Endymion Deck #768317 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 59 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion and Link Summon into Invoked or Magistus boss monsters (Hyperinvoked Aeon, Invoked Elysium, Zoroa the Magistus Verethragna) off Aleister, Magistus and Endymion engine starters; Witchcrafter Vice-Madame and Invoked De Anima board disruption, then recurring extra-deck fusions
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a starter from the Endymion, Magistus or Invoked core (about 0.78 chance of at least one core card in a 5-card hand, Inferred), search with Endymion Empire, Verre or Invocation, then Link or Fusion into a boss
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the 11 hand traps (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Ghost Ogre, Infinite Impermanence, Nibiru) to break the opponent's first engine, then rebuild through Mulcharmy and searchers
• Recovery: Searcher text (17 cards) and Aleister/Invocation graveyard recursion (Invocation, Verre Magic) to rebuild the starter after a hand trap or negation
• After siding: No side deck in the export (side_count 0), so no post-side plan can be evaluated

Why it scores here

The score comes from the deck as a system: the Endymion, Magistus and Invoked core and its 17 searcher effects give about a 0.78 chance of an engine starter in the opening hand (Inferred), and the 11 hand traps and 13 negation effects give real interruption resilience. Conversion into the 15-slot Extra Deck is plausible on paper, with Hyperinvoked Aeon, Invoked Elysium and Zoroa Verethragna as closers, but there are no recorded boards, so floor and median output stay low-confidence. Popularity did not earn points: the archetype core is present at 9 of 15 usage-listed cards, which confirms the list is real but does not make it strong. The deck is capped at 30 because it is illegal: Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization are each run 3 times against an OCG limit of 2, and no side deck is supplied. Scores were not averaged from individual card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo profile used for structural score; Midrange noted as secondary, not blended. Structural ≈ 53.5, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-12); unresolved_passcode (0); no_side_deck (0). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) = 51.8 before modifiers; modifiers -12; illegal cap applied, final 30 (theoretical/structural-only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.78 · 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 (17 cards) makes the Endymion/Magistus/Invoked starter reachable on most opening hands (Inferred)
• 11 hand traps and 13 negation-text cards give layered interruption
• Strong Extra-Deck closers at 2900 to 3800 ATK

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: two staples over the OCG copy limit
• No side deck supplied, so best-of-3 adaptability is unscored
• Low exact-archetype purity (8.1%) suggests the engine is spread across sub-archetypes and may conflict
• No recorded boards, so combo floor and median are unknown

Critical choke points

• Fusion and Link Summon of Aleister or Magistus monsters is needed for most lines; a single disrupted starter can end the turn
• Invocation and Aleister engine dependence on graveyard and banished cards

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 59 and Extra 15 are within OCG size limits; Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization are 3 copies against limit 2; Droll & Lock Bird and Harpie's Feather Duster are 1 copy, within limit 1; Extra Deck is 10 Fusion and 5 Link; Exact-name Endymion purity is 8.1%
• Inferred: P(>=1 archetype-core card in 5-card hand) = 0.78; Hand-trap density on going second gives P(>=1 in 6) = 0.73; Structural estimates on the Combo profile
• Provisional: Meta Power (null) and matchup fit (D13) need 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 per-pilot record absent No side deck in export (side_count 0) One passcode (86120751) could not be resolved to a card No win-rate, brick, or starter telemetry exists in YGOVN Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample
