Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Ritual
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Ritual Summon a Drytron Meteonis monster (Draconids or DA Draconids) via Meteonis Drytron, then press the ATK advantage and Drytron Special Summon chain; Xyz and Link follow-up through Drytron Mu Beta Fafnir-free boards, Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS and Haggard-style follow-up (Inferred from Extra Deck composition; no recorded boards)
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Drytron Level 1 starter, Special Summon a Drytron monster from the hand, search the next Drytron piece, and protect the line with Infinite Impermanence or Ash Blossom (Inferred from card text only)
• Turn 2 (going second): Respond to the opponent's board with hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Infinite Impermanence, Droll & Lock Bird) and rebuild through Drytron searches (Inferred)
• Recovery: Recover through Drytron Fafnir and Drytron Zeta Aldhibah searches plus GY revival of Drytron Level 1 monsters (Inferred)
• After siding: Not applicable: the deck has no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a connected Drytron system, not as an average of its card scores. Its archetype core is well represented (Drytron Nu II, Drytron Alpha Thuban, Drytron Delta Altais, Drytron Zeta Aldhibah and Fafnir searchers), and the hypergeometric estimate of at least one archetype-core card in an opening five is about 0.96, so the engine is usually reachable on turn one. The ceiling is capped by the single Meteonis Drytron Ritual starter (about 0.09 chance in an opening five) and by the absence of any recorded combo boards, so the conversion read stays moderate. Interaction density is strong on paper (Infinite Impermanence, Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Red Reboot, Heavy Storm, Harpie's Feather Duster), which lifts the end-board and resilience dimensions. The score is held down by the illegal list (two Forbidden Triple Tactics Talent and one Forbidden F.A. Dawn Dragster), the empty Side Deck, and the lack of any tournament or win-rate evidence; popularity and archetype usage were not treated as power.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 51, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 42, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-10); single-choke-point Ritual starter (-2). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability = 0.80*51 + 0.20*40 = 48.8; context modifiers -12 gives 36.8; capped to 30 because the list is Illegal (structural-only, not a normal Final Contextual score)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.09 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.04 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Large Drytron engine body with several searchers (Fafnir, Zeta Aldhibah, Alpha Thuban)
• Dense interaction suite including Infinite Impermanence, Ash Blossom and Red Reboot
• Multiple Ritual and Xyz closing options with high ATK

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: two Forbidden Triple Tactics Talent and one Forbidden F.A. Dawn Dragster
• Empty Side Deck, so no post-side adaptability
• Off-archetype spread: only about 34% exact Drytron-name purity
• No recorded combo boards or tournament data

Critical choke points

• Meteonis Drytron is a single copy and the only Ritual Spell that starts the Ritual line
• Forbidden cards remove the list from legal play until they are cut

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: OCG size is legal: 55 Main and 15 Extra, Side 0 within 0-15; Triple Tactics Talent 2 copies and F.A. Dawn Dragster 1 copy are over the Forbidden limit; Crossout Designator, Droll & Lock Bird, Foolish Burial, Harpie's Feather Duster, Heavy Storm, Herald of the Arc Light, Linkuriboh, Maxx C, One for One, Red Reboot, and S:P Little Knight are Limited with one legal copy each; Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring is Semi-Limited with two legal copies and two copies run
• Observed: Archetype usage shows Drytron core cards at 100% inclusion
• Inferred: Drytron engine accessibility and consistency estimates from the hypergeometric table; Interaction density read from card text; Going-first and going-second plans derived from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power is null without a dated metagame sample; Matchup fit is unknown without tournament data
• 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 are absent No win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchup, brick or OTK rates Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample Side Deck is empty, so post-side scoring is unavailable
