Kaiju Deck #760236 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 25/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Regenesis 2500 ATK/DEF monster engine feeding Extra Deck bosses (Psychic End Punisher, Tri-Brigade Arms Bucephalus II, Super Starslayer TY-PHON); Synchro and Link board pressure from Extra Deck monsters after Special Summon chains
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a 2500-ATK/DEF monster or Regenesis starter, search via Regenesis or Regenesis Archfiend/Warrior effects, then build toward an Extra Deck summon. Lines are not verified against recorded boards.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Maxx C, Droll and Lock Bird, PSY-Framegear Gamma and Dragon's Mind to interact, then rebuild through Regenesis recursion. Hand-trap density is only 3 cards, so this line is Inferred.
• Recovery: Regenesis Birth, Regenesis Code and Regenesis Sage recycle monsters from the GY. Recovery depends on a 2500 ATK/DEF monster being on the field, which is a single point of failure.
• After siding: Not evaluable. The deck has no side deck (0 cards), so there is no post-side plan.

Why it scores here

Scored on the deck as a system, not as an average of card scores, and capped low because the list is illegal: Triple Tactics Talent (2 copies) and Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon (1 copy) are Forbidden in OCG. The Regenesis core gives the deck a reasonably live starter density: the 2500 ATK/DEF enablers and recursion cards are run at three copies, with about a 25% chance of at least one starter in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred). The Extra Deck bosses supply closing power, but the converting engine is narrow and rests on a single 2500 ATK/DEF on-field condition. Interaction is broad on paper (13 negation-text and 31 removal-text cards), but only 3 hand traps are fixed and the deck has no side deck. Heat Wave also restricts the deck's own Effect Monsters. Popularity and archetype label did not earn points: the deck is tagged Kaiju yet runs no Kaiju card, and no recorded boards, guides or tournament results exist.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 44, Going First ≈ 42, Going Second ≈ 38, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 30. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-8); engine_conflicts (-2); no_side_deck (-2). Final formula: Illegal deck: structural 44 and tournament reliability 30 give 0.80*44 + 0.20*30 = 41.2, then context modifiers -12 gives 29, capped to 25 because the deck is Illegal (theoretical/structural-only; not a normal Final score)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.25 · 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

• Regenesis enablers and recursion cards run at three copies, giving the engine real redundancy
• Extra Deck bosses with 3000 to 3500 ATK provide closing power
• Broad removal and negation text across Spells, Traps and monsters

Weaknesses

• Illegal in OCG: two Forbidden cards (Triple Tactics Talent x2, Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon x1)
• Archetype label Kaiju does not match the list: no Kaiju cards, so the deck has no coherent archetype
• Heat Wave restricts its own Effect Monsters
• No side deck

Critical choke points

• Regenesis engine requires a 2500 ATK/DEF monster on the field for most enablers and recursion
• Only 3 fixed hand traps for the going-second interruption plan

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Deck is Illegal: Triple Tactics Talent (2 copies) and Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon (1 copy) are Forbidden in OCG; Main 55 and Extra 15 are within OCG size rules; side deck is 0 cards; Hypergeometric draw probabilities from the main deck (0.2529 for a 3-copy card in a 5-card hand); Extra Deck bosses have printed ATK of 3000 to 3500
• Inferred: Regenesis starter access and brick rate; Going-second interaction density from text; Interruption resilience from hand traps and recursion
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Format fit and matchup coverage
• Data gaps: Illegal list: copy-limit violations prevent a normal Final score No combos supplied: 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/second and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown Archetype tagged Kaiju but no Kaiju cards present (archetype label may be wrong) No side deck: post-side plan cannot be evaluated Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample
