Unchained Deck #769262 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 25/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Unchained Link-Summon and Special Summon chains (Evil★Twin Link monsters, Unchained Soul link pressure, Evil★Twin's Trouble Sunny and Unchained Abomination as boards); Live☆Twin Lil-la / Ki-sikil recursion and Link Summon pressure, supported by Unchained's Special Summon engine from Abomination's Prison and Escape of the Unchained
• Turn 1 (going first): Open with Abomination's Prison, Abominable Chamber or Live☆Twin Ki-sikil (Inferred, based on copy counts); search or summon an Unchained engine monster and go to Link Summon (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence and Effect Veiler against the opponent's first activation, then rebuild through Unchained Twins and Link Summon (Inferred)
• Recovery: Unchained Twins and Live☆Twin Sunny's Snitch recover the Unchained engine from the Deck and GY; banished or GY Link Monsters re-enable Special Summons (Inferred)
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no Side Deck, so no post-side plan exists (Verified)

Why it scores here

Structural score comes from the system as a whole: the 24 exact-name Unchained cards plus the Live☆Twin and Evil★Twin subthemes give a 95% chance of at least one archetype-core card in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred), and 9 hand traps plus 8 negation-text cards give strong interaction density on both turns. Going-second strength is credible because the hand traps reach 81% in a 6-card hand (Inferred). Conversion ceiling and median output are capped by the complete absence of recorded boards, so D3 and D4 are text-only inferences and not observed results. Popularity and archetype usage do not earn points: the deck is illegal, its usage match is partial (8 of 25 core cards present, 32%), and no tournament data is supplied. Score is capped to theoretical because Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring is run 3 copies against a Semi-Limited limit of 2; the score was not averaged from card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Balanced (default). Structural ≈ 56, Going First ≈ 58, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: Banlist exposure (-8); No side deck (-4). Final formula: Illegal list: normal formula 0.80*Structural(56) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) + Modifiers(-12) = 42 is NOT applied; score capped to theoretical 25 per rubric Step 2. Meta Power provisional/null.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.95 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.05 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Dense archetype-core access: 95% chance of at least one archetype-core card in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred)
• Strong interaction on both turns: 9 hand traps and 8 negation-text cards (Inferred)
• Going-second hand traps reach ≈81% in a 6-card hand (Inferred)
• High-ATK Link boards from Evil★Twin's Trouble Sunny and Unchained Abomination (Verified stats)

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy count: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring is run 3 times against a limit of 2 (Verified)
• No side deck and no post-side plan (Verified)
• Low exact-name purity (43.6%) with three related sub-archetypes diluting the engine (Verified)
• No recorded combos, so ceiling and median are text-only inferences (Verified gap)

Critical choke points

• Unchained Link Summon chain: a single Link Monster or Special Summon engine card in hand is needed to start the line (Inferred)
• Ash Blossom over-limit: the legal list must cut one copy before the deck can be played (Verified)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 40, Extra 15, Side 0 meet OCG size rules; Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring over copy limit (3 vs 2); Droll & Lock Bird and Foolish Burial each run 1 copy (Limited) and are legal; Card stats and link ratings from the evidence file
• Inferred: P(at least one archetype-core card in 5-card hand) ≈ 0.95; Hand-trap availability ≈ 0.81 going second; Engine conversion and resilience from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power (null); Matchup fit and tournament reliability (no dated meta or results)
• 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 No win-rate telemetry for going-first/second, matchup or brick/starter rates Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck has no Side Deck, so post-side performance cannot be evaluated
