Exosister Deck #769082 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Stun
• 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: Exosister Xyz boards (Exosisters Magnifica 2800 ATK, Karmael 2600 ATK, Mikailis 2500 ATK) built from Exosister starters and the Elis/Martha/Pax/Betrayal engine.; Ecclesia and the Dark Dragon / Super Starslayer TY-PHON / Divine Arsenal ZEUS single-copy Extra Deck finishers; the Albion fusion line is not playable because Albion is Forbidden.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Exosister Elis or Martha (about 25% per 3-copy card in a 5-card hand), search with Exosister Betrayal or Pax, then build an Exosister Xyz from the Extra Deck.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the six-card hand to present hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Maxx C, Droll & Lock Bird, Infinite Impermanence) against the opponent's first summon or search, then rebuild the Exosister engine.
• Recovery: Pot of Prosperity and Exosister Irene/Sophia draw, and Exosister Returnia (800 LP) banishes a blocker while rebuilding the Xyz board.
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered, so no post-side plan exists; best-of-3 play is unsupported as built.

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a system: Exosister starters (Elis, Martha, Pax, Betrayal) have about a 95% chance of at least one core-group card in a 5-card opening hand (proxy, Inferred), so the Xyz engine is usually reachable. Its interaction suite (12 hand traps, about 15 negation-text cards, Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Maxx C, Droll & Lock Bird) gives it real end-board and going-second strength. Pulling the score down are a heavy off-archetype main deck (exact-name Exosister purity 38.6%), no Side Deck, LP-heavy costs, and no recorded boards or tournament data to measure a median or ceiling. The deck is Illegal because Albion the Branded Dragon is Forbidden and was run at one copy, so the Final score is capped at 30 and the evaluation is structural-only; popularity in the archetype statistics confirmed the core cards but earned no points, and card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 54, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 42. Modifiers: Banlist exposure: Albion the Branded Dragon (Forbidden) (-6). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability = 0.80*54 + 0.20*42 = 51.6, minus 6 banlist modifier = 45.6; Illegal cap applied (Albion Forbidden, 1 copy) → 30, structural-only theoretical score

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

• Exosister engine has high starter density (9 Exosister monsters in the Main Deck, 3-copy Elis/Martha/Pax/Betrayal)
• Strong interaction suite: 12 hand traps and about 15 negation-text cards
• Extra Deck is full with several 2500+ ATK Xyz finishers

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: Albion the Branded Dragon is Forbidden
• No Side Deck, so no best-of-3 adaptability
• Low archetype purity (38.6%) and many off-archetype copies dilute the engine

Critical choke points

• Exosister starters needed before any Xyz summon
• Albion (Forbidden) is an Extra Deck slot with no legal replacement in the list

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Albion the Branded Dragon is Forbidden with 0 legal copies and 1 copy run; size is 55/15/0 within limits; Composition counts: 33 distinct Main, 11 distinct Extra, 38.6% exact-name Exosister purity, 13 Xyz in Extra; Usage stats: Exosister core cards (Elis 94.7%, Martha 92.1%, Pax 86.8%) confirm the archetype core
• Inferred: Engine accessibility from hypergeometric odds (P ≈ 0.25 per 3-copy card; core-group proxy 0.95); Interaction density and going-second hand-trap coverage from card text; Resource and LP-cost read from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup and format fit (D13), no tournament data
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick/starter rates) usage_statistics in_this_deck flags contradict the cards list for Exosister Karmael, Exosisters Magnifica, Exosister Kaspitell, Exosister Mikailis, Exosister Gibrine, Exosister Asophiel, Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS and Super Starslayer TY-PHON (listed as in_this_deck false while the cards list has them in the Extra Deck); core_cards_present/missing_core may be wrong No Side Deck registered, so post-side evaluation is unsupported Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
