Invoked Deck #765697 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Midrange, Toolbox
• Format: tcg

Legality

Main 54 / Extra 16 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion and Link pressure from Invoked and Power Patron Extra Deck monsters, sustained by Aleister and Invocation searches; Invoked Oceanus or Hyperinvoked Aeon boards that negate and banish on summon
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon an Aleister or Ars Magna starter, search a second Aleister, then Fusion Summon an Invoked monster with Invocation
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand-trap interruption (Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Droll and Lock Bird) followed by a Fusion or Link board through the remaining hand
• Recovery: Recursion from the GY through Invocation Sword, Gamma Summon and Aleister the Invoker, all of which keep rebuilding the Invoked engine
• After siding: Not assessable: the side deck is empty, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

This deck is Illegal as submitted: it runs 3 copies of Mirage of Nightmare (Forbidden), 3 copies of Ash Blossom (2 legal), and 16 Extra Deck cards (limit 15), so the score is a capped, theoretical structural reading only. Its engine is well-supplied: the Invoked and Aleister core is present in 33 Main Deck cards, and the hypergeometric estimate gives about 0.99 chance of at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred). Interaction density is high, with 10 hand traps and a 27-card removal-text count, so the deck can answer a single interruption. It scores low on the side deck (0 cards), on combo evidence (no recorded boards, so floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference), and on matchup fit (no tournament data). Popularity and archetype usage did not earn points, and no card scores were averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Balanced (unclear primary strategy; combo evidence absent). Structural ≈ 53, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 48. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-10); extra_deck_over_limit (-2). Final formula: Illegal cap: the normal formula 0.80*Structural(53) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(48) = 52.0 with Meta provisional, then the banlist and over-limit modifiers (-12) were applied; the result is capped at 30 because the deck is Illegal. This is a theoretical, structural-only score.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.99 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.01 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• A dense archetype core with about 0.99 chance of starting in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred)
• High hand-trap and negation density gives resilience against single interruptions (Inferred)
• Several independent starters and GY recursion give route redundancy (Inferred)

Weaknesses

• Illegal in TCG: Forbidden and over-limit cards and an oversized Extra Deck (Verified)
• Low archetype purity (24.3%) means the list mixes several sub-archetypes (Verified)
• No side deck, so there is no post-side plan (Verified)
• No recorded boards, so combo output cannot be measured (Verified)

Critical choke points

• Aleister monsters are needed to unlock Invocation and most Fusion summons, so disrupting them shuts down several lines (Inferred)
• Extra Deck access depends on Invocation and Aleister in hand or GY; no non-Aleister Fusion path was found (Inferred)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: 2 cards over their copy limits and an Extra Deck of 16 (limit 15); status Illegal; Banlist: Mirage of Nightmare Forbidden; Ash Blossom Semi-Limited (2 legal); Called by the Grave, S:P Little Knight and Triple Tactics Talent Limited; Composition: 54 Main, 0 Side, 16 Extra; 11 Fusion and 5 Link Extra Deck monsters; Archetype purity 24.3% with a spread across Invoked, Ars Magna, Mulcharmy, Aleister and others
• Inferred: Opening-hand consistency from the archetype core (P at least one in 5 = 0.9936); Interaction density from hand-trap and negation text counts; Route redundancy from multiple starter types and GY recursion; Going-second hand-trap availability (P at least one hand trap in 6 = 0.73)
• Provisional: Matchup and format fit: no tournament data or dated meta sample
• Data gaps: No combos supplied, so floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link, so archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record are absent No win-rate telemetry, so going-first and going-second splits are inferred Side deck is empty, so post-side adaptability cannot be assessed Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample
