Blackwings Deck #770061 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 58 / Extra 17 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 5 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro Summon Blackwing and Black-Winged Dragon bosses (Assault Dragon, Full Armor Master, Silverwind, Kusanagi) and attack through a board cleared by hand traps and Blackwing negates; Bystial Dis Pater or Chaos Angel removal-backed follow-up when the Blackwing line is interrupted
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Blackwing searcher or tuner, use Shamal, Vata, Sudri, or Gale to extend, and Synchro into a 2800 to 3200 ATK boss; hold Ash Blossom and Ghost Belle for the opponent's first activation
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Droll and Lock Bird, or Evenly Matched to break the opponent's starter, then rebuild through Black Whirlwind and Small World into a Synchro boss
• Recovery: Recover via Blackwing GY effects (Zephyros, Gale, Oroshi) and Black Feather Whirlwind, which bring back Blackwing monsters or Black-Winged Dragon from GY or banish
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens Blackwing searchers and tuners (17 searcher-text cards, about 84 percent at least one in a 5-card opening hand per the searcher group estimate) and has 10 hand traps, so its interaction is stronger than its combo output suggests. Its Synchro bosses at 2800 to 3200 ATK give it closing power once a line resolves, and the Blackwing GY recursion supports recovery. Structural score is about 55 on the Midrange profile, but Illegal status caps the final score at 35 and marks this as theoretical only. No combo boards, tournament data or side deck exist, so median output, matchup fit and post-side scores are Provisional or Inferred. Popularity and archetype stats did not earn points: the only usage-stat core card, Silverwind, is absent, and the card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 55, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 55, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 48. Modifiers: Banlist and copy-limit exposure (-8); Extra Deck size overflow (-2). Final formula: Illegal cap: uncapped 0.80*Structural(55) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(48) + modifiers(-10) = about 44; capped to 35 for Illegal legality. Meta provisional (null).

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 and tuner access (17 searcher-text cards)
• Ten hand traps with Blackwing negates give layered interaction
• Synchro bosses at 2800 to 3200 ATK with GY recursion for recovery

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Forbidden card and three over-limit cards
• Extra Deck over the OCG limit by 2
• No Side Deck, so no post-side plan
• No recorded combos, so median output is unverified

Critical choke points

• Dependence on Blackwing Tuners (Shamal, Vata, Sudri, Gale) to make the first Synchro
• Excess copies of Allure of Darkness and Ash Blossom are not legal in OCG

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: Crystal Wing is Forbidden and three cards are over copy limits; Extra Deck of 17 exceeds the OCG maximum of 15; No Side Deck present
• Inferred: Midrange profile with 10 hand traps and 17 searchers; Structural score 55 from rubric dimensions; Going-first and going-second estimates, which rest on card text only; Probability estimates for starter and brick rates
• Provisional: Meta Power (null, no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit and tournament reliability (no tournament link)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median, and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry: going-first, going-second, matchup, and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown No side deck: post-side performance cannot be assessed Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
