Artifact Deck #767616 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 56 / Extra 14 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra Deck boss monsters (Cyber Dragon Nova, Vallon, Number C101, Chimeratech fusions) reached through Cyber Dragon and K9 searches, with hand traps protecting the setup; Fusion and Link pressure from Chimeratech Rampage/Megafleet Dragon and Qliphort Genius
• Turn 1 (going first): Search a Cyber Dragon or Cyberdark starter with Cyber Dragon Core, Cyberdark Realm or Cyber Emergency, then extend into a Level 5 Xyz or Link line; keep Ash Blossom or Infinite Impermanence up for the opponent's first activation
• Turn 2 (going second): Open on a hand trap (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Nibiru, Infinite Impermanence) to blank the opponent's first board, then rebuild with a searcher and a Cyber Dragon special summon
• Recovery: Recover from GY through Cyberdark Claw, Ghost Belle and Cyber Dragon Herz recursion, plus Chimeratech special summons from the Extra Deck
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs no Side Deck cards

Why it scores here

The deck is evaluated as one system, not an average of its card scores: 67 of its 70 archetype-tagged copies are off-archetype, so the Artifact label earns no credit beyond the three Artifact Lancea copies. Its strongest read is interaction: 12 hand traps and 13 negation-text cards give layered answers, and searcher text on 24 cards makes at least one searcher in a 5-card opening hand about 95 percent likely (Inferred). Recorded combo data is absent, so the ceiling and floor are text-only inferences and carry low weight. The Structural score is 53 under the Toolbox profile, but the list is illegal: Ash Blossom and K9-17 Izuna are each run three times against a limit of two, so the Final score is capped at 30 as a theoretical, structural-only read. Side deck is empty, which removes any post-side plan and caps Tournament Reliability at 45.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox. Structural ≈ 53, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-6); no_side_deck (-4); unresolved_passcode (-2). Final formula: Illegal-list cap: 0.80*Structural(53) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) = 51.4; plus modifiers (-12) = 39.4; capped at 30 as theoretical/structural-only. Meta Power provisional (null).

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.95 · 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 hand-trap and negate coverage (12 hand traps, 13 negation-text cards)
• High searcher density (24 searcher-text cards) gives reliable starts
• Broad interaction package: Harpie's Feather Duster, Lightning Storm, Forbidden Droplet, Disablaster

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy counts for Ash Blossom and K9-17 Izuna
• Low archetype purity: 3 of 70 archetype-tagged copies are Artifact
• No side deck, so no post-side adaptation
• High singleton count and 56-card main reduce consistency and garnet density

Critical choke points

• Ash Blossom and K9-17 Izuna legality must be fixed before the list is playable
• Cyber Dragon starter access depends on a few single-copy searchers and Cyber Dragon Core/Cyberdark Realm

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: Ash Blossom and K9-17 Izuna each run 3 copies against a legal limit of 2 (OCG Semi-Limited); Main 56 and Extra 14 are within the OCG size rules (main 40-60, extra 0-15); Side deck count is 0; Usage stats show 3 of 5 core cards present
• Inferred: Searcher access probability ≈ 0.95 in a 5-card opening hand; Hand-trap coverage ≈ 0.78 at least one in a 6-card going-second hand; Interaction density high from negation and removal text; Off-archetype composition: 67 of 70 archetype-tagged copies
• Provisional: Meta and format fit (D13) is neutral pending a dated meta sample
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: floor, median and ceiling are text-only inferences No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent One main deck passcode (10443957) is unresolved No win-rate telemetry: going-first/second, matchup and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied No guides attached to the archetype
