Greed Deck #762395 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Sky Striker Ace link monsters (Zero, Kagari, Raye/Roze line) closing through Sky Striker Mobilize / Mecha-driven board and Extra Deck link summons; Greed/Mulcharmy card-advantage grind into a stalled board
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Sky Striker starter (Linkage, Mecha - Widow Anchor, Engage) and convert into Sky Striker Ace link summons while Solemn/Ash/Droll cover the most common interruptions
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the 6-card hand's 11 hand traps (Ash, Droll, Ghost Ogre, Ghost Belle, Infinite Impermanence, Solemn) to stop the opponent's first summon, then rebuild through Mulcharmy draw and Pot effects
• Recovery: Recur Sky Striker Spells from the GY with Camellia, Shizuku and Zero, and use Raye/Roze GY effects to re-enter Aces
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so no post-side plan can be evaluated

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a Sky Striker starter: the 14-copy archetype core has about a 78% chance of at least one card in a 5-card opening hand (hypergeometric, Inferred), and several starters provide redundancy. It converts that opening into Link pressure through the Sky Striker Ace monsters, but no recorded boards exist, so the ceiling and median are text-only estimates. Interruption resilience is the strongest part of the system, because 11 hand traps and multiple negates cover the common interruptions. The score is held down by 66 off-archetype copies (Greed, Mulcharmy, Branded, Ecclesia, generic staples) that dilute consistency and create brick risk, and by an empty side deck. Popularity and archetype usage were not credited, and card scores were not averaged; the score reflects the system only. Because three cards exceed their TCG copy limits, the deck is Illegal, so the final score is capped and the evaluation is structural only.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 55, Going First ≈ 58, Going Second ≈ 56, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 48. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-4); engine_conflicts (-4). Final formula: Theoretical 0.80*Structural(55) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(48) + modifiers(-8) = 46; capped at 35 because legality status is Illegal (structural-only, no normal Final Contextual score). Meta provisional.

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

• Large archetype core (14 copies) gives a high chance of a live starter in the opening hand
• 11 hand traps and multiple negates cover common interruptions
• Card draw density (Pot of Desires, Pot of Sloth, Upstart Goblin, Mulcharmy) supports resource grind

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy counts on three Semi-Limited cards
• 66 off-archetype copies create brick and conflict risk
• Empty side deck: no post-side plan
• No recorded combos, so ceiling and median are text-only estimates

Critical choke points

• Sky Striker Mobilize - Engage! and the Sky Striker starters are the main entry point; losing them to a single hand trap or negate removes most of the line
• Extra Deck link summons depend on a Sky Striker Ace monster already on the field

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 sizes against TCG size rules; Three over-limit cards (Ash Blossom, The Fallen & The Virtuous, Sky Striker Mobilize - Engage!) with legal_copies 2; Limited and Semi-Limited statuses for listed cards; Card text for all listed cards from the evidence pack; Empty side deck (0 cards)
• Observed: Usage stats: Mulcharmy Fuwalos, Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird at 76% inclusion within the archetype
• Inferred: At least one starter in a 5-card opening ≈ 0.78 for the core group (hypergeometric); Hand-trap coverage ≈ 0.76 in a 6-card going-second hand; Going-first and going-second estimates from card text; Off-archetype copies create brick risk
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit (D13) and tournament reliability
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent No win-rate telemetry for going-first/second, matchups, or brick rates Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample No side deck registered
