Adamancipator Deck #767334 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 40/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Synchro, Link
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 57 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro and Link beatdown from Adamancipator excavation into high-ATK Rock Synchros (Risen - Tiamite 3300 ATK, Risen - Dragite 3000 ATK) and Nibiru 3000 ATK (Verified stats; plan Inferred); Dragunity Knight - Areadbhair 3300 ATK and Visas Amritara 2500 ATK as follow-up bodies (Inferred)
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Adamancipator monsters and searchers (Mates, Crystal, Gallant Granite) to reach a Synchro or Link, using Ash, Ghost Belle or Infinite Impermanence to protect the first line (Inferred; no recorded boards)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold 6-card hands with 18 hand traps (P at least one in hand6 about 0.91) to negate the opponent's first summon or activation, then convert through Tiamite or Areadbhair (Inferred)
• Recovery: Recursion from GY through Mates and Crystal, plus Gallant Granite searches and Synchro re-summons (Inferred)
• After siding: None: the deck runs 0 side cards, so there is no post-side plan (data gap)

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a system: a 13-copy Adamancipator core gives about a 0.74 chance of at least one core card in the opening five, and the Synchro and Link extra deck (15 cards, 10 Synchro, 4 Link) gives it several ways to turn a starter into a 3000+ ATK body. It runs 18 hand traps, so a going-second hand has a high chance of holding an interaction piece, and the end board carries layered negation and removal. Its weaknesses are the absent side deck, which leaves no post-side plan, and the 32% exact archetype purity, with Koa'ki Meiru, Mulcharmy, Dragunity and Mannadium cards diluting the engine. No recorded boards, tournament data or guides exist, so the combo floor, median and matchup scores are Inferred or Provisional. The deck is Illegal as submitted (3 Ash Blossom against a limit of 2), so its contextual score is capped at 40 as a theoretical, structural-only read, and popularity did not earn any points.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 61, Going First ≈ 58, Going Second ≈ 65, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 52. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-8). Final formula: No reliable metagame, so Meta is provisional: raw 0.80*61 + 0.20*52 = 59, then modifier -8 gives 51, then the Illegal cap (theoretical/structural-only) sets the score to 40

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.74 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.26 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Redundant starters: 13 archetype core copies with excavation and searchers (Inferred)
• 18 hand traps give a high going-second interaction chance (Inferred)
• Four 3000+ ATK closing bodies in the Extra Deck (Verified stats)
• All 15 Extra slots used, covering Synchro, Link and XYZ options (Verified composition)

Weaknesses

• Illegal as submitted: Ash Blossom at 3 copies exceeds the OCG limit of 2 (Verified)
• No side deck, so no post-side plan in a best-of-3 setting (Verified)
• Low archetype purity (31.9%): sub-archetype and staple cards dilute the engine (Verified)
• No recorded boards, combos or guides to confirm the conversion line (Verified data gap)

Critical choke points

• Adamancipator Conductor, Analyzer, Seeker and Researcher are the only excavation starters; disruption to the core costs the Synchro route (Inferred)
• Ash Blossom and Ghost Belle are the main going-second protection; both are restricted or limited in count (Verified)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Ash Blossom at 3 copies exceeds the OCG Semi-Limited limit of 2; Main 57 and Extra 15 are within size rules; Side 0 is legal; Card stats and text for the Risen, Areadbhair, Nibiru and Visas Amritara bodies; Archetype purity 31.9% and 0 side cards
• Observed: No observed boards or win rates are available
• Inferred: P(at least one core card in hand5) about 0.74 from hypergeometric draws; P(at least one hand trap in hand6) about 0.91 for going second; Synchro and excavation plan sequencing
• Provisional: Meta Power (null); Matchup and format fit (D13)
• 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 absent No side deck: post-side plan cannot be scored No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN; going-first and going-second splits are Inferred Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck title is null
