Evil Twin Deck #769094 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Link and Fusion pressure from the Evil Twin / Fiendsmith Extra Deck (Evil Twin's Trouble Sunny 3300 ATK, Fiendsmith's Rextremende, Super Starslayer TY-PHON) once the Live Twin Ki-sikil / Lil-la board is established; Fiendsmith Lacrima / Desirae fusion and negation pressure through the Fiendsmith cards in the Main and Extra Decks
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Live Twin Ki-sikil or Lil-la and the Secret Password / Sunny's Snitch searchers, then extend into a Link Summon of an Evil Twin monster (Inferred from text; no boards recorded)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Droll & Lock Bird, Ghost Ogre and Nibiru as hand traps to answer the opponent's starter, then rebuild the Live Twin board (Inferred)
• Recovery: Fuwalos and Purulia draw engines plus Secret Password / Fiendsmith's Tract to re-search pieces after a single interruption (Inferred)
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan; the list cannot be played best-of-3 as built

Why it scores here

The deck is Illegal in OCG as built: Ash Blossom is run 3 times against a limit of 2 and Fiendsmith Engraver 3 times against a limit of 1, so per the rubric it receives only a capped, structural-only score. Its system reads as a Midrange deck with real interaction: 13 hand-trap and tech cards, multiple Ash and Impermanence style answers, and a Live Twin / Ki-sikil opening that feeds into a 15-card Link and Fusion Extra Deck. Consistency is moderate: the 3-copy Ki-sikil and searchers give about a 0.34 chance of a starter in a 5-card hand (Inferred), while the 14-card archetype core gives about 0.90 chance of opening at least one. The score does not come from Evil Twin being a popular archetype, and it is not an average of the card scores. Off-archetype copies (55 of 58 non-exact cards) and the Fiendsmith splash lower coherence, and the absence of combo boards, post-side data, and a side deck keeps the confidence Low.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 56, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 60, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: Banlist / copy-limit exposure (-12). Final formula: Illegal list: theoretical cap. Unclamped 0.80*56 + 0.20*50 - 12 = 43, capped at 30 (structural-only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.34 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.1 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Dense hand-trap suite (13 cards) with multiple answers to the opponent's starter
• Three-copy Live Twin Ki-sikil and searchers give a reasonable opening
• Extra Deck has real closing threats (Trouble Sunny, Starslayer TY-PHON, Rextremende)

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy limits on Ash Blossom and Fiendsmith Engraver
• No side deck and no post-side plan
• Two or three Extra archetypes compete for slots; 55 of 58 non-exact copies are off-archetype

Critical choke points

• Live Twin Ki-sikil / Lil-la opening: a single starter failure leaves most of the Link pieces dead (Inferred)
• Engraver (3 copies) is the Fiendsmith gateway and is over its Limited cap

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 40, Extra 15, Side 0 counts (within OCG size rules); Ash Blossom 3 copies vs legal 2 (Semi-Limited) and Fiendsmith Engraver 3 vs legal 1 (Limited); Card text for hand traps, searchers and Extra Deck links from resolved cards; Usage stat: Ki-sikil and Ash Blossom appear in core cards (inclusion 70.6%)
• Inferred: P(starter in 5 cards) ≈ 0.34 for the Ki-sikil 3-copy piece; core P ≈ 0.90; Midrange primary strategy from hand traps and Link/Fusion Extra Deck mix; Going-second hand-trap coverage ≈ 0.92 per the hand_trap_group estimate; Interaction density and resilience read from card text only
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); D13 matchup and format fit (no tournament context)
• Data gaps: no combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent no win-rate telemetry for this deck (going-first/second, matchup, brick/starter rates) Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied deck title is null and no side deck is registered
