Rokket Deck #762215 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 56/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 43 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Link and Synchro boss monsters (Borrelend Dragon ATK 3500, Borreload Savage Dragon, Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon, Baronne de Fleur) built from the Rokket/Borrel DARK Dragon core; Fusion and Fallen/Albion branded pressure, plus Ecclesia and Black Rose Dragon as alternative boards
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a core Rokket starter (Rokket Loader, Rokket Tracer, or Quick Launch), search or recur a second Rokket, and link into Borrelend or Trisborrel while holding Ash Blossom and Imperm-style hand traps for the opponent's first activation
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the six-card hand's hand traps (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Droll & Lock Bird, Maxx C, Dominus Impulse) to blank the opponent's board, then rebuild through Absorouter Dragon and Borrel Regenerator from the GY
• Recovery: Recover from the GY with Absorouter Dragon, Borrel Regenerator, Rokket Tracer and Rokket Detonator, and rebuild Link monsters from the Extra Deck
• After siding: Not applicable: Master Duel has no side deck and the export lists side_count 0; post-side adaptation is not a scoring axis here

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens its Rokket core: the archetype core group is about 99% likely to show at least one card in a 5-card opening hand, and searcher text is about 71% likely, so a live starter is common on the first turn. It converts that starter into Link and Synchro boards through Rokket recursion and a 15-card Extra Deck with several 3000-plus ATK bosses, but the conversion is text-only because no recorded boards exist. Its strongest area is interaction: nine hand traps and several negation and removal effects make the deck hard to play through when going second, and the hand-trap group is about 78% likely to show one in a 6-card hand. It scores down for a split engine across roughly six sub-archetypes (exact Rokket purity is only 24%), which raises brick risk and engine conflicts, and for having no sideboard or tournament data. The score comes from consistency, median output, and interaction measured on the whole system; popularity did not earn points, and card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 61.4, Going First ≈ 67, Going Second ≈ 64, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 56. Modifiers: engine conflicts (-4). Final formula: Meta-neutral: D13 dropped from the Midrange profile and the rest renormalized (sum 5830/95 = 61.4). Final = 0.80*61.4 + 0.20*56 + modifiers (-4) = 56.3, rounded to 56.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.99 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.01 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Archetype core is almost always accessible in the opening hand
• Layered interaction: nine hand traps plus negation and removal text
• Multiple 3000-plus ATK bosses in the Extra Deck with recursion from the GY

Weaknesses

• Split engine across about six sub-archetypes (exact purity 24%)
• High off-archetype dilution (44 copies)
• No recorded boards, so combo ceiling and median are text-only inferences

Critical choke points

• Rokket starter (Loader, Tracer, Quick Launch) must be live on turn 1 for the Link line
• Borrelend Dragon and Borreload Savage require specific DARK Dragon and Link materials that are not guaranteed

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: 43 main, 15 extra, 0 side, Legal under master-duel size rules; Copy limits: Maxx C 1/1, Droll & Lock Bird 2/2, The Fallen & The Virtuous 2/2 (Semi-Limited); Usage stats: Rokket core present 15 of 23 (65.2%)
• Inferred: Archetype core and searcher hypergeometric estimates; Interaction density and going-second hand-trap estimate; Closing-power read from Extra Deck ATK values and text
• Provisional: Meta Power (null, no dated meta sample); Matchup and format fit (D13, no tournament link)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: 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/second and matchup rates are unknown Master Duel has no side deck, so D12 is a neutral placeholder rather than a measured adaptability score Meta Power is provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
