Blitzclique Deck #769707 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Thunder monster beatdown supported by Blitzclique removal and Extra Deck boss monsters (Whisker Blitzclique, Thunder Dragon Colossus, Super Starslayer TY-PHON, Underworld Goddess).; Link and Fusion boards built through Mediclius, Selene, Accesscode Talker and Knightmare Phoenix, with Blitzclique removal clearing blockers.
• Turn 1 (going first): Turn 1: search or Special Summon a Thunder starter (Surge, Crackle or Grain Blitzclique) through hand effects, use Blitzclique removal on the opponent's key card, and build toward a Link or Xyz boss.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Maxx C, Droll and Lock Bird, Dominus Purge) to break the opponent's first combo, then rebuild the board with Thunder monsters and removal.
• Recovery: Blitzclique recursion through Blitzclique Return Stroke and Breakaway in the GY, plus archetype searchers (Emi, Alternator), restores the board after a single interruption.
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no side deck, so there is no post-side plan. Adding a side deck is the main correction.

Why it scores here

The deck opens its core engine reliably: the 27-copy Blitzclique archetype group has about a 97 percent chance of at least one card in a 5-card opening hand, and all 12 core cards are present in the list. Its interaction is layered, with six hand traps, several Blitzclique removal and negation effects, and recursion through Return Stroke and Breakaway, so it can continue through one disruption. Its ceiling comes from Extra Deck bosses (Whisker Blitzclique, Super Starslayer TY-PHON, Underworld Goddess, Thunder Dragon Colossus). The score is capped low because the list is Illegal: Albion the Branded Dragon is run 3 copies against a Forbidden limit of 0. There is no combo, tournament or win-rate data, so the floor, median and matchup dimensions are Inferred or Provisional. Popularity and archetype usage did not earn points, and card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary, Balanced secondary (structural weights from the Midrange profile). Structural ≈ 59, Going First ≈ 62, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: banlist_exposure_illegal_copy_limit (-12). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional), then banlist modifier; Illegal list capped low, theoretical only

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.97 · 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

• Core archetype access is very high (about 97 percent of 5-card hands contain a core card)
• Layered interaction: six hand traps, Blitzclique removal, Return Stroke negation and Dominus Purge
• Real Extra Deck boss density (Super Starslayer TY-PHON, Underworld Goddess, Whisker Blitzclique via Thunder support)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Albion the Branded Dragon run 3 copies against a Forbidden limit
• No side deck, so no post-side plan
• Low archetype purity (28.6 percent exact name) and many off-archetype staples dilute the engine
• No combo or tournament evidence to confirm floor, median or matchups

Critical choke points

• Albion the Branded Dragon (3 copies, Forbidden) occupies Extra Deck slots and makes the list illegal as built
• Thunder starters depend on a few once-per-turn Effect Monster restrictions, so one negated starter can stall the line
• Blitzclique recursion depends on Return Stroke and Breakaway staying in the GY

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Albion the Branded Dragon run 3 copies with 0 legal copies, status Illegal; Main 55 and Extra 15 are within the OCG size rules; Side 0; All 12 usage core cards are present (100 percent); Other restricted cards (Maxx C, Droll, Appointer, Pot of Prosperity, S:P Little Knight, Ash Blossom, Pot of Extravagance, Fallen and Virtuous) are at or below their legal copy limits
• Inferred: Opening-hand odds (archetype core 0.97, Thunder starters) from hypergeometric estimate; Interaction density and hand-trap resilience read from card text; Extra Deck boss power ceiling from ATK and text; Going-first and going-second splits from hand-trap and removal density
• Provisional: Meta Power is null: no dated metagame sample; Matchup fit (D13) is provisional: no tournament data
• Data gaps: No combos supplied; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry; going-first, going-second and matchup results are unknown Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample The deck is Illegal, so the score is theoretical and capped low
