Familiar-Possessed Deck #753307 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 5 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Charmer and Familiar-Possessed boards converted through Fusion/Link follow-ups (Charmers of the Grand Circle, Fiendsmith's Lacrima, Crowley, Accesscode Talker); Dark Magician Girl / Dark Magician of Destruction Extra Deck pressure and Imsety / Horus beatdown
• Turn 1 (going first): Turn 1 Normal Summon of a searcher (Spiritual Art Familiars or Spellbook Magician of Prophecy) and search a second-turn enabler; Possessed Destiny or Charmer flip monsters for board presence (Inferred; legal-list-dependent)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Effect Veiler, Maxx "C" and Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit to answer the first summon chain, then rebuild through Spellbook searchers (Inferred)
• Recovery: Spellbook of Secrets / Spellbook of the Grand Circle and Shining Sarcophagus recursion to rebuild hand after a hand-trap exchange (Inferred from text)
• After siding: Not evaluable: side deck is empty (0 cards), so no post-side plan exists in this list

Why it scores here

This OCG list is illegal: five Forbidden cards (Magicians' Souls, Charmer Quartet in Bloom, Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon, Cross-Sheep, D/D/D Wave High King Caesar) are each run at one copy against a limit of zero, so it is capped at 25 and scored as theoretical/structural only. Its strongest structural features are the hand-trap and searcher density (9 hand traps, 17 searcher-text cards, and P(at least one archetype core card in a 5-card hand) of about 0.82), which let it open functional hands and interact on the opponent's first summon. Consistency is weakened by the sub-archetype spread: only 1.8% of cards match the exact archetype name, with 54 off-archetype copies spread across Charmer, Spellbook, Fiendsmith, Dark Magician, Horus, Timaeus, Endymion, D/D and Red-Eyes, so engines compete for the same slots. No combo boards were recorded, so the floor, median and ceiling are text-only inferences, and the deck has no side deck, which leaves its post-side score at the floor. Popularity and archetype usage were not rewarded, and card scores were not averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox. Structural ≈ 49, Going First ≈ 45, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-8); engine_conflicts (-4). Final formula: Uncapped: 0.80*49 + 0.20*35 - 12 (banlist modifier) = 34; Illegal deck capped at 25 (theoretical/structural only). Meta Power is null (provisional).

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.82 · 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 hand-trap and searcher package (9 hand traps, 17 searcher-text cards)
• High core-card presence (9 of 11 usage-core cards)
• Good going-second interaction via Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Effect Veiler and Maxx "C"

Weaknesses

• Five Forbidden cards make the list illegal as built
• Only 1.8% exact-archetype purity; engines conflict
• No side deck (0 cards), so no post-side adaptability
• No recorded combos, so ceiling and median are unverified

Critical choke points

• Fiendsmith's Lacrima and Charmers of the Grand Circle are the Extra Deck payoffs; losing them to a single hand trap removes most of the closing power
• Limited cards (Droll, Engraver, Lacrima, Maxx "C", S:P Little Knight) are single-copy choke points

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: 5 Forbidden cards at 1 copy each (legal copies 0); 40 main / 15 extra / 0 side; OCG size rules pass; Core group presence 9 of 11; purity 1.8%
• Inferred: Opening-hand functional probabilities (hypergeometric); Hand-trap interaction density and recovery from text; Going-first and going-second plans
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit (no tournament link)
• 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/second, matchup and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied no side deck; post-side plan cannot be evaluated
