Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 57/100 (±6 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

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

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Polymerization-route Fusion Summon of a Lunalight boss (Leo Dancer, Liger Dancer, Sabre Dancer, Panther Dancer, Perfume Dancer) that attacks twice or is hard to remove; Xyz and Link bodies (Dugares, Drident, Broadbull, Little Knight, Cross-Sheep, Masquerena) as flexible follow-up
• Turn 1 (going first): Search with Gold Leo or Black Sheep, then reach Polymerization-route spells and Fusion-summon a boss while Ash Blossom and Maxx C hold the first interruption
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Maxx C and Dominus Impulse for the opponent's first Special Summon, then rebuild through GY recursion (Yellow Marten, Emerald Bird, Silver Hound) into a Fusion boss
• Recovery: Recover Polymerization-route spells and Lunalight monsters from the GY and banishment with Kaleido Chick, Perfume Dancer and Luna Light Perfume, then re-Fusion
• After siding: No side deck is registered; Master Duel is treated as single-game, so no post-side plan is evaluated

Why it scores here

This Lunalight Master Duel list is legal at 40 Main and 15 Extra with no copy-limit violations, and its three Limited cards each run at the legal single copy. Its score comes from system-level reads: a Polymerization-route Fusion engine backed by 15 searcher-text copies, four hand traps, and eight Lunalight Fusion Extra Deck options ranging from 2000 to 3800 ATK. Floor and median output cannot be measured because no recorded boards were supplied, so D3 and D4 are text-only Inferred estimates. Popularity earned no points on its own: the archetype core is present at 68 percent, which confirms only that the list is real. Brick risk from the empty-field Mulcharmy and Purulia copies, the narrow tech cards, two Zoodiac Xyz with no Zoodiac monsters in the main deck, and the absence of a side deck pull the score down; no card scores were averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 61, Going First ≈ 63, Going Second ≈ 60, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 54. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-1); engine conflict (-2); dead extra slots (-1); engine compactness (1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional); Structural 60.6 and TR 54.1 before modifiers, then -3 net modifiers = 56.6, rounded to 57

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.58 · 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

• Legal at 40 Main and 15 Extra; the three Limited cards each run at the legal single copy
• Dense searcher text (15 copies) gives a high chance of at least one searcher in the opening hand (Inferred)
• Four hand traps plus Dominus Impulse give layered first-interaction options
• Eight Lunalight Fusion Extra options include bosses up to 3800 ATK with second-attack text (verified card text)
• Guide 1248 notes that Lunalight bosses are not affected by Super Polymerization and that effect-based sends trigger their effects (verified guide text)

Weaknesses

• Five Mulcharmy and Purulia copies need an empty field, which is a poor fit for a board-based engine
• Triple Tactics Talent, Foolish Burial and Maxx C are conditional tech cards with narrow use
• Two Zoodiac Xyz lack Zoodiac monster support in the main deck
• No side deck is registered, leaving no adaptation path
• Going-second hand-trap coverage is about 0.49 in 6 cards (Inferred)

Critical choke points

• Six Polymerization-route spells gate every Fusion boss; losing them to disruption stops the main line (Inferred)
• Going second, at least one hand trap is only about 49 percent likely in the opening 6 (Inferred)
