Goblin Deck #762867 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 44/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

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

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra Deck boss (Firewall Dragon Singularity, Worldsea Dragon Zealantis, Idaten, Dragon that Devours the Dogma) reached through Wind-Up / Phantom Knights board presence and Normal Summon triggers.; Goblin Biker Dugg Charger / Mean Merciless / Grand Entrance chains into Goblin Biker XYZ and Biker recursion from the GY.
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon a Level 3 or 4 monster (Kagemucha Knight, Marauding Captain, Wind-Up Shark, Wind-Up Magician) to trigger a hand or deck searcher or special summon, then extend into a Link or XYZ boss from the Extra Deck.
• Turn 2 (going second): Answer the opponent's board with Trap Tracks, Mudora or Rescue Ferret, then rebuild from Phantom Knights GY-banish searches and Wind-Up Rat / Carrier Zenmaity recursion.
• Recovery: Banish Phantom Knights monsters from the GY (Decayed Cloak, Silent Boots, Ancient Cloak) to add or summon further Phantom Knights, and detach Wind-Up Carrier Zenmaity material to recur Wind-Up monsters.
• After siding: No side deck is included in the export, so no post-side plan can be assessed.

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a Normal Summon trigger through the x3 Level 3 and 4 starters (Kagemucha Knight, Marauding Captain, Wind-Up Shark, Wind-Up Magician), with searchers (11 cards) reaching a live line in about 65% of opening 5-card hands by hypergeometric estimate. Consistency is held back by 25 singleton main-deck slots and many conditional cards that become dead without a specific GY, banish or material state (Blasting the Ruins, Man with the Mark, Junk Forward, Liquid Soldier, Cockroach Knight), so brick risk is high. The deck converts into pressure through Extra Deck bosses with 3000+ ATK (Firewall Dragon Singularity, Dragon that Devours the Dogma, Idaten), and it survives disruption through several independent recursion routes (Phantom Knights GY banish, Wind-Up Rat, Carrier Zenmaity, Goblin Biker from GY). Score is derived from the system's consistency, recursion and boss output, not from averaging card power, and the deck's popularity or meta share earned no points because no tournament data exists. Without a side deck and with no combo records, the post-side and median-output reads stay low-confidence.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 49.8, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 45, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 42. Modifiers: engine conflicts (-2); hard-garnet and conditional burden (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) + ContextModifiers(-4) = 0.80*49.8 + 0.20*42 - 4 ≈ 44

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ — · 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

• Multiple Level 3/4 Normal Summon triggers give repeated opening access
• Several independent recursion lines from the GY (Phantom Knights, Wind-Up, Goblin Biker)
• Broad removal and negation text across the Main Deck
• High-ATK Extra Deck bosses at the end of the line

Weaknesses

• Low archetype purity (5.3%) and 38 distinct main cards dilute the engine
• Many conditional cards that brick without GY, banish or material state
• No hand traps or floodgates for going second
• No side deck in the export

Critical choke points

• Losing the Level 3/4 Normal Summon starters (Kagemucha, Captain, Shark, Magician) to a single hand or GY removal leaves the Extra Deck boss without a route
• Extra Deck bosses depend on specific Link or XYZ material from the field, so a cleared board stalls the finish

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal status: 60 main, 15 extra, 0 side; Mudora the Sword Oracle is 1 copy of a Limited card; Extra Deck breakdown: 4 XYZ, 6 Link, 5 Fusion; Archetype purity: exact-name Goblin 4 copies, 5.3%; Boss ATK values from card data (e.g. Firewall Dragon Singularity 3500)
• Inferred: P(>=1 starter) and brick-rate reads from hypergeometric estimates and text; Engine redundancy and recursion-based interruption resilience; Going-first and going-second power estimates
• Provisional: Meta Power and format fit (no dated metagame sample); Side-deck adaptability (no side list)
• 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: going-first/second, matchup and brick rates are Inferred Usage statistics flag several Extra Deck cards (Wind-Up Carrier Zenmaity, Wind-Up Zenmaintenance, Primathmech Alembertian, Saryuja Skull Dread, Worldsea Dragon Zealantis, Goblin Biker Big Gabonga) as absent from the deck although they are present in the Extra Deck; the core-missing list is therefore unreliable and was not used for scoring Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
