P.U.N.K. Deck #769807 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Large Synchro, Xyz and Link boards from the P.U.N.K. engine plus Galaxy/Tachyon and Photon boss monsters, e.g. Dragluxion, Number 107 and Photon Howling; Hand-trap and negation-protected Xyz or Synchro boards that stall the opponent into a late-game Extra Deck advantage
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a P.U.N.K. starter (Ze Amin, Foxy Tune, Ogre Dance, Deer Note or Rising Scale) and use it to Special Summon into a Synchro or Xyz boss, protected by Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre or Red Reboot
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold a hand-trap-heavy six-card hand (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Ghost Sister, Droll and Lock Bird, Maxx C) to answer the opponent's first board, then rebuild through the P.U.N.K. engine
• Recovery: Recover via the P.U.N.K. graveyard revival effects (Deer Note, Rising Scale, JAM Extreme Session) and Mulcharmy draw effects when the board is cleared
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan; the list cannot adapt between games

Why it scores here

The deck is capped at 25 because its list is illegal: Triple Tactics Talent is Forbidden and is run once, so this is a theoretical, structural-only read. Structurally it reliably gets a P.U.N.K. monster in hand about 92% of the time on the going-first five-card draw (hypergeometric, Inferred), so the engine is accessible, but each individual starter has only about a 25% chance to appear. Going second, the 9 hand traps give about a 68% chance of at least one interaction card in the six-card hand, which carries most of the deck's value. Its closing power comes from several 3000+ ATK Xyz, Synchro and Link bosses, but there are no recorded boards, so the ceiling and median are text-only inferences. Popularity did not earn points: P.U.N.K. is a real archetype, but only 21 of 70 Main and Extra copies are exact P.U.N.K. names, and the score was built from the system, not by averaging card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 54, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-6); no_side_deck (-4). Final formula: Uncapped: 0.80*Structural(54) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) + modifiers(-10) = 42; Illegal cap applied, final score 25 (theoretical, structural-only). Meta Provisional.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.92 · 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

• Engine access is high at 0.92 for a P.U.N.K. monster in the going-first hand (Inferred)
• Layered interaction with 9 hand traps, 16 negation texts and 19 removal texts (Inferred)
• Strong Extra Deck closers at 3000+ ATK plus Photon Howling at 4500 ATK (Verified stats)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Triple Tactics Talent is Forbidden (Verified)
• No side deck, so no post-side adaptation (Verified)
• Low exact-archetype purity at 30% and mixed engines (Verified composition)
• High non-monster count at 22 of 55 Main cards (Verified composition)

Critical choke points

• Single P.U.N.K. starter in hand, since each 3-copy starter appears in about 25% of going-first hands (Inferred)
• LP-cost effects chained through the P.U.N.K. engine (Verified card text)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Illegal, Triple Tactics Talent (Forbidden) run 1 copy with 0 legal copies; Size 55 Main / 15 Extra / 0 Side, all within size rules; Composition: 21 of 70 exact P.U.N.K. copies, 30% purity; Boss stats: Dragluxion 2500/3000, Number 107 3000/2500, Photon Howling 4500/3000
• Inferred: P(>=1 P.U.N.K. in going-first hand) ~ 0.92; P(>=1 hand trap in going-second hand) ~ 0.68; Interaction density and brick estimates from card text; Going-first and going-second split from text and probability
• Provisional: Meta Power (null) and matchup fit (D13) need a dated metagame sample; Floor and median output, since no boards are recorded
• Data gaps: Deck is Illegal because of Triple Tactics Talent; the score is capped and theoretical No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent No side deck registered usage_statistics in_this_deck flags conflict with the extra-deck list: P.U.N.K. JAM Dragon Drive, Ukiyoe-P.U.N.K. Rising Carp, P.U.N.K. JAM FEVER! and Psychic End Punisher are present in the Extra zone but flagged in_this_deck=false, so core_present_pct (70.6) is unreliable No win-rate telemetry; Meta Power provisional
