Magistus Deck #768712 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 58 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion Summon Invoked and Magistus Fusion Monsters (e.g. Hyperinvoked Aeon, Invoked Elysium, Invoked Augoeides) off the Aleister and Invocation engine (Inferred from card text; no combo boards recorded); Link and board-control finishers (Endymion, Artemis, Aleister the Invoker of Madness) and hand-trap/removal disruption (Inferred)
• Turn 1 (going first): Search Aleister or Crowley with Aiwass / Aleister the Reminiscent / Invocation effects, then Fusion Summon via Invocation or Super Polymerization while hand traps protect the first Fusion (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Ash Blossom, D.D. Crow, Ghost Belle, Droll and Lock Bird) and Evenly Matched / Solemn Accusation to slow the opponent, then convert Aleister-based Fusion into a board (Inferred)
• Recovery: Recursion via Aleister and Invocation text in the GY and banish zone, plus Mulcharmy draw effects, to rebuild a hand after disruption (Inferred)
• After siding: None: the deck runs no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan (Verified from legality data)

Why it scores here

The deck's engine is a 58-card main built around Aleister searchers and Invocation Fusion access; the probability model puts the searcher group at about 0.84 for at least one in a 5-card opening hand, and the archetype core at about 0.67, so the engine is usually reachable (Inferred). Interaction is dense, with 11 hand traps and 24 removal-text cards, which lifts the endboard score. Conversion and floor are held down because no combo boards were recorded, so the ceiling and median are text-only estimates and no ceiling is reported as an average. Popularity and usage (Crowley and Mulcharmy are high-inclusion) confirm the list is real, not that it is strong, and no card scores were averaged. The list is illegal for OCG (two cards over the Semi-Limited copy limit), so the score is capped at a theoretical, structural-only read and the Meta Power stays provisional.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 47, Going First ≈ 48, Going Second ≈ 42, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: Illegal list cap (-9); Banlist exposure (-4); No side deck (-3). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability = 0.80*47 + 0.20*40 = 45.6, then context modifiers (-7) gives 39 uncapped; Illegal cap sets final to 30 (theoretical / structural-only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.84 · 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 density (17 searcher-text cards) makes the Aleister engine usually reachable on the first turn (Inferred)
• Heavy interaction package with 11 hand traps and 12 negation-text cards (Inferred)
• Multiple Fusion Summon routes and Extra Deck options (12 Fusion, 3 Link) give flexibility (Inferred)

Weaknesses

• Illegal under OCG copy limits: Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization are over the Semi-Limited limit (Verified)
• No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptation in best-of-3 (Verified)
• Low exact-name archetype purity (4.1%) with 70 off-archetype copies, so the engine is spread across sub-archetypes (Verified)
• No recorded combo boards, so floor, median and ceiling are unmeasured (Verified gap)

Critical choke points

• Aleister monsters: the engine needs an Aleister to Fusion Summon, and Aleister-count is the hard requirement (Inferred)
• Super Polymerization and Invocation: both are needed to reach Fusion boards and both are copy-limited in OCG (Verified)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization run 3 copies against an OCG Semi-Limited limit of 2 (Illegal); Deck has 0 side cards; Exact-name archetype purity 4.1%; 1 unresolved passcode (86120751); Searcher text count 17, hand-trap count 11, removal-text count 24; Usage: Crowley (93.75%) and Mulcharmy Fuwalos (87.5%) are core and present
• Observed: Usage stats show 5 of 24 core cards present (20.8% core coverage)
• Inferred: P(>=1 searcher in 5-card hand) ~0.84 from hypergeometric estimate; Engine reachability and going-first/second plans from card text; Interaction quality read from hand-trap and negation text; Brick-risk estimate from copy histogram and level-0 spell count
• Provisional: Meta Power (null: no dated meta sample); Matchup and format fit (no tournament link or dated meta)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent 1 passcode (86120751) in CardIDList could not be resolved to a card and is counted as main No win-rate telemetry: going-first/second, matchup, brick and starter rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck title is null
