Yubel Deck #767290 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 34/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

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

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Yubel and Fiendsmith boss monsters (Yubel, Yubel - Terror Incarnate, Fiendsmith's Desirae, Fiendsmith's Lacrima) overwhelm the board through Fusion and Link summons from the Extra Deck.; Luce the Dusk's Dark and Garura as Fiend/Fairy and Winged Beast pressure once GY fuel is available.
• Turn 1 (going first): Search and summon a Fiend or Yubel starter, use Fiendsmith Engraver and Fiendsmith's Tract to reach Fusion or Link materials, and protect the line with Ash Blossom and Infinite Impermanence.
• Turn 2 (going second): Open 6 cards, use Droll & Lock Bird and Ash Blossom to slow the opponent's search, then rebuild through Nightmare Throne and Super Polymerization.
• Recovery: Recover through GY-based revival and searches from Spirit of Yubel, Unchained Soul Lord of Yama, and Nightmare Throne, with Fiendsmith's Requiem and Fiendsmith's Sequence as links back into the Extra Deck.
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered (side_count 0), so there is no post-side plan; the deck cannot adapt between games.

Why it scores here

The deck is scored on its system, not on an average of its cards. Its consistency is moderate: the archetype-core group (14 copies) has about a 0.78 chance of at least one copy in an opening 5-card hand, but the list is spread across 33 distinct Main Deck cards with only about 7% exact-name Yubel purity, so bricking and sub-archetype conflicts (Fiendsmith, Mulcharmy, Unchained, Sacred Beast) pull it down. Combo evidence is absent, so conversion and median output are text-only inferences and are scored conservatively. Interaction is real (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Droll & Lock Bird, Lightning Storm, Harpie's Feather Duster) but has no recorded performance data. The score is capped because the list is Illegal in OCG: four cards exceed their copy limits, and the deck has no Side Deck. Popularity and archetype share were not used to raise the score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 47, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 44, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: Illegal list (copy limits exceeded) (-12). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional); Illegal-list cap applied as -12 modifier

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.78 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.22 (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 summon text (20 searcher-text cards) keeps the starter findable
• Layered hand-trap and negation coverage (8 hand traps, 6 negation-text cards)
• Full Extra Deck with Fusion and Link boss options

Weaknesses

• Illegal in OCG: four cards exceed copy limits and must be cut before the deck is playable
• Low archetype purity (7%); sub-archetype mixing (Fiendsmith, Mulcharmy, Unchained, Sacred Beast) causes engine conflicts
• No Side Deck; no post-side adaptability
• No recorded combo evidence to confirm conversion or median output

Critical choke points

• Single-copy Limited Fiendsmith and Yubel pieces (Fiendsmith's Lacrima, Phantom of Yubel) are one-of choke points once the copy limits are fixed
• Dependence on Fiend-type searches for the Yubel and Fiendsmith lines

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status and four copy-limit violations (legality block); Main 55, Extra 15, Side 0 counts; Archetype purity 7.1%; 33 distinct Main Deck names; Extra Deck: 8 Fusion, 7 Link
• Inferred: Starter probability ≈ 0.78 and brick proxy ≈ 0.22 (hypergeometric estimate); Interaction quality from card text (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Droll & Lock Bird, Lightning Storm); Going-second hand-trap coverage ≈ 0.63
• Provisional: Meta power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit and tournament reliability
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck has no title; deck_name is null No Side Deck registered
