Exosister Deck #769874 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Xyz Summon Exosister Magnifica, Mikailis, Karmael or Kaspitell and attack for 2300 to 2800 ATK, with second attacks from Magnifica; Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS and Super Starslayer TY-PHON are in the Extra Deck list only as off-archetype finishers (see note: 0 copies of ZEUS and TY-PHON are in the resolved list)
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon or Special Summon Exosister Elis / Martha / Sophia / Stella from hand, use Exosister Pax or Betrayal to find the next Exosister, then Xyz Summon from the Extra Deck using Exosister monsters as material
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Droll & Lock Bird and Forbidden Droplet to answer the opponent's first boards, then convert with Exosister Xyz monsters
• Recovery: Exosister Returnia and Exosister Vadis reset or recycle board presence, Exosister Betrayal and Exosister Irene refill hand, Exosister Pax refills from the Deck for 800 LP
• After siding: No side deck is registered (side_count 0), so there is no post-side plan; the deck cannot adapt between games in a best-of-3

Why it scores here

This list reliably opens an Exosister engine: 29 archetype-core copies give a near-certain (0.9993) chance of at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand, and Elis, Martha, Pax and Betrayal each run 3 copies, so the starter route is strong and redundant (Inferred from the hypergeometric estimate and the usage-stat core list). Conversion comes from Exosister Xyz Summons into Magnifica, Mikailis, Karmael and Kaspitell, with real closing power at 2300 to 2800 ATK and Magnifica's second attack, but no recorded boards exist, so the ceiling and median are text-only inferences. Interaction is layered (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Droll & Lock Bird, Forbidden Droplet, Crossout Designator, Carpedivem), yet the deck is Illegal: Triple Tactics Talent is Forbidden and Ash Blossom is over its Semi-Limited limit, so the score is capped to a theoretical, structural-only read. Popularity did not earn points: the Exosister usage core (94.7% inclusion for Elis) confirms the list is real, not that it is strong, and the score was built from the system dimensions rather than by averaging card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 63.2, Going First ≈ 63, Going Second ≈ 61, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 55. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12). Final formula: Unclamped: 0.80*Structural(63.2) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(55) + modifiers(-12) = 49.6; Illegal-deck cap applied: score = 35 (theoretical/structural-only, no normal Final score). Meta Power provisional/null.

Probability & combo summary

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

Strengths

• Consistent Exosister starter access with 3-copy Elis, Martha, Pax and Betrayal
• Layered interaction from 8 hand traps and multiple negation and removal effects
• Strong Xyz finishers at 2300 to 2800 ATK, with Magnifica's second attack

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Forbidden Triple Tactics Talent and an over-limit Ash Blossom
• No side deck, so no post-side adaptability
• Off-archetype copies (23) dilute the engine
• LP-hungry activations (Pax, Elis, Returnia) limit repeated use

Critical choke points

• Exosister monster in hand to open the Xyz route
• Ash Blossom and the hand traps as the sole answer to a going-second opponent
• Xyz Summon needs two Level 4 Exosister materials on the field

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Triple Tactics Talent is Forbidden (legal 0, run 1); Ash Blossom is Semi-Limited (legal 2, run 3); Main Deck 40, Extra Deck 15, Side Deck 0 against OCG size rules; Exact-name Exosister purity 58.2%; 14 Xyz and 1 Link in the Extra Deck
• Observed: Archetype usage core: Elis 94.7%, Martha 92.1%, Pax 86.8% inclusion (usage statistics)
• Inferred: At least one archetype-core card in 5 cards is 0.9993 (hypergeometric); Xyz conversion and closing power derived from card text; Interaction layering and going-second answer read from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power is null; no dated metagame sample; Matchup fit (D13) and side adaptability (D12) are unscored by 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/second, matchup, brick/starter rates) Meta Power is provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck is illegal: score capped to theoretical, structural-only No side deck, so no post-side evidence
