Deck — Deck Power Evaluation
Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)
| Overall score | Value |
|---|---|
| Structural Deck Power | 59 |
| Going First | 64 |
| Going Second | 60 |
| Meta Power | provisional |
| Tournament Reliability | 50 |
- Primary strategy: Midrange
- Secondary strategies: Combo, Toolbox
- Format: ocg
Legality
Main 57 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).
Identity & game plan
- Win condition: Fusion Summon large Dragon boss monsters (Arthalion, Albion, Nibiru-adjacent boards) off the Dracotail / Fallen of Albaz engine, then close with attacks; Ecclesia and Albaz Dragon synchro/fusion boards that rebuild from the GY
- Turn 1 (going first): Open a Dracotail or Fallen of Albaz starter, Fusion Summon via Ketu/Rahu/Branded Fusion, then protect the board with Ash Blossom, Solemn Judgment and Effect Veiler
- Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Ash Blossom, Effect Veiler, Droll & Lock Bird, Nibiru) to break the opponent's first combo, then rebuild through Dracotail recursion from the GY
- Recovery: Dracotail Sting, Flame and Horn draw and recycle Dracotail cards from the GY or banishment onto the bottom of the Deck
- After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no side deck, so no post-side plan exists in the list
Why it scores here
The deck's engine is reasonably accessible: the archetype core has a 0.91 chance of at least one copy in a 5-card opening hand, and searcher text covers about 80% of the list (Inferred from hypergeometric estimates). Its interaction suite (Ash Blossom, Effect Veiler, Solemn Judgment, Droll & Lock Bird, Lightning Storm, Illusion Gate, Gallant Bandit) gives it real layering, and the hand-trap group has about a 0.70 chance of one going second. The score is held back by the list being illegal: Ash Blossom is run three times against a limit of two, so the evaluation is theoretical and capped. The list also has weak internal coherence (exact-name Dracotail purity is only 25%, with Mulcharmy, Branded, Despia and Albaz pieces diluting it), no side deck, and no recorded boards, so the median and ceiling are text-only inference. Popularity was not credited: Dracotail's usage stats confirm the archetype is real, but they added no points, and no card scores were averaged into the deck score.
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | Engine Accessibility & Consistency | 72 | P(>=1 archetype-core card in 5-card hand) 0.91; searcher text covers 15 cards with P(>=1) 0.80 (Inferred) |
| D2 | Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management | 58 | 57 main cards with 20 singletons and 54 off-exact-archetype copies; brick and conflict risk moderate-high (Inferred) |
| D3 | Combo Conversion & Ceiling | 55 | No recorded boards; ceiling inferred from text of Arthalion, Gulamel, Albion and Nibiru boards (Inferred) |
| D4 | Combo Floor & Median Output | 45 | No combo data; median output unknown, so scored conservatively (Provisional) |
| D5 | Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy | 68 | 10 hand traps plus Dracotail recursion give several independent answers to a single disruption (Inferred) |
| D6 | Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind | 60 | Draw effects from Sting, Flame, Horn and Mulcharmy plus GY recycling via Dracotail cards (Inferred) |
| D7 | End-Board & Interaction Quality | 72 | Ash Blossom, Veiler, Solemn, Droll, Lightning Storm, Illusion Gate and Sting give broad, layered interaction (Verified card text, Inferred quality) |
| D8 | Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power | 62 | Going-second hand-trap group reaches about 0.70 in hand, but there is no going-second win data (Inferred) |
| D9 | Offensive Pressure & Closing Power | 68 | Several 3000-ATK Fusion bosses are present (Arthalion, Albion, Nibiru); no end-board observations (Inferred) |
| D10 | Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility | 48 | 57 main cards with 35 distinct and 6 copies of Mulcharmy, so the main is inefficient and off-theme (Verified composition) |
| D11 | Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage | 66 | 14 Fusion and 1 Synchro fill 15 Extra slots, with two Arthalion as the main engine (Verified composition) |
| D12 | Side Deck Adaptability | 15 | No side deck in the list, so adaptability is essentially absent (Verified) |
| D13 | Matchup Coverage & Format Fit | 50 | No tournament link or dated meta sample; Dracotail meta share unknown (Provisional) |
| D14 | Pilotability & Error Tolerance | 42 | Multi-step Fusion, GY recursion and layered hand-trap decisions are demanding for the intended player (Inferred) |
How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Midrange 80 / Combo 20 (Structural computed on Midrange weights). Structural ≈ 59, Going First ≈ 64, Going Second ≈ 60, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-3). Final formula: No-metagame formula: 0.80*Structural(59) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(50) = 57, plus modifiers (-3) = 54; the Illegal legality cap then sets the reported score to 35 (theoretical/structural-only, not a normal final score)
Probability & combo summary
- Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.91 · 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
- Archetype core is highly accessible (0.91 chance of at least one copy in a 5-card hand)
- Layered interaction suite including hand traps, Solemn Judgment, Lightning Storm and Illusion Gate
- Large Fusion boss package with several 3000-ATK options
Weaknesses
- Illegal copy count: Ash Blossom run 3 times against a limit of 2
- Low exact-archetype purity (25%) and off-theme Mulcharmy, Branded and Despia copies
- No side deck
- No recorded boards, so combo floor and median cannot be measured
Critical choke points
- Dracotail Fusion starters (Ketu, Rahu, Branded Fusion) are limited to one copy each, so losing them to disruption cuts the main line
- Fallen of Albaz is the shared material for multiple Fusion routes and is a single-point dependency
Recommended changes
| Priority | Remove | Add | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | One copy of Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring | Any non-limited replacement | Fixes the copy-limit violation, which is the only reason the evaluation is capped |
| 2 | One or two Mulcharmy copies | Dracotail or Fallen of Albaz support cards | Raises exact-archetype purity and reduces dead or off-theme hands |
| 3 | No side deck present | A 10–15 card side deck | A side is required for post-side adaptability and currently drags D12 down |
Evidence & confidence
- Verified: Legality: Ash Blossom at 3 copies exceeds the OCG limit of 2; Main 57, Extra 15, Side 0 counts; Card text and banlist status for listed cards
- Inferred: Opening-hand probabilities (0.91 core, 0.80 searcher, 0.70 hand trap going second); Dimension scores D1–D9 and D11 from composition and card text; Going-first and going-second power estimates
- Provisional: Meta Power (null) and matchup fit D13; Median and ceiling combo output (text-only)
- Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link — archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no side deck in the list, so no post-side plan can be scored no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN — those signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
