Frog Deck #762010 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 66/100 (±6 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Level-2 chain from hand into Spright Elf / Spright Sprind links and Gigantic Spright Xyz (ATK-doubling clause), then Link/Xyz beats; Pitknight and S:P Little Knight link beats; Sky Cavalry Centaurea as a second Xyz body
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Level-2 monster (Swap Frog, Spright Jet, Nimble Beaver or Spright Blue), use its hand-summon condition and search a Spright, then extend to a Link-2 or Xyz
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold hand traps (Infinite Impermanence, Ash Blossom, Maxx "C", Dominus Impulse) and use Spright Carrot / Spright Red negations, then rebuild from the Level-2 chain
• Recovery: Nimble Angler sent to GY summons up to two Level-3-or-lower Nimble monsters; Ronintoadin revives from GY by banishing a Frog; Spright searchers rebuild the hand
• After siding: No side deck (side count 0); no post-side plan is available in the evidence

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a functional Level-2 chain: 21 of its 25 main-deck monsters are Level 2, so roughly 98% of opening hands of five contain at least one of them (Inferred hypergeometric). Its strength as a system is the layering of seven hand traps and about fifteen negation-text cards on top of that chain, which keeps the going-second hand functional and gives it a credible route through disruption. The conversion into Link and Xyz boards is plausible from card text but unmeasured, because no recorded boards exist, so the ceiling and median are text-only inferences. The 'Frog' label earns little: only four cards are named Frog and the exact-name purity is 7.3%, so the engine is mostly Spright and Nimble, and no archetype usage-core card is present. Popularity and meta share did not earn points, no tournament data exists, and the score was built from the system dimensions rather than by averaging card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange (D13 dropped and remaining weights renormalized over 95 because no meta sample exists). Structural ≈ 70, Going First ≈ 77, Going Second ≈ 72, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 66. Modifiers: Archetype label vs engine (-2); Banlist exposure (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional; Structural ≈ 69.6 before rounding)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.98 · 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

• Near-certain Level-2 starter access in both going-first and going-second hands
• Seven hand traps plus about fifteen negation-text cards give layered interaction
• Compact main deck (21 distinct cards) with a full, flexible Extra Deck of Link and Xyz options

Weaknesses

• No recorded boards, so the combo ceiling and median cannot be verified
• Thin true Frog core: the archetype label overstates the engine
• No side deck and no post-side plan

Critical choke points

• Spright Starter's LP cost and its once-per-turn summon restriction
• Conditional Triple Tactics Talent (needs an opponent's monster effect during your Main Phase)
• One-copy Divine Arsenal depends on a conditional alternate route

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal under BanMasterDuel; Maxx "C" and Crossout Designator are Limited at 1 copy each and run at 1 copy each; Composition: 40 main, 15 extra, 0 side; 21 Level-2 main-deck monsters; 7 hand traps; 7 Link and 8 Xyz in the Extra Deck
• Inferred: P(≥1 Level-2 starter) ≈ 0.98 (5-card hand) and ≈ 0.99 (6-card hand); P(≥1 hand trap in 6-card hand) ≈ 0.71; Combo ceiling and interaction quality read from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup and format fit (no tournament link)
• 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 no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN (going-first/second, matchup, game-level, brick/starter/OTK rates) — those signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied no side deck, so post-side adaptability cannot be assessed
