Icejade Deck #764522 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Link and Extra Deck pressure from Atlantis/Umi/Daedalus Link monsters (Azure Ocean Dragon Lord - Neo-Daedalus Rage, Levia-Dragoon - Daedalus, Worldsea Dragon Zealantis) once the Atlantis field and Umi-named monsters are online; Mulcharmy draw-engine card advantage that sustains repeated Extra Deck summons
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a searcher or Fish Sonar / Warchief of Atlantis / First Penguin line into Atlantis, City of the Sea Dragon and Umi, then Link Summon Daedalus monsters from the Extra Deck
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Infinite Impermanence, Spiritual Water Art - Aoi) and Call of Atlantis negation to disrupt the opponent's first engine, then rebuild through Mulcharmy draws
• Recovery: Recur Atlantis-named monsters from the GY through Warchief of Atlantis, Monster Arms of Atlantis and Levia-Dragoon, and rebuild the Atlantis field with Advent of Atlantis
• After siding: No side deck supplied (side_count 0); no post-side plan can be evaluated

Why it scores here

The deck is not built around its stated Icejade archetype: exact-name purity is 0%, and the list is a related Atlantis/Umi/Daedalus Link shell with Mulcharmy draw support. Its opening access is strong (searcher text across 20 copies gives about a 0.91 chance of at least one searcher in a 5-card opening hand, Inferred), so Engine Accessibility scores 72. Interaction is layered (hand traps, Daedalus Maelstrom, Call of Atlantis, Gordian Slicer, Ash and Droll), and the Link Extra Deck supplies closing power, but the list is illegal on three restricted cards and has no side deck, so the structural read is capped at a theoretical value of 30. No combo boards, tournament link, or win-rate data exist, so median output, matchup fit, and post-side adaptability are Inferred or Provisional, and the score comes from consistency, interaction, and closing power on the system rather than from averaging card scores or from archetype popularity.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 59, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: Banlist exposure (-4); Dependence on Extra Deck links (-2); Weak/absent post-side plan (-1). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability = 0.80*59 + 0.20*50 = 57.2; context modifiers -7 → 50.2; Illegal cap applied → 30 (theoretical/structural-only, not a normal Final Contextual score)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.91 · 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 density (20 copies) gives very high opening-hand access to the engine (Inferred)
• Layered interaction: 8 hand traps plus negation and removal text (Inferred)
• Extra Deck link pressure with 2600–2900 ATK finishers (Verified stat)
• Recursion from GY through several Atlantis/Umi monsters supports a second route (Inferred)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: three cards exceed their copy limits in the OCG format
• Archetype label 'Icejade' does not match the list; the deck is an Atlantis/Umi/Daedalus shell
• No side deck, so no best-of-3 adaptation
• No combo, tournament or win-rate evidence to confirm conversion
• Many tech and hand-trap slots dilute engine density

Critical choke points

• Atlantis, City of the Sea Dragon (1 copy) is the single field-zone enabler; losing it to a board breaker or a field-control card slows the Umi engine
• Link Extra Deck summons depend on specific Daedalus/Atlantis materials in hand or GY

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 sizes against OCG size rules; Three copy-limit violations: Ash Blossom 3/2, Super Polymerization 3/2, Droll & Lock Bird 2/1; Printed ATK/DEF of Neo-Daedalus Rage (2900), Zealantis (2500), Levia-Dragoon (2600); Archetype core group of 20 copies and usage stats (12 core cards, 8 present)
• Inferred: Starter access ≈ 0.91 from hypergeometric draw estimates; Interaction density and brick risk from card text; Going-first and going-second plans from text and composition; Combo ceiling from text (no recorded boards)
• Provisional: Meta Power (null, no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit and tournament reliability; Side-deck adaptability (no side deck)
• Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link — archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN — brick/starter/OTK and matchup signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied No side deck supplied (side_count 0) Deck title is null
