RaidRaptor Deck #764238 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

• Primary strategy: Toolbox
• Secondary strategies: Stun
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Attacks from K9-X Werewolf, K9-X Ripper/M, and Raidraptor - Ultimate Falcon, enabled by Xyz summons from K9 and Raidraptor Level 5 monsters (Inferred); Disruption-backed Xyz pressure: Ripper, Jacks, and Masquerade Xyz monsters removing opposing cards (Inferred)
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Level 5 K9 monster or searcher, search or summon a second K9 body, and Xyz into a 9-rank or 5-rank boss while holding Ash Blossom or Impermanence (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Red Reboot, Infinite Impermanence, Droll and Maxx C to answer the first summon chain, then Xyz from the surviving K9 pieces (Inferred)
• Recovery: Use searchers (13 cards) and Seventh Tachyon or Chaotic Elements to rebuild a starter from Deck or GY after interaction trades (Inferred)
• After siding: Not available: side_count is 0, so there is no post-side plan (Verified)

Why it scores here

This list is Illegal in OCG: K9-04 Noroi is Forbidden and is run three times, and "A Case for K9" is Limited to one copy but is run three times, so the score is a structural read capped at 35 and not a normal Final Contextual score. The deck reliably finds a searcher (P(at least one in a 5-card opening hand) is about 0.88, Inferred) and has dense interaction (11 negation-text and 9 removal-text cards plus 8 hand traps), which earns the interaction and closing dimensions. The engine is split across K9, Seventh, Masquerade, Mulcharmy and Raidraptor: only 4 of 40 main cards carry the exact RaidRaptor name, and only 3 of 18 usage-stat core cards are present, so consistency and engine cohesion are the limiting factors. Popularity and archetype label did not earn points, and card scores were not averaged; there are no recorded boards, so the ceiling and median are text-only inference. The side deck is empty, which holds the post-side and matchup dimensions low.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 57, Going Second ≈ 56, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12). Final formula: Illegal: 0.80*Structural(52) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(40) + modifiers(-12) = 37.6, capped to 35 as theoretical/structural-only; Meta provisional (null)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.88 · 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

• Dense searcher and interaction text (13 searchers, 11 negation, 9 removal, 8 hand traps)
• Strong Xyz closers with multi-attack and piercing (K9-X Werewolf, K9-X Ripper/M, Raidraptor Ultimate Falcon)
• Searcher present in a 5-card opening hand about 88% of the time (Inferred)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Forbidden K9-04 Noroi x3 and Limited A Case for K9 x3
• Fragmented engine: exact-name RaidRaptor purity 7.3%, only 3 of 18 usage-core cards present
• No side deck: no post-side adaptation or matchup plan
• No recorded boards, so the combo ceiling and floor are unmeasured

Critical choke points

• K9-04 Noroi and A Case for K9 are the K9 engine's entry points and are illegal at the current copy count
• Xyz summons depend on Level 5 K9 monsters in hand, which the hand-trap stack competes with for hand space

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: K9-04 Noroi Forbidden, 3 copies run, 0 legal; A Case for K9 Limited, 3 copies run, 1 legal; Main 40, Extra 15, Side 0 counts against OCG size rules; Card text and stats for the listed cards; Usage stat: 3 of 18 core cards present
• Inferred: Hypergeometric starter and hand-trap probabilities; Strategy classification (Toolbox, Stun) from card text; Going-first and going-second plans; Structural dimension scores D1-D14
• Provisional: Meta Power (null); D13 matchup and format fit
• 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, matchup, brick or starter rates Meta Power provisional without a dated metagame sample side deck is empty, so post-side performance cannot be evaluated
