Kuriboh Deck #759035 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 20/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 50 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion Summon large Elemental HERO boss monsters (Shining Neos Wingman 3100 ATK, Elemental HERO Sunrise, Great Tornado) off Polymerization-family spells and HERO searchers; Primite Imperial Dragon (2600 ATK) and Aleister/Invoked fusion lines as alternate boss routes
• Turn 1 (going first): Search and Polymerization/Miracle Fusion into an Elemental HERO boss, supported by Ash Blossom and Infinite Impermanence protection (Inferred from card text)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Darkuriboh, Kuriboh - Multiply!, Primite Scream) to stop the opponent's starter, then a Fusion boss; the list runs 6 hand traps (Inferred)
• Recovery: Searchers in the deck (23 searcher-text cards) to rebuild from the Deck; no combo data to confirm the recovery line
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no Side Deck (0 cards), so no post-side plan exists

Why it scores here

This list is Illegal under the OCG banlist: it runs 3 Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring against a limit of 2, and includes Called by the Grave and Cross-Sheep, both Forbidden. The structural score is therefore theoretical only and is capped. Scoring the system rather than the cards: the deck opens a Fusion plan through HERO searchers and Polymerization-family spells, which has about a 96% chance of at least one searcher in the opening 5 (Inferred), and its six hand traps give it a plausible going-second answer. Its weaknesses are structural: 62 of 68 copies are off-archetype (exact-name purity 4.6%), and the Kuriboh, Primite, Invoked, Aleister and Neo-Spacian lines compete for the same hand slots. There are no recorded boards and no tournament data, so the median output is unmeasured. Popularity and usage statistics did not earn points, and no card scores were averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary, Toolbox secondary (disclosed, not blended numerically). Structural ≈ 47, Going First ≈ 45, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); engine conflicts (-4); illegal-deck cap (0). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural(46.6) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(35) = 44.3; after modifiers (−12) = 32.3; Illegal-deck cap applied → 20 (theoretical/structural-only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.28 · 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 text (23 cards) gives high access to Fusion routes
• Six hand traps give a going-second answer
• Fusion boss ceiling reaches 3100 ATK (Shining Neos Wingman)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: over copy limit on Ash Blossom and two Forbidden cards
• Very low archetype purity (4.6%) with many engine conflicts
• No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptability
• No combo or tournament data to confirm conversion

Critical choke points

• Single-copy Polymerization-family spells are the main Fusion access; losing them to hand traps or disruption breaks the Fusion plan (Inferred)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status and three violations (ban list check); Main 50, Extra 15, Side 0 counts; Composition counts (type, archetype purity 4.6%, 23 searcher text, 6 hand traps)
• Inferred: Starter and hand-trap draw odds (hypergeometric); Consistency, brick, and interaction ratings from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power (null, no dated sample); D13 matchup fit (no tournament data)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link; archetype meta-share and match record absent No win-rate telemetry in YGOVN; going-first/second, matchup, brick and starter rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
