Legality

Main 41 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 7 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Ritual-summon Black Chaos or Black Luster Soldier, or Magician of Dark Chaos - Black Chaos, and close with 2800-3000 ATK bodies backed by Link and Fusion/Synchro Extra Deck threats; Ars Magna / Mulcharmy draw-and-recursion grind into Link beatdown
  • Turn 1 (going first): Open Griffoh, Mulcharmy and the Ritual Spell, reach a Ritual Summon of Black Chaos or Black Luster Soldier while holding Ash Blossom or Droll as interaction
  • Turn 2 (going second): Use Ash Blossom, Droll, Kuriboh and Griffoh to break the opponent's first board, then Ritual or Link into a field presence
  • Recovery: Recover the Ritual Spell and Light and Darkness monsters from the GY through Skull Archfiend, Mind Shuffle and Ars Magna banish-based searches
  • After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs zero Side Deck cards and no post-side data exists

Why it scores here

The score is a theoretical, structural-only read because the list is illegal: three Ash Blossom copies and two Droll copies exceed their limits, and five Forbidden cards (Magicians' Souls, Charmer Quartet, Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon, Cross-Sheep, XX-Saber Gottoms) are run. The archetype core is consistent: the 24 core copies give an estimated 0.99 chance of at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred). The deck can reach 2800-3000 ATK bodies and has strong interaction density from Ash, Droll, Kuriboh, Griffoh and Medius. Median output and going-second conversion are not measured, since no combo boards or win-rate data exist, so those dimensions are Provisional. The score comes from consistency, interaction and closing power on the system, not from averaging card scores, and popularity in the archetype usage stats did not earn points. The illegal cap, not the rubric, sets the final figure.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 70 P(at least one core card in 5-card hand) >= 0.99 for 24 archetype-core copies; no hypergeometric starter check beyond that (Inferred)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 60 5 hand traps and 6 draw-effect Mulcharmy copies give some redundancy, but Medius and Ritual-only cards can dead-draw without a Ritual Spell (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 60 Ceiling from text: Ritual Summon of Black Chaos or Black Luster Soldier plus Ars Magna and Skull Archfiend recursion; no recorded boards to verify (Inferred)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 45 No combo boards in evidence, so median output is unknown and held near the midpoint (Provisional)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 65 Ash, Droll, Kuriboh, Griffoh and Mulcharmy give independent answers to a first disruption; route count is textual only (Inferred)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 55 Ars Magna and Skull Archfiend recursion and Mind Shuffle searches regrow resources; ritual costs are heavy (Inferred)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 65 Spell Shattering Sword, The Great Gallant Bandit, Medius, Chorozo and Masquerena negation text give layered interaction (Inferred)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 60 Gallant Bandit and Chaos Angel can challenge a board, but two of the strongest going-second cards are illegal (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 75 Black Chaos 3000, Black Luster 3000, Chaos Angel 3500 and Link beatdown give strong end-board ATK (Verified stat, Inferred closing)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 55 41 Main cards with 23 distinct; the 6 Mulcharmy and 3-copy staples are compact, but illegal copies drag the score (Inferred)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 55 Extra Deck has 15 cards, 9 Link, 2 Synchro and 4 Fusion; 5 of 15 are Forbidden or over-limit and must be cut (Verified)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 5 No Side Deck cards run, so post-side adaptability cannot be assessed (Provisional)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 50 No tournament link or meta-share data; archetype format fit is unknown (Provisional)
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 40 Multi-step Ritual, Link and Fusion lines with several decision points on turn 1 raise the pilot burden (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 59, Going First ≈ 62, Going Second ≈ 55, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12). Final formula: Illegal cap: 0.80*Structural(59) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) = 56, then modifiers, then capped at 30 because the deck is Illegal (theoretical/structural-only). Meta Power is null (Provisional).

Probability & combo summary

  • Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.99 · 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

  • Core archetype density (24 copies) makes a starter in the opening hand very likely
  • Five hand traps plus several negation and removal texts give layered interaction
  • Extra Deck threats reach 2800-3500 ATK, closing power is high
  • Recursion through Ars Magna and Skull Archfiend supports resource recovery

Weaknesses

  • Illegal list: 3 Ash Blossom, 2 Droll and five Forbidden cards must be removed
  • No Side Deck, so no post-side plan and no sideboard adaptation
  • No combo or win-rate evidence, so median output is unknown
  • Dependence on several Ritual Spells and Link cards in one line

Critical choke points

  • Light and Darkness Ritual or a Ritual monster in hand as the enabler for the main Ritual Summon line
  • Forbidden Extra Deck cards (Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon, Charmer Quartet, Cross-Sheep, XX-Saber Gottoms) occupy Extra slots that must be replaced
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 Magicians' Souls, Charmer Quartet in Bloom, Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon, Cross-Sheep, XX-Saber Gottoms Legal replacements for the Extra Deck slots, chosen from the archetype core list (Called by the Grave is listed as core at 71.9% inclusion, legality to verify) These five cards are Forbidden in-format; the deck cannot be legal while it runs them
2 1 Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring and 1 Droll & Lock Bird Two legal cards from the archetype core or staple pool Ash is over its Semi-Limited cap of 2 and Droll is over its Limited cap of 1
3 None (side deck is empty) A 15-card Side Deck with negation or ritual-matchup tech Adds a post-side plan, which the current list entirely lacks

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Illegal status: 7 copy-limit violations (Forbidden, Limited, Semi-Limited); Main 41 and Extra 15 are within size rules, Side 0; Core archetype group of 24 copies, usage inclusion of core cards
  • Inferred: P(at least one core card in opening 5) >= 0.99; Interaction density from hand traps and negation text; Closing power from listed ATK values
  • Provisional: Median combo output; Matchup and format fit; Post-side plan and tournament reliability
  • Data gaps: no combos supplied: combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry: going-first/second, matchup and brick rates unknown Side Deck is empty, so post-side adaptability cannot be assessed Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
