Fabled Deck #756481 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 16 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 9 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra Deck boards from Fiendsmith, Archfiend and Link/Xyz lines (Desirae, Luce, Underworld Goddess, A Bao A Qu) after a Fiend-based engine starts; Recursive Infernity and Mulcharmy card advantage that grinds the opponent out over several turns
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a searcher (Fiendsmith Engraver/Tract, Infernity Archfiend, Archfiend Heiress) and Special Summon into a Link or Fusion, using Mulcharmy draws as the buffer. Only one legal copy of each Limited Fiendsmith piece is possible.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Droll & Lock Bird, Solemn Strike and Solemn Judgment to slow the opponent's summons, then rebuild from the GY through Infernity and Archfiend recursion. The 16-card Extra Deck is not legal as built, so this plan is theoretical.
• Recovery: Infernity Necromancer, Infernity Patriarch and Archfiend Heiress recover the GY, and Pot of Sloth and Mulcharmy draws refill the hand. Infernity revival requires an empty hand, which conflicts with Mulcharmy's draw conditions.
• After siding: None. The deck has no Side Deck, which leaves no post-side plan (OCG allows up to 15 Side cards).

Why it scores here

This is an Illegal list, so it does not receive a normal Final Contextual score. The structural read was computed on the full 55-card Main and 16-card Extra, then capped. The deck runs four engine families (Fiendsmith, Infernity, Archfiend and Mulcharmy) with 11 searcher-text cards, and P(at least one searcher in a 5-card opening hand) is about 0.69 (Inferred). Its interaction is the strongest part, with two hand traps, Solemn Strike, Solemn Judgment, Droll & Lock Bird, Harpie's Feather Duster and Forbidden Droplet. Its ceiling is unknown because no recorded boards exist, so the combo scores rest on text reads only. The Extra Deck exceeds the OCG limit by one, and three Extra Deck cards plus several Main Deck cards are Forbidden in OCG, so the list cannot be played as built. The score was not averaged from card scores and does not reflect archetype popularity; the Fabled archetype tag covers only one card in the list.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange (meta-neutral, D13 excluded and weights renormalized over 95). Structural ≈ 47.5, Going First ≈ 45, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: Banlist exposure (-8); Engine conflicts (-4); Illegal list cap (-8). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + modifiers (-12) = 33, then capped to 25 because the list is Illegal (theoretical/structural-only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.69 · 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 interaction suite: two hand traps, three Solemn-family cards, Droll, Harpie's Feather Duster and Forbidden Droplet
• Eleven searcher-text cards give a reasonable chance of a starter in hand
• Extra Deck has several strong closers (Luce, Desirae, Underworld Goddess, A Bao A Qu)

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: Extra Deck over the limit, five Forbidden cards and several Limited cards over their legal copy counts
• No Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan
• Four archetype families with conflicting conditions and exact-name purity of 1.4%
• No recorded combos, no guides and no tournament data, so the ceiling is unverified

Critical choke points

• Fiendsmith Engraver and Fiendsmith's Tract are Limited to one copy each, so the Fiendsmith search and engine cannot be reliably rebuilt
• Infernity revival requires an empty hand, which conflicts with Mulcharmy and Heiress draws

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: OCG Extra Deck 16 exceeds 15; five Forbidden copies and several Limited copies over legal counts; Main Deck 55 cards and 32 distinct names; copy histogram 19 singleton, 3 double, 10 triple; Exact Fabled name purity 1.4%; archetype spread across nine sub-archetypes
• Observed: No recorded combo boards exist, so no floor, median or ceiling is observed
• Inferred: Searcher-text group P(at least one in 5-card hand) ≈ 0.69 as an engine-access proxy; Interaction density is high on text reads of the hand traps, Solemn cards and Droll; Engine conflicts between Infernity, Mulcharmy and Archfiend resource conditions
• Provisional: Meta Power and format fit (D13) are unknown without a dated metagame sample
• 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 for going-first, going-second, matchup or brick rates Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample No Side Deck, so post-side behavior cannot be assessed Deck title is null
