Performapal Deck #769391 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 52/100 (±9 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 9 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Odd-Eyes and Performapal Extra Deck bosses (Odd-Eyes Advance Dragon 3000 ATK, Performapal Odd-Eyes Metal Claw 3000 ATK, Brave-Eyes and Beast-Eyes Pendulum Dragons 3000 ATK) reached through searcher-driven Normal Summons and Fusion/Synchro/Xyz pivots; Odd-Eyes Absolute Dragon and Odd-Eyes Vortex Dragon as disruption-backed follow-up, with Starving Venom and Odd-Eyes Saber Dragon as backup bosses
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon a Performapal starter (Uni, Corn, or Friendonkey), use the Main Phase summon triggers to Special Summon Helpprincess or a searched Level 4 or lower monster, then extend into a Fusion Summon via Polymerization or Odd-Eyes Fusion
• Turn 2 (going second): Six-card hand with a searcher (13 searcher-text copies, about 88 percent chance of at least one in hand) to reach a boss; the deck has no hand traps, so going second relies on Performance Hurricane, Odd-Eyes destruction effects and Rain Goat protection (Inferred)
• Recovery: Searchers rebuild the hand from the Deck (Sky Iris, Odd-Eyes Dragon, Odd-Eyes Wizard Dragon, Reinforcement of the Army, Terraforming), and Performapal recursion from the Graveyard or banish zone restarts the summon triggers (Inferred)
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so there is no documented post-side plan; this is a major gap for a best-of-3 event

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a system: it reliably opens a Performapal starter and a searcher (13 searcher-text copies, about 88 percent chance of at least one in a 5-card hand, Inferred), then converts through Main Phase summon triggers into a Fusion, Synchro or Xyz boss in the 2800 to 3000 ATK range. Interaction is real but thin: 12 removal-text and 1 negation-text cards, no hand traps, and no floodgates. The biggest structural drags are the absence of any side deck (D12) and only one Tuner monster supporting two Synchro bosses, which limits the Synchro lines. No combos were recorded, so the floor, median and ceiling scores are text-based inference and are not averaged from card scores. Archetype popularity did not earn points: the usage-stat core matched zero cards by the export's own count, and the score comes from consistency, redundancy and boss output alone.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 57, Going First ≈ 62, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 55. Modifiers: No side deck (-3); Synchro tuner shortage (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional); 0.80*57.37 + 0.20*55 - 5 = 51.9, rounded to 52

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ — · 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

• Searcher density (13 cards, about 88 percent chance of at least one searcher in 5 cards) keeps the deck live
• Several redundant three-copy starters (Uni, Corn, Friendonkey, Helpprincess) give multiple openings
• Boss ceiling of 2800 to 3000 ATK across Fusion, Synchro and Xyz with destruction and direct-damage effects
• Legal in OCG with only three Limited cards at one copy each

Weaknesses

• No side deck, so there is no post-side plan
• No hand traps and no floodgates, so going second is weak against an established board
• Two Synchro bosses share a single Tuner in the Main Deck
• No recorded combos, so the floor and median are unmeasured

Critical choke points

• The Tuner count (one monster) gates both Synchro bosses
• Fusion lines depend on Polymerization, Odd-Eyes Fusion or Fusion Tag (six enablers total)
• Pendulum Zone plays (Sky Iris, Odd-Eyes Meteorburst) may be undervalued if the export's frame and scale data is wrong

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 40 / Extra 9 / Side 0 is within OCG size rules (main 40-60, extra 0-15, side 0-15); Limited banlist status on One for One, Reinforcement of the Army and Terraforming at one copy each, all legal; Boss ATK values from card data (2800 to 3000 ATK range); Searcher-text count of 13 and removal-text count of 12 from text hints
• Inferred: P(at least one searcher in 5-card hand) = 0.877 from hypergeometric draw; Consistency and brick rate from composition and card text; Going-first and going-second strength from text and probability; Synchro tuner shortage from Tuner count in the Main Deck
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup and format fit (no tournament link); Post-side plan (no side deck)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and match record absent No win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchup or brick rates Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample The usage-statistics core check reports 0 of 15 core cards present, but Odd-Eyes Vortex Dragon (53262004) and Odd-Eyes Absolute Dragon (16691074) appear in the card list. The matching appears inconsistent and was not used to score Every Pendulum-capable card shows frame effect and scale 0; Pendulum Zone synergy cannot be verified from this evidence No side deck is registered, so D12 and post-side plans cannot be evaluated
