Branded Deck #770124 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 13 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra-Deck Synchro/Xyz boss (Psychic End Punisher, Super Starslayer TY-PHON - Sky Crisis, Enigmaster Packbit) reached through the Blitzclique searcher and destruction chain; Whisker Blitzclique (3000 ATK) is the main-deck finisher; The Dragon that Devours the Dogma Fusion, but only if a Fallen of Albaz is available as material, and no Fallen of Albaz is in this list
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Blitzclique starter (Surge, Crackle, Grain, Emi, or Breakaway), search or summon a second Thunder engine, and reach a Synchro boss while Typhoon or Solemn-type cards answer the opponent's backrow
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Droll & Lock Bird, Solemn Warning, Solemn Judgment, Thunder King Rai-Oh, or the Blitzclique trap-negation effects to break the opening turn, then rebuild through Blitzclique searches
• Recovery: Blitzclique Overvolt and Breakaway recover from the GY after a Blitzclique card's effect destroys something; Mulcharmy draw effects refill hand once the field is empty
• After siding: Not applicable: the deck registers zero Side Deck cards, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The list has a real Blitzclique engine: 19 searcher-text cards and about 0.89 probability of at least one starter in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred), so it reliably gets going on turn 1. Its Extra Deck supplies high-ATK closers and the field has strong layered interaction (45 removal-text cards, 12 negation-text cards), which pushes the structural score up. The deck does not earn points for archetype popularity, and no card scores were averaged. Three things drag the score down: the illegal third copy of The Fallen & The Virtuous, the absence of Fallen of Albaz (which the Dragon that Devours the Dogma Fusion requires), and an empty Side Deck that leaves no post-side adaptation. Because the list is Illegal, the final score is capped at 30 and the result is theoretical/structural only.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 57, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 55, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 48. Modifiers: Banlist and copy-limit exposure (-4); No Side Deck (-3); Dependence on an absent Extra-Deck enabler (-3). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers = 0.80*57.3 + 0.20*48 - 10 = 45.4, then capped at 30 because the list is Illegal (theoretical/structural-only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.89 · 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 Blitzclique searcher and starter count gives high first-turn access (Inferred)
• Layered interaction: many removal and negation effects, including Solemn traps and Whisker Blitzclique (Verified text)
• High-ATK Extra-Deck closers reach 2900 to 3500 ATK (Verified stats)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: The Fallen & The Virtuous is run 3 times against a limit of 2
• No Side Deck, so zero post-side adaptation
• Fallen of Albaz is absent, so the Dragon that Devours the Dogma Fusion is largely inaccessible
• Archetype coherence is low: exact Branded name purity is 4.4% and the Blitzclique engine carries the list

Critical choke points

• Blitzclique starters are the entire opening: if none is in hand, the deck stalls (Inferred)
• The 3-copy Fallen & The Virtuous violates the copy limit and must be cut before the list is playable
• Extra-Deck boss access depends on a summon and recursion chain with no materialised combo data

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: The Fallen & The Virtuous runs 3 copies against a limit of 2 (Semi-Limited); Main 55, Extra 13, Side 0 are within size rules; Fallen of Albaz is absent; the Dragon that Devours the Dogma text names it as Fusion material; Card stats and printed text for Blitzclique, Synchro and Xyz cards
• Observed: Usage statistics: Fallen of Albaz 54.6% inclusion and Ecclesia and the Dark Dragon 83.5% are missing from this list
• Inferred: P(at least one starter in 5) about 0.89 (searcher group); Engine accessibility and brick rate estimates; Interaction density and resilience scores
• Provisional: Meta Power (null); Matchup and format fit (no dated metagame)
• 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 for going-first, going-second, matchup, brick or OTK rates Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck title is null
