Odion Deck #754172 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

• Primary strategy: Control
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Stun
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra Deck boss monsters (Bystial Dis Pater, Centur-Ion Legatia, Divine Serpent Apophis, Anubis-linked Temple of the Kings beats) reached by trading negations and traps for tempo; Apophis/Temple of the Kings recursion and Tornado Dragon / Baronne de Fleur board control
• Turn 1 (going first): Open on Primite Lordly Lode or Man with the Mark to search a Primite/Temple piece, set Solemn and Dominus traps, and hold hand traps for the opponent's first summon
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Infinite Impermanence, Ash Blossom, Maxx C, Dominus Impulse/Purge) to break the opponent's first board, then convert the recovered resources into a Synchro or Fusion boss
• Recovery: Re-set Apophis and Dominus traps from the GY and use Man with the Mark or Temple searches to rebuild the trap count for Anubis and Verdict of Anubis
• After siding: Not evaluable: the export has no side deck (0 cards), so no post-side plan exists in this list

Why it scores here

The deck's score is driven by system-level interaction: 22 negation-text cards, 8 hand-trap copies (P≥1 in a 6-card going-second hand ≈ 0.76), and layered trap-based stops give it strong end-board interaction and going-second pressure. Its engine is only moderately reliable: each 2–3 copy starter has roughly a 24–34% chance of appearing in a 5-card opener, the archetype is split across Primite, Dominus, Temple of the Kings and Apophis rather than one coherent core, and many lines need three distinct Traps in the GY, which drives brick and pilotability risk. No recorded boards exist, so combo ceiling and median output are text-only inferences and are scored conservatively. The deck is illegal in its format because Dimension Shifter (Forbidden) is run at one copy, and it has no side deck, so the score is capped low and reported as structural only. Popularity in the archetype's usage statistics confirms the list is real and accessible but did not earn points, and card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Control primary (≈80%) with Toolbox secondary (≈20%) weights, D13 retained, no meta sample. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (Forbidden card run) (-10); no side deck (-2); hard-garnet / conditional burden (0); illegal-list cap (-4). Final formula: Illegal cap: Structural 52 with 0.80·Structural + 0.20·TournamentReliability ≈ 51 before modifiers; modifiers −12 → ≈39; capped to 35 because the list is illegal (theoretical/structural-only). Meta provisional.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.34 · 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

• 22 negation-text cards and 8 hand-trap copies give strong interaction density
• Extra Deck bosses at 2800–3500 ATK provide closing power
• Searcher text (12 cards) gives high in-hand access to key pieces

Weaknesses

• Illegal in Master Duel: Dimension Shifter (Forbidden) run at one copy
• 29 level-0 main cards and 23 distinct main cards make the engine low-density
• No side deck, so no post-side adaptation

Critical choke points

• Temple of the Kings and Apophis lines need 3 distinct Traps in the GY
• Divine Serpent Apophis and Anubis require specific Apophis/Temple resources

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Dimension Shifter is Forbidden with 0 legal copies, run at 1 (over limit); Main 40, Extra 15, Side 0 within master-duel size rules; Solemn Strike, Solemn Judgment, Solemn Warning, Maxx C and Pot of Extravagance each run at 1 copy, within Limited status; Extra Deck boss ATK values from card data
• Observed: Usage stats: Maxx C, Apophis the Swamp Deity and Treasures of the Kings are archetype-core inclusions (100%, 100%, 95%)
• Inferred: Starter probabilities ≈ 0.24–0.34 for 2–3 copies in opening 5; Going-second hand-trap access ≈ 0.76; Structural and dimension scores
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated meta sample); Matchup and format fit (no tournament data)
• 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 and brick/starter rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied deck title is null in the export
