Egyptian God Deck #758134 — 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 54 / Extra 16 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 5 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion or Extra Deck boss (Dark Magician of Destruction, Dracotail Arthalion, Dracotail Gulamel, Amulet Dragon) reached through Dracotail and Dark Magician searchers, then pressured with 2800 to 3000 ATK monsters; Slifer the Sky Dragon Normal Summon with hand-size ATK, backed by The Revived Sky God and Thunderforce Attack
• Turn 1 (going first): Opening searcher (Dracotail Lukias, Gadget Trio, Shining Sarcophagus) into Fusion starter (Ketu Dracotail or Rahu Dracotail), while holding Ash Blossom and Droll to protect the first engine step
• Turn 2 (going second): Six-card hand with 14 hand traps (Ash Blossom, Droll, Effect Veiler, Infinite Impermanence, Evenly Matched) to negate the opponent's first extender, then rebuild a board from Shining Sarcophagus and Future Silence
• Recovery: Mulcharmy Fuwalos draw effects and Revived Sky God recursion, with Monster Reborn as a single-copy revival
• After siding: Not assessable: the Side Deck is empty, so there is no post-side plan in the supplied list

Why it scores here

The list is Illegal under OCG rules: the Extra Deck holds 16 cards against a limit of 15, Ash Blossom and Droll exceed their copy limits, and Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon is Forbidden and present. Under the illegal-list rule, the final score is capped low and the evaluation is structural only. The structural read comes from the system: a searcher-dense Main Deck (P(at least one searcher in an opening 5) is about 0.82) and a 14-card hand-trap suite give strong going-second interaction and an end-board of Fusion bosses with 2800 to 3000 ATK. Consistency is held back by the archetype core, which is missing 6 of its 8 usual-core cards, and by a 12.9% exact-archetype purity spread across Dracotail, Dark Magician, Shining Sarcophagus, Gadget and Egyptian God pieces. The deck has no side deck and no recorded boards, so the combo ceiling and floor are text-only inferences. Archetype popularity earned no points, and card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: 0.8 Midrange + 0.2 Toolbox (disclosed; hybrid per rubric Step 5). Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 60, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-8); engine_conflicts (-4). Final formula: Illegal list: structural-only estimate (0.80*52 + 0.20*40 = 49.6, then modifiers -12 gives 37.6) is capped to 25 under the illegal-list rule. Meta provisional (null).

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.26 · 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 searcher and hand-trap suite gives reliable interaction on the opponent's turn
• Extra Deck bosses reach 2800 to 3000 ATK with multiple Fusion routes
• Dark Magician and Dracotail effects give recovery through the graveyard

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Extra Deck over size, copy-limit breaches and a Forbidden card
• Empty Side Deck, so no post-side adjustment is possible
• Low exact-archetype purity; several sub-archetypes compete for the same slots
• Heavy reliance on Fusion starters (Ketu, Rahu, Monster Reborn) that are Limited and single-copy

Critical choke points

• Fusion starter access: Ketu Dracotail and Rahu Dracotail are single copies, and Monster Reborn is one copy
• Ash Blossom and Droll over-limit lines mean the deck cannot be built legally as listed

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Extra Deck 16 over cap 15; copy-limit breaches for Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird and Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon (Forbidden); Composition: 54 Main, 16 Extra, 0 Side; 12.9% exact-archetype purity; Usage: Ash Blossom at 80% inclusion; 2 of 8 core cards present
• Inferred: P(at least one searcher in opening 5) ≈ 0.82; Going-second hand-trap density supports interaction on the opponent's first extender; Consistency held down by archetype core coverage of 40% in opening 5
• Provisional: Matchup fit and meta share (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 record are absent No win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick and starter rates) Side Deck is empty Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample
