Infernoid Deck #760229 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 39/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 60 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion or Link Summon a large Infernoid board member (Infernoid Tierra, Infernoid Evil, Infernoid Flood) and attack through the field; Infernoid Attondel and Infernoid Sjette are the main beaters; Infernoid Onuncu and Infernoid Devyaty as high-ATK Special Summon bodies that can destroy opposing Spells and Traps
• Turn 1 (going first): Opening hand starter via Infernoid Decatron or Infernoid Pirmais (banish-from-hand Special Summon), then extend into Void Reignition or Void Breach to recover and build toward a Fusion or Link Summon
• Turn 2 (going second): Rely on Forbidden Droplet or Super Duper Polymerization to clear an opposing monster, then Special Summon an Infernoid body; no hand traps are present to interrupt the opponent's first play
• Recovery: Void Reignition and Void Unleashing recover hand, and banished Infernoid monsters can be re-used via Void Breach
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs no Side Deck (side_count 0), so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

This list is Illegal in OCG: Monster Gate and Reasoning are each run three times against a limit of one, and Reprodocus, a Forbidden card, sits in the Extra Deck, so the score is capped and reported as structural-only. The engine is reasonably accessible: 17 archetype-core copies give about 0.82 chance of at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred), and Infernoid Decatron and Pirmais provide banish-from-hand Special Summon starts. The deck converts into large Fusion and Link boards (Tierra, Evil, Flood, Attondel), but no recorded boards exist, so the ceiling and median are text-only inferences. It has no hand traps and no Side Deck, which weakens going-second play and post-side adaptation. The score comes from consistency, closing power and interaction on the system, not from Infernoid's popularity or from averaging card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 52, Going Second ≈ 42, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: Illegal list cap (-12). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional); Illegal list capped by modifier

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.82 · 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

• Core Infernoid engine accessible in opening hands (about 0.82 for at least one core card in 5)
• Multiple banish-from-hand starters give several entry points
• Large attack-capable Fusion and Link bosses for closing power

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: over-limit Monster Gate and Reasoning, and a Forbidden Extra Deck card
• No hand traps and no Side Deck
• Only 46.7% exact-name archetype purity, so many off-archetype brick risks

Critical choke points

• Reprodocus must leave the Extra Deck before the list is legal
• Starter success depends on banish-from-hand Special Summons with Level or Rank limits

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality violations: Reprodocus Forbidden, Monster Gate and Reasoning over limit; Main 60 / Extra 15 / Side 0 within OCG size rules; Archetype core group of 17 copies and 0.82 at-least-one hand-5 probability; Extra Deck is 4 Fusion and 11 Link
• Inferred: Starter reliability and brick risk estimates; Going-second weakness from no hand traps and no side; Closing power from listed ATK values
• Provisional: Meta and matchup fit (no dated meta sample or tournament data)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry in YGOVN; going-first and going-second splits are Inferred Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample No Side Deck, so no post-side evidence
