GMX Deck #769743 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 56 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 4 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion or Synchro summon a 3000+ ATK Dinosaur boss (GMX - ALLOS, GMX - VELOX, Jurrac Meteor, Transcendosaurus Gigantozowler) off the GMX/Dinosaur engine, then press with direct and piercing attacks; Synchro or Link boards built from Jurrac and Mulcharmy draw bodies, backed by Ash Blossom and Droll & Lock Bird interaction
• Turn 1 (going first): Turn 1 Normal Summon an engine monster (GMX Researcher Selande, Souleating Oviraptor, or Miscellaneousaurus if legal) to search or Special Summon a Dinosaur, then take a Fusion or Synchro summon on turn 2 while holding Ash Blossom
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, or Maxx C to answer the opponent's first summon, then rebuild a Dinosaur board through Fossil Dig and the Mulcharmy draw engine
• Recovery: Recover through the GY: Jurrac and Dinosaur monsters return via Megalosmasher or Petiteranodon-style GY effects, and Ground Xeno or Double Evolution Pill refill the hand
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs 0 side cards in a format that allows up to 15, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck is Illegal in OCG: Miscellaneousaurus runs 3 copies against a limit of 1, and Triple Tactics Talent, Cross-Sheep and Baronne de Fleur are Forbidden, so the score is capped and treated as theoretical and structural only. Structurally, the GMX and Dinosaur engine has a high probability of opening at least one core piece (about 0.89 with a 5-card hand), and the 15 searchers give reasonable access to the engine. The Extra Deck offers strong closing bodies at 3000 to 3800 ATK, and the Ash Blossom, Droll and Maxx C package gives redundant answers to early summons. Against that, the list is diluted by off-archetype cards (about 90 percent of copies are not exact-name GMX), has no combo boards to measure a real floor or median, and has no side deck. Popularity and the usage-statistics core do not add points here, and card scores were not averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary, Combo secondary (no combo evidence, so Midrange weights are used as-is). Structural ≈ 50, Going First ≈ 48, Going Second ≈ 46, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-10); no side deck (-2). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability = 48, plus modifiers -12 = 36, then capped at 30 because the deck is Illegal (theoretical / structural only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.89 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.11 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• GMX and Dinosaur engine with a high chance of opening at least one core piece
• 15 searchers give reasonable access to the engine
• Several 3000+ ATK Extra Deck bosses for closing
• Redundant interaction (Ash Blossom x2, Droll, Maxx C) against early summons

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: four copy-limit or Forbidden violations
• Heavy off-archetype dilution (about 90 percent of main-deck copies are not exact-name GMX)
• No side deck
• No recorded combos, so the real floor and median are unknown

Critical choke points

• Turn-1 engine summon: a dead hand with no engine monster stalls the whole line
• Going-first hands with only hand traps and no starter

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Deck is Illegal: Miscellaneousaurus 3 copies against limit 1; Triple Tactics Talent, Cross-Sheep and Baronne de Fleur are Forbidden; Main 56 and Extra 15 are within the OCG size rules; Side 0 is within the 0-15 range; Exact-name GMX purity 9.9%; composition counts from the evidence pack
• Inferred: Opening-hand consistency from hypergeometric odds (0.89 core, 0.80 searcher, 0.11 brick proxy); Interaction and recursion redundancy read from card text; Boss closing power read from ATK values and text
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup and format fit (no tournament link)
• 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 (going-first/second, matchup, brick and starter rates) Meta Power is provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck title is null and the deck has 0 side cards
