Rescue-ACE Deck #759873 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 57 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Rescue-ACE large Link and Fusion-free beaters (Rescue-ACE Turbulence 3000, Rescue-ACE Arbitrator 3000 Link-4, Rescue-ACE Preventer 2800, Rescue-ACE Fire Engine 2500) recovered through Rescue-ACE Hydrant and RESCUE!/ALERT! recursion.; Diabellstar the Black Witch (2500) and Promethean Princess (2700 Link-3) as additional beaters once the Rescue-ACE board is established.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Rescue-ACE searcher (Rescue-ACE Air Lifter or Impulse), use EMERGENCY! and ALERT! to put a Rescue-ACE monster on the field, then Link Summon Rescue-ACE Arbitrator or Promethean Princess; keep Ash Blossom and Droll & Lock Bird up for the opponent's first interaction.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the six-card hand to hold Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit, Nibiru or Maxx C as hand traps against the opponent's first summon or search, then rebuild the Rescue-ACE board from the GY through RESCUE!.
• Recovery: Recover from the GY with RESCUE!, ALERT! (if Hydrant is on field), Rescue-ACE Hydrant and Rescue-ACE Preventer's banish cost, then rebuild Link Monsters from the Extra Deck.
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan; every matchup is played with the same 57-card Main Deck.

Why it scores here

The Rescue-ACE core is dense: 23 archetype copies give a 0.93 chance of at least one in a 5-card opening hand, and 14 searcher-text cards give 0.77, so the engine is usually reachable on turn 1 (Inferred). The deck can interrupt with 10 hand-trap cards, which the going-second hand reaches with a 0.70 chance, and it can finish with 3000-ATK Link and Main Deck beaters once a board is established. The score is capped low because the list is Illegal: Original Sinful Spoils - Snake-Eye and Azamina Ilia Silvia are Forbidden in OCG and are run once each, so the structural read is theoretical only. No combo boards, tournament link or Side Deck exist, so the combo and matchup dimensions rest on text inference and are scored with low confidence. The score comes from consistency, interaction and closing power on the system, not from Rescue-ACE's archetype popularity or from averaging the individual card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 58, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: illegal_list_cap (-27). Final formula: Illegal cap: normal formula 0.80*Structural(58) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(50) = 57 is replaced by a capped 30 (theoretical/structural only; Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.93 · 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 Rescue-ACE core: 23 copies, 0.93 chance of at least one in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred)
• Layered interaction: 10 hand traps plus Ash Blossom x2, Red Reboot, Droll, Dimensional Barrier, Lightning Storm (Verified card text, Inferred effect)
• Strong end-board: 3000-ATK Turbulence and Arbitrator, 2800-ATK Preventer, 2500-ATK Fire Engine (Verified card stats)
• Multiple recursion routes from the GY through RESCUE!, ALERT!, Hydrant and Preventer (Inferred)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Original Sinful Spoils - Snake-Eye and Azamina Ilia Silvia are Forbidden (Verified banlist)
• No Side Deck: post-side adaptability is zero (Verified count)
• Low compactness: 57 Main Deck cards with 27 level-0 spells/traps and 17 tech slots (Inferred)
• Only 30.6% exact-name Rescue-ACE purity, with 50 off-archetype copies (Verified count)

Critical choke points

• Rescue-ACE Hydrant gates ALERT! and the RESCUE! and Arbitrator lines; if the opponent answers it, several Quick-Play routes stop (Inferred)
• Removing the two Forbidden cards also removes the Snake-Eye and Azamina/Sinful Spoils engine, so supporting cards such as Deception of the Sinful Spoils, The Hallowed Azamina and WANTED become dead (Inferred)
