Blackwings Deck #769938 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

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

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro boss pressure (Blackwing Silverwind, Colossal Fighter, Blackwing Armor Master, Goyo Guardian) backed by Blackwing tuner-based Synchro Summons; Dark Armed Dragon and Dark End Dragon as going-second board breakers after the interaction suite clears the field
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Blackwing starter (Blizzard, Bora, Shura, Sirocco, Kalut) and Black Whirlwind or a draw trap to find a tuner; Synchro into a boss while holding interaction for the opponent's response
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the 6-card hand to present interaction (Dimensional Prison, Solemn Judgment, Bottomless Trap Hole, D.D. Crow) on the opponent's first summon, then rebuild a Blackwing Synchro board
• Recovery: Blackwing Vayu banishes from the GY to Synchro Summon, Delta Crow and Black Whirlwind search, and Allure of Darkness / Jar of Greed / Legacy of Yata-Garasu refill the hand
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered, so no post-side plan exists in this list; a side deck would be required to adjust matchups

Why it scores here

The score is built from the deck as a system, not from its cards or from Blackwings' popularity. Starter access is modest: each 3-copy starter has about a 25% chance of appearing in a 5-card opening hand, and the two searchers (Black Whirlwind) give only partial redundancy. Interaction is the deck's strongest layer, with roughly 27 removal-text and 9 negation-text cards, which lifts the endboard and going-second dimensions. Output and consistency are unverified because no recorded boards, combos, or tournament results exist, so the combo dimensions are text-only inference and carry low weight. The list is Illegal because Trap Dustshoot is Forbidden in OCG, so the Final Contextual score is capped at 30 regardless of the structural read, and the deck has no Side Deck, which weakens dimension 12 further.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary, Control secondary; structural weights used as published for Midrange. Structural ≈ 50, Going First ≈ 46, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-10); no_side_deck (-2). Final formula: Raw 0.80*Structural(50) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(40) + Modifiers(-12) = 36, capped at 30 because legality is Illegal (theoretical/structural-only); Meta Power provisional (null)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.25 · 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

• Layered interaction suite: about 27 removal-text and 9 negation-text cards
• Two Synchro routes (Armor Master and Armed Wing) with Blackwing tuners
• Going-second board breakers (Dark Armed Dragon, Dark End Dragon, Mind Control, Brain Control)
• Multiple draw and recovery engines (Black Whirlwind, Allure of Darkness, Jar of Greed)

Weaknesses

• Illegal in OCG: Trap Dustshoot is Forbidden
• No Side Deck at all
• Low exact-name Blackwing purity (0%) with 70 off-archetype copies and a diffuse engine
• High non-monster count (22 Traps and 11 Spells) raises brick risk
• Core card Blackwing Silverwind (60% archetype inclusion) is absent

Critical choke points

• Starter monsters are 3-copy Blackwings with roughly 25% chance each to appear in the opening five
• Searcher count is only 2 (Black Whirlwind)
• Trap Dustshoot's Forbidden status makes the list unplayable as built

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Trap Dustshoot is Forbidden in OCG and runs 1 copy; Main Deck 55 and Extra Deck 15 are within OCG size rules; No Side Deck is registered; Blackwing Silverwind is present in usage stats at 60% inclusion and absent from this deck
• Observed: Composition counts: 22 Traps, 11 Spells, 22 monsters, 14 Synchros, 1 Fusion
• Inferred: Starter and brick estimates from hypergeometric draw odds; Interaction density from card text; Going-first and going-second estimates
• Provisional: Meta power and matchup fit (no tournament or dated metagame sample)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median, and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and pilot records are absent No win-rate telemetry: going-first/second, matchup, and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample No Side Deck registered
