Performapal Deck #757462 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 32/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 58 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 6 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Supreme King Z-ARC (Extra Deck Fusion, 4000 ATK) backed by Odd-Eyes and Link beatsticks, with Mitsurugi Ritual as a secondary beatstick route; Odd-Eyes Rebellion / Odd-Eyes Absolute Dragon board pressure through Pendulum Summons
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon Performapal Skullcrobat Joker or a Magician Pendulum to search, set Pendulum Zones with Supreme King Gate and Magician Pendulums, then Pendulum Summon into Link or Xyz beatsticks
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird and Ash-style interaction for the opponent's first activation, then rebuild through Pendulum searches and Special Summons
• Recovery: Searchers (Double Iris, Oafdragon Magician, Mitsurugi Saji/Aramasa/Kusanagi, Astrograph Sorcerer) rebuild the Pendulum Zones from Deck, Star Pendulumgraph and Time Pendulumgraph recur Magicians
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no Side Deck (0 cards), so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck reaches its Pendulum engine reliably, since search text covers about 95% of 5-card openers and Pendulum searchers make the starter accessible, but this does not earn a high score on its own. Conversion is weak: no recorded boards exist, so the ceiling and median are text-only inference, and the archetype core (Odd-Eyes and Exceed the Pendulum) has only about 31% of its usage-standard core present. Interaction is dense (10 hand traps, 18 negation-text cards), which supports the Midrange/Toolbox read, but the Side Deck is empty and no tournament or matchup data exists, so going-second and format fit stay low. The deck is Illegal: three Forbidden cards and three copy-limit overflows cap the final score at 32; this is a structural read only, not a power score. Popularity did not earn points, and no card scores were averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 45, Going First ≈ 42, Going Second ≈ 44, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (Forbidden cards in main) (-6); copy-limit overflow (-6). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) = 44, then illegal-deck modifiers (-12) = 32

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.24 · 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

• Searchers and Pendulum recursion make the engine reliably reachable from the opening hand
• Dense interaction: 10 hand traps and 18 negation-text cards
• Strong top-end beatsticks in the Extra Deck (Supreme King Z-ARC, Odd-Eyes Absolute, Odd-Eyes Vortex)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: three Forbidden cards and three copy-limit overflows
• No Side Deck, so no best-of-3 adaptation
• Low archetype purity (0% exact-name) and 73 off-archetype copies weaken engine coherence
• Only about 31% of the archetype's usage-standard core is present

Critical choke points

• Supreme King Z-ARC is the main win condition and depends on Supreme King Gate Zero plus Pendulum setup
• Forbidden and over-limit cards must be removed before the list can be played; the current list cannot be played as built

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality status Illegal with six violations (three Forbidden, three over copy limit); Main 58 and Extra 15 are within OCG size rules; Side is 0; Extra Deck breakdown: 7 Link, 3 Fusion, 2 Xyz, 3 Synchro; Archetype usage: 4 of 13 standard core cards present (30.8%)
• Inferred: Opening-hand starter access about 0.24 (3-copy card, going first); Interaction density from role-hint text counts; Going-second hand-trap coverage about 0.70 (hand 6, 10 hand traps); Brick and conflict risk from Pendulum and Reptile mix
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Format fit (tournament_context unavailable)
• 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 are absent No win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick and starter rates) Meta Power is provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied No Side Deck supplied, so post-side plan is unknown
