• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Azamina and Diabell boss monsters (Diabellstar the Black Witch, Diabellze the White Witch, Diabell Queen, Azamina Ilia Silvia, Azamina Mu Rcielago, Dark Magician of Destruction) built from White Forest searchers and Tuner starters, with Ash Blossom and Infinite Impermanence protecting the engine.; Synchro and Fusion bosses at 2800 to 3300 ATK (Guardian Chimera, Juraishin, Zalen, Snake-Eyes Vengeance Dragon, Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon) as end-board follow-up.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a searcher (Witch of the White Forest, Elzette, Silvy, Diabellstar) and a starter to reach a Tuner or Diabell line; hold Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Droll or Impermanence for the opponent's first activation.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the 6-card hand (about 88% to hold at least one hand trap) to negate the opponent's starter, then rebuild through the searchers into a Synchro or Fusion boss.
• Recovery: Recover from a broken line through Diabellstar and Filia Diabell recursion, the Diabell Curse search, and the searcher chain (Witch, Elzette, Silvy, Tales of the White Forest).
• After siding: No side deck is registered (side 0). Master Duel has no post-side play, so the plan relies on the main deck only.

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens an engine: it runs 16 searcher-text cards and a 3-copy starter set, so P(at least one searcher in an opening 5) is about 0.94 (Inferred). It converts that access into Diabell and Azamina boss monsters through Synchro and Fusion routes, with several 2500-3300 ATK bosses in the Extra Deck. Its interaction is dense (11 hand traps, 12 negation texts, 8 removal texts), which lets the deck hold its line through disruption and carry a strong going-second game. Structural power is 67 on a meta-neutral Midrange profile, with D13 dropped and the weights renormalized. Tournament reliability is 60, held down by the lack of a side deck and by the many dead-on-going-first hand traps. The score comes from consistency, interaction and recovery on the system, not from the Azamina archetype's popularity and not from averaging individual card scores. The score is also reduced by -3 for banlist exposure (three Limited cards and one Semi-Limited card at legal cap) and for the Witch of the White Forest restriction on Special Summoning DARK Extra Deck monsters, which conflicts with several DARK bosses in the Extra Deck.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange (D13 dropped, weights renormalized to a sum of 95). Structural ≈ 67, Going First ≈ 66, Going Second ≈ 70, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 60. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-1); engine conflict (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional; Structural is meta-neutral with D13 dropped) = 0.80*67.1 + 0.20*60 - 3 = 62.7, rounded to 63

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.94 · 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 (16 searcher-text cards) gives high engine access on the first turns.
• Dense interaction (11 hand traps, 12 negation texts) covers both going-first and going-second scenarios.
• Several 2500-3300 ATK bosses across the Extra Deck give closing pressure.
• Recursion through Diabellstar, Filia Diabell and Curse of Diabell regenerates resources.

Weaknesses

• Low exact-name Azamina purity (7.3%); the deck mixes White Forest, Diabell and generic staples.
• Witch of the White Forest conflicts with the DARK Extra Deck bosses.
• No side deck and no post-side plan.
• Hand traps can be dead when going first with no opponent activation.

Critical choke points

• Witch of the White Forest, the main searcher for the White Forest chain, is needed for most lines.
• Diabellstar the Black Witch, the main Diabell starter, appears only 3 copies in a 40-card main (34% in opening 5).
• WANTED: Seeker of Sinful Spoils and the Sinful Spoils chain depend on a single Limited copy.

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal: 40 main, 15 extra, 0 side; no violations; legal copy counts for Maxx C, Crossout Designator, WANTED (Limited 1) and Droll & Lock Bird (Semi-Limited 2).; Card texts and stats for Witch of the White Forest, Diabellstar the Black Witch and Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring.; Guide snippet describes the Azamina and Diabell family as a mercenary support package with omni-negate and endboard pressure.
• Observed: Copy histogram (15 singles, 2 doubles, 7 triples) and Extra Deck breakdown (8 Synchro, 6 Fusion, 1 Link).; Archetype purity: 4 exact-name Azamina copies, 51 off-archetype.
• Inferred: P(at least one searcher in opening 5) = 0.94 and P(at least one hand trap in going-second 6) = 0.88.; Hand-trap dead-hand rate when going first.; Structural scores for consistency, interaction and closing power.
• Provisional: Meta Power (null) and format fit (D13 dropped from structural).; Post-side plan (no side deck in Master Duel).
• 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 absent no win-rate, starter-rate or brick-rate telemetry in YGOVN usage_statistics in_this_deck flags appear wrong for Extra Deck cards: Poplar (5800323), Azamina Mu Rcielago (73391962), Azamina Ilia Silvia (46396218) and others are listed as missing_core although they are in the Extra Deck cards list, so core_present_pct = 40 understates the list no side deck registered; Master Duel has no post-side play so D12 is Provisional Meta Power is Provisional: no dated metagame sample supplied
