Tellarknight Deck #769042 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Xyz Summon high-ATK Tellarknight/Constellar Xyz monsters (Constellar Ptolemy M7, Tellarknight Constellar Caduceus, Exstellarknight Ptolemy Ω7 in the Extra Deck) off the Constellar/Tellarknight search chain.; Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS and Number F0 Xyz monsters as late-game boss threats; Stellarknight Constellar Diamond and Delteros as removal-backed boards.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a searcher (Onomatopaira, Dodododo Warrior, Tellarknight Lyran, Constellar Castor) and build a Level 4 Xyz base; keep Ash Blossom or Ghost Ogre up for the first opponent response.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the 11 hand traps (Ash Blossom, Effect Veiler, Ghost Ogre, Droll & Lock Bird, Infinite Impermanence) to stop the opponent's board first, then rebuild the Xyz line from the GY and the search chain.
• Recovery: Recursion from the GY through Constellar Tellarknights, Constellar Caduceus and Satellarknight Altair/Unukalhai, plus Xyz material transfer by Ptolemy-type monsters.
• After siding: Not assessable: the deck runs no Side Deck (0 cards), so the best-of-3 plan has no sided adjustments.

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens an engine: the archetype core of 24 copies gives an estimated 95% chance of at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand, and the search chain (18 searcher-text cards) gives about 87% for at least one searcher (Inferred, hypergeometric). Its interaction is layered, with 11 hand traps and 17 negation-text cards that give the deck a reasonable answer to a first response. Its ceiling and median output cannot be measured because the evidence contains no recorded boards, so those scores are text-based estimates only. Popularity and archetype usage were not credited, and card scores were not averaged. The list is Illegal because Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring is run 3 times against an OCG limit of 2, so the final score is capped at 35 and this evaluation is structural and theoretical only.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Balanced (default, no recorded combos to break the strategy tie). Structural ≈ 61, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 66, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: Illegal copy-limit violation (-12); Banlist exposure (Limited/Semi-Limited cards) (-3). Final formula: Structural 61 (Balanced); unconstrained 0.80*61 + 0.20*45 ≈ 58, then capped at 35 because the deck is Illegal (Step 2). Score is theoretical/structural-only.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.95 · 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, redundant engine access: archetype core about 95% and searcher about 87% in an opening hand (Inferred).
• Layered hand-trap and negation package (11 hand traps, 17 negation-text cards) for going second.
• Several high-ATK Extra Deck bosses that give closing pressure.

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring is over the OCG copy limit (3 vs 2).
• Low archetype purity (7.1% exact name) with many off-archetype cards, so the engine is less coherent than the core count suggests.
• No Side Deck, which removes any post-side plan.
• No recorded boards, so the ceiling and median cannot be verified.

Critical choke points

• Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring copy limit: the list cannot be played until one copy is removed.
• The Constellar/Tellarknight search chain depends on a small number of searchers reached early.
• Going first with no hand trap in hand leaves the Xyz line open to a single disruption.

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring is run 3 copies against a legal limit of 2 (OCG Semi-Limited).; Main 55 and Extra 15 are inside the OCG size rules; Side 0 is legal.; Card text and stats for all listed cards are present in the evidence.; Droll & Lock Bird, Harpie's Feather Duster and Reinforcement of the Army are Limited and run at 1 copy each.; Only the Tellarknight exact name accounts for 5 of 70 copies; 65 are off-archetype.; No Side Deck is present.
• Inferred: Engine access: P(>=1 core in 5) ≈ 0.95; P(>=1 searcher in 5) ≈ 0.87.; Hand-trap availability going second: P(>=1 hand trap in 6) ≈ 0.76.; Interaction density and going-second strength read from card text.; Primary strategy as Combo with Toolbox and Midrange secondaries.
• Provisional: Meta Power and matchup fit (no dated meta sample or 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. No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN, so going-first/second, matchup and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown. Meta Power is Provisional because no dated metagame sample was supplied. Deck title is null; the deck is named only by its archetype.
