Forbidden Deck #768055 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 20/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 57 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Five-piece Exodia hand win (Exodia the Forbidden One plus four Forbidden One pieces), with Obliterate!!! Blaze and The Unstoppable Exodia Incarnate as the Exodd and Exodia finishers; Board takeover through Fusion, Link and Synchro summons (Psychic End Punisher, Black Luster Soldier, Snake-Eyes Doomed Dragon, Predaplant Dragostapelia)
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Millennium searchers and Mulcharmy draw engines, then build toward a Forbidden One hand or an Exodd/Exodia board; hand traps are held for the opponent's first summon
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Solemn Strike and Harpie's Feather Duster to answer the opponent's first board, then rebuild through Millennium Ankh and Heart of the Blue-Eyes
• Recovery: Heart of the Blue-Eyes and Sengenjin/Shield searchers return the engine from the GY, and Mulcharmy draws refill the hand after interaction is spent; the Exodia line has no recovery if a piece is lost
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan; this is a structural gap, not a neutral result

Why it scores here

This OCG list is illegal as submitted: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring and Super Polymerization are each run three times against a Semi-Limited limit of two, so the normal Final Contextual score is capped and this evaluation is theoretical/structural only. The structural read comes from the system as a whole: the Millennium/Mulcharmy draw-and-search base keeps the hand functional, six hand traps and Solemn Strike give the deck real interaction density, and the Exodia and Exodd finishers give it a closing route that does not depend on the board. The weak points are the 72 off-archetype copies with no exact-name purity, the 15 tech and hand-trap slots that crowd the main, the single-copy Exodia pieces that make the finisher fragile, and the absence of any Side Deck. No combo boards, tournament link, or win-rate data exist, so the floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference and Meta Power stays provisional. The score comes from consistency and interaction on the system, not from averaging card scores or from the archetype's usage stats.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 48, Going First ≈ 45, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (copy-limit violations) (-6); unrecoverable choke point (-3); no Side Deck (-3). Final formula: Uncapped: 0.80*Structural(48) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(40) + Modifiers(-12) = 34; illegal-list cap applied, so the reported final is 20 (theoretical only). Meta provisional.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.74 · 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 interaction: six hand traps, three Ash Blossoms, three Solemn Strikes and a spread of backrow and removal
• Searcher density (13 copies) keeps the Millennium engine reachable
• Two independent win routes: the Exodia hand win and the fusion/link board

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy counts for Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization
• No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptability
• Single-copy Exodia pieces make the finisher fragile
• Heavy off-archetype spread (72 copies) dilutes engine coherence

Critical choke points

• Losing any one of the five Forbidden One pieces ends the Exodia route
• Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization copy overflow must be corrected before the list is playable

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 57, Extra 15, Side 0 are within the OCG size rules; Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization are each run 3 copies against a Semi-Limited limit of 2; Extra Deck is 9 Fusion, 5 Link, 1 Synchro
• Inferred: Starter access is roughly 0.74 for the searcher group in a 5-card opening hand; Interaction density is high from card text, six hand traps and three Ash Blossoms; Floor and median output cannot be measured and are inferred from the shell; Exodia reliability is limited by five single-copy pieces
• Provisional: Meta Power and format fit, pending a dated metagame sample
• Data gaps: No combos supplied; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link; archetype meta-share and pilot match record are absent No win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchups, brick rate or starter rate No Side Deck registered Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample
