Legality
Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).
Identity & game plan
- Win condition: Synchro boss (Draco Berserker of the Tenyi, Dragite, Chengying, Qixing Longyuan) swinging through a board cleared by Swordsoul/Tenyi board-breaking effects (Inferred from text); Swordsoul Grandmaster - Chixiao and Yazi as follow-up Synchro pressure (Inferred)
- Turn 1 (going first): Open a Swordsoul/Tenyi starter (Mo Ye, Emergence, Longyuan, Ashuna) and bridge to a Synchro boss, holding Ash Blossom or Droll as protection (Inferred)
- Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Ash, Maxx, Droll, Impermanence) negate or draw on the opponent's first summon, then a Tenyi or Swordsoul Synchro takes over the board (Inferred)
- Recovery: Recur Swordsoul and Wyrm monsters from the GY through Taia, Adhara and Tenyi banish effects to rebuild the Synchro engine (Inferred from text)
- After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan.
Why it scores here
The score is built on the deck as a system: a 97.6% chance of at least one Swordsoul/Tenyi core card in the opening five, dense interaction (11 hand traps, 10 negation texts, 18 removal texts), and several 2800–3000 ATK Synchro bosses. Those are the reasons it earns its points. Popularity did not earn points: the Swordsoul name appears in the usage stats, but usage confirms the list is real, not that it is strong. The list is Illegal, with three copies over the copy limit and a Forbidden card run twice, so it gets no normal Final score and is capped at 30. No combos were supplied, so the floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference. No side deck and no dated meta sample means post-side and matchup dimensions stay low and provisional. Individual card scores were not averaged into the deck score.
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | Engine Accessibility & Consistency | 68 | P(>=1 archetype-core card in opening 5) = 0.976; P(>=1 searcher-text card) = 0.742 (Inferred) |
| D2 | Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management | 55 | 11 hand traps and several Tenyi/Synchro-dependent cards are dead without a live engine; P(>=1 hand trap in going-second 6) = 0.876 (Inferred) |
| D3 | Combo Conversion & Ceiling | 55 | No parseable boards; ceiling is a text-only read of the Synchro/Wyrm chain into 2800-3000 ATK bosses (Inferred) |
| D4 | Combo Floor & Median Output | 45 | No combo median available; floor is a text-only inference that depends on Synchro access (Inferred) |
| D5 | Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy | 62 | Seven distinct Wyrm/Swordsoul/Tenyi starters give independent lines; recursion from GY via Taia/Adhara (Inferred) |
| D6 | Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind | 58 | GY recursion and Tenyi banish-to-add effects regenerate resources; no resource-signature data (Inferred) |
| D7 | End-Board & Interaction Quality | 68 | Interaction density is high by text (11 hand traps, 10 negation, 18 removal) but Called by the Grave is Forbidden and Maxx/Droll are over limit (Verified banlist + Inferred semantic) |
| D8 | Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power | 60 | Going-second strength from hand traps (Ash, Maxx, Droll, Impermanence) and Synchro bosses that break boards; no going-second split recorded (Inferred) |
| D9 | Offensive Pressure & Closing Power | 66 | Synchro bosses at 3000/3000/3000/2900 ATK (Verified stats) with piercing and direct text reads (Inferred) |
| D10 | Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility | 55 | 40 main / 19 distinct; exact-name Swordsoul purity 29.1% with a 15-card Tenyi and 13 generic spread; 15 tech cards (Verified composition) |
| D11 | Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage | 60 | 11 Synchro + 4 Link in 15 slots; Chixiao and Baxia run 2 copies each (Verified composition, Inferred access) |
| D12 | Side Deck Adaptability | 15 | No side deck is run (side_count 0); no post-side data (Provisional) |
| D13 | Matchup Coverage & Format Fit | 40 | No tournament_context or meta sample; Meta Power and matchup fit are Provisional |
| D14 | Pilotability & Error Tolerance | 50 | Several Synchro summon chains and conditional hand-trap timing; moderate decision load (Inferred) |
How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 57, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12). Final formula: Uncapped: 0.80*Structural(57) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) = 54; with modifiers -12 = 42; Illegal cap applied (theoretical/structural only) = 30. Meta provisional (null).
Probability & combo summary
- Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.98 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.02 (all Inferred)
- Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
- Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines
Strengths
- Dense interaction: 11 hand traps and 10 negation texts
- Synchro bosses at 2900-3000 ATK with direct/piercing text
- High archetype-core access (97.6% in opening 5)
Weaknesses
- Illegal list: three copies over limit and a Forbidden card run twice
- Low exact-name archetype purity (29.1%)
- No side deck, so no post-side plan
Critical choke points
- Synchro summon of the boss: the engine depends on a Tuner plus Wyrm/Swordsoul material being live
- Hand-trap timing: most of the interaction needs an opposing activation to be useful
Recommended changes
| Priority | Remove | Add | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Called by the Grave (2 copies) | A legal removal or negation card within the copy limit | Forbidden in Master Duel; the list cannot be legal while it runs |
| 2 | Maxx "C" (2 copies) | Legal-limit filler (1 copy max) | Limited to 1 copy; running 3 breaks the copy limit |
| 3 | Droll & Lock Bird (1 copy) | Legal-limit filler (2 copies max) | Semi-Limited to 2 copies; the third copy is illegal |
| 4 | No change | A side deck of 1-15 cards | A side deck is missing; adding one gives a post-side plan (D12) |
Evidence & confidence
- Verified: Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 within Master Duel size rules; Maxx "C" over limit (3 vs 1); Droll & Lock Bird over limit (3 vs 2); Called by the Grave Forbidden, run 2; Synchro ATK/DEF values from card data
- Inferred: Opening-hand probabilities (hypergeometric); Strategy classification and functional roles; Interaction quality from card text; Going-first/second plans
- Provisional: Meta Power; Matchup fit and D13 score; Side plan quality (D12)
- 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
