Orcust Deck #769663 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Link and Xyz boss monsters (Topologic Zeroboros, Topologic Bomber Dragon, Enlilgirsu, Dingirsu, Longirsu, Galatea) taking over the board from a Link-based Orcust engine; Veidos and Cyber Eternity Dragon as high-ATK finishers when the Extra Deck line stalls
• Turn 1 (going first): Open on Orcust Cymbal Skeleton, Orcust Harp Horror or Girsu (about 83% that a core Orcust card is in the opening five), extend into a Link Summon, and keep Solemn Judgment, Ash Blossom and Droll up as interaction
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the six-card hand's hand traps (Ash Blossom x2, Maxx C, Droll & Lock Bird, Infinite Impermanence x2) to disrupt the opponent's first board, then go to the Link/Xyz engine
• Recovery: Foolish Burial and Foolish Burial Goods to refill, plus Orcustrated Babel and Orcust Crescendo for recursion from the GY
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so no post-side plan can be evaluated

Why it scores here

The deck is Illegal as built: two copies of Triple Tactics Talent are Forbidden in OCG, so under the rubric it receives no normal Final Contextual score and is capped low as a theoretical, structural-only read. The structural score comes from the system: 16 exact-name Orcust copies give an archetype core that is about 83% likely to produce a live starter in the opening five, and the Extra Deck supplies several 2600-3000 ATK boss monsters that close games. Interaction is dense (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Maxx C, Solemn Judgment, Heavy Storm, Dominus Impulse, several floodgates), which lifts end-board quality and going-second power. Brick risk is real because only about 23% of the main deck is exact Orcust, with roughly 26 generic cards plus Mekk-Knight, Mulcharmy and Cyber Dragon staples. Usage statistics confirm the list is a real, accessible archetype build, but they earn no points for power, no combo boards exist to measure floor, median or ceiling, and no side deck or meta sample was supplied, so the score is not an average of individual card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-10); no_recorded_boards (-2). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural(52) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) = 51; context modifiers -12 gives 39; Illegal-list cap sets the final score to 30 (theoretical/structural-only, not a normal score)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.83 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.17 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• 16 exact-name Orcust copies give a high starter rate in the opening five (Verified via probabilities)
• Dense interaction: 6 hand traps, Solemn Judgment, Heavy Storm, Dominus Impulse and two floodgates (Inferred)
• Extra Deck has several 2600-3000 ATK link/Xyz bosses for closing (Verified)

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: Triple Tactics Talent Forbidden at 2 copies (Verified)
• About 77% of the main deck is not exact Orcust, which raises brick risk (Verified via composition)
• No recorded boards, so consistency of combo conversion cannot be checked (Verified: data gap)
• No side deck, so no post-side plan (Verified)

Critical choke points

• Starters depend on Orcust monsters being drawn; the core is 16 copies, so 2-card bootstraps are sensitive to the opening hand (Inferred)
• Extra Deck link boss lines depend on the Link Monsters staying on the field, so a single hand trap or Solemn can cut the line (Inferred)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Deck is Illegal: Triple Tactics Talent, Forbidden, 2 copies run; Main 55 and Extra 15 are within the OCG size rules; Side 0 is registered; Exact Orcust purity is 22.9% (16 of 70 main/extra copies)
• Observed: Usage statistics show the Orcust core is a standard build (inclusion 100% for Orcustrated Babel and Girsu)
• Inferred: Opening-hand starter access about 0.83 and full brick about 0.17; Interaction density supports a Midrange/Stun read; Going-second hand traps raise the going-second score
• Provisional: Meta Power is null; no dated metagame sample was supplied; Matchup and format fit are unknown without tournament data
• Data gaps: No combos supplied, so floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link, so archetype meta-share and per-pilot records are absent No side deck registered, so post-side performance is unmeasurable No win-rate telemetry exists (going-first/second, matchup, brick and OTK rates) Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied usage_statistics marks Extra-Deck cards present in this deck (Galatea, Galatea-I, Enlilgirsu, Longirsu, S:P Little Knight, Dingirsu) as in_this_deck=false, so core presence is understated; not used for scoring
