Heroic Deck #762165 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 58/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Midrange, Fusion
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 60 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion Summon a 2500+ ATK HERO Fusion Monster (Elemental HERO Sunrise, Vision HERO Trinity, Elemental HERO Shining Neos Wingman, Contrast HERO Chaos) from the Extra Deck via Polymerization, Fusion Destiny, Miracle Fusion, or Super Polymerization, then attack through the opponent's board.; Vision HERO and Destiny HERO monsters (Destiny HERO - Malicious, Destiny HERO - Plasma, Vision HERO Vyon) that recur from the Deck and GY for repeated Fusion material and pressure.
• Turn 1 (going first): Opening A Hero Lives or Elemental HERO Stratos / Vision HERO Faris to search Polymerization or Fusion Destiny, fuse into a 2500+ ATK Fusion Monster, and hold Ash Blossom and Forbidden Droplet up as protection.
• Turn 2 (going second): Open hand traps (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Maxx C) to stop the opponent's first board, then rebuild through Mask Change / Masked HERO Furnace search into a Fusion Monster that overwhelms the board.
• Recovery: Recurring monsters from GY and Deck (Destiny HERO - Malicious, Vision HERO Increase, Vision HERO Vyon, Masked HERO Dusk Crow) and the Link monsters rebuild the Fusion engine after a clean removal or negation.
• After siding: None. The deck runs 0 side cards, so there is no post-side plan in the evidence; the side slots are unused.

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a Fusion starter: the archetype-core group has P(at least one in a 5-card opening hand) of about 0.96 and the searcher group about 0.82, so the Fusion enablers (Polymerization, Fusion Destiny, Miracle Fusion, Super Polymerization, Mask Change) are usually reachable on turn 1-2 (Inferred from hypergeometric estimates). Its ceiling is high because the Extra Deck carries several 2500-3100 ATK Fusion Monsters and the Fusion route has multiple starters that redundantly reach it. Interaction is real but not dominant: six hand traps and about ten negation or Droplet/Crown style effects give it resilience against one common disruption, and the triple-copy starters add route redundancy. The score comes from consistency, the Fusion ceiling, and interaction read on the system; no combo boards exist, so median and ceiling are text-only inferences. Archetype popularity earned no points and card scores were not averaged; the deck has no side plan and no tournament or win-rate data, so Meta Power stays provisional.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 62.7, Going First ≈ 68, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 53. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-2); no_side_plan (-2); engine conflicts (-1); redundant_starters (2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional) = 0.80*62.7 + 0.20*53 - 3 = 57.8 -> 58

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.96 · 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

• Triple-copy starters (A Hero Lives, Fusion Destiny, Destiny HERO - Malicious, Ash Blossom) give redundant openings.
• High-ATK Fusion ceiling (Trinity, Sunrise, Shining Neos Wingman, Chaos) that converts with few resources.
• Six hand traps plus Forbidden Droplet and Crown give layered interaction.

Weaknesses

• No side deck: the 15 side slots are unused, so there is no matchup adaptation.
• Several off-archetype cards dilute the Fusion engine.
• Core Link monsters (Infernal Devicer, Wonder Driver) are missing though they are in 100% of usage stats.

Critical choke points

• Polymerization (2 copies) plus Fusion Destiny / Miracle Fusion / Super Polymerization are the only Fusion enablers.
• Limited cards (Maxx C, Foolish Burial, Predaplant Verte Anaconda, Crossout Designator) reduce options if they are restricted further.

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: List is legal: 60 main, 15 extra, 0 side within master-duel size rules.; Restricted cards are within legal copy limits (Maxx C, Foolish Burial, Crossout Designator, Predaplant Verte Anaconda each 1 copy; Droll & Lock Bird 2; Super Polymerization 1 of 2).; Core usage stats: archetype core present 16 of 25 (64%); 9 usage-core cards missing.
• Inferred: Opening-hand consistency from hypergeometric estimates (archetype core 0.96; searcher 0.82).; Combo ceiling and floor are text-only inferences because no recorded boards exist.; Interaction density and going-second answers from card text and hand-trap probabilities.
• Provisional: Meta Power is null; matchup and format fit (D13) are provisional without a dated meta sample.; Tournament reliability depends on unmeasured post-interruption stability.
• 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 Side deck is empty, so post-side (D12) cannot be measured
