Cyber Dragon Deck #769419 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 26/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Tempo, Fusion/Link/Xyz
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 42 / Extra 12 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Cyber Dragon Nova / Chimeratech Fortress or Megafleet Dragon boards built through Cyber Dragon Core, Cyber Dragon and Cyber Emergency searches, with Cyber Eternity Dragon and Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS as the late-game boss threats; Cyberdark Realm / Cyberdark Claw and Clockwork Night value plus Therion King Regulus as a stand-alone Machine boss
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon Cyber Dragon Core to search a Cyber Spell/Trap, then Cyber Dragon or Cyber Dragon Nachster to reach a Fusion or Link extension (Inferred from text; no parseable boards)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence and Droll & Lock Bird as hand interaction, then respond to the opponent's first engine with Cyber Dragon Core or Cyber Dragon (Inferred)
• Recovery: Cyber Revsystem and Cybernetic Overflow recursion plus Cyber Dragon Herz and Cyber Dragon Nachster GY revival (Inferred from text)
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has zero Side Deck cards, so no post-side plan exists

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a system: the archetype core (Cyber Dragon Core, Cyber Dragon, Cyber Emergency, Cyberdark Realm, Clockwork Night) gives a reasonably live opening (P of at least one copy-3 starter in a 5-card hand is about 0.32, and the archetype core group gives about 0.88 for at least one core card in hand; Inferred). Hand-trap density (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Droll & Lock Bird; about 0.69 chance of at least one hand trap in a 6-card going-second hand; Inferred) and the Extra Deck spread of Fusion, Link and Xyz monsters give real interaction and board-breaking options. Those strengths are offset by the deck being Illegal (three Ash Blossom against a limit of two), having no Side Deck, no recorded boards and no tournament or win-rate data, so there is no evidence the deck converts reliably. Popularity of the archetype did not earn points, and card scores were not averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 47, Going First ≈ 48, Going Second ≈ 42, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: copy_limit_violation (-20); no_side_deck (-3); no_combo_or_tournament_evidence (-2). Final formula: Illegal deck: 0.80*Structural(47) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(40) = 45.6, then the illegal copy-limit modifier (-20) is applied and the result is capped low; Meta provisional

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.32 · 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

• Large Cyber Dragon core with several searchers and summon routes
• Hand-trap density (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Droll & Lock Bird) for going second
• Varied Extra Deck boss options (Fusion, Link, Xyz)

Weaknesses

• Illegal: Ash Blossom run 3 times against an OCG limit of 2
• No Side Deck, so no post-side plan
• No recorded boards, win-rate or tournament data to confirm conversion

Critical choke points

• Ash Blossom copy count must be fixed before the deck is playable
• Starter density: a copy-3 starter is only about 32 percent likely in a 5-card opening hand

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality status Illegal from copy-limit check: Ash Blossom 3 copies vs limit 2; Main 42 / Extra 12 / Side 0 counts inside OCG size rules; Card stats and text for the 22 main and 10 extra distinct cards; Archetype usage: 23 stat rows, 8 of 18 core cards present
• Inferred: Starter and hand-trap draw probabilities from hypergeometric estimates; Going-first and going-second plans from card text; Interaction density from role-hint tags
• Provisional: Meta Power left null; no dated metagame sample; Matchup fit (D13) based only on archetype context
• 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 One passcode (10443957) could not be resolved and was counted as Main No win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick/starter rates) Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample Deck has no Side Deck, so D12 has no post-side data
