Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Synchro boards built from X-Saber and Saber Synchro monsters (Psychic Blaster Mk-II, Virtual World Kyubi, Zalen, Wolfrayet, Gottoms, Souza) with Ash Blossom and Infinite Impermanence protecting the line (Inferred from text and composition); Synchro attack pressure from Gottoms x2 and Souza (Inferred)
  • Turn 1 (going first): T1 Normal Summon Pellina or Bruno, then build a Synchro with an X-Saber body while holding a hand trap for the opponent's first response (Inferred)
  • Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash, Infinite Impermanence, Ghost Ogre or Droll to answer the opponent's first board, then Synchro through the remaining monsters (Inferred)
  • Recovery: Ragigura and Darksoul recover X-Saber monsters from the GY and the searchers refill the hand; Gottoms' Second Call revives GY monsters (Inferred)
  • After siding: Not evaluable: side_count is 0, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The score comes from the deck as a system: its Synchro engine of two Starter types (Pellina and Bruno, six copies, about 58% chance of at least one in a 5-card opening hand under hypergeometric estimates) and its searcher density (15 copies, about 92% chance of at least one in a 5-card hand) give it reasonable access and recovery, and its hand traps and Spell/Trap negation give it interaction on the board. Ten hand traps and thirteen tech cards in 40 main deck slots raise brick and dead-card risk, and the Roid, Synchron, Virtual World and Rose Dragon splash dilutes engine coherence (exact-name purity is only 20%). The deck has no combo boards, no side deck and no tournament record, so the floor, median and ceiling are text-only inferences and the score is theoretical and structural only. Popularity and archetype stats were not used as evidence: the one core card (M-X-Saber Invoker, 66% inclusion) is missing, and no card scores were averaged into the deck score. The list is Illegal (three copies of a Semi-Limited card), so the score is capped low and carries a Low confidence.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 55 P(≥1 Pellina or Bruno in 5-card hand) ≈ 0.58 from six copies; searcher density 15 copies at ≈0.92 P(≥1 in hand5) (Inferred)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 40 10 hand traps and 13 tech cards in 40 main slots raise dead-card and brick risk; P(≥1 hand trap in going-second hand6) ≈ 0.85 (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 45 No parseable combo boards; ceiling read from card text only (Synchro into Gottoms, Psychic Blaster, Kyubi) (Inferred)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 35 No recorded boards, so median output cannot be measured; text-only estimate with low weight (Provisional)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 50 Three Ash, three Ghost Ogre and one Droll give repeatable disruption; Ragigura and Gottoms' Second Call give recursion routes (Inferred)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 60 Searchers (Bruno, Ragigura, Darksoul, Garsem, Tenki, Small World) and GY recursion refill the hand (Inferred from card text)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 62 Saber Hole, XX-Saber Hyunlei (destroys up to three S/T), Zalen and Navy Dragon Mech negate, Mist Wurm bounces three cards (Inferred from text)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 60 Going-second hand6 has about 85% chance of a hand trap, plus Psychic Blaster Mk-II (3200 ATK) and Souza as board-breakers (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 62 High-ATK Synchro finishers: Psychic Blaster 3200, Gottoms 2600 (x2), Kyubi 2800, Zalen 2800 (Verified stat, Inferred closing)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 45 40 main with ten 3-copy slots and ten singletons; 20 distinct cards with only 20% exact archetype purity (Verified composition, Inferred efficiency)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 55 14 Synchro and 1 Xyz; the Xyz (M-X-Saber Invoker) is missing despite 66% archetype inclusion (Verified usage stat)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 15 side_count is 0, so there is no side deck and no post-side plan (Verified)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 40 No tournament link, no dated metagame sample and no win rates; matchup fit cannot be assessed (Provisional)
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 50 Many hand-trap timing decisions and two Synchro chains per turn; moderate decision load (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 49.8, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 38. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-10); engine_conflict_splash (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional; Illegal, so theoretical/structural only; 0.80*49.8 + 0.20*38 - 12 = 35.4)

Probability & combo summary

  • Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.58 · 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

  • Starter access from six Synchro-engine monsters (Pellina, Bruno) plus a 15-copy searcher package
  • Dense hand-trap and negate suite (Ash, Infinite Impermanence, Ghost Ogre, Droll, Saber Hole, Zalen, Navy Dragon Mech)
  • High-ATK Synchro finishers with multiple Synchro routes

Weaknesses

  • Illegal list: Ash Blossom is run at 3 copies against an OCG limit of 2
  • Ten hand traps and thirteen tech cards in 40 slots cause brick and dead-card risk
  • No side deck, so no post-side plan
  • Engine splash across five sub-archetypes; exact X-Saber purity 20%
  • Missing core card (M-X-Saber Invoker, 66% usage inclusion)

Critical choke points

  • Pellina or Bruno as the single engine starter on T1
  • The 2-copy Ash limit: the third copy makes the list illegal
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 1 copy of Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring a legal non-hand-trap Main Deck card from the owner's pool (for example a second engine starter) Restores legality (OCG limit 2); the list is otherwise a plausible Synchro midrange shell
2 1 tech card or hand trap M-X-Saber Invoker (Xyz slot), if the owner wants the archetype-standard core Adds the 66%-inclusion core card and removes one dead-card risk; Inferred from usage stat
3 none a 10–15 card side deck Side deck is 0, so there is no post-side plan for best-of-3 play (D12 is 15)

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Illegal: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring at 3 copies against OCG limit 2 (Semi-Limited); Main 40 and Extra 15 are within OCG size limits; side is 0; Copy histogram: ten singletons and ten 3-copy cards; Hypergeometric draw tables (3-copy hand5 = 0.3376, hand6 = 0.3943); M-X-Saber Invoker 66.7% inclusion, 0 copies in this list
  • Inferred: Starter access (≈0.58 for Pellina or Bruno in hand5); Searcher density (≈0.92 P(≥1) in hand5); Going-second hand-trap coverage (≈0.85); Interaction and closing read from card text; Strategy and engine classification
  • Provisional: Meta Power (null) and D13 matchup fit: no dated metagame sample or tournament link
  • Data gaps: No combos supplied; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and pilot records are absent No win-rate telemetry; going-first, going-second and matchup rates are unknown No side deck, so post-side performance cannot be assessed Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample Illegal list: the score is theoretical and structural only
