Runick (Mysterune) Deck #757544 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 20/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 12 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Runick Quick-Play spells skip the Battle Phase and Special Summon Runick Fusion monsters from the Extra Deck to the Extra Monster Zone, then the Fusion monsters pressure the board and banish or destroy opposing cards.; Bystial and Super Starslayer TY-PHON bosses (2500 and 2900 ATK) once the board is cleared by Runick removal or floodgates.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Runick Quick-Play spell (Runick Tip, Runick Flashing Fire or Runick Destruction) that Special Summons a Runick Fusion, then use Runick Fountain or Radiant Typhoon Vision to keep resources rolling.
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit or Runick Freezing Curses in response, then use Quick-Play removal and a floodgate (Skill Drain, Rivalry of Warlords, Gozen Match) to stall the opponent's board.
• Recovery: Runick Fountain and Runick Tip return or search Runick Quick-Play spells from the GY, and Freki or Hugin recover Runick spells from the GY.
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no Side Deck, so no post-side plan exists in the evidence.

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a system: the Runick archetype core (19 copies, about 0.89 chance of at least one in an opening 5-card hand) gives it a reasonably reliable engine that converts into Runick Quick-Play spells, Fusion summons and recursion through Runick Fountain and Radiant Typhoon Vision. Interaction comes from several Quick-Play removal spells and a floodgate package (Skill Drain, Rivalry of Warlords, Gozen Match, There Can Be Only One, Inspector Boarder). Popularity of the Runick archetype (usage stats show the core cards in most lists) confirms the list is real and accessible, but it did not earn points for power. No combo boards exist in the evidence, so combo ceiling and floor are inferred from card text only, and the individual card scores were not averaged. The deck is illegal in OCG (Mirage of Nightmare at 3 copies while Forbidden, and Runick Fountain at 3 copies while Limited to 1), so the final score is capped low and the evaluation is theoretical and structural only.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary with Stun-style floodgate emphasis (disclosed, not applied). Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 48, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12); no side deck (0). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers = 50.6 before modifiers; illegal deck capped at 20 (theoretical/structural only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.89 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.11 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Runick archetype core at 3 copies each gives a high chance of an opening engine starter
• Runick Fusion Extra Deck access from several Quick-Play spells
• Floodgate and Quick-Play removal package adds interaction

Weaknesses

• Illegal in OCG: Mirage of Nightmare (Forbidden) and Runick Fountain over the copy limit
• No Side Deck at all
• Floodgate-heavy main deck with many single copies creates dead draws
• No combo evidence, so the ceiling and floor are unmeasured

Critical choke points

• Runick Quick-Play spells as the sole engine starters
• Runick Fusion monsters depend on at least one Runick Quick-Play spell resolving

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main Deck is 55 cards and Extra Deck is 12 cards, both within OCG size rules; Mirage of Nightmare is Forbidden and runs 3 copies; Runick Fountain is Limited to 1 and runs 3 copies; Runick core inclusion is 100 percent for Flashing Fire and Freezing Curses in usage stats
• Inferred: P(at least one archetype core card in opening 5) ≈ 0.89; Consistency and brick rates are estimated from the copy histogram; Interaction quality is read from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power is null because no dated metagame sample is supplied; Matchup fit (D13) is provisional without a meta sample
• 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 Side Deck — post-side plan not evaluable no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN — those signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
