Jinzo Deck #768979 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 25/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 58 / Extra 13 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra-Deck boss pressure from Red-Eyes Black Fullmetal Dragon, Red-Eyes Flare Metal Dragon, First of the Dragonlords and Red-Eyes Black Dragon Exceed, reached through Max Metalmorph and Dark Time Wizard-linked searches (Inferred from card text; no recorded boards); Link-based board building (Underworld Goddess, Proxy F Magician, I:P Masquerena) to reach those bosses
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a searcher (Dark Time Wizard, Alligator's Dragon Knight, Metal Illusionist, Incoming Machine!) and build toward a Red-Eyes or Metalmorph boss; hand traps are held for the opponent's turn
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird and Evenly Matched to break the opponent's first combo, then continue with a Dark Time Wizard searcher line
• Recovery: Rebuild from the graveyard with Foolish Graverobber, Red-Eyes Black Dragon's GY search and Black Metal Dragon's GY search (Inferred from text)
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no side deck, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a system, not as an average of its cards. Searcher access is the strongest part: P(at least one of 15 searcher-text cards in a 5-card opening hand) is about 0.79, and the archetype core group is about 0.96 (Inferred). Interaction is dense, with 8 hand traps, 11 negation-text cards and 23 removal-text cards, so the deck can answer a first combo on either turn. Its ceiling is high on paper because it has several 3400 to 3700 ATK bosses, but there are no recorded boards, so the conversion and median scores are text-only estimates. The main weaknesses are structural: the 71 off-archetype copies spread across Dark Time Wizard, Red-Eyes, Metalmorph and Mulcharmy with no exact-name core, many 1-of cards that compete for the same slots, and no side deck. Popularity did not earn points: the archetype's usage statistics only confirm that this list is real and accessible. Because the list is Illegal (Ash Blossom 3 vs 2 copies, Droll & Lock Bird 2 vs 1), the Final score is capped at 25 and the evaluation is theoretical and structural-only.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox primary, Midrange secondary (approximately 80/20). Structural ≈ 50, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 48, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-6); engine conflicts (-3). Final formula: Illegal list: computed 0.80*Structural(50) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) + modifiers(-9) ≈ 40, capped to 25 under the illegal-deck rule; Meta Power provisional (null)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.79 · 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 access (15 searcher-text cards; P≈0.79 of at least one in opening 5)
• Broad interaction: 8 hand traps, 11 negation-text cards and 23 removal-text cards
• Strong Extra Deck boss pool (3400, 3700 and 2800 ATK monsters)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: two copy-limit violations
• No side deck (0 cards)
• Off-archetype spread with no exact-name core (0% purity); 1-of cards dilute consistency
• No recorded combos, so the ceiling and median are unverified

Critical choke points

• Max Metalmorph and Red-Eyes Black Dragon Exceed summon conditions
• The searcher chain through Dark Time Wizard and Alligator's Dragon Knight, which the list depends on for most lines
• A single unresolved passcode (74677422) counted as Main Deck but not identified

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 58, Extra 13, Side 0; both copy-limit violations (Ash Blossom 3 vs 2, Droll & Lock Bird 2 vs 1); Card text and stats for all resolved cards; Archetype composition: 0 exact-name Jinzo copies, 71 off-archetype copies; Usage statistics: 12 of 19 core cards present (63.2%)
• Inferred: Searcher access probabilities (P≈0.79 searcher in 5-card hand; core group ≈0.96); Hand-trap probability (P≈0.61 in a 6-card hand); Interaction quality from text (Ash, Droll, Evenly Matched, Forbidden Droplet, Dark Ruler No More); Ceiling and median estimates from card text, since no combos were recorded
• Provisional: Meta power (no dated metagame sample); Format fit and matchup coverage (no tournament link)
• 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 are absent One passcode (74677422) in CardIDList could not be resolved and is counted as Main Deck No win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick and starter rates) Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck has no side deck and no title
