Kewl Tune Deck #769885 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 41 / Extra 14 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro and Fusion boards led by Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit Dragon, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, Stardust Sifr and Dragon Master Magia, with Blue-Eyes White Dragon as the core starter; Blue-Eyes Chaos MAX Dragon via Ritual Summon through Chaos Form and Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon via Toon World
• Turn 1 (going first): Search and summon Blue-Eyes White Dragon or a Tuner with Wishes, Bingo Machine or Kaibaman, then Synchro or Fusion into a boss while Maxx C and Droll hold off the opponent's draws
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the six-card hand's hand traps (Ash Blossom, Effect Veiler, Droll and Lock Bird, Maxx C) to stop the opponent's first board, then rebuild through Blue-Eyes searchers
• Recovery: Rebuild from the Graveyard through Spirit with Eyes of Blue, Kaibaman and Crimson Dragon's recursion, and Roar of the Blue-Eyed Dragons
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a system: 18 searchers and 6 hand traps give a high chance of a live searcher in hand, and the Blue-Eyes core gives a strong finisher line. Its interaction is spread across six hand traps and several negate effects on Extra Deck monsters, which keeps the mid-game board open. The weaknesses are the sprawl across Blue-Eyes, Dominus, Toon, Bystial, Fleur and Stardust, with only 1.8% exact-archetype purity, and the absence of a Side Deck, which removes any post-side plan. Popularity of the Kewl Tune archetype did not earn points, and card scores were not averaged into the deck score. The Forbidden Baronne de Fleur caps the final score, so the number is structural only.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 57.2, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-10); engine conflicts (-3). Final formula: Raw: 0.80*Structural(57.2) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(50) + Modifiers(-13) = 42.8; Illegal cap applied: score = 35 (theoretical/structural only). Meta Power provisional.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.33 · 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

• Searcher density of 18 cards gives near-certain access to a searcher in the opening hand
• Six hand traps and several negate effects give layered disruption on both turns
• Strong Dragon boss ceiling with Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, Dragon Master Magia and Chaos MAX

Weaknesses

• Baronne de Fleur is Forbidden in OCG and is run, so the list is illegal
• Off-archetype sprawl: 54 of 55 Main and Extra copies do not carry the exact Kewl Tune name
• No Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan
• No combo data, so consistency and median output are inferred from text alone

Critical choke points

• The Forbidden Baronne de Fleur must be removed before the deck is legal
• Blue-Eyes White Dragon is the single starter with only about 33% of getting one in a 5-card hand

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Baronne de Fleur Forbidden, 1 copy run (illegal); Main 41 and Extra 14 within OCG size limits; Side 0; Searcher, hand-trap and removal text counts from the resolved cards; Hypergeometric probabilities from the resolved list
• Observed: Archetype composition: 1.8% exact-name purity, 20 Blue-Eyes copies and 17 generic cards; Usage stats: 5 of 16 core cards present (31.2%)
• Inferred: Consistency estimates (D1, D2) based on hypergeometric draw odds and card text; Interaction quality from negate text on Dragon Master Magia, Blue-Eyes Spirit, Stardust and Ultimate Spirit; Closing power from boss ATK and piercing text
• Provisional: Meta Power is null; no dated metagame sample supplied; D13 matchup and format fit is unverified without tournament data
• 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 match record are absent one passcode in the list (23995346) could not be resolved and is counted as main no Side Deck, so post-side evaluation is not possible no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN; going-first and going-second splits are Inferred Meta Power is provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
