Tellarknight Deck #767974 — 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 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Xyz Summon Constellar and Tellarknight Xyz monsters from the Extra Deck (Constellar Ptolemy M7, Tellarknight Constellar Delteros, Constellar Pleiades, Stellarknight Constellar Diamond) built off a Level 4 Constellar/Tellarknight starter chain (Inferred); Hand-trap and negation-based interaction (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Ghost Belle, Nibiru, Forbidden Droplet) protecting the Xyz board (Inferred)
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Constellar Castor, Tellarknight Cygnian, Mulcharmy or Dododo starter and search a Constellar or Tellarknight Xyz material chain (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Nibiru, Droll and Lock Bird) to interrupt the opponent's board, then Xyz Summon off the remaining starter (Inferred)
• Recovery: Recover searchers and Xyz materials from the GY via Constellar Caduceus, Tellarknight Constellar Caduceus and Gagagaga Girl effects (Inferred)
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs no Side Deck (0 of 15 slots), so no post-side plan exists

Why it scores here

This deck is scored as a system, not as an average of its card scores, and its legality caps the result. Illegal: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring runs 3 copies against a Semi-Limited limit of 2, so the final score is a structural-only cap rather than a normal contextual score. Structurally, the deck reliably reaches a starter: the archetype core is 25 copies with about 0.96 chance of at least one in an opening 5-card hand (Inferred), and Constellar Castor, Tellarknight Cygnian and Mulcharmy give several redundant starters. Its ceiling comes from Xyz finishers at 2500-2700 ATK, and interaction is layered through several hand traps and negations (Inferred). The median output and the going-second board-breaking read are Inferred from text only, because no recorded boards exist. Popularity did not earn points: the Tellarknight archetype stats (11 of 25 core cards present) were used only to check the list, not to raise the score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo profile with D13 dropped and remaining weights re-normalized to 97 (meta-neutral). Structural ≈ 60, Going First ≈ 62, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-4); illegal deck cap (-19). Final formula: Illegal list: theoretical/structural-only. Structural 60 (meta-neutral); 0.80*60 + 0.20*50 = 58, banlist modifier -4 gives 54, then capped low to 35 under the Illegal rule

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.96 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.04 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Redundant Constellar and Tellarknight starters with about 0.96 chance of at least one core card in opening 5 (Inferred)
• Layered hand-trap and negation interaction, with 16 hand traps and negation text (Inferred)
• Xyz finishers reach 2500-2700 ATK (Verified stat)

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy count: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring at 3 copies against a limit of 2 (Verified)
• No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptability (Verified)
• Low archetype coherence: only 2 of 70 Main Deck copies carry the exact Tellarknight name (Verified)
• Missing 14 of 25 archetype-core cards, including Constellar Caduceus (Tellarknight), Stellarknight Constellar Diamond and Constellar Pleiades (Verified usage stats)

Critical choke points

• A single Xyz Summon route for each finisher depends on the starter chain surviving a hand trap (Inferred)
• Ash Blossom over-limit makes the list illegal before any play-skill question arises (Verified)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring runs 3 copies against a Semi-Limited limit of 2 (illegal); Main Deck is 55 cards and Extra Deck is 15 cards, within OCG size rules; Droll and Lock Bird, Reinforcement of the Army and Solemn Judgment are Limited at 1 copy each (legal); Usage stats: 11 of 25 archetype-core cards present
• Observed: Core archetype cards: 11 of 25 present (usage_statistics)
• Inferred: Starter access about 0.96 for the archetype core group (hypergeometric); Hand-trap density gives about 0.89 chance of an interruption on going-second (hypergeometric); Xyz engine conversion and interaction layering from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power (null, no dated metagame sample); Matchup and format fit (D13 dropped from structural)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent No win-rate telemetry for going-first/second, matchup, brick or OTK rates Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck has no title and no Side Deck, so post-side and some counts are unverifiable
