Dominus Deck #766241 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 52/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Stun, Tempo
• Format: master-duel

Legality

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

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Yummy Synchro and Link boards (Zalen, Ignister, Fydraulis, Malong) that outsize a stalled board, with Mignon and Acroquey adding ATK and removal; Hand-trap-supported board control that trades 1-for-1 and lets the Extra Deck summon finish
• Turn 1 (going first): Hand-summon a Level 1 Yummy (Cooky, Lollipo, Marshmao) into a Link-1 (Snatchy or Linkuriboh) to reach Synchro/Link summons, holding hand traps for the opponent's first answer
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (84% chance of at least one in the six-card hand) and Maxx C or Droll to disrupt the opponent's first board, then follow up through Synchro monsters from the Extra Deck
• Recovery: Recur Yummy monsters and spells from the GY (Mignon, Cupsy, Yummy Surprise); Maxx C and Malong draw or reset the board
• After siding: None: the deck runs no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan and no way to adapt between games

Why it scores here

This is a Yummy-centred synchro and link list with 10 hand traps, 16 removal-text cards and 11 negation-text cards, so its strongest read is interaction density and a reasonable chance of a Level 1 starter in hand. The core Yummy group has a 92% chance of at least one card in a five-card opening hand (Inferred), which supports engine access. The deck has no recorded boards, no combo aggregates and no tournament data, so the ceiling and median scores rest on card text alone and are held down. The list has no Side Deck, and only 9.1% of the main deck uses the exact Dominus name, so it earns no adaptability credit and its archetype label is not a source of power. The score comes from consistency and interaction on the system, not from Dominus popularity or an average of card scores; there is no usage-share credit either.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 57, Going First ≈ 58, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 52. Modifiers: no_side_deck (-2); engine_conflict_or_identity (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) + ContextModifiers = 0.80*57.34 + 0.20*52 - 4 = 52.27, rounded to 52

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.92 · 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

• Ten hand traps and 16 removal-text cards give dense interaction
• Level 1 Yummy hand-summons give an early starter in most hands
• Several recursion routes from the GY

Weaknesses

• No Side Deck
• Only 9.1% exact Dominus-name purity; the archetype label does not describe the list
• Low Dominus-specific core: S:P Little Knight and Dominus Impulse are absent
• No recorded boards, so ceiling and median are unmeasured

Critical choke points

• A Link-1 on the field is needed for most Yummy Synchro and Level 1 hand-summon lines
• Snatchy x2 are the only Link-1 starters in the Extra Deck

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal status and 40/15/0 counts; Copy counts and banlist statuses for all six restricted cards; Archetype spread: Yummy 17, Dominus 5, generic 22; Core-group starter probability 0.9193 (hypergeometric)
• Inferred: D1 and D2 consistency estimates; Going-first and going-second interaction and board reads from text; Interaction density from card text (16 removal, 11 negation)
• Provisional: Meta Power and D13 matchup/format fit (no dated meta sample)
• 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/second, matchup, brick, starter or OTK rates) Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample Deck title is null Usage statistics show 7 of 9 core cards present; S:P Little Knight and Dominus Impulse are missing
