Dinomist Deck #768075 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 25/100 (±10 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 54 / Extra 17 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra Deck boss or link threat (Perfectron Hydradrive Dragon, Ignister Prominence, Majespecter Draco - Ryu) after Pendulum-zone searches; Pendulum and Majespecter board pressure through Majespecter Unicorn - Kirin and Majespecter Tempest
• Turn 1 (going first): Pendulum Summon Dracoslayer or Majespecter Pendulums, search with Majespecter Raccoon - Bunbuku / Crow - Yata / Fox - Kyubi, then link or synchro into a board
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring, Infinite Impermanence, Maxx C and Nibiru to interact, then rebuild through Pendulum searches
• Recovery: Pendulum searches (about 23 searcher-text cards) and Pot of Prosperity / Chronograph Sorcerer to rebuild the hand; no combo data supports a specific recovery line
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has 0 side cards, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck's score is limited by legality, not by its structure: it runs two Forbidden Extra Deck cards (Borreload Savage Dragon, Baronne de Fleur) and 17 Extra Deck cards against a 15-card OCG cap, so it is capped at 25 and the score is theoretical/structural only. Structurally, the Pendulum searcher density (about 23 searcher-text cards, P(at least one searcher in a 5-card hand) ≈ 0.95, Inferred) gives reasonable engine access, and the five hand traps plus Majespecter Tempest, Crossout Designator and negation text give real interaction on the going-second side. Consistency is held back by low copy depth (21 singleton slots), a 0% exact-name archetype purity (71 off-archetype copies spread across Majespecter, Dracoslayer, Vaylantz and generic cards) and an empty side deck. No recorded boards, tournament data or win-rate telemetry exist, so median output, closing power and matchup fit are Inferred or Provisional. The score does not come from averaging card scores or from the Dinomist archetype's popularity; it reflects the system as built, which is structurally playable but not legal to run as submitted.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 51, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 55, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: Banlist exposure (-8); Legality cap (Illegal) (0). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) = 0.80*50.6 + 0.20*45 ≈ 49.5, then modifiers -8 → 41.5, then legality cap (Illegal) → 25

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.26 · 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

• Dense searcher text (about 23 cards) gives high access to Pendulum and Majespecter pieces
• Five hand traps plus Majespecter Tempest, Crossout Designator and Nibiru give layered interaction
• Main Deck fits within the 40–60 size rule at 54 cards

Weaknesses

• Illegal as submitted: 17 Extra Deck cards against a 15-card cap
• Two Forbidden Extra Deck cards (Borreload Savage Dragon, Baronne de Fleur)
• No side deck, so no post-side adaptation
• Low archetype purity (0% exact name) and 21 singleton slots reduce repeatability

Critical choke points

• Extra Deck legality: removing two Extra cards to reach 15 is required before the deck is playable
• Pendulum-zone pairs gate most engine lines; losing both Pendulum zones removes the main searcher loop

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main Deck 54 cards, Extra Deck 17 cards, Side 0 (legality export); Borreload Savage Dragon and Baronne de Fleur are Forbidden with 0 legal copies; Astrograph Sorcerer, Crossout Designator, Pot of Prosperity and other Limited cards are at 1 copy (legal); Card text for hand traps, searchers and removal (text_role_hints)
• Observed: Usage statistics available; 10 of 25 archetype core cards present (40%)
• Inferred: P(≥1 searcher in 5-card hand) ≈ 0.95 (hypergeometric); Engine accessibility and brick risk from copy histogram and core-group probability; Going-second interaction value from hand-trap density
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup and format fit (no tournament link)
• 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 exists in YGOVN — going-first/second, matchup, brick/starter/OTK rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck has no title and no side deck
