Predaplant Deck #767303 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 60 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Large Fusion/Synchro/Tribute bodies (Clown Crew Biancaviso 2500 ATK, Nerva 3300, Starving Venom Fusion Dragon 2800, Secreterion Dragon 3000) reached through the Clown Crew search and summon chain; Ritual Summons (Cyber Angel Benten, Clown Crew Flair) and Link/Pendulum pressure
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Clown Crew or Ritual searcher, convert it through Clown Crew Rehearsal or Malabarisme into a Tribute Summon, and protect the line with Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Solemn Judgment, or Dominus Purge. Hand-trap density is high but the line depends on one starter and no Predaplant core card is present.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit, Nibiru, Droll & Lock Bird) and Dominus Purge to break the opponent's engine, then rebuild through Clown Crew recursion from the GY. Going second is the stronger side of the list on paper.
• Recovery: Clown Crew GY recursion (Clown Crew New Face, Clown Crew Finale, Clown Crew Malabarisme) and Preparation of Rites / Ritual Spell recovery. Recovery depends on the Clown Crew sub-theme staying live.
• After siding: Not evaluable: the export contains no side deck (0 cards), so there is no post-side plan.

Why it scores here

The score comes from the system, not from averaging card scores or from the Predaplant label. The list reliably opens hand traps and Clown Crew searchers at about 72% for at least one searcher in a 5-card hand, but the Clown Crew engine has a 3-copy starter with only about 23% chance of appearing in an opening 5-card hand, so it is far from consistent. The deck contains none of the 16 usage-core Predaplant cards (6.2% core presence), so its name does not match its engine. Interaction density is the deck's real strength: about 13 hand traps, 12 negation-text cards and 28 removal-text cards give it layered answers on the end board. Two cards are over the Semi-Limited copy limit, which makes the list illegal, so the final score is capped and labeled structural-only. No combos, guides, tournament context or side deck were supplied, so ceiling and floor are not measured.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: primary Midrange; Toolbox secondary, not separately weighted. Structural ≈ 40, Going First ≈ 38, Going Second ≈ 42, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: Illegal copy-limit cap (-9); Archetype label mismatch (0). Final formula: Structural 40 -> 0.80*40 + 0.20*35 = 39 raw; Illegal copy-limit cap applied (-9) -> 30. Theoretical/structural-only evaluation; Meta provisional.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.23 · 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

• Layered interaction: hand traps plus negation and removal text (13 hand traps, 12 negation cards)
• Searcher density: about 72% to find a searcher in the opening 5
• Strong Extra Deck boss options at 2500 to 3300 ATK
• Recursion from the GY through Clown Crew cards

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy counts on Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization
• No Predaplant core cards despite the archetype label, so the deck's identity is unclear
• Engine starter only about 23% in an opening 5-card hand
• No side deck, so no post-side adaptability
• Heavy hand-trap load with many non-engine cards risks dead draws

Critical choke points

• Single Clown Crew starter per line
• Illegal copy count must be fixed before any legal evaluation
• Going-first hands depend on a searcher that has only about 23% chance per copy

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Deck size 60 main + 15 extra is within OCG size rules (0-60 main, 0-15 extra); Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization are 3 copies vs Semi-Limited limit 2; Droll & Lock Bird and Linkuriboh and Solemn Judgment are Limited at 1 copy (legal); Predaplant core presence is 1 of 16 cards (6.2%)
• Observed: No combos recorded for this deck (total_combos 0)
• Inferred: P(at least 1 starter in opening 5) about 0.23 for the Clown Crew engine copies; Searcher group about 0.72 in opening 5; Interaction density is the main consistency strength
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit and tournament reliability (no tournament link)
• Data gaps: no combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent no side deck in export: post-side plan cannot be evaluated no win-rate telemetry: going-first, going-second, matchup and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
