Magician Girls Deck #770000 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 25/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Mechanic: Ritual / Link / Fusion
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 59 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Boss monsters from the Ritual / Link / Fusion pool (Black Chaos, Silent Magician, Dark Paladin, Accesscode Talker, Galaxy-Eyes Photon Lord) built off Dark Magician and Dark Magician Girl pressure; Mulcharmy draw-and-advantage engine plus Garura and Dark Magician of Destruction as fallback extenders
• Turn 1 (going first): Turn 1 Normal Summon Dark Magician Girl or Magician's Rod, then search a Dark Magician or Light and Darkness Ritual spell to reach a Ritual or Link boss; Ash Blossom and Droll & Lock Bird protect the first play
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Maxx C, Red Reboot, Solemn Judgment and Droll & Lock Bird for the opponent's first turn, then rebuild through Mulcharmy draws and searches
• Recovery: Searchers (21 searcher-text cards) and Mulcharmy draws refill the hand; Shining Sarcophagus and Soul Servant recur Dark Magician-named cards
• After siding: Not supported: side_count is 0, so there is no post-side plan and the deck cannot be tuned between games

Why it scores here

This deck is illegal in OCG: three Forbidden cards (Magicians' Souls, Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon, Cross-Sheep) are each run at 1 copy, and the deck has no Side Deck, so the score is capped low and the evaluation is structural-only. Structurally it is a Midrange-to-Toolbox shell that opens on searchers and hand traps and converts into Ritual, Link and Fusion bosses. Consistency is middling: the 3-copy engine cards have only about a 24% chance of appearing in a 5-card opening hand, while 21 searcher-text cards give a roughly 90% chance of at least one searcher, so hands are rarely dead but often disjointed. Interaction is the strongest part of the system, with 8 hand traps and several negations and removal effects. Popularity is not counted: the archetype usage stats show only a partial core (4 of 11 core cards present), and no points were earned for that. No card scores were averaged or summed.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: 100% Midrange (Toolbox not blended). Structural ≈ 44, Going First ≈ 47, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: Banlist exposure (-10); Engine conflicts (-2). Final formula: Theoretical: 0.80*Structural(44) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(40) + modifiers(-12) = 31; capped at 25 because the list is Illegal. Meta Power provisional and excluded.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.24 · 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

• Dense searcher density (21 searcher-text cards) keeps most hands functional
• Eight hand traps and several negations give layered interaction
• Ritual, Link and Fusion bosses with 2800 to 3500 ATK give a real closing threat

Weaknesses

• Three Forbidden cards make the list illegal in OCG
• No Side Deck, so no best-of-3 adaptation
• Mixed sub-archetype engine with 0% exact archetype purity
• Only 4 of 11 archetype core cards are present

Critical choke points

• Light and Darkness Ritual spell as the only route to the main Ritual bosses
• Dark Magician or Dark Magician Girl on the field to enable most engine effects

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: 3 Forbidden cards run (Magicians' Souls, Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon, Cross-Sheep); 59 main, 15 extra, 0 side; copy histogram 23 / 3 / 10; Limited and Semi-Limited copy counts are within their legal limits; Card text and archetype spread from the evidence pack
• Observed: Usage stats: 4 of 11 core cards present (36.4%)
• Inferred: Opening-hand probabilities from the hypergeometric table; Interaction density and hand-trap value from card text; Dimension scores D1 to D11 and D14
• Provisional: Meta Power and D13 matchup fit (no dated metagame sample)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot records are absent No side deck: post-side plan cannot be assessed No win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second or matchups Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample
