GMX Deck #769696 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 15/100 (±5 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 54 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: GMX Fusion boards (GMX - COMPREX, GMX - ALLOS, GMX - VELOX, Evolved Daneen) powered by the GMX/Dinosaur searcher engine (Inferred); Link and Xyz beaters (Promethean Princess, Amphibious Swarmship Amblowhale, Evolzar Laggia) when Fusion access is blanked (Inferred)
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon GMX Researcher Selande or Souleating Oviraptor, search a GMX Spell/Trap or Dinosaur, then Fusion Summon a GMX Fusion via GMX 55th Experiment Report or Returned Dino Daneen (Inferred from card text)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre and Droll & Lock Bird to answer the first starter, then rebuild the Fusion line on the next turn (Inferred)
• Recovery: GY recursion through Returned Dino Daneen, GMX Chairman Kimridge and Mulcharmy draw effects to refill the hand (Inferred from card text)
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered (0 of 15 slots), so there is no post-side plan; this is a structural gap, not a design choice (Verified)

Why it scores here

The deck is scored on its system, not on an average of its cards. Its GMX searcher engine (Researcher Selande, Partner Selandea, Chairman Kimridge, Applied Experiment #55) gives an archetype core that is present in about 95 percent of opening hands (Inferred hypergeometric estimate), so the engine usually comes online. Interaction is broad, with 8 hand traps and 11 negation-text cards, but the deck cannot legally be built as listed. Miscellaneousaurus is run 3 copies against a limit of 1, and Cross-Sheep is a Forbidden card run once, so the list is Illegal. There are no recorded boards, no tournament record and no Side Deck, so the conversion, floor and going-second readings are text-based inference only. Archetype popularity was not credited, and the score is capped low because the list is illegal.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 45.5, Going First ≈ 45, Going Second ≈ 42, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-8). Final formula: Pre-cap: 0.80*45.5 + 0.20*40 + (-8 banlist modifier) = 36.4. Illegal deck, so the score is capped to 15 and labelled theoretical and structural-only. Meta Power is null (provisional).

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.95 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.05 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• GMX searcher engine gives high starter access (Inferred)
• Layered hand traps and negation text (Verified from card text)
• Compact 54-card Main with a 15-card Extra deck (Verified)

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy counts for Miscellaneousaurus and Cross-Sheep (Verified)
• No Side Deck (Verified)
• Off-archetype copies make up 68 percent of the Main Deck, which weakens engine coherence (Verified)

Critical choke points

• Single-copy Fusion starters with no alternate route if they are answered (Inferred)
• Dependence on Limited cards (Maxx C, Droll and Lock Bird, Dimensional Barrier) for interaction (Verified)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 54 and Extra 15 are within size rules; Miscellaneousaurus over copy limit (3 vs 1); Cross-Sheep Forbidden and run once; Side Deck is empty
• Inferred: Archetype core present in about 95 percent of 5-card openers; Engine conversion ability from card text; Interaction layering from text and flags
• Provisional: Meta Power is null; Matchup and format fit are provisional
• Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link, so archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN No Side Deck, so no post-side evidence Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample
