Predaplant Deck #767742 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 47 / Extra 18 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion Summon DARK Predaplant boss monsters (Triphyoverutum, Dragostapelia, Chimerafflesia, Ambulomelides) from a Predator-Counter engine, with Starving Venom Predapower as a negate-and-attack finisher.; Synchro beatdown via Bal Teah and Black Rose Dragon, plus Starving Venom Wing Dragon's pendulum-assisted fusion route.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open with a Predap or Predaplant starter (Ophrys Scorpio, Longinephila, Byblisp, Lilizard) that searches a Polymerization/Fusion Spell, then fuse into a Predaplant boss while holding Ash or Infinite Impermanence for the opponent's answer.
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash/Dominus/Grisaille and use the 6-card hand to stop the first search or Fusion, then rebuild from Byblisp and Predaprimitive recursion in the GY.
• Recovery: Recover from a disrupted board by Special Summoning Byblisp from the GY while a Predator-Counter monster is on the field, then re-run Polymerization or Predaprimitive for a new boss.
• After siding: No side deck is registered (side 0), so there is no post-side plan to evaluate; post-side performance is unknown.

Why it scores here

This list is Illegal in OCG: three copies each of Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring and Dominus Impulse exceed their Semi-Limited limit of two, and the Extra Deck holds 18 cards against a maximum of 15, so the normal Final Contextual score is replaced by a low theoretical cap. The structural read rests on the Predaplant core: 21 core-named copies give P(at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand) ≈ 0.96, and 12 searchers give ≈ 0.79 (Inferred). Interaction is dense (6 hand traps, 13 negation texts, 17 removal texts), which lifts the going-second and interaction dimensions. Combo conversion and median output are text-only inferences because the deck has no recorded boards, so those scores carry wide uncertainty. Side deck is empty and no meta or tournament data exists, so Meta Power is null and matchup fit is provisional; popularity and archetype usage were not treated as power.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 61.5, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: Banlist exposure (-6); Extra Deck size violation (-6). Final formula: Illegal cap: 0.80*Structural(61.5) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) + Modifiers(-12) = 46 before cap; capped to 35 as theoretical-only because the list is Illegal

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.96 · 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

• Core engine is dense: 21 Predaplant-family copies and 12 searchers give high opening access (Inferred)
• Interaction depth: 6 hand traps and multiple negate/removal texts (Verified text)
• Multiple high-ATK fusion finishers in the Extra Deck (Verified stats)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: copy limits and Extra Deck size are both violated (Verified)
• Extra Deck overflow means three slots must be cut before the deck can be played
• No side deck, so no post-side adaptability

Critical choke points

• Polymerization-family access: Polymerization, Super Polymerization and Predaprimitive carry most of the fusion route
• Ash/Dominus protection for the first starter

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: 3 copies each of Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring and Dominus Impulse vs legal 2; Extra Deck 18 > 15; Main Deck 47 cards; Side 0; 24 distinct main cards; Card text for hand traps, negation and removal counts from the evidence pack
• Inferred: Core open probability ≈ 0.96 and searcher ≈ 0.79 (hypergeometric); Going-second hand-trap estimate ≈ 0.58; Combo ceiling from card text (no boards); Consistency and brick estimates
• Provisional: Meta Power is null; Matchup fit and side deck adaptability
• 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 win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick/starter rates) Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample No side deck registered, so post-side plans cannot be assessed
