Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Xyz boards built from Dragon Ruler Level 7 monsters (Chasma, Eclipse, Disaster) and Armed Dragon / Dragon Ruler beaters (Blaze, Dark Armed, Super Starslayer); Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS and Voloferniges as single-copy closers
  • Turn 1 (going first): Open a Dragon Ruler starter (Blaster, Spectral, Tempest, Tidal, Reactan), search or revive a second Dragon through its hand/GY effect, then Xyz Summon into a Dragon Ruler Xyz
  • Turn 2 (going second): Use Skull Meister, Emissary from the House of Wax or Heavenly Zephyr - Miradora as hand interaction, then rebuild through the Dragon Ruler GY revival chain
  • Recovery: Recur Dragon Ruler monsters from the Graveyard and banishment via Blaster, Tempest, Tidal and Redox effects, then re-Xyz
  • After siding: No Side Deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan to evaluate

Why it scores here

The deck opens a Dragon Ruler starter reliably enough: 7 of 8 archetype core cards are present, and the archetype-core group has about an 83% chance of at least one hit in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred). Its searchers, recursion effects and Dragon Ruler revival chain give it several independent routes after a single disruption, and its Xyz closers are strong on the board. Interaction is broad (31 removal-text cards, 6 negation-text cards, 2 hand traps), but the list is diluted: only 15.7% of copies are exact-name Dragon Ruler, with 51 generic cards, so the engine is less coherent than the archetype name suggests. The score is not an average of the card scores, and popularity did not earn points because usage stats confirm the core only. The list is Illegal (2 copies of Gold Sarcophagus against a Limited limit of 1), so the score is capped at 30 and labeled structural-only, and the absence of a side deck and combo data keeps the confidence at Medium.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 72 P(at least one core Dragon Ruler starter in 5 cards) ≈ 0.83; 7 of 8 usage-core cards present (Inferred, Verified for copy counts)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 62 17 searcher-text cards and 3-copy starters lower brick risk, but Torrential Tribute, Lightning Vortex and Mystical Space Typhoon add dead-card risk (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 55 No recorded boards; Chasma, Eclipse and Disaster give a strong Xyz ceiling from text alone (Inferred)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 45 No combo data, so median output is unknown and kept near the low-middle of the range (Inferred, not measured)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 55 Multiple independent starters and GY revival chains provide redundancy, but the Dragon Ruler line is single-thread through the hand/GY revival (Inferred)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 60 Searchers and GY/banish recursion (Blaster, Tempest, Tidal, Redox) regenerate resources well (Inferred from card text)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 68 31 removal-text and 6 negation-text cards, plus Unbreakable Xyz Barrier and Emissary (Verified card text, Inferred quality)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 55 Two hand traps and Lightning Vortex give some going-second answers, but no side deck and limited board-breaking (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 72 Several 2800-3000 ATK Xyz/Link-free beaters (Blaze, Dark Armed, Super Starslayer, Divine Arsenal) give strong closing (Verified ATK, Inferred use)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 58 55 main cards across 27 distinct names, with only 11 exact-name Dragon Ruler copies and 59 off-archetype copies (Verified composition, Inferred efficiency)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 62 15 Xyz slots filled with 10 distinct cards; Dragon Ruler Xyz plus single-copy Divine Arsenal and Super Starslayer give variety (Verified composition)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 10 No Side Deck is registered, so post-side adaptability is effectively zero (Verified)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 50 No tournament or meta-share data is available, so format fit is Provisional
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 40 Several multi-step revival and Xyz lines with many decision points, and low exact-name purity raises pilot burden (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 57, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 48. Modifiers: Banlist exposure (Gold Sarcophagus over limit) (-6); Engine conflict / low exact-name purity (-3); No side deck (0); Illegal list cap (-16). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + modifiers = 46 uncapped; capped at 30 because the list is Illegal (theoretical/structural-only)

Probability & combo summary

  • Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.83 · 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

  • Seven of eight usage-core Dragon Ruler cards present
  • Strong Xyz closers (Chasma, Eclipse, Disaster, Blaze, Dark Armed)
  • Broad removal and negation text across the main deck
  • Multiple GY and banish recursion routes

Weaknesses

  • Illegal: Gold Sarcophagus run at 2 copies against a Limited limit of 1
  • No side deck
  • Low exact-name archetype purity (15.7%) with 51 generic cards
  • No recorded combo boards to measure median output

Critical choke points

  • Dragon Ruler starter access in the opening hand
  • Single-copy Xyz closers (Divine Arsenal, Super Starslayer, Voloferniges) that are not reliably reachable
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 One copy of Gold Sarcophagus Any legal main-deck card (e.g. one extra Dragon Ruler searcher or starter) Makes the list legal, which removes the Illegal cap; the copy limit is a hard rule
2 Off-archetype generic cards with low synergy (e.g. Lightning Vortex or Torrential Tribute) Additional Dragon Ruler or Armed Dragon engine pieces Raises exact-name purity and reduces dead-card risk
3 None (no side deck registered) A 10-15 card side deck with hand traps and negation Gives a post-side plan and raises D12 from its current floor

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Gold Sarcophagus over copy limit (2 vs 1); Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 within size rules; Archetype core present 7 of 8; Exact-name purity 15.7%
  • Inferred: Starter access P(at least one) ≈ 0.83 (hypergeometric); Brick and dead-card risk from card text; Interaction quality from removal and negation text; Recursion and resource regeneration from card text
  • Provisional: Meta power and matchup fit (no dated metagame sample); Tournament reliability (no tournament link)
  • Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference No tournament link, so archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied No side deck registered
