DoomZ Deck #765481 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 58/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 41 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Xyz boss pressure from the DoomZ / Power Patron Extra Deck (Vidolium 5000 ATK pendulum route, Jupiter 3500 ATK, DoomZ Drastea 2400 ATK) once a searcher chain reaches an Xyz.; Ecclesia and the Dark Dragon and Albion the Branded Dragon as additional board pressure, if the Fusion/Synchro slots are reached.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open on a searcher-capable starter (DoomZ Raiders, DoomZ V Five, Medius the Pure, Jupredo) to search the Xyz engine line; hold hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre) for the first opposing activation.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the 6-card hand's hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit, Ghost Mourner, Maxx "C") to disrupt the opponent's first board, then rebuild through the searchers.
• Recovery: Recover through the searcher text (about 17 copies) and the Xyz detach/recursion text, which can rebuild a board after a single interruption.
• After siding: Not applicable: the Master Duel size rules and the evidence show a 0-card side deck, so there is no post-side plan to evaluate.

Why it scores here

The deck scores as a connected system: its 17 searcher-text cards and roughly 94% searcher-group presence make the Xyz engine reachable on most hands, though any given 5-card opening hits a specific 3-copy starter only about 33% of the time (Inferred). Interruption resilience is moderate because several hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Maxx "C") and multiple independent searchers give the deck more than one way to rebuild after disruption. Closing power comes from the Extra Deck Xyz boss text and high-ATK finishers rather than from averaging card scores, and the deck gets no credit for its popularity or the archetype's usage share. The score is capped by the absence of recorded boards, so the combo floor and median are inferred from card text, and there is no side deck or dated meta sample to credit adaptability or matchup fit.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 61, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 63, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 55. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-1); off-archetype engine dilution (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.33 · 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 (17 copies) makes the engine reachable on most hands
• Hand traps and negation text give resilience on both turn orders
• Extra Deck boss threats (Vidolium, Jupiter, Drastea) provide closing pressure

Weaknesses

• No recorded boards, so floor and median output are unverified
• Only 41% of archetype-named copies are exact DoomZ; the engine is diluted across sub-archetypes
• No side deck and no meta sample, so adaptability and matchup fit are unscored

Critical choke points

• A single 3-copy starter at about 33% in a 5-card opening hand
• Reliance on Xyz summons through the Extra Deck once the searcher chain starts

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal in Master Duel: Maxx "C" 1/1 Limited and The Fallen & The Virtuous 2/2 Semi-Limited; 41 main and 15 Extra cards with the Xyz/Synchro/Fusion breakdown given; Card text and ATK/DEF values from the resolved card data
• Observed: Core archetype coverage: 18 of 25 usage-core cards present (72%)
• Inferred: Starter probabilities from the hypergeometric table; Hand-trap coverage on going-second hands; Combo ceiling and floor inferred from text, not boards
• Provisional: Meta Power (null); Matchup fit and side adaptability
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are inferred from card text only No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record are absent No win-rate telemetry in YGOVN: going-first/second, matchup, brick and OTK rates are unmeasured Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Usage statistics mark Varudras, DoomZ XII End, DoomZ XIII Over, Springans Merrymaker, DoomZ Break, Sargas and Jupiter as in_this_deck=false even though the card list includes them with copies, so the missing_core list and core coverage percentage are unreliable
