World Legacy Deck #769864 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

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

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Orcust and World Legacy Link and Xyz boards (Enlilgirsu, Dingirsu, Galatea) that turn the Link zone into pressure and recursion; Elfnote Synchro and Link beats (Elfnote June Pride 3100, Elfnote Lucina 2500, Elfnote Tinia 2400) once the Main Monster Zone is established
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a starter (Mulcharmy, Girsu, Orcust Harp Horror, Ghost Belle or Ghost Ogre) to reach a Link or Xyz summon and protect it with Crescendo, Ash Blossom, Maxx C or Mind Mirror Force (Inferred, text-only)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Ghost Belle, Droll and Maxx C for the opponent's first Special Summon or activation, then Dominus Impulse or Mind Mirror Force the follow-up (Inferred, text-only)
• Recovery: Orcust GY recursion (Harp Horror, Cymbal Skeleton, Girsu) plus Orcustrated Babel and Galatea-I to rebuild a Link Monster from the GY (Inferred)
• After siding: Not assessable: the deck runs no Side Deck (side 0), so there is no post-side plan (verified from legality counts)

Why it scores here

The deck is Illegal in OCG because it runs one copy of Saryuja Skull Dread, which is Forbidden, so under the Step 2 rule it receives a capped, structural-only score of 30 rather than a normal contextual score. Structural power was computed from the Midrange profile at about 56 and not from averaging card scores. Its strongest structural feature is the 25-copy Orcust/World Legacy core, which is present in 96 percent of opening 5-card hands (Inferred hypergeometric), together with 10 hand traps that hit the opponent's going-second openings. The deck has no recorded boards, no Side Deck, and no tournament or meta data, so floor, median and ceiling cannot be separated and the score carries low confidence. Popularity or usage stats did not earn points, and the card-level strength of the Elfnote and Orcust Link monsters was not treated as deck power.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 56, Going First ≈ 58, Going Second ≈ 60, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-8); no_side_deck (-4). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability = 54.8; modifiers total -12 = 42.8; Illegal cap (Step 2) sets final to 30, theoretical/structural-only

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.96 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.04 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Core Orcust/World Legacy engine is very likely to be live in the opening hand (Inferred)
• 10 hand traps and layered negations/removal (Inferred)
• Full 15-card Extra Deck with Link, Synchro and Xyz coverage (Verified)

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: Saryuja Skull Dread is Forbidden (Verified)
• Low exact-archetype purity (2.9 percent) suggests a cobbled toolbox rather than a single engine (Verified)
• No Side Deck (Verified)
• No recorded boards, so the ceiling and median are unmeasured (Verified)

Critical choke points

• Saryuja Skull Dread in the Extra Deck is an illegal card and must be removed before the list can be played
• Orcust Link cards require an Orcust Link monster on the field to extend, so the engine stalls if the first Link is answered (Inferred)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Saryuja Skull Dread (74997493) is Forbidden and run once, making the deck Illegal; Main 55 and Extra 15 are within the OCG size rules; Side count is 0; Copy histogram 19 singletons, 6 doubles, 8 triples
• Inferred: Core engine opens with P ≈ 0.96 in a 5-card opening hand; Hand-trap coverage of ≈ 0.72 going second; Orcust GY recursion gives a second route after one interruption
• Provisional: Meta and matchup fit (no dated meta sample); Tournament reliability and floor/median (no recorded boards)
• Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link — archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN — going-first/second, matchup, brick and starter rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied No Side Deck supplied
