Junk Deck #770025 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Tempo, Synchro
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 43 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro Summon large Synchro boss monsters (Majestic Star Dragon, Bystial Dis Pater, Kewl Tune B2B, Ekhajar) off Junk Synchron / Junk Meister / Stardust-Warrior tuner lines; Recursion-based follow-up through Junk Synchron, Jet Synchron, Starjunk Synchron and Scrap Synchron graveyard effects
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon a Junk Synchron or Junk Meister, search a Junk card or Synchro enabler, then reach a Synchro Summon for a Dragon boss; Junk Meister searches (3 copies, P>=1 in opening 5 = 0.32) provide the starter redundancy
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand-trap backed setup (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Infinite Impermanence, Maxx C, Droll & Lock Bird) to stop the opponent's first board, then Synchro through the reset; P>=1 hand trap in opening 6 is 0.82 (Inferred)
• Recovery: Graveyard tuner effects (Jet Synchron, Starjunk Synchron, Scrap Synchron) and searchers to rebuild Synchro material after a board is broken
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck supplies no side deck, so there is no post-side plan to score

Why it scores here

The Junk list reliably finds its starters on the theoretical structure: Junk Meister (3 copies) and the searchers give a 0.32 chance of at least one in an opening 5, and 12 searcher-text cards give 0.82 for at least one searcher (Inferred). Its Synchro boss monsters have high ATK, and the 15 Extra Deck slots are full, so offensive ceiling is real. Interaction is broad on the text read (10 hand traps, 15 negation-text cards, 19 removal-text cards) but these are not verified by recorded boards. The deck scores below the structural baseline because it is illegal: Baronne de Fleur is Forbidden in OCG and is run at 1 copy, and the list has no side deck. Popularity (Junk archetype usage stats) and card-level power were not used, and card scores were not averaged; there are no recorded combos or tournament results, so the floor and median are estimated from text alone. The raw structural and final calculation before the legality cap is about 47; the illegal-deck cap brings it to 35.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 55.2, Going First ≈ 52, Going Second ≈ 56, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (Forbidden card in Extra Deck) (-6); Illegal-deck cap (-12). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers = 0.80*55.2 + 0.20*45 - 6 = 47.2 raw; capped at 35 because the list is Illegal (Forbidden card in Extra Deck); theoretical/structural only

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.32 · 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

• Several starters and searchers give redundant opening access (Junk Meister x3, 12 searcher-text cards)
• Broad hand-trap and negation text (10 hand traps, 15 negation-text cards)
• High-ATK Synchro boss monsters fill all 15 Extra Deck slots

Weaknesses

• Illegal: Baronne de Fleur is Forbidden and run at 1 copy
• No side deck (0 cards), so no post-side plan
• Low archetype purity (17.2% exact-name), with 21 generic and 48 off-archetype copies
• No recorded combos, so the floor and median are unmeasured

Critical choke points

• Synchro Summon on the 15-card Extra Deck depends on the tuner lines (Junk Synchron, Jet, Starjunk, Scrap) being live in hand or GY
• A single Junk Meister or Junk Synchron as the only starter in many openings (Inferred)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: Baronne de Fleur is Forbidden in OCG and run at 1 copy; Main deck 43 cards and Extra Deck 15 cards are within the OCG size rule; Side deck contains 0 cards; Copy counts for Junk Meister (3), Junk Synchron (2) and Ash Blossom (2) match the banlist limits
• Observed: No recorded boards or combos exist for this deck; no observed frequencies are available
• Inferred: P(>=1 starter in opening 5) = 0.32 from hypergeometric estimate; P(>=1 hand trap in opening 6) = 0.82 going second; Interaction breadth from card text (15 negation, 19 removal); Synchro boss ATK ceiling and closing read
• Provisional: Meta power and matchup fit: no dated metagame sample or tournament data exists; Tournament reliability: no tournament or win-rate data
• Data gaps: no combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick/starter/OTK rates) no side deck: post-side plan cannot be scored no guides attached: 0 guides for the archetype deck title is null Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
