Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Xyz and Link board pressure built from K9 and Hieratic-adjacent searchers, with Fusion and Xyz follow-ups; no recorded boards to confirm which line closes most often; Going-second Solemn and hand-trap protection that lets the Extra Deck threats survive to attack
  • Turn 1 (going first): Search a K9 or Super Quant starter (Chaotic Elements, K9-66b Lantern, Super Quantum Red Layer), protect the first Xyz or Link with Solemn and Ash Blossom, then convert through K9-X Forced Release or K9-17 Ripper
  • Turn 2 (going second): Hold Droll and Lock Bird, Maxx C, Ash Blossom and Solemn Judgment for the opponent's first summon or search, then rebuild through the searcher-rich Main Deck
  • Recovery: Searchers (16 searcher-text cards) refill the hand, and Raigeki or Harpie's Feather Duster clear the board; this line is only as good as the legal list, so it is not evaluated as a normal deck
  • After siding: Not applicable: the deck has zero Side Deck cards, so no post-side plan exists in the export

Why it scores here

The score comes from the system, not from averaging card power: the list runs seven hand traps, 18 negation-text cards and 16 searcher-text cards, which gives it a real interaction layer (D7 70) and a usable going-second plan (D8 60). Its starter access is weak, though: only 4 copies of the exact archetype name sit in a 55-card Main Deck (5.7% purity) spread across K9, Solemn, Super Quant, Forbidden and Kaiju, so the archetype-core chance in a five-card opening hand is about 32% (D1 45). Brick risk is high with 32 level-0 spells and traps and 22 generic cards (D2 40, D10 35). No combos were recorded, so the ceiling and median are text-only inference. Popularity was not credited, and the deck is capped low because it is illegal: K9-04 Noroi is Forbidden and A Case for K9 runs three copies against a limit of one.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 45 Archetype-core P(>=1 in opening 5) ≈ 0.32; searcher-text P(>=1) ≈ 0.83; exact-name purity 5.7% limits engine consistency (Inferred)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 40 32 level-0 spells and traps and 22 generic cards; several hands will be dead or conflicting Normal Summons (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 45 No parseable boards; ceiling is inferred from K9 and Super Quant Xyz text only (Inferred)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 35 combos_evidence.total_combos = 0; median output cannot be measured from the export (Provisional)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 55 Seven hand traps and two Solemn-type negates offer redundant interruption; Droll and Maxx C add draw-denial routes (Inferred)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 50 16 searcher-text cards and Chaotic Elements give recovery; no resource_signature data (Inferred)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 70 18 negation-text and 18 removal-text cards across Solemn, Ash Blossom, Droll, Maxx C and Raigeki (Inferred from text)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 60 Hand-trap group P(>=1 in opening 6) ≈ 0.58 on the going-second side; Chimeratech and Xyz boards add pressure (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 55 Closing relies on Xyz threats around 2500 to 3300 ATK (Vallon, Magnaliger, K9-X Werewolf) with no recorded board conversion (Inferred)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 35 Main Deck is 55 cards with 30 distinct names and 66 off-archetype copies; compactness is low (Verified composition)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 45 15 Extra Deck cards: 11 Xyz, 3 Fusion, 1 Link across 13 distinct names; Xyz heavy with mandatory overlap (Verified composition)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 10 Zero Side Deck cards in the export; no post-side plan exists (Verified)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 40 No tournament link and no dated meta sample; format fit is provisional, and Forbidden and Limited cards cut against it (Provisional)
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 40 Multi-step K9 Xyz chains and Solemn timing require a skilled pilot; decision points are numerous (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox. Structural ≈ 47, Going First ≈ 44, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) = 44.6, minus 12 banlist exposure = 32.6, capped at 30 because legality status is Illegal

Probability & combo summary

  • Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.32 · 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 hand traps and 18 negation-text cards give a layered interaction package
  • 16 searcher-text cards support recovery and consistency
  • Going-second hand-trap coverage is above average for the format

Weaknesses

  • Illegal list: K9-04 Noroi is Forbidden and A Case for K9 is over its limit
  • Only 4 exact-name Hieratic cards; purity 5.7% undermines engine cohesion
  • No Side Deck; no post-side adaptation
  • 32 level-0 spells and traps raise brick risk

Critical choke points

  • Opening hand needs a K9 or Super Quant starter; P(archetype core in 5) ≈ 0.32
  • Forbidden K9-04 Noroi removes a key Xyz-engine piece unless removed from the list
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 K9-04 Noroi (3 copies) A legal K9 Level 5 monster or a Hieratic staple Forbidden status makes the deck illegal; a replacement restores a legal list
2 2 of the 3 "A Case for K9" A searcher or staple that is unrestricted Limited to 1 copy; the second and third copies are over the limit
3 2 to 3 level-0 spells or traps Additional Level 5 starters or Hieratic monsters Reduces the brick rate, which the floor and median depend on
4 None (Side Deck is empty) A 15-card Side Deck tuned to the expected opposing archetypes D12 is 10 because the list has no post-side plan at all

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Legality status Illegal: K9-04 Noroi (Forbidden, 3 copies) and A Case for K9 (Limited, 3 copies); Main 55, Extra 15, Side 0; 30 distinct Main names; Exact-name Hieratic purity 5.7%
  • Inferred: Archetype-core opening-hand chance ≈ 0.32; High brick risk from 32 level-0 spells and traps; Interaction density from negation and removal text
  • Provisional: Meta power and format fit (no dated sample); Going-second plan quality
  • Data gaps: No combos supplied: 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, matchups or brick rates Meta power is provisional without a dated metagame sample No Side Deck in the export, so D12 cannot be measured beyond its absence
