Odion Deck #759393 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 56/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Control
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Midrange
• Format: master-duel

Legality

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

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra Deck boss beatdown (Bystial Dis Pater 3500, Swordsoul Supreme Sovereign - Chengying 3000, Baronne de Fleur 3000) after Trap-based negation has cleared the opponent's board. No recorded combo confirms this line.; Divine Serpent Apophis and Anubis the Last Judge (3000) played from the Temple of the Kings / Apophis Trap engine.
• Turn 1 (going first): Set Traps, Normal Summon Labradorite Dragon or Primite Dragon Ether Beryl to start Primite and Apophis searches, and hold Solemn Judgment/Strike/Warning and Ash Blossom for the opponent's first summon.
• Turn 2 (going second): Open with hand traps (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Maxx C) and Dominus Impulse/Purge against the opponent's first summon, then rebuild from Trap-in-GY recursion.
• Recovery: Trap-in-GY recursion: Man with the Mark, Treasures of the Kings and Solemn Accusation search Temple/Apophis/Dominus pieces; Anubis the Last Judge becomes summonable from the GY once 3 Temple/Trap names are present.
• After siding: Not assessable: the deck runs no side deck (side_count 0), so there is no post-side plan to score.

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a Trap-centred control system, not as an average of its cards. Its 22 Trap cards, 24 negation-text cards and 16 searcher-text cards give a high chance of finding a searcher (P(at least one in a 5-card opening hand) ≈ 0.94) and strong interaction layering, which earn the most points in D7 and D6. Floor and median output earn little credit because the evidence contains zero recorded boards, so the combo dimensions rest on card-text inference only. Brick risk is high: many Trap effects need a Trap already in the GY or a specific Set card, which holds D2 and D14 down. Popularity did not earn points: the usage statistics (80% core presence) confirm the list is real and accessible, but they are not counted as power. The label 'Odion' does not match the list (no Odion-named card is present), and with no side deck and no tournament data, D12 and D13 are held low or neutral and the Meta Power is left null.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Control. Structural ≈ 59, Going First ≈ 63, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 55. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-2); engine_conflicts (-2); engine_compactness (2). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers, with D13 dropped and Control weights renormalised over 93. 0.80*59 + 0.20*55 = 58.2; modifiers -2 gives 56.

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, ≈0.94 to hit one in a 5-card opening hand)
• Layered interaction: 24 negation-text and 15 removal-text cards, with 7 hand traps
• Trap-in-GY recursion shared across Dominus, Apophis and Temple of the Kings
• Broad Extra Deck coverage across Link, Synchro, Fusion and Xyz with 3000+ ATK bosses
• Compact 40-card main with 3-copy core starters

Weaknesses

• Declared archetype 'Odion' has zero Odion-named cards; the engine is spread across five sub-archetypes
• No side deck, so no post-side adaptability
• 22 Traps create conditional draws and GY-dependent dead cards
• Zero recorded boards, so the combo ceiling and median cannot be verified
• Limited-copy Solemn and Maxx C dependence exposes the deck to banlist changes

Critical choke points

• Only one native Normal Monster (Labradorite Dragon); Primite and Apophis Normal-monster effects depend on it
• Anubis the Last Judge needs 3 Temple/Trap names in the GY before it can be Special Summoned

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal status: 40 Main / 15 Extra / 0 Side, all restricted cards within legal copy counts; Copy histogram (21 cards at 3 copies, 10 at 2 copies, 9 at 1 copy) reconciles to 40; Extra Deck breakdown: 5 Link, 4 Synchro, 3 Fusion, 3 Xyz; Banlist statuses: Limited for Maxx C, Pot of Extravagance and three Solemns; Semi-Limited for Treasures of the Kings; Usage statistics: 80% core presence (20 of 25 core cards)
• Observed: Usage statistics show Maxx C, Anubis the Last Judge, Treasures of the Kings and Apophis the Swamp Deity at 100% inclusion in the sample
• Inferred: Opening-hand probabilities (hypergeometric) for searcher and hand-trap groups; Interaction density and resilience from negation/removal text counts; Going-first and going-second plans from card text; Brick risk from GY-conditional Trap effects
• Provisional: Meta Power (null) and matchup fit (D13) because no dated metagame sample or tournament link is provided; Post-side adaptability (D12) because no side deck exists
• Data gaps: No recorded combos: combo floor, median and ceiling rest on card text only No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry for going-first/second, matchups or brick rates Declared archetype 'Odion' does not match the list's card names; archetype label should be checked No side deck: post-side adaptability is not assessable Meta Power is Provisional until a dated metagame sample is supplied
