Identity & game plan
- Win condition: Xyz chains from Phantom Knights starters and Rank-Up-Magic into 2500-3000 ATK Xyz Dragons and Phantom Knights Xyz that recur from the GY; Mitsurugi ritual boss (Ame no Murakumo, 3200 ATK) via Mitsurugi Ritual and Mitsurugi Prayers, with Dominus traps as interaction
- Turn 1 (going first): Open a Phantom Knights starter (Torn Scales, Silent Boots, Decayed Cloak, Doomed Soleret), search or Special Summon a second Phantom Knights body, and Xyz into a boss while holding Ash Blossom or Infinite Impermanence for the opponent's response
- Turn 2 (going second): Use the 12 hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Ghost Mourner, Droll & Lock Bird, Maxx C, Infinite Impermanence) to break the opponent's first summon or search, then rebuild from the GY through Phantom Knights recursion
- Recovery: Banish Phantom Knights monsters from the GY for Silent Boots, Decayed Cloak, Raider's Wing or Rank-Up-Magic to rebuild the Xyz board after an interruption
- After siding: No side deck is present in the export, so there is no post-side plan to evaluate; a best-of-3 build would need one
Why it scores here
The deck reliably opens a Phantom Knights starter: the 28-copy archetype core has P(at least one in a 5-card opening hand) of about 0.96, and 16 searcher-text cards add redundancy, so the engine comes online often (Inferred). Its ceiling is high because the Xyz and Rank-Up-Magic chain can reach 2500-3000 ATK bosses and recur from the GY, but the export has no parsed boards, so the median output is only a text-based estimate (Inferred). Interaction is dense: 12 hand traps, about 32 removal-text cards and several negation effects give it good answers on both turns, and the 12 hand traps give roughly 75% odds of at least one in a 6-card going-second hand (Inferred). The score is held back by a 33% exact-archetype purity, with 11 Mitsurugi and 6 Dominus copies diluting the engine, by the absence of a side deck, and by a complex chain-heavy pilot path. Popularity and guide coverage were not counted as power; the score comes from the system's consistency, recursion, interaction and conflicts, not from averaging card scores.
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | Engine Accessibility & Consistency | 70 | P(at least one of the 28-copy archetype core in a 5-card opening hand) ≈ 0.96; 16 searcher-text cards add redundancy (Inferred) |
| D2 | Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management | 58 | 24 singletons and 12 hand traps are often dead when the opponent has no board; the Mitsurugi/Dominus sub-engines add conditional bricks at 33% exact-archetype purity (Inferred) |
| D3 | Combo Conversion & Ceiling | 72 | Xyz/Rank-Up-Magic chains reach 2500-3000 ATK bosses and recur from the GY, but no combos were parsed, so the ceiling rests on card text alone (Inferred) |
| D4 | Combo Floor & Median Output | 58 | No recorded boards exist, so median output is estimated from starter diversity and text only; treated as moderate (Inferred) |
| D5 | Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy | 70 | Recursion from the GY through Silent Boots, Decayed Cloak and Raider's Wing gives several independent restart lines after disruption (Inferred) |
| D6 | Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind | 72 | 16 searcher-text cards and GY-to-field recursion refill resources efficiently across turns (Inferred) |
| D7 | End-Board & Interaction Quality | 74 | 12 hand traps, Dominus Spark and Dominus Impulse, Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre and about 32 removal-text cards give layered interaction (Inferred semantic read from card text) |
| D8 | Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power | 72 | 12 hand traps give about 0.75 odds of at least one in a 6-card going-second hand, plus Droll & Lock Bird and Maxx C for going-second disruption (Inferred) |
| D9 | Offensive Pressure & Closing Power | 70 | Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon, Arc Rebellion and Borrelsword reach 2500-3000 ATK, with piercing and direct attack text limited to a few cards (Verified card text, Inferred closing) |
| D10 | Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility | 55 | 60 main-deck cards at the maximum with 14 tech cards and 33% exact-archetype purity; the density is real but partly diluted (Verified count, Inferred efficiency) |
| D11 | Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage | 62 | 15 Extra Deck cards spread across 11 Xyz and 4 Link, with several off-archetype Xyz (Dark Requiem, Arc Rebellion, Evilswarm Ophion, Dingirsu) lowering coherence (Verified breakdown, Inferred coverage) |
| D12 | Side Deck Adaptability | 35 | No side deck in the export, so there is no post-side plan to assess; scored low by absence (Verified absence, Provisional) |
| D13 | Matchup Coverage & Format Fit | 50 | No tournament link and no dated meta sample, so matchup fit cannot be measured; Phantom Knights is a known, accessible archetype in the guides (Provisional) |
| D14 | Pilotability & Error Tolerance | 45 | Multi-step Xyz chains, several single-name targeting effects and three sub-archetype routes make the deck demanding to pilot (Inferred) |
How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Combo primary with Stun secondary for the hand-trap and interaction weighting; blend not numerically applied. Structural ≈ 66, Going First ≈ 66, Going Second ≈ 68, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 60. Modifiers: No side deck (-3); Limited key cards in format (-1); Engine conflicts (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) + ContextModifiers(-6)
