Familiar-Possessed Deck #767847 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 31/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 51 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra Deck Fusion/Link boards per card text (e.g. Azamina Moa Regina, Possessed Destiny - Wynn, Golden Allure Queen); no recorded boards to confirm; Familiar-Possessed Fusion and Link pressure from Charmer/Possessed searches; not verified by any combo data
• Turn 1 (going first): Searcher chain (Spirit Charmers, Spellbook of Secrets, Spiritual Art Familiars) into Charmer/Possessed Fusion or Link extension; hand-trap protection is limited to whatever is drawn
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Infinite Impermanence, Nibiru) to disrupt the opposing starter, then rebuild through searchers
• Recovery: Searchers (17 searcher-text cards) and Spellbook/Charmer recursion from GY, per card text; unverified in play
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no Side Deck (side_count 0)

Why it scores here

This list is Illegal (Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring run 3 copies against a limit of 2), so the score is a theoretical, structural-only read and not a normal contextual score. The deck reliably opens searchers: 17 searcher-text cards give about 88% odds of at least one in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred). Its core Familiar-Possessed engine has only 3 exact-name copies and about 42% odds of appearing in the opening hand, so the engine it is built around is often a brick. The list is spread across roughly 18 archetype families with 4.5% exact-name purity, which weakens engine cohesion and is the main reason it does not score higher. Interaction is the strongest part of the system: 10 hand traps and several negation or removal effects give about 75% odds of a hand trap when going second (Inferred). Popularity and archetype usage did not earn points, and no card scores were averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary; Toolbox secondary noted only as context, not blended. Structural ≈ 44, Going First ≈ 40, Going Second ≈ 45, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: Illegal copy-limit violation (-7); Engine conflicts and low purity (-5). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional); illegal-list cap applied via modifiers

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.42 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.58 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Strong searcher density (17 searcher-text cards) gives reliable access to pieces
• Broad interaction package: 10 hand traps and several negation or removal effects, with about 75% odds of a hand trap when going second
• Extra Deck covers both Fusion and Link routes with several boss-level monsters

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring exceeds the OCG copy limit
• Core Familiar-Possessed engine is accessible in only about 42% of opening hands
• Low archetype purity and many overlapping sub-archetypes weaken cohesion
• No Side Deck, so no post-side plan

Critical choke points

• Familiar-Possessed core (5 copies) is the main engine and is often absent from the opening hand
• Ash Blossom copy count is over the limit and must be cut before the list is legal

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 51, Extra 15, Side 0; Main and Extra sizes are within rule limits; Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring runs 3 copies against a Semi-Limited maximum of 2 (Illegal); Exact-name archetype purity is 4.5%
• Inferred: Searcher access ≈ 0.88 in 5-card hand; Familiar-Possessed core access ≈ 0.42 in 5-card hand; Going-second hand-trap coverage ≈ 0.75; Interaction quality and recovery are semantic reads of card text
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit and tournament reliability
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median, and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN; going-first, going-second, and matchup figures are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck is Illegal, so no normal contextual score is valid
