Tenyi Deck #769605 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 25/100 (±10 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Stun, Toolbox
• 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: Extra Deck Synchro/Link attackers (Draco Berserker of the Tenyi, Swordsoul Supreme Sovereign - Chengying, Baxia, Dragite) sustained by the Swordsoul/Tenyi Wyrm engine and its Swordsoul Token; Swordsoul Token Extra Deck lock plus Synchro/Link follow-up, with Ekhajar and Psychic End Punisher as board pressure
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Swordsoul/Tenyi starter (Swordsoul of Mo Ye, Swordsoul Strategist Longyuan, Tenyi Spirit - Ashuna, Incredible Ecclesia), use Swordsoul Emergence to find an engine piece, then Synchro Summon into a boss while holding Infinite Impermanence and Ash Blossom for the opponent's turn
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Effect Veiler, Maxx C and Infinite Impermanence to answer the first summon or activation, then rebuild a Synchro board from the Swordsoul/Tenyi Wyrm material pool
• Recovery: Recover through Tenyi Spirit banish-from-hand/GY effects (Ashuna, Vishuda, Shthana, Adhara) and Swordsoul Emergence searches, then re-summon from the GY
• After siding: Not evaluable: side_count is 0, so there is no post-side plan in the supplied list

Why it scores here

This list is Illegal: Archnemeses Protos and Baronne de Fleur are Forbidden in the OCG BanList and each is run at 1 copy, so the deck is scored as a structural read only and its final score is capped at 25. The structure is a Swordsoul/Tenyi Synchro engine with six three-of starters, so the deck reliably opens a live starter in roughly one in three opening hands per 3-copy card (Inferred, 0.34 per card in a 5-card hand) and reaches a functional engine most of the time with its searchers. Its interaction suite (Infinite Impermanence x3, Ash Blossom x2, Effect Veiler, Maxx C, Solemn Judgment, Blackout x2, Crossout Designator, Harpie's Feather Duster) is broad enough to carry the engine past a single interruption, which is what drives the structural score rather than any single card's power. Median output and combo ceiling cannot be measured because combos_evidence has zero parseable boards, so those scores are text-only inferences and sit near the middle. No side deck, no tournament link and no dated meta sample are present, so post-side, matchup and meta scores are provisional. Popularity of the Tenyi/Swordsoul archetype was not credited; the score comes from the system as a whole, not from averaging card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange profile only; the Stun secondary is disclosed as descriptive and not blended. Structural ≈ 62, Going First ≈ 64, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 52. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12). Final formula: Illegal cap: uncapped 0.80*Structural(62) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(52) = 60, minus 12 banlist modifier = 48, then capped to 25 because the deck is Illegal (structural-only read)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.34 · 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

• Six three-of Swordsoul/Tenyi starters give redundant engine access
• Broad hand-trap and negation package (7 hand traps, 10 negation-text cards)
• Compact 40-card main with 11 singleton flex slots
• 14 distinct Extra Deck cards cover Synchro and Link bosses across ATK tiers

Weaknesses

• Illegal: two Forbidden cards at 1 copy each
• No side deck, so no post-side plan
• No recorded boards, so ceiling and median are text-only inference
• Engine depends on Tuner and Wyrm material; Swordsoul/Tenyi synergy is strong but archetype purity is only 23.6% exact-name

Critical choke points

• Forbidden Archnemeses Protos and Baronne de Fleur make the list unplayable in OCG until removed
• Synchro summon needs a Tuner in hand or field; 11 Tuner monsters in main provide access but not guaranteed

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Deck size 40 main, 15 extra, 0 side: within OCG size rules; Archnemeses Protos and Baronne de Fleur are Forbidden in OCG and run at 1 copy each; Other restricted cards (Limited/Semi-Limited) are within legal copy counts; Composition: 6 three-of starters, 7 hand traps, 12 Synchro and 3 Link Extra cards
• Inferred: Starter access probabilities from the hypergeometric table; Consistency, brick and resilience scores from card text and composition; Structural score and going-first/second estimates
• Provisional: Meta and matchup fit (no dated sample, no tournament link); Post-side plan (no side deck)
• 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 are absent No side deck (side_count 0), so post-side adaptability is unmeasured No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied usage_statistics.in_this_deck is false for Extra Deck core cards that are present in the deck list (Qixing Longyuan, Chengying, Draco, Shaman, Chixiao, Dragite, Yazi, Monk, Sahasrara). The check appears to cover only the Main Deck, so the core_cards_present figure (14 of 23, 60.9%) and missing_core list are understated; by name all 23 core cards are present. Verify the preprocessor before using missing_core.
