P.U.N.K. Deck #752632 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Stun, Toolbox
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 14 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro and Fusion boss monsters (PSY-Framelord Zeta, Psychic End Punisher, Absolute Axon Kicker, Ukiyoe-P.U.N.K. Amazing Dragon) backed by hand-trap protection and a going-second hand-trap wall; PSY-Frame Driver (2500 ATK) through PSY-Frame summon lines
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Psychic starter (Noh-P.U.N.K. Foxy Tune, Ze Amin, Deer Note, Serene Psychic Girl or Mind Procedure), reach a Tuner or Synchro line, and hold Solemn or Ash Blossom for the turn-1 response
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Ghost Ogre, Droll & Lock Bird, Evenly Matched, Maxx C) to break the opponent's first search or summon, then rebuild a board and Synchro into a boss
• Recovery: Foxy Tune and Deer Note recycle themselves from the GY; Ze Amin and Mind Procedure draw or search the next starter
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so no post-side plan can be assessed

Why it scores here

The deck can usually reach a live Psychic starter by turn 1 (P(at least one of the 13-copy archetype core in a 5-card opening hand) about 0.76, Inferred), and the Synchro and Fusion extra deck gives it a wide set of boss options. Its interaction is the main strength: 12 hand traps, several Solemn and Dominus-style negates, and a Psychic End Punisher boss give it layered end-board answers, especially when going second (about 0.79 chance of at least one hand trap in a 6-card hand, Inferred). The score is held back by a lot of off-archetype filler: only 17.4% of main deck copies are exact P.U.N.K. names and 20 tech slots compete for space, which raises brick risk. The deck is illegal in its current form because Triple Tactics Talent is Forbidden in OCG, and it has an empty side deck, so the evaluation is capped and labelled theoretical. Archetype usage stats confirm that the P.U.N.K. core is real and accessible, but that did not add points on its own; the score comes from consistency, interaction, and boss conversion on the system, not from averaging the card scores. With no recorded combos, the floor, median, and ceiling are text-only inferences and carry low confidence.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary, Stun secondary (weights from the Midrange profile only; Stun weights not blended into the score). Structural ≈ 58, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 48. Modifiers: Banlist exposure (-8); Empty side deck (-4). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural(58) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(48) = 56; modifiers total -12 = 44; Illegal cap applied (Triple Tactics Talent is Forbidden), so the final score is capped at 35 and labelled theoretical / structural-only

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.76 · 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 interaction: about 12 hand traps plus Solemn and Dominus-style negates
• Starter density across Foxy Tune, Ze Amin, Deer Note, Mind Procedure and Serene Psychic Girl
• Wide Synchro and Fusion extra deck with several 3000+ ATK bosses

Weaknesses

• Triple Tactics Talent is Forbidden, so the deck cannot be played as built
• Empty side deck gives no post-side plan
• Low exact-archetype purity (17.4%) and 20 tech slots raise brick risk

Critical choke points

• Psychic starter in hand (0.76 at 5 cards)
• Boss monsters depend on Synchro or Fusion material, which the hand traps can disrupt

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Triple Tactics Talent is Forbidden and over the copy limit (legal 0, run 1); Main 55, Extra 14, Side 0 against OCG size rules; Side deck is empty; Archetype usage stats: P.U.N.K. core cards are common (for example Psychic End Punisher 95%, JAM Extreme Session 90%)
• Inferred: Starter consistency (P >= 1 starter in 5 cards about 0.76); Hand-trap interaction density and going-second value (about 0.79 in 6 cards); Dimension scores D1 to D14 and the Structural value; Boss-conversion ceiling from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power (null: no dated metagame sample); Matchup and format fit (D13 = 50, no tournament link)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry for this deck (going-first, going-second, matchup, brick and starter rates) No dated metagame sample: Meta Power is provisional No side deck registered (side_count 0) Deck title is null
