Mekk-Knights Deck #768672 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 32/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 59 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion-summoned Shaddoll bosses (El Shaddoll Shekhinaga, Grysta, Anoyatyllis, Apkallone, Winda) reached through the Shaddoll Fusion spells (Inferred from card text; no recorded boards); Invoked Fusion/Link bodies (Invoked Elysium, Invoked Mechaba, Aleister the Invoker) as a second Fusion route (Inferred from card text)
• Turn 1 (going first): Search a Shaddoll Spell/Trap or monster (Shaddoll Hedgehog, Magical Meltdown, Invocation), then Fusion Summon through El Shaddoll Fusion or Shaddoll Fusion (Inferred; no recorded boards to verify the sequence)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Magical Meltdown/PSY-Framegear Gamma style interaction and Shaddoll flip monsters to answer the first board, then Fusion through the Extra Deck (Inferred; only one hand trap in the list)
• Recovery: Recycle from the GY: Shaddoll Falco, Reeshaddoll Wendi, Resh Shaddoll Incarnation and Shaddoll Construct return Shaddoll pieces or Fusion Summon from the GY (Inferred from card text)
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has 0 side cards, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The list is illegal as built: three copies of Allure of Darkness against a Limited limit of one, so under the rubric it is scored as theoretical/structural-only and capped low. Structurally the deck is a Shaddoll-based Midrange shell with 16 searcher-text cards and a 0.81 chance of at least one searcher in a going-first opener (Inferred), which supports engine access. Its ceiling rests on Shaddoll and Invoked Fusion bosses, but there are no recorded boards, so combo conversion and median output are text-only inferences and are kept near the middle. Brick risk is material: 23 Level-0 Spell/Trap cards, many flip monsters that need a flip or a GY trigger, and two unresolved passcodes counted as Main. The archetype label (Mekk-Knights) does not describe the list: 0 of 25 Mekk-Knights core cards are present, and Shaddoll accounts for 40 of 74 off-archetype copies. Popularity and archetype usage did not earn points, and card scores were not averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 46, Going First ≈ 44, Going Second ≈ 38, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: banlist exposure (over copy limit) (-8); engine conflicts (-4). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional); Illegal list, so the result is capped low and is theoretical/structural-only

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.81 · 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 (16 cards) gives an 81% chance of at least one searcher in a going-first opener (Inferred)
• Multiple Fusion-boss options with 2200 to 3200 ATK bodies (Verified stats)
• Several recursion and GY-trigger routes for Shaddoll pieces (Inferred from text)

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: 3 copies of Allure of Darkness against a limit of 1 (Verified)
• No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptation (Verified)
• Mixed engines (Shaddoll, Invoked, Mekk-Knight, Performage, PSY-Frame, Greed) dilute consistency (Inferred)
• Core archetype cards for the Mekk-Knights label are absent (0 of 25) (Verified)

Critical choke points

• Fusion Summon through El Shaddoll Fusion or Shaddoll Fusion, which both depend on Fusion Material from hand or field (Inferred)
• A single hand trap (PSY-Framegear Gamma, Limited at 1 copy) for going-second interaction (Verified)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Allure of Darkness 3 copies against a Limited limit of 1 (over limit); PSY-Framegear Gamma is Limited at 1 copy and runs 1 copy; Main 59, Extra 15, Side 0, all within the OCG size rules; 16 searcher-text, 1 hand-trap, 3 tech and 21 removal-text cards by text scaffold; Archetype usage: 0 of 25 core Mekk-Knights cards present
• Inferred: Going-first searcher access of about 0.81 from hypergeometric odds; Brick risk from Level-0 Spell/Trap density and flip-dependent monsters; Fusion-boss conversion and recursion routes from card text; Interaction density from removal and negation text
• Provisional: Median and floor output (no combos); Matchup and format fit (no tournament link or dated meta)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record are absent 2 passcodes in CardIDList could not be resolved to a card (counted as Main) No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN, so going-first/second and matchup signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
