Blackwings Deck #769402 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Tempo, Control
• 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: Synchro pressure from Black-Winged Assault Dragon, Assault Blackwing - Kusanagi, Blackwing Full Armor Master and Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend, all reached through Blackwing Tuner and non-Tuner chains; Hot Red Dragon Archfiend Abyss and Blackwing - Nothung the Starlight for direct pressure and piercing damage
• Turn 1 (going first): Turn 1 starter from Shamal, Sudri, Vata, Simoon or Mulcharmy Fuwalos, then a Blackwing Tuner plus a non-Tuner Synchro into a 3000+ ATK boss
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand-trap Ash Blossom or Dominus Impulse on the opponent's first summon or search, then rebuild a Synchro board from the hand starters
• Recovery: Recycle Vayu, Zephyros and Boreastorm from the GY and use Small World or Black Whirlwind to re-search Blackwing starters
• After siding: None. The deck runs 0 side cards, so there is no post-side plan.

Why it scores here

This list is illegal in OCG: three copies each of Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring and Dominus Impulse exceed their Semi-Limited limit of two, so the evaluation is theoretical and structural only and the final score is capped at 35. Structurally the deck reliably opens a Blackwing starter, with roughly an 85% chance of at least one searcher in a going-first opening hand (Inferred), and it converts that into a Synchro board with several 2800 to 3200 ATK bosses and three hand traps. Its weak points are the empty side deck, the lack of any recorded combo or post-side data, and a heavy dependence on Blackwing Tuners for every Synchro line. Popularity did not earn points: the only usage stat is a single core card at 60% inclusion, which is not present in this list. The score comes from consistency, interaction and closing power on the system, not from averaging the individual card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 63, Going First ≈ 64, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 55. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-6); no_side_deck (-3). Final formula: Illegal cap: 0.80*Structural(63) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(55) + modifiers(-9) = 52, capped to 35 for an illegal list. Meta power provisional.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.85 · 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

• Three copies of most Blackwing starters give high opening access
• Multiple 3000+ ATK Synchro bosses cover several Extra Deck lines
• Three hand traps and GY recursion add interruption resilience

Weaknesses

• Illegal in OCG: two cards exceed Semi-Limited limits
• No side deck, so no post-side adaptation
• No recorded combo or win-rate data to validate the ceiling or median

Critical choke points

• Each Synchro line requires a Blackwing Tuner plus a non-Tuner in hand or field
• Legality is blocked until the over-limit copies are removed

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main Deck has 40 cards and Extra Deck has 15, both within size rules; Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring and Dominus Impulse each run 3 copies against a Semi-Limited limit of 2 (OCG); Side Deck is empty
• Observed: Composition counts: 15 Synchro in Extra Deck, 12 searcher-text cards, 3 hand traps; Usage stat: Blackwing - Silverwind the Ascendant at 60% inclusion, absent from this list
• Inferred: At least one searcher in a going-first 5-card hand ≈ 0.85; Synchro chain conversion and interaction quality from card text; GY recursion and resilience from card text
• Provisional: Meta power and matchup fit (no dated metagame sample or tournament link); Median output (no recorded boards)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record are absent No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN for going-first/second, matchup or brick rates Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck title is null
