Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Fusion Summon Albion the Branded Dragon and boss Fusions (Secreterion Dragon, The Dragon that Devours the Dogma, Hyperinvoked Aeon) through Branded Opening and Branded in High Spirits chains; Synchro and Ecclesia boards via Incredible Ecclesia and Blazing Cartesia, with Fallen of Albaz as the Fusion material gate
  • Turn 1 (going first): Branded Opening or Nadir Servant to find a Despia or Dogmatika monster, then Fallen of the White Dragon or Fallen of Albaz to reach a Branded Fusion or Albion-level Fusion; Ash Blossom and Droll protect the first Summon
  • Turn 2 (going second): Use the six-card hand for hand traps (Ash Blossom, Droll and Lock Bird, Maxx C) to stop the opponent's first Summon, then rebuild through Fallen of the White Dragon and Branded Opening
  • Recovery: Branded Retribution and Branded Sword recur Fusion Monsters from the GY, and Mulcharmy draw effects refill the hand after disruption
  • After siding: Not applicable in Master Duel: the list runs no Side Deck (side_count 0), so there is no post-side plan to evaluate

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens through a dense Branded/Fallen starter set: Branded Opening and Branded in High Spirits (3 copies each), Nadir Servant, Fallen of the White Dragon and The Fallen and The Virtuous give many starts, and the archetype-core proxy reaches about 99.7% at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred). It converts those starts into Fusion and Ecclesia boards with a real but incomplete boss package, and it survives disruption with six hand traps plus Branded Retribution and Branded Sword recursion. Scoring is held back by engine conflict (Mulcharmy's control-no-cards condition against a hand-based Branded engine), 42 off-archetype copies (23.6% exact-name purity), the absence of combo recordings, and the absence of a Side Deck. Popularity and the 96-100% core inclusion rates confirm the list is real and accessible but did not earn points by themselves, and card scores were not averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 72 P(at least one of a 3-copy starter in 5 cards) = 0.34 per card; archetype-core proxy P(at least one of 26 core copies in hand) = 0.997; multiple independent starters (Branded Opening, High Spirits, Nadir Servant, Fallen of the White Dragon) (Inferred)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 58 Brick proxy about 0.3% for core cards but 10 singleton and 9 doubled slots, with Mulcharmy and Tri-Brigade cards that are dead without a specific board state (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 70 Ceiling via Albion the Branded Dragon and Fusion chains into Secreterion or Dragon that Devours the Dogma; no recorded boards to verify the ceiling, so this is a text-only read (Inferred)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 55 Median output unknown: zero recorded combos in the evidence; the median is inferred from starter diversity and Fusion-material dependence (Inferred)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 60 Six hand traps (Ash Blossom, Droll and Lock Bird, Maxx C) plus Branded Retribution and Branded Sword recursion give alternate routes after one interruption (Inferred)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 55 Mulcharmy draw effects, Maxx C and Tri-Brigade Mercourier replenish cards, but Branded Opening and Fusion costs consume the hand quickly (Inferred)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 62 Seven removal-text and seven negation-text cards, with Branded Retribution and The Fallen and The Virtuous as the layered answers (Inferred semantic read of text)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 58 Going-second value rests on hand traps and Albion-level boss Fusions, with no going-second combo split available (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 62 Boss stats reach 2500-3800 ATK (Albion, Secreterion, Dragon that Devours the Dogma, Hyperinvoked Aeon); no end-board recordings to confirm closing (Verified stats, Inferred closing)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 52 40 main with 23 distinct cards, 42 off-archetype copies, and Mulcharmy, Tri-Brigade and Springans slots that dilute the engine (Verified composition, Inferred weighting)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 60 14 distinct Extra Deck cards with 12 Fusion and 2 Synchro; Albion the Branded Dragon runs 2 copies, but Hyperinvoked Aeon and D.3.S. Frog are weakly connected to the engine (Verified composition, Inferred)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 20 No Side Deck (side_count 0); Master Duel is not a best-of-3 side format here, so the score is capped low (Verified, Provisional)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 50 Archetype usage stats show strong core presence, but no dated metagame or tournament link exists to judge format fit (Provisional)
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 40 Multi-engine Fusion chains with several decision points (material choice, Fallen of Albaz gating, hand-trap timing) demand a skilled pilot (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 60, Going First ≈ 58, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 48. Modifiers: engine_conflict (-2); banlist_exposure (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional; no dated metagame sample supplied)

Probability & combo summary

  • Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 1 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0 (all Inferred)
  • Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
  • Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

  • Dense starter set with 3-copy Branded Opening and Branded in High Spirits
  • Six hand traps give going-second interaction
  • Boss Fusion ceiling reaches 2500-3800 ATK
  • Archetype core is consistently present (96-100% usage inclusion for core cards)

Weaknesses

  • Mulcharmy engine conflicts with the hand-based Branded plan
  • Only 23.6% exact-name purity; 42 off-archetype copies
  • No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptation
  • No recorded boards, so median output is unverified

Critical choke points

  • Branded Opening or Nadir Servant needs to find a Despia or Dogmatika monster before Fusion access opens
  • Fallen of Albaz is a single copy and gates Branded Fusion and several boss Fusions
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 Hyperinvoked Aeon (Invoked, off-archetype) Rindbrumm the Striking Dragon (96.1% core inclusion) Replaces an off-archetype Extra slot with the highest-inclusion core Fusion; Extra Deck is full at 15 (Inferred from usage statistics)

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Legal under Master Duel size rules (40 main, 15 extra, 0 side) and copy limits; Composition counts and copy histogram; Banlist statuses: Branded Fusion and Maxx C Limited at 1; Droll, Super Polymerization and The Fallen and The Virtuous Semi-Limited at 2; Core usage inclusion percentages
  • Inferred: Starter access and brick estimate from the archetype-core proxy; Ceiling and interaction read from card text; Engine conflict between Mulcharmy and the Branded plan; Pilotability estimate
  • Provisional: Meta Power (null) and D13 format fit: no dated metagame sample; Going-first and going-second split without combo data
  • 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; going-first, going-second, matchup and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
