Blackwings Deck #767415 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro beaters from the Extra Deck (Black-Winged Assault Dragon, Blackwing Full Armor Master, Bystial Dis Pater, Blackwing - Silverwind the Ascendant) enabled by Blackwing tuners; Chaos Angel and Blackwing - Boreastorm the Wicked Wind as extra synchro threats
• Turn 1 (going first): Small World or Black Whirlwind to search a Blackwing Tuner, summon Blackwing monsters from hand (Vata, Sudri, Harmattan, Bora), and Synchro Summon into a Blackwing Synchro Monster
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Droll & Lock Bird, D.D. Crow, Nibiru, Evenly Matched) to answer the opponent's board, then a Blackwing Synchro Summon from the remaining resources
• Recovery: Black Whirlwind and Shamal recover Blackwing monsters from the GY and banish; Blackwing - Zephyros the Elite revives itself once per Duel (Inferred from card text)
• After siding: None: the deck runs no Side Deck cards (side_count 0)

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a system: the Blackwing core (89% chance of at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand, Inferred) and the searcher text (72% chance of at least one searcher) give it a reasonably reliable T1 plan. Twelve hand traps and removal-text cards give it a strong going-second answer layer, and the Extra Deck offers several Synchro closers. The score is held down by the illegal list: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring is run three times against a limit of two, so the deck receives only a theoretical, structural-only score. Archetype popularity (Blackwing core at 59-66% usage) confirms the list is real and accessible, but it did not add points. No combo boards were supplied, so floor, median and ceiling are text-only inferences, and no side deck is present, which costs post-side adaptability. Card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 63, Going First ≈ 62, Going Second ≈ 68, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 55. Modifiers: banlist_exposure_over_limit (-5); no_side_deck (-2). Final formula: Illegal cap: min(0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers, 30). Uncapped = 0.80*62.6 + 0.20*55 - 7 = 54.1; capped at 30. Theoretical/structural-only; Meta Power provisional.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.89 · 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

• Blackwing core is accessible (about 89% core presence in opening hand, Inferred)
• Twelve hand traps and removal-text cards give a strong going-second answer layer
• Several high-ATK Synchro closers in the Extra Deck (Verified stats)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring at 3 copies vs a limit of 2
• Off-archetype cards: exact-name purity is 0%, with 25 generic and cross-archetype copies
• No Side Deck, so post-side adaptability is absent
• No combo boards supplied; the ceiling and median are text-only inferences

Critical choke points

• Blackwing Tuner availability for Synchro Summons (Vata, Sudri, Shamal, Sharnga)
• Ash Blossom over copy limit: legality must be fixed before any final score applies

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 within the OCG size rules; Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring copy violation (3 vs 2); Restricted-card legal copies match the banlist (Druiswurm, Magnamhut, Droll & Lock Bird, S:P Little Knight Limited 1; Super Polymerization Semi-Limited 2); Card stats and text excerpts from the evidence pack
• Observed: Blackwings usage: core cards at 50-66% inclusion across 13 stat rows
• Inferred: Core opening-hand presence 0.89 and searcher presence 0.72 (hypergeometric); Going-second answer density from 12 hand traps and 11 negation-text cards; Recovery path via Black Whirlwind and Shamal
• Provisional: Meta Power and D13 matchup fit: no dated metagame sample or tournament link
• Data gaps: no combos supplied: floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent no win-rate telemetry for going-first/second, matchup, brick or OTK rates Meta Power provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied no Side Deck present: post-side plan cannot be evaluated
