DoomZ Deck #765083 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 54/100 (±7 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Combo, Toolbox
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Xyz extension off the DoomZ / Power Patron engine into high-ATK Xyz boards (Vidolium 5000 ATK, Jupiter 3500, Drastrius 2700, Drastea 2400 Xyz).; Equip-based boards (Command A.D.R.A.S.T.E.I.A., Command D.O.O.M.D.U.R.G., Destruction) that carry protection and pressure through removal.
• Turn 1 (going first): Turn 1 search with DoomZ Change, DoomZ Raiders or Portal into a Pendulum/Effect starter (Jupredo, Elara, Amalthe), then Xyz Summon into a boss while holding Ash Blossom and Ghost Ogre for the follow-up.
• Turn 2 (going second): Open with hand traps (Ash, Ghost Ogre, Maxx C) to answer the opponent's first summon or search, then rebuild the engine from the 18 searcher-text cards and go to an Xyz board.
• Recovery: Recursion from the GY: Medius the Pure, Drastea and Amalthe re-enter via their GY and search effects, with Raiders and Change adding DoomZ cards back to hand.
• After siding: None. The deck runs 0 side cards, so there is no post-side plan and no sideboard adaptation.

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a functional plan: 18 searcher-text cards give a P(at least one in a 5-card opening hand) of about 0.96, and the 25 Main Deck monsters and 14 Spells keep the DoomZ engine moving through the opening turns. Conversion is strong on paper because the Extra Deck carries high-ATK Xyz extenders (Vidolium, Jupiter, Drastrius, Drastea), and interaction is layered: Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Maxx C, Regulus and the equip-based DoomZ Commands together give a P(at least one hand trap in a 6-card going-second hand) of about 0.65. Resilience comes from having two engines (DoomZ and Power Patron) and recursion from the GY. The score is held back by an empty Side Deck, which removes any post-side plan, by a combo ceiling that is text-only with no recorded boards, and by an Extra Deck with one conflicting Xyz (Sargas needs a Springans Xyz, of which only one copy is run). Popularity and the guide descriptions did not earn points, and card scores were not averaged; the score comes from the deck as a system.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange, with D13 dropped and the remaining weights renormalized to 95. Structural ≈ 63, Going First ≈ 66, Going Second ≈ 65, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 60. Modifiers: No Side Deck (-4); Xyz engine conflict (-2); Low exact-name archetype purity (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional, no dated sample) = 0.80*63 + 0.20*60 - 8 = 54.4, rounded to 54

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.96 · 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

• Searcher density: 18 searcher-text cards give a high chance of a live starter in the opening hand.
• Layered interaction: 6 hand traps plus negation and removal text cover both going first and going second.
• Real Xyz closing power: Vidolium, Jupiter, Drastrius and Drastea reach high ATK on board.
• Recursion: Medius, Drastea and Amalthe recover the engine from the GY.

Weaknesses

• No Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan.
• Off-archetype spread (Mulcharmy, Branded, Change) lowers engine compactness.
• Sargas and the off-archetype Extra Deck choices are conditional or dead without support.
• Combo ceiling and median cannot be verified because no recorded boards exist.

Critical choke points

• Successful Xyz Summon depends on a DoomZ or Power Patron Xyz staying on the field; a single removal or negation on the material line stops the turn.
• Maxx C and the Limited/Semi-Limited copies are at their legal maximum, so a banlist change would remove a key interaction piece.

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal list: 40 Main, 15 Extra, 0 Side under BanMasterDuel; Maxx C Limited (1 of 1 run) and The Fallen & The Virtuous Semi-Limited (2 of 2 run) are both at their legal maximum; Card texts for the 21 Main and 11 Extra distinct cards as provided
• Inferred: Opening-hand starter probability of 0.96 from the searcher-text group; Going-second hand trap probability of 0.65; Structural scores for D1 to D11 and D14 from text and composition; Interaction density estimated from removal and negation text
• Provisional: D13 matchup and format fit, which needs a dated metagame sample; 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 (going first/second, matchup, brick, starter, OTK rates). Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample. Usage statistics mark DoomZ XII End - Drastrius, DoomZ XIII Over - Graflareio and Varudras as not in this deck, but the cards list runs them in the Extra Deck. The in_this_deck flags conflict with the cards evidence and were not used. Deck title is null, so the deck is identified by id and archetype only. No Side Deck is recorded, so post-side performance is unknown.
