Greed Deck #766710 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 4 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Blitzclique and Thunder boards: Whisker Blitzclique (3000 ATK), Thunder Dragon Colossus, Psychic End Punisher and Stardust Dragon, reached through hand-revealed Blitzclique starters and Synchro/Fusion extenders; Hand-trap and negation control: Ash Blossom, Nibiru, Fydraulis Harmonia, Thunder King Rai-Oh and Solemn Accusation stall the opponent while the Extra Deck is built
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Blitzclique starter (Surge, Crackle, Grain or Emi) that destroys a card, then reach a Thunder Synchro or Fusion; the opening hand is only 5 cards, so starter access is thin
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Droll, Nibiru or Fydraulis to interrupt the opponent's Extra Deck summons and then extend with Synchro or Fusion monsters; this is the stronger side of the list
• Recovery: Mulcharmy and Pot of Sloth/Prosperity draw cards to rebuild the hand; Blitzclique Alternator and Return Stroke recover monsters from the Graveyard
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no Side Deck (0 cards), so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a connected system and not as an average of its card scores. Its real engine is a mix of Blitzclique starters, Mulcharmy draw effects and hand traps with a Synchro/Fusion Extra Deck, and it is held back by the fact that only 5.7% of its cards share the exact Greed archetype name. Interaction is its strongest feature, with 8 hand traps and 35 removal-text cards giving a high end-board interaction score (Inferred). Starter access is adequate but not reliable, since each 3-copy starter has a 25% chance of appearing in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred). Popularity did not earn points: the archetype core card Harpie's Feather Duster is absent, and the list breaks the copy limits on four cards, including three copies of the Forbidden Albion the Branded Dragon. Because the list is Illegal, the score is capped at 30 and labelled structural-only.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 51, Going First ≈ 52, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: illegal_list_cap (-20). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional), then Illegal-list cap of -20 → 0.80*51 + 0.20*45 - 20 ≈ 30

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.25 · 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

• Dense hand-trap and negation coverage (8 hand traps, 13 negation-text cards) gives strong going-second interaction
• Layered removal from Blitzclique starters and Solemn Accusation
• Multiple Extra Deck boss options with high ATK (Whisker Blitzclique, Psychic End Punisher, Dragon Devours the Dogma)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: four copy-limit violations, including three Forbidden Albion copies
• Low archetype purity (5.7% exact name) and many off-archetype copies (66)
• No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptability
• No recorded boards, so the combo ceiling and median cannot be verified

Critical choke points

• The 3-copy Blitzclique starters and hand traps all depend on the opening hand, and a 5-card going-first hand has only ~25% chance of holding any given starter
• Three Forbidden Albion copies are dead Extra Deck slots

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: four copy-limit violations (Albion Forbidden 3/0, Ash 3/2, Fallen 3/2, Droll 2/1); Main 55 and Extra 15 are within the size rules; Side 0 is legal but empty; Card text and stats for all 36 distinct cards; Usage stats: Ash 64%, Fuwalos 60%, Droll 60%; Harpie's Feather Duster absent
• Inferred: Starter access (~25% per 3-copy starter in 5 cards; searcher group ≈0.89); Brick and dead-card rate from off-archetype composition; Interaction density from hand-trap and removal text; Going-second advantage from hand-trap coverage
• Provisional: Meta power and format fit (no dated metagame sample); Tournament reliability (no tournament link)
• 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 and starter rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Side Deck is empty, so post-side performance cannot be assessed
