Unchained Deck #764290 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Unchained Soul Lord of Yama, Unchained Enma Lord Yama and Abominable Unchained Soul (3000 ATK) via Link and Fusion boards built from Unchained recursion and hand-trap-protected starters; Promethean Princess and D/D/D Wave High King Caesar as extra-deck boards (Caesar is Forbidden and cannot be legally played)
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon Unchained Ogre Shma or Unchained Ogre Shara, destroy own card to set up Unchained recursion, then Link Summon Unchained Soul Lord of Yama or Unchained Soul of Rage (text-only plan, Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Effect Veiler, Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Ghost Ogre or Solemn cards to answer the opponent's first summon or activation, then rebuild through Unchained Twins and Shyama (Inferred)
• Recovery: Reincarnation of the Unchained and Abomination's Prison return Unchained cards from the GY and search Unchained Spells and Traps (text-based, Inferred)
• After siding: No side deck is registered (0 cards), so there is no post-side plan; the deck cannot adapt between games

Why it scores here

The deck is scored on the system, not by averaging card scores: a 9-copy Unchained core gives roughly a 61% chance of at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred), and 9 hand traps plus 15 negation-text cards give solid interaction breadth. Output is hard to judge because the export has no recorded boards, so the ceiling (Link/Fusion boards with 3000 ATK) and the median are text-only inference. Popularity does not earn points: Unchained is only 35.7% exact-name purity, and the list runs 45 off-archetype copies (Fiendsmith, Solemn, Kuriboh, Mulcharmy). The list is Illegal under OCG rules because it runs two Forbidden cards (Aerial Eater and D/D/D Wave High King Caesar), so the score is capped at 30 and is structural only. Side deck is empty, which removes any post-side adaptation.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 55, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-8); off_archetype_dilution (-4). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability = 0.80*52 + 0.20*40 = 49.6; modifiers -12 give 37.6; Illegal cap sets the final score to 30 (theoretical/structural only)

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

• Broad interaction: 9 hand traps and 15 negation-text cards
• Unchained recursion (Reincarnation, Prison, Chamber) rebuilds from the GY
• High-ATK Link and Fusion endboards at 3000 and 3500 ATK

Weaknesses

• Two Forbidden cards make the list illegal
• 35.7% exact-name purity with 45 off-archetype copies
• Empty side deck: no post-side adaptation
• No recorded boards or guides to verify any line

Critical choke points

• Unchained Soul Lord of Yama and Enma Lord Yama as the central Link pieces
• Going-first starters with no verified hand-trap protection

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: Aerial Eater and D/D/D Wave High King Caesar are Forbidden in OCG; Main 55 and Extra 15 are within OCG size rules; Exact-name purity is 35.7% (25 of 55 main copies); Side deck count is 0
• Inferred: Core P(>=1 in opening 5) = 0.606 for 9 copies; Hand-trap P(>=1 in 6, going second) = 0.677; Text-based Unchained engine lines and recursion
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit (no tournament data)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry for this deck Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample No side deck registered
