Greed Deck #759748 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 53/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 5 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro beatdown from Junk Warrior, Colossal Fighter, Nitro Warrior, Turbo Warrior or Flamvell Uruquizas, built on Junk Synchron, Turbo Synchron and Nitro Synchron tuners.; Warrior-type recursion through The Warrior Returning Alive, Junk Synchron's Graveyard revive and Tasuke Knight, with Shard of Greed and Nitro Synchron card draw for grind.
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon Speed Warrior or Junk Synchron on T1, then Synchro Summon from the tuner and non-tuner pair if a second live monster is in hand; hold Mystical Space Typhoon or Synchro Blast Wave for the first threat.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Synchro Deflector, Kunai with Chain or Turbo Synchron's attack redirect to stop the opponent's first board, then Synchro Summon a boss through the surviving tuner.
• Recovery: Send monsters to the Graveyard for Warrior Returning Alive, Junk Synchron's Level 2-or-lower revive, Limiter Overload's Speed Warrior summon and Tasuke Knight's once-per-duel summon.
• After siding: Not applicable: Master Duel has no side deck in this export (side_count 0).

Why it scores here

The deck opens a live engine reasonably often: seven tuners (Junk, Turbo and Nitro Synchron) across 22 monsters give roughly a 64% chance of at least one tuner in a 5-card opening hand and about 71% in a 6-card hand (Inferred, hypergeometric). Its conversion is judged from card text and structure only, because no recorded boards exist, so the ceiling and median are both moderate and kept separate. Interaction (three Mystical Space Typhoon, two Synchro Blast Wave, two Synchro Deflector, two Kunai with Chain) and Graveyard recursion (The Warrior Returning Alive, Junk Synchron, Tasuke Knight, Limiter Overload) carry the score for resilience and grind. Popularity or archetype share earned no points, no card scores were averaged, and Meta Power stays provisional with no tournament or win-rate data.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary, Toolbox secondary (approx. 80/20). Structural ≈ 56, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 52. Modifiers: tuner_dependency (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional); Structural 55.6 -> 0.80*55.6 + 0.20*52 = 54.8, then modifier -2 -> 53

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.64 · 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

• Seven tuners give accessible Synchro Summons for the five Extra monsters.
• Graveyard recursion (The Warrior Returning Alive, Junk Synchron, Tasuke Knight, Limiter Overload) gives interruption resilience.
• Dense Spell/Trap interaction, including three Mystical Space Typhoon, two Synchro Deflector and two Synchro Blast Wave.
• Compact 40-card main with a coherent Warrior core.

Weaknesses

• No hand traps or floodgates, so the going-second plan depends on sorcery-speed removal and one-card negations.
• Many level-0 Spell/Trap cards dilute the monster count.
• Greed label is weakly supported: 2 Greed-named copies, and the usage stats are for a different archetype (Nephthys).
• No recorded boards, so the median output is unknown.

Critical choke points

• Tuner count: most Synchro lines need Junk, Turbo or Nitro Synchron in hand or Graveyard.
• Junk Synchron's revive requires a Level 2 or lower monster in the Graveyard, which the deck cannot guarantee early.

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Legal, main 40, extra 5, side 0 under master-duel size rules.; Card counts, types, levels and ATK/DEF from the evidence cards list.; No restricted or banned cards (all Unlimited).
• Inferred: Opening-hand probabilities for tuners and starters (hypergeometric).; Interaction and recursion ratings from card text.; Ceiling and route redundancy from text, not from recorded boards.
• Provisional: Meta Power and matchup fit (no dated meta or tournament data).; Side deck adaptability (no side deck in Master Duel export).
• Data gaps: no combos supplied: combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent usage_statistics describe the Nephthys archetype, not Greed; core_present_pct=0 was not used for scoring no win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick/starter rates) Meta Power provisional without a dated metagame sample title is null in the deck export
