Infernoid Deck #755356 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 60 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion or Link-summon large Infernoid boards (Infernoid Tierra, Attondel, Sjette, Mediclius) and attack through a thinned board; Void recursion and GY-banish value engines (Void Breach, Infernoid Evil) for incremental advantage
• Turn 1 (going first): Open an Infernoid starter (Decatron, Antra, Pirmais or Patrulea), banish 1-3 Infernoids to Special Summon a level-8-or-lower board, then Dark Fusion or Poly into Tierra or Evil
• Turn 2 (going second): Use a single Infernoid starter to answer the opponent's board, then rebuild through Void Imagination and Void Reignition; the deck has no hand traps, so this line is weak
• Recovery: Void Reignition and Void Breach recycle the Graveyard and recover Infernoids from GY or banish zone; Void Vanishment and Infernoid Evil add search
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan; sideboarding is a gap that caps D12 and TR

Why it scores here

The deck is structurally a fusion and link Infernoid midrange list: about 82% of hands with 17 archetype core cards open to at least one Infernoid, and a set of hand-summoned starters gives it a reasonable opening chance. Its ceiling comes from Tierra, Attondel, Sjette and Mediclius boards, but no recorded boards exist, so conversion and median output are Inferred from text only. Brick risk is material: 36 level-0 non-monster slots include dead-ish cards such as That Grass Looks Greener and Dark Fusion, and the Fiend-dependent and Normal-Summon-conflicting cards add dead-draw risk. Interaction is text-rich (12 negation and 30 removal text hits) but has no hand traps or floodgates, and the deck has no side deck, so going-second and post-side scores are low. Popularity of the archetype and the usage-stat core did NOT earn points, and card scores were not averaged. The Illegal status (Monster Gate and Reasoning over the Limited limit, Reprodocus Forbidden) caps the final score, so the number is a theoretical structural read only.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 38, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 42. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-5); no_side_deck (-3); illegal_cap (-7). Final formula: Illegal cap applied: unclamped 0.80*Structural(52) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(42) = 50; modifiers -8 gives 42; capped to 35 as theoretical/structural-only (Meta 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

• Large archetype core (17 copies) with about 82% opening-hand access
• Strong closing ATK from Fusion and Link Infernoid bosses
• Recursion through Void Reignition, Void Breach and Infernoid Evil

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy counts and a Forbidden card
• No side deck
• No hand traps or floodgates
• 36 non-monster slots with several dead-ish cards

Critical choke points

• Dark Fusion and Fusion material access depends on Fiend monsters being on field or in hand
• Starters require a banish cost from the hand or GY, so GY loss breaks the line

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: Monster Gate and Reasoning over Limited limit; Reprodocus Forbidden in OCG; Main 60, Extra 15, Side 0 sizes are within format size rules; Archetype core 17 copies; per-card hypergeometric odds; Stats: Tierra 3400/3600, Attondel 2800, Sjette 2400, Mediclius 3000, Promethean 2700
• Inferred: Starter access about 82% from hypergeometric core probability; Brick risk and dead-draw estimate from card text and composition; Interaction density from text hints; no hand traps; Going-first and going-second split from structure, no recorded boards
• Provisional: Meta Power: null, no dated metagame sample; Tournament reliability: no tournament_context or win-rate data
• Data gaps: no combos supplied; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry; going-first and going-second split is Inferred Meta Power is Provisional; no dated metagame sample no side deck registered; post-side plan cannot be scored deck title is null
