Blackwings Deck #763523 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 60/100 (±7 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Control
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro Summon Red Dragon Archfiend, Tyrant Red Dragon Archfiend, Red Supernova Dragon or Red Hypernova Dragon from a Resonator-tuner and non-Tuner board, then close with 3000+ ATK monsters; Resonator recursion and Crimson Gaia / Red Zone value that rebuilds the Synchro board after interaction
• Turn 1 (going first): Search a Resonator or Archfiend starter (Resonator Call, Crimson Gaia, Soul Resonator), use Power Vice Dragon or Bone Archfiend to reach a Tuner plus non-Tuner, Synchro into a Red Dragon Archfiend, and hold Gravity Collapse, Debunk or Typhoon up for the opponent's first response
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Skull Meister and Debunk to answer the opponent's first board, then rebuild through Resonator searchers and Mulcharmy Fuwalos draws into a Synchro from hand
• Recovery: Recycle Resonators from the GY (Synkron Resonator, Vision Resonator, Crimson Call) and re-Synchro through Tuners in hand; Red Zone and Mulcharmy Fuwalos replace lost cards
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs zero Side Deck cards, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck opens a functional plan reliably because 15 Resonator and Archfiend searchers give about an 81% chance of at least one searcher in a 5-card opening hand, and eight Tuners in the Main Deck make Synchro access redundant (Inferred). Conversion is strong at the ceiling: Red Dragon Archfiend, Tyrant Red Dragon Archfiend, Bystial Dis Pater and Red Supernova Dragon all reach 3000 to 4500 ATK, but no recorded boards exist, so median output is text-only inference. Interaction is the main reason it survives disruption, with three Gravity Collapse, three Debunk, three Typhoon, three Skull Meister and several Spell/Trap destruction cards. Popularity and usage stats did not earn points: the deck runs none of the 13 archetype-core Blackwing cards, so the Blackwings label is treated as unsupported. The score comes from consistency, median-plus-ceiling output and interaction on the system, not from averaging card scores; the missing Side Deck and absent meta data pull the score down.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 60.6, Going First ≈ 66, Going Second ≈ 57, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 58. Modifiers: Resonator searcher redundancy (1); Single Synchro-tuner dependency (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional; Structural is meta-neutral with D13 dropped and weights renormalised over 95): 0.80*60.6 + 0.20*58 = 60.1

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

• Redundant searchers (15) and Tuners (8) give several routes to a Synchro boss
• Dense Spell/Trap and negation interaction covers early responses
• Extra Deck holds 15 Synchro bosses at 3000 to 4500 ATK with varied effects

Weaknesses

• No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptation in best-of-3
• Runs none of the 13 archetype-core Blackwing cards, so the Blackwings label and any archetype-standard expectations do not match the list
• Several cards are reactive or conditional (Debunk, Gravity Collapse, Typhoon, Skull Meister), so hands can stall without opponent action

Critical choke points

• Tuner plus non-Tuner on the field for Red Dragon Archfiend and most Synchro bosses
• A face-up Synchro monster needed to activate Gravity Collapse

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main Deck 55 and Extra Deck 15 are within OCG size rules; Harpie's Feather Duster is Limited at 1 copy, run at 1; Card text for all cards; 0 of 13 archetype-core cards present in the usage statistics
• Inferred: Hypergeometric P(≥1) values for starters, searchers and Skull Meister; Interaction density and engine consistency from card text; Ceiling and going-first/second estimates from card text and probabilities
• Provisional: Median output (no boards); Matchup and format fit (no dated meta, no tournament link); Meta Power (null)
• 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 for going-first/second, matchups, or brick/starter rates Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Archetype label 'Blackwings' conflicts with the list, which runs zero Blackwing-named cards No guides attached for this archetype
