Predaplant Deck #769378 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Midrange, Control
• 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: Fusion and Predaplant boards that end in Starving Venom Predapower Fusion Dragon, Predaplant Triphyoverutum or Dragostapelia (structural read from card text, Inferred); Synchro beaters (Bramble Rose, Clear Wing, Black Rose) after Predaplant monsters are on the field (Inferred)
• Turn 1 (going first): Predaprimitive or Ophrys Scorpio/Longinephila on T1 to reach Polymerization or Super Polymerization, then fuse into a Predaplant boss (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Use a hand trap (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Maxx C, Droll & Lock Bird, Red Reboot) to break the opponent's first summon, then Fusion Summon from the Extra Deck (Inferred)
• Recovery: Predaplant Byblisp and Darlingtonia Cobra recur from the GY and fetch Polymerization or Predaplant monsters from the Deck (Inferred)
• After siding: None: the deck has no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan.

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a system, not by averaging its cards. Its 22 archetype-core copies give about a 93% chance of at least one Predaplant in the opening five (hypergeometric, Inferred), and about 9 fusion enablers give it a real route to a Fusion Summon. Its 11 hand traps and about 24 removal-text cards give it breadth of interaction, which helps it survive disruption and contest the going-second board. The main weaknesses are the illegal Forbidden Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon, the 55-card Main Deck (compactness is low), the absence of any Side Deck, and the lack of combo or tournament data, which keeps the ceiling and matchup reads uncertain. Popularity did not earn points: the archetype core is a usage-stat confirmation only. The score is capped at 30 because the list is Illegal, and the unrounded structural read is theoretical only.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 62.4, Going First ≈ 64, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 55. Modifiers: Illegal list cap (0); Banlist exposure (0). Final formula: Illegal cap: unrounded 0.80*62.4 + 0.20*55 = 60.9 is theoretical only; score capped at 30 per rubric Step 2 (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.93 · 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 very likely to be drawn (≈93% in hand5, Inferred)
• Broad interaction: 11 hand traps plus 10 negation-text and 24 removal-text cards
• Multiple recursion routes from the GY (Byblisp, Darlingtonia) and Polymerization search
• Strong Extra Deck boss ceiling (Triphyoverutum, Predapower Dragon)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Forbidden Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon is run 1 copy
• No Side Deck at all, so no post-side adaptation
• 55-card Main Deck with only 20% exact-archetype purity lowers compactness
• No combo or tournament data, so ceiling and matchup reads stay Inferred

Critical choke points

• Fusion Summon of the boss depends on Polymerization-type spells (9 enablers, but only 1 Polymerization and 2 Super Polymerization in hand is not guaranteed)
• Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon must be removed before this list is legal

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Deck is Illegal: Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon is Forbidden with 0 legal copies, and the deck runs 1; Main 55, Extra 15, Side 0 are within size_rules; Usage stats: Predaplant Bal Teah 70% inclusion, typical 1 copy, absent from this deck
• Inferred: Archetype core P(≥1 in hand5) ≈ 0.93; Hand-trap P(≥1 in hand6) ≈ 0.76; Extra Deck boss ceiling; Interaction quality from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup and format fit (D13)
• 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, matchups or brick rate Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck title is null
