Ritual cards; Link and Synchro board pressure (Accesscode Talker, Chaos Angel, Ancient Fairy Dragon) once the field is populated
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Dark Magical Curtain, Dark Magical Circle or Magician's Rod to search Dark Magician-named support, then bridge into a Ritual or Fusion boss; Forbidden cards are not legal and would have to be removed before this plan can be played
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Nibiru, Solemn Strike, Solemn Judgment and Droll & Lock Bird to answer the opponent's first Summon or activation, then rebuild with Mulcharmy draw-engine and searcher effects
• Recovery: Recover through Mulcharmy Fuwalos and Mulcharmy Purulia draws, Witch of the Black Forest and Griffoh GY effects, and Light and Darkness Ritual recursion, all of which depend on a near-empty field
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs no Side Deck (side_count 0), so there is no post-side plan to assess

Why it scores here

The deck cannot be scored as a normal legal list: it runs six Forbidden cards and three over-limit cards, so it is Illegal in the TCG format and the final score is capped at 20. Structurally, the list has real interaction density (8 hand traps and 9 negation-text cards), and Dark Magician and Light and Darkness Ritual searchers give it a plausible starter route. However, the core is fragmented: exact-name Prophecy purity is 5.4%, with 70 off-archetype copies spread across more than 15 sub-archetypes, which lowers brick management and the consistency of any single engine. No recorded boards, no tournament link and no side deck exist, so the ceiling and median are text-only inference and the score is not a popularity or meta-share read. The structural score was built from the Toolbox weight profile on the 14 dimensions, not from averaging card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox profile used as-is for Structural; Midrange was considered as a secondary strategy but not blended, because no combo data supports a combo ratio. Structural ≈ 47, Going First ≈ 42, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: Banlist exposure (-12); Engine conflicts (-4); Illegal deck cap (-13). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability = 0.80*47 + 0.20*35 = 44.6; context modifiers -12 (capped) gives 33; Illegal-deck legality cap sets final to 20

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.85 · 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

• Layered negation: Ash Blossom, Nibiru, Solemn Strike, Solemn Judgment and Droll & Lock Bird give multiple answers to the opponent's first Summon or activation
• High searcher density (18 searcher-text cards) gives an 85% chance of at least one searcher in a 5-card opening hand
• Ritual and Fusion boss lines (Black Chaos, Black Luster Soldier, Master of Chaos) provide high-ATK closing power

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: six Forbidden cards and three over-limit cards
• Exact-name Prophecy purity is 5.4%, so the engine is split across many sub-archetypes
• No side deck, so no post-side adaptability
• No recorded boards, tournament data or win-rate telemetry to measure the ceiling or median

Critical choke points

• Forbidden Secret Village of the Spellcasters and Magicians' Souls are central to the Dark Magician and Spellcaster lines; removing them breaks two starter routes
• Light and Darkness Ritual is the main route to the highest-ATK bosses; it is a single-copy card and a single point of failure

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Deck is Illegal: six Forbidden cards and three over-limit cards run in TCG; Main 59 and Extra 15 are within the 40-60 and 0-15 size rules; Side deck is empty (side_count 0); Exact-name Prophecy purity is 5.4%
• Inferred: Searcher and hand-trap hypergeometric draw odds (0.85 and 0.60); Structural dimension scores and their weights; Primary strategy Toolbox, with Midrange and Control as secondary strategies
• Provisional: Format fit (D13) and Meta Power, because no tournament link or dated metagame sample exists
• 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 or going-second, matchup, brick or starter rates) Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck title is null; the archetype label is the only identifier
