Dragonmaid Deck #758070 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 53 / Extra 17 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra Deck Fusion/Xyz/Link boards built from Dragonmaid, Dragon Ruler and Amorphage pendulum-summon lines (theoretical; no recorded boards); Dragon Ruler Xyz and Fusion finishers such as Sheou, House Dragonmaid and Chasma once a board exists
• Turn 1 (going first): Open on a Dragonmaid searcher or Changeover, reach a Dragon-type Level 7 or 8 starter, then Fusion or Link toward a 2700-3500 ATK boss (Inferred; no recorded boards)
• Turn 2 (going second): Six-card hand with a Dragonmaid searcher or Dragon Ruler starter, using the Battle Phase bounce-and-special-summon engine to rebuild after an opposing board (Inferred)
• Recovery: Returning monsters from Dragonmaid and Dragon Ruler effects to the hand and re-summoning them from the GY; the Pendulum core is the least recoverable part (Inferred)
• After siding: Not assessable: the deck has no side deck (0 cards) and no post-side data exists

Why it scores here

The deck's engine is reasonably accessible: the 15-card Dragonmaid/Dragon Ruler core is present in about 83% of opening 5-card hands, and 19 searcher-text cards give about a 90% chance of at least one searcher. The system is not scored as an average of its cards. Its conversion from starter to Extra Deck boss is plausible on paper but unverified, since no recorded boards exist and the combo ceiling and median are text-only inferences. Interaction is thin: no hand traps and one Limited floodgate, with only a few on-field negates in the Extra Deck. Two Forbidden cards and a 17-card Extra Deck mean the list is illegal in OCG, so it is capped low and scored as a theoretical structural read only. Popularity was not credited: the archetype's usage stats only show that the list is a real, accessible build.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 47, Going First ≈ 45, Going Second ≈ 40, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); no side deck (-3). Final formula: Illegal cap applied: 0.80*Structural(47) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(40) = 45.6; context modifiers -11 gives 34.6; capped to 30 because the list is Illegal (theoretical/structural read only). Meta Power provisional.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.83 · 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

• Searcher density: 19 searcher-text cards give about a 90% chance of at least one searcher in an opening 5
• Starter access: the 15-card archetype core is in about 83% of opening 5-card hands
• Boss ATK ceiling (2500-3500) across Fusion, Xyz and Link finishers

Weaknesses

• Two Forbidden Amorphage Pendulums in the Main Deck make the list illegal
• Extra Deck of 17 exceeds the OCG cap of 15
• No side deck, so there is no post-side plan
• Little interaction: no hand traps and only one Limited floodgate

Critical choke points

• Pendulum scale setup relies on Amorphage cards that are Forbidden in OCG
• Extra Deck access depends on Dragon-type Level 7-8 starters that only 3-copy cards cover reliably

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: two Forbidden cards run (copies 1, legal 0); Extra Deck 17 exceeds the OCG maximum of 15; Main 53 within 40-60; 0 side cards; Archetype-core P(>=1) = 0.8251 and searcher P(>=1) = 0.903 from hypergeometric draws
• Observed: Usage stats: Dragonmaid core cards (Parlor, Tinkhec, Lorpar, Changeover) appear in 50-88% of archetype lists
• Inferred: Starter and brick estimates from card text and draw odds; Interaction and recovery quality from card text; Going-first and going-second plans
• Provisional: Meta Power and Matchup coverage (no 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 match record are absent No win-rate telemetry: going-first/second, matchup, brick and OTK rates are Inferred or Unknown No side deck: post-side plan cannot be assessed Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
