Utopia Deck #769449 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 46/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra-Deck boss beats from P.U.N.K. Synchro/Fusion/Xyz (Ukiyoe-P.U.N.K. Amazing Dragon, P.U.N.K. JAM Dragon Drive, P.U.N.K. JAM FEVER!, Psychic End Punisher, Juraishin, The Zombie Vampire); Number 90 Galaxy-Eyes Photon Lord and Number 38 Hope Harbinger as negate-backed Xyz finishers; Therion and Horus monsters as a secondary board
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Level 8 P.U.N.K. self-summoner (Foxy Tune, Rising Scale or Ogre Dance) from hand, use Ze Amin or Madame Spider to reach a Level 3 Tuner, and Synchro into a P.U.N.K. boss; hold Ash Blossom or Infinite Impermanence for the first response.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Droll & Lock Bird, Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit and Forbidden Droplet to stop the opponent's first board, then rebuild through the P.U.N.K. self-summon engine and an extra-deck boss.
• Recovery: Recover from the GY through Noh-P.U.N.K. Deer Note, Gagaku-P.U.N.K. Wa Gon and JAM Extreme Session, and re-enter the Level 8 starters from the GY where the effects allow.
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan; every matchup is played with the 40-card main.

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a functional plan through three copies each of the Level 8 P.U.N.K. self-summoners (Foxy Tune, Rising Scale, Ogre Dance), which gives roughly a 74% chance of at least one in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred hypergeometric). Its disruption suite of six hand traps and eight negation-text cards keeps the first board contestable, and the 15-card Extra Deck offers Synchro, Xyz and Fusion bosses with strong ATK. The score is held back by a split engine: only 1 of 55 archetype copies is named Utopia, 22 are P.U.N.K. and 18 are generic, so the Utopia label does not describe the real engine, and the Utopia core cards from the usage statistics are largely absent. The deck runs an empty side deck, so it has no post-side plan, and no recorded boards exist to measure its real median output. The score comes from consistency, interaction and boss quality on the system as a whole, not from Utopia's popularity, and not from averaging the individual card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange 100% (Toolbox noted, not blended). Structural ≈ 54, Going First ≈ 56, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: engine_conflict (-3); empty_side_deck (-2); banlist_exposure (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional; no dated metagame sample)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.74 · 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

• Nine Level 8 self-summoning starters across three copies each gives a high chance of a live opening
• Six hand traps plus eight negation-text cards give layered early interaction
• Extra Deck of 15 spans Synchro, Xyz, Fusion and Link with several 3000+ ATK bosses

Weaknesses

• Engine split across P.U.N.K., Therion, Horus and generic tech; Utopia is labelled but only one Utopia-named copy is run
• No side deck, so no post-side plan
• No recorded boards or win-rate telemetry to measure median output

Critical choke points

• Opening without a Level 8 P.U.N.K. starter (about 26% in a 5-card hand) stalls the plan
• LP-costed P.U.N.K. effects require LP buffer; repeated payments can strand the board

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 40, Extra 15, Side 0 is legal under OCG size rules (min 40 / max 60 main; 0 to 15 extra and side); Droll & Lock Bird 1 of 1 Limited; Ash Blossom 2 of 2 Semi-Limited; Copy histogram 15 singletons, 5 doubles, 5 triples; Archetype spread P.U.N.K. 22, generic 18, Therion 5, Horus 4, Forbidden 2, others 1 each; Utopia exact-name purity 1.8% (1 of 55 copies)
• Inferred: P(at least one Level 8 P.U.N.K. self-summoner in 5 cards) ≈ 0.74; P(at least one hand trap in 6 cards going second) ≈ 0.65; Engine conflict across three archetypes lowers Structural by a few points; Dimension scores on D1 to D11 and D14
• Provisional: Meta Power (null, no dated metagame sample); Matchup and format fit (D13), no tournament link
• 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 (going-first/second, matchup, brick/starter rates) Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied usage_statistics missing_core lists Number F0: Utopic Draco Future (26973555) and Number F0: Utopic Future (65305468) as not in this deck, but the cards array lists both at copies 1 in the Extra Deck; the in_this_deck flags appear to be wrong and are not used for scoring no side deck, so no post-side data no guides attached for the archetype
