Dark World Deck #767029 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 48/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Tempo
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fiend Extra Deck beatsticks and boss monsters (Reign-Beaux Overking, Grapha Dragon Overlord, Bigfoot, Clorless) pressed through a Dark World searcher engine; Danger! hand-summon engine (Nessie, Chupacabra, Mothman, Jackalope, Tsuchinoko) that draws 1 per summon and chains into Fiend beatsticks
• Turn 1 (going first): Gates of Dark World or Genta plus Dark World Dealings or Dark Corridor to find a Dark World searcher, then Danger! hand-summons to fill the board and reach a 3000-ATK boss
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand-summon Danger! monsters through the opponent's turn for card advantage, then use Dark World revival (Reign-Beaux, Sillva, Ceruli) to rebuild after a board wipe
• Recovery: Graveyard recursion: Reign-Beaux Overking and Sillva self-summon from the GY, Genta and Snoww recover searches, and Dark World Accession can return from the GY
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered (0 cards), so there is no post-side plan; the deck cannot adapt between games

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a system: its searcher network (Genta, Snoww, Reign-Beaux Overking, Gates of Dark World, Dark World Accession, Dark Corridor, Danger! hand-summons) gives an estimated 83% chance of at least one archetype-core card in the opening five, and roughly 17% of hands are proxy bricks. Its ceiling is credible on paper because it reaches 2800-3200 ATK Fiend bosses through Extra Deck Fusion, Link and Xyz, but no recorded boards exist, so the combo floor, median and ceiling are inferred from card text rather than measured. Interaction is thin: Skill Drain, Eradicator Epidemic Virus, Card Destruction and Reign-Beaux Overlord's board wipe, with no hand traps. The deck has no Side Deck, which caps its adaptability and tournament reliability. The score does not come from Dark World's popularity or from averaging card power; the usage statistics only confirm that the list is a real, accessible build.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 51, Going First ≈ 52, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 52. Modifiers: No Side Deck (-2); Banlist exposure (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional; no dated metagame sample)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.83 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.17 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• High searcher density (16 cards) gives reliable access to the Dark World engine
• Danger! hand-summons provide cheap, repeatable card flow
• Extra Deck covers Fusion, Link and Xyz boss routes with 14 distinct cards
• Several 3000+ ATK bosses with GY recursion keep pressure after the first wave

Weaknesses

• No Side Deck, so no adaptation between games
• Thin interaction with no hand traps and single-copy restricted disruption
• No recorded combo data, so the ceiling and median are text-only inference
• Engine purity is 40%, with 42 off-archetype copies diluting consistency

Critical choke points

• Reliance on a single Dark World searcher line (Genta and Gates of Dark World) to start the boss plan
• Limited single-copy Skill Drain and Card Destruction cannot be replaced by a side deck

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal in OCG: 55 Main, 15 Extra, 0 Side within size rules; Three Limited single-copy cards, all legal copies; Archetype purity 40%, 16-copy core group, Extra Deck breakdown 4 Fusion / 8 Link / 3 Xyz
• Observed: Usage statistics confirm the Dark World core (Reign-Beaux Overking, Snoww, Grapha Dragon Lord, Danger! Nessie) is the archetype standard
• Inferred: Opening-hand consistency P(>=1 core) = 0.83 and proxy brick rate 0.17 (hypergeometric); Going-first and going-second estimates and the D3/D4 ceiling/median from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power is null and matchup fit (D13) is provisional without a dated metagame sample
• Data gaps: No combos supplied; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick/starter/OTK rates) No dated metagame sample, so Meta Power stays provisional No Side Deck registered
