Atlantean Deck #766836 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±6 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 44 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Link and Xyz boss threats: Azure Ocean Dragon Lord - Neo-Daedalus Rage (2900 ATK), Poseidra Abyss (3000 ATK), Mermail Abyssgaios (2800 ATK), recycled through Atlantis, City of the Sea Dragon and Umi.; Levia-Dragon of Atlantis - Daedalus and Poseidra, the Storming Atlantean as large beaters off Atlantean and Daedalus searches.
• Turn 1 (going first): Search or Special Summon a Sea Serpent/WATER starter (Neptabyss, Atlantean Dragoons, Abyssrhine, Siren Vortex), set up the Umi/Atlantis field, and extend into a Link or Xyz boss.
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand trap Ash Blossom in response to the opponent's first engine, then rebuild through the GY-activated searchers (Warchief, Mermail Abyssteus, Atlantean Dragoons) and summon a boss.
• Recovery: Recur monsters from the GY with Warchief of Atlantis and Monster Arms of Atlantis, and rebuild the Umi field from Advent of Atlantis and Atlantis, City of the Sea Dragon.
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan. Best-of-3 play is structurally unsupported until a side list is built.

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a functional plan: 26 searcher-text cards give a 0.99 chance of at least one searcher in the opening five, and the 17-copy Atlantean core gives 0.93 chance of at least one core card. Its recursion (Warchief, Monster Arms, Advent) and multiple independent starters keep it going after a single disruption, and its Link and Xyz bosses (2800 to 3000 ATK) give it real closing power. Interaction is present but thin: three hand traps, Virtue Stream, and several GY-activated negations, with no recorded boards to show how often they convert. The score is capped low because the list is illegal (Called by the Grave is Forbidden and Ash Blossom is over its Semi-Limited limit) and it has no side deck; popularity and meta-share earned no points, and card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 58, Going First ≈ 58, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) = 55.6 before modifiers; Illegal-list cap applied, final set to 30 (theoretical/structural only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.93 · 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 searcher and recursion engine (26 searcher-text cards)
• Strong Link and Xyz bosses (2800 to 3000 ATK)
• Multiple independent starters for the Atlantean core

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Forbidden card and copy-limit violation
• No side deck
• Thin, conditional interaction
• Off-archetype splash spreads resources across sub-archetypes

Critical choke points

• Atlantis, City of the Sea Dragon and Umi must be live for most boss lines
• Forbidden Called by the Grave and over-limit Ash Blossom must be removed before this list is playable
