Hieratic Deck #767561 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: No single engine. Blue-Eyes (Blue-Eyes White Dragon, Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit Dragon route) and Bystial beatsticks close the game once the hand-trap and Solemn wall has held the board.; Mulcharmy draw-and-disruption loop with Pot of Sloth card advantage in long games.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Sage with Eyes of Blue or Maiden of White for a Tuner, Normal Summon, and hold Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, or Effect Veiler for the opponent's first engine. Pot of Sloth and Wishes for Eyes of Blue are the card-advantage backup.
• Turn 2 (going second): Six-card hand with 11 hand traps and Solemn Judgment, Solemn Warning, Harpie's Feather Duster, Lightning Storm, and Dominus Spark as interaction. Go for stability, then convert via the Blue-Eyes Tuner line.
• Recovery: Mulcharmy Fuwalos and Purulia draw when the opponent summons, and Branded Regained and Majesty of the White Dragons rebuild the board after a clean wipe.
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs zero side cards, so no post-side plan exists.

Why it scores here

This is an illegal list: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring is run three times against a limit of two, and The Bystial Lubellion three times against a limit of one, so the score is a structural read capped low and not a normal Final Contextual score. The structural read comes from the system as a whole rather than from averaging card scores: eleven hand traps and two Solemns give strong interaction and going-second resilience, while the Blue-Eyes and Bystial finishers supply closing power. The deck does not reliably open one functional plan, because the Blue-Eyes Tuner engine, the Bystial beatsticks, and the Mulcharmy draw cards are three separate partial engines with about 69 of 55 main-deck copies off the exact archetype name. Popularity or archetype label did not earn points: the Hieratic label matches one card, and no combo, win-rate, or tournament evidence exists to lift the score. The side deck is empty, so there is no post-side adaptation.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox primary with Stun secondary; disclosed as a judgment, not forced to a target score. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 46, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-2). Final formula: No reliable metagame, so Meta is provisional: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability = 0.80*52 + 0.20*45 = 50.6; after the -2 banlist modifier the pre-cap value is 48.6; capped at 30 for the Illegal legality status (theoretical/structural only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.69 · 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

• Eleven hand traps plus two Solemns and Harpie's Feather Duster give broad, layered interaction
• Going-second hand-trap coverage is strong (about 0.76 to have one in six cards)
• Multiple finisher routes (Blue-Eyes, Bystial, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit) allow recovery if one is stopped

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy counts for Ash Blossom and The Bystial Lubellion
• No single coherent engine: about 69 of 55 main copies are off the labeled archetype
• Empty side deck, so no post-side adaptation
• Brick risk from sub-archetype cards that need a partner

Critical choke points

• Legality: the list cannot be played as built until the copy-limit violations are fixed
• Blue-Eyes Tuner access depends on Sage, Maiden, or Wishes; without one, Neo Kaiser Sea Horse and Blue-Eyes White Dragon lines stall

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main deck 55, Extra 15, Side 0, all within OCG size rules; Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring 3 copies vs legal 2 (violation); The Bystial Lubellion 3 copies vs legal 1 (violation); Banlist statuses of Limited and Semi-Limited cards as listed in restricted_cards
• Observed: Usage stats show Blue-Eyes and Mulcharmy core cards at 100% inclusion in the archetype sample
• Inferred: Toolbox primary and Stun secondary classification from card text and composition; Consistency and brick estimates from hypergeometric probabilities; Going-second hand-trap coverage read; Dimension scores D1 through D14
• Provisional: Meta Power and D13 format fit (no dated metagame sample); Tournament reliability
• Data gaps: Deck title is null No combos supplied; combo floor, median, and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry in YGOVN Archetype label 'Hieratic' matches one card (1.4% purity); the true archetype is likely a multi-archetype toolbox Side deck is empty (side_count 0); post-side plan cannot be evaluated Meta Power is Provisional (no dated metagame sample)
