Nekroz Deck #768286 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 20/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 56 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Xyz Summon from the 15-card Extra Deck (Number, Zoodiac, Kaiju-adjacent and Dark Armed bosses) backed by Ritual Summons of LIGHT Ritual Monsters such as Saffira and Sauravis (Inferred from card text); Ritual Summon Saffira or Skull Guardian via Prayers of the Voiceless Voice and Lo as tribute (Inferred from card text)
• Turn 1 (going first): Open on a searcher (Mystical-style Ritual Spell/Monster search via Manju, Chalice, Small World or Blessing) and aim for one Ritual or Xyz line; no recorded boards to confirm (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold a hand trap or negate (Effect Veiler, Skull Meister, Ghost Ogre, Artifact Lancea) for the opponent's first summon, then convert through a Ritual or Xyz follow-up (Inferred)
• Recovery: Recover via Blessing of the Voiceless Voice, Radiance of the Voiceless Voice and Barrier of the Voiceless Voice retrieving Voiceless Voice cards from GY or banish (Inferred)
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan; the list cannot adapt between games (Verified gap)

Why it scores here

Scored as a connected system, not as an average of its cards. The deck can reach strong Extra Deck bosses (Jizukiru, Number C32, Number 32, Dark Armed) and has real interaction density, with 18 negation-text cards, 21 removal-text cards and 12 hand-trap or tech monsters. Its engine is split across five sub-archetypes (Voiceless Voice, Kaiju, Zoodiac, Number, Lswarm) with no Nekroz card present, so starter access is only about 0.25 for any 3-copy starter in a 5-card opener and the deck has no usage-stat core to anchor it. The list is illegal (Saffira at 4 copies and Pre-Preparation of Rites at 2 copies against limits of 3 and 1), so under the rubric it is capped to a theoretical score. No combo boards, guides, tournament link or side deck were supplied, which keeps confidence Low. Popularity and the Nekroz title were not credited.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox primary, Combo secondary (ratio not disclosed). Structural ≈ 43.7, Going First ≈ 42, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 30. Modifiers: banlist / copy-limit exposure (-9); no side deck (-3). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural(43.7) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(30) = 40.96; modifiers total -12 gives 28.96 (~29); Illegal-deck cap applied, so final = 20 (theoretical/structural only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.25 · 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 negation and hand-trap package (18 negation-text, 12 hand-trap/tech monsters)
• Several high-ATK Extra Deck bosses (Jizukiru 3300, Number C32 3100)
• Heavy searcher density (21 cards) for consistency of finding pieces

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Saffira 4 of 3 and Pre-Preparation 2 of 1
• No side deck
• Engine split across five sub-archetypes with no Nekroz core; name does not match content
• Many singletons and off-archetype copies raise brick risk

Critical choke points

• Single-copy Pre-Preparation is needed for the Ritual Spell search and cannot be run as 2 copies
• Ritual Summon depends on Lo or a Ritual Spell in hand, so starter-less hands stall

Recommended changes

• Inferred: Starter access ~0.25 for 3-copy starters in opening 5 (hypergeometric); Consistency, brick, and going-second read from card text and probabilities; Strategy classification as Toolbox with Combo secondary; Plans and recovery lines from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power (null, no dated sample); Matchup and format-fit score (D13)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick/starter rates) Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample Deck title is null and the Nekroz archetype label has no matching cards No guides for the archetype (guides_evidence total 0)
