Blitzclique Deck #761794 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 25/100 (±10 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox
• Format: tcg

Legality

Main 57 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Blitzclique Thunder monsters chain-destroy the opponent's board through their own effects, then Synchro, Fusion and Albaz Dragon bodies close the game; Fydraulis Harmonia and Mulcharmy card advantage grinds the opponent out of resources over a long game
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Thunder starter (Surge, Crackle, Grain or Whisker Blitzclique) and use its hand-revealed destruction to clear one blocker, then Special Summon a second Thunder monster and extend into a Synchro or Fusion Summon
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the six-card hand's Ash Blossom, Droll and Nibiru to answer the opponent's first summons, then rebuild the board through Blitzclique Alternator and Breakaway recursion
• Recovery: Blitzclique - Steppleader and Grain Blitzclique return Thunder monsters from the GY to hand, and Mulcharmy draws refill the hand after a board wipe
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no side deck (side_count 0), so no post-side plan exists

Why it scores here

This is an Illegal list: The Fallen & The Virtuous runs 3 copies against a Semi-Limited limit of 2, so the rubric caps the final score low and the structural read is theoretical only. Structurally the deck is coherent: 20 exact-name Blitzclique cards, 100% inclusion for the core Thunder starters, and a 0.9995 hypergeometric chance of at least one archetype card in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred), which keeps engine access high. The interaction suite (Ash Blossom, Droll and Lock Bird, Nibiru, Solemn Warning, Solemn Judgment, Blitzclique Return Stroke) gives a dense end-board answer set, but its Limited and Semi-Limited copy counts cap how much of it a legal build could run. No recorded boards, tournament link or guides exist, so the floor, median and ceiling are text-only inferences and are not separated by real data. The score was built from the system (consistency, median output and interaction together), not from averaging the individual card scores, and popularity in usage statistics was not credited as power.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 52, Going Second ≈ 48, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-8); illegal_cap (0). Final formula: Illegal cap applied: uncapped 0.80*Structural(52) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) + ContextModifiers(-8) ≈ 43, then capped to 25 because the deck is Illegal (Meta Power provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.24 · 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

• Redundant archetype starters: four Thunder monsters at 3 copies each, with 0.9995 chance of an archetype card in the opening hand
• Dense interaction: 6 hand traps, 12 negation-text cards and 33 removal-text cards cover openings and end-boards
• Recursion through Steppleader, Grain Blitzclique and Breakaway limits the cost of a disrupted turn

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: The Fallen & The Virtuous is over its Semi-Limited copy limit
• No side deck, so there is no post-side adaptation
• Low exact-name purity (27.8%): much of the Main Deck is off-archetype support, which dilutes the core engine
• No recorded combo data, so the floor and median output are unverified

Critical choke points

• The Thunder-monster chain-destruction starters: the loop depends on a Thunder monster being in hand and a card being destroyed by a Blitzclique effect
• Banlist exposure of Limited and Semi-Limited interaction (Solemn Judgment, Called by the Grave, Pot of Prosperity, S:P Little Knight): losing any one reduces the answer set

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal: The Fallen & The Virtuous runs 3 copies against a Semi-Limited limit of 2; Main 57 and Extra 15 are within the TCG size rules (40 to 60 and 0 to 15); the side deck is empty; Core inclusion: 100% for Surge, Whisker, Crackle and Grain Blitzclique; Extra Deck breakdown: 9 Synchro, 5 Fusion, 1 Link
• Observed: Usage statistics show the core Blitzclique cards at 100% inclusion across the archetype sample
• Inferred: Opening-hand access probabilities (0.9995 archetype core; 0.8959 searcher text; 0.2447 per 3-copy card); Engine resilience and recursion routes from card text; Interaction quality from negation and removal text
• Provisional: Meta Power is null: no dated metagame sample was supplied; Matchup and format fit (D13) lacks tournament or meta data
• Data gaps: no combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent no win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchup, brick or starter rates Meta Power is provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied no side deck, so side-deck adaptability cannot be measured
