Simorgh Deck #763322 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Stun, Combo
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 57 / Extra 17 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Raidraptor Xyz line (Rising Rebellion Falcon / Ultimate Falcon) built through Rank-Up-Magic and Raidraptor Level 4 recursion; Dark Armed Dragon Punisher and Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon board pressure, with Simorgh as a Winged Beast engine
• Turn 1 (going first): Open on Raidraptor Level 4 starters (Fuzzy Lanius, Bloom Vulture, Tribute Lanius, Strangle Lanius), Xyz into a Raidraptor Xyz, and protect the line with Ash Blossom, Droll and Solemn
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Ash Blossom, Maxx C, Droll, Skull Meister, Ghost Belle, Infinite Impermanence, Red Reboot) to stop the opponent's first summon, then rebuild a Xyz board from Raidraptor recursion
• Recovery: Raider's Wing, Heel Eagle and Mimicry Lanius recover Raidraptor monsters from the GY; Raidraptor - Roost and the Rank-Up-Magic spells restore Xyz materials
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so no post-side plan can be evaluated

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens its Raidraptor Level 4 starters, with about a 90% chance of at least one archetype-core card in an opening hand of five, and it has a credible Xyz route to Rising Rebellion Falcon and Ultimate Falcon. Its strongest quality is interaction: nine hand traps, Forbidden Droplet, Dominus Impulse, Solemn Accusation and Red Reboot give it a lot of answers for a going-second turn. Consistency is held back by off-archetype density (only 4 of 74 archetype-named copies are exact Simorgh cards), Extra Deck spread across sub-archetypes such as Lswarm, Phantom Knights and Arc Rebellion, and a Forbidden card plus an oversized Extra Deck that make the list illegal. Popularity and archetype usage were not counted, and card scores were not averaged into the deck score. No combo boards were supplied, so the ceiling and median scores are text-based inferences and carry low confidence.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 56, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 48. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-6); engine_conflicts (-4). Final formula: Illegal list: theoretical/structural only. Structural 56 + 0.20 x TR 48 = 54 before modifiers; modifiers total -10 gives 44; capped at 30 under the illegal-deck rule.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.9 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.1 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Roughly 90% chance of at least one archetype-core card in a five-card opening hand
• Nine hand traps and several quick-play negates give strong going-second interaction
• Layered Xyz finishers (Rising Rebellion Falcon, Ultimate Falcon) with Raidraptor recursion

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Forbidden Triple Tactics Talent is present and the Extra Deck has 17 cards against a 15-card maximum
• Off-archetype spread: only 4 of 74 archetype-named copies are exact Simorgh cards
• Extra Deck holds non-Raidraptor Xyz and Link options that compete for slots
• No side deck, so no best-of-3 adaptation

Critical choke points

• Raidraptor Xyz line depends on a Level 4 starter plus a Rank-Up-Magic, so disruption on the starter ends the turn
• Ash Blossom and Droll are the main interruption against a single hand-trap-heavy opponent turn

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Triple Tactics Talent is Forbidden and included at 1 copy (legal copies 0); Extra Deck count is 17 with a maximum of 15 under the OCG size rule; Ash Blossom and Dominus Impulse are Semi-Limited at 2 copies, which is legal; Crossout Designator, Droll & Lock Bird, Foolish Burial, Maxx C, Red Reboot and S:P Little Knight are Limited at 1 copy, which is legal; Main Deck has 57 cards and no side deck is registered
• Inferred: Raidraptor Level 4 starters give high opening-hand access (hypergeometric estimate); Nine hand traps give strong going-second interaction (card text read); Xyz recursion gives partial resilience after disruption (card text read)
• Provisional: Meta power and matchup fit: no dated metagame sample or 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 match record are absent No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN for going-first, going-second, matchup or brick rates Meta Power is provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied No side deck registered, so post-side evaluation is not possible Deck title is null, so the archetype label is the only identifier
