Legality

Main 57 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 7 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Level 10 Sacred Beast / Phantasm boss monsters (Raviel, Hamon, The Chaotic Phantasmal Sacred Beasts) and Fiendsmith fusions, if the list were legal; Fiendsmith's Desirae and Luce the Dusk's Dark as large Extra Deck threats
  • Turn 1 (going first): Search with the dense searcher suite (Sacred Beasts Released, Thunderclap, Martyr, Fiendsmith's Tract) toward a Level 10 Sacred Beast, then pressure or protect with hand traps. Theoretical: the list is illegal.
  • Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Effect Veiler and Infinite Impermanence to answer the opponent's first engine, then rebuild through the searchers. Theoretical: the list is illegal.
  • Recovery: Recursion is limited to Martyr of the Sacred Beasts, Fiendsmith Engraver (GY revival) and Fallen Paradise of the Sacred Beasts; the Phantasm recovery text is present but unquantified.
  • After siding: No side deck is present (side_count 0), so there is no post-side plan.

Why it scores here

The list is Illegal: four Forbidden cards are run and three cards exceed their copy limits. Its structure is theoretical only. Searcher density (24 searcher-text cards, about 94% chance of at least one in a 5-card opening hand) and a dense hand-trap suite (16 cards, about 88% chance of at least one in a 6-card going-second hand) make the deck function on paper, and the Phantasm Level 10 boss pieces give it a real closing route. Consistency is held back by the 3-copy stacks of archetype-core and hand-trap cards, the spread across Phantasm, Fiendsmith, Solemn and Thunder Dragon sub-engines, and the lack of any Mitsurugi core cards (7.7% core presence). No combo boards or win-rate data exist, so combo conversion is a text-only inference. Popularity and archetype label did not earn points, and card scores were not averaged. Structural score is 48.8 on the Balanced profile. Final is 35 after a -12 modifier and is marked theoretical, not a normal score.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 55 P(>=1 Phantasm starter in 5 cards) = 0.245 per 3-copy card; searcher-text group P >= 0.94 (Inferred)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 50 Searcher density is high, but conflicting Normal Summon and Level 10 requirements add brick risk (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 45 No parseable boards; ceiling is a text-only read of Level 10 Sacred Beast summons (Inferred)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 35 No combos supplied, so median output is unknown (Provisional)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 55 22 negation-text and 16 hand-trap cards give several interruption answers (Inferred)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 50 Searchers recover the deck well, and Martyr and Engraver give GY recursion (Inferred)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 68 Hand-trap and negation density is high (Inferred semantic read)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 65 Hand-trap density is high for going second, though no board-breaking data exists (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 50 Level 10 bosses such as Raviel, Hamon and Chaotic Phantasmal give strong ATK; no damage or closing data (Inferred)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 50 57 main-deck cards with 3-copy stacks reduce flexibility (Inferred)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 40 Extra Deck holds 8 Fusion, 4 Link and 3 Xyz; 3 are Forbidden or over-limit (verified: banlist)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 15 No side deck (side_count 0); no post-side plan (verified)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 35 No dated meta or tournament context; archetype usage shows Mitsurugi core is absent (Provisional)
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 35 Several engines with multiple decision points; high complexity (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Balanced. Structural ≈ 48.8, Going First ≈ 40, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); no side deck (-4). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional); 0.80*48.8 + 0.20*40 = 47.0, then -12 modifiers = 35; theoretical because the list is Illegal

Probability & combo summary

  • Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ — · 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 suite gives high access to Sacred Beast and Fiendsmith pieces
  • 16 hand traps and 22 negation-text cards give layered interaction
  • Level 10 Phantasm bosses and Fiendsmith fusions provide closing power if legal

Weaknesses

  • The list is Illegal: 4 Forbidden cards and 3 copy-limit overages
  • Mitsurugi core cards are absent (7.7% core presence), so the archetype label does not match the list
  • No side deck
  • Several overlapping engines (Phantasm, Fiendsmith, Solemn, Thunder Dragon) increase conflict risk

Critical choke points

  • Forbidden cards removed would leave Varudras and Aerial Eater gaps in the Extra Deck
  • Fiendsmith Engraver and Droll & Lock Bird at 3 and 2 copies exceed their limits
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 Triple Tactics Talent, Aerial Eater, Cross-Sheep, Varudras (Forbidden) Legal replacements for the same role (e.g. another searcher or hand trap) Restore legality before any normal Final score can be given
2 1 Fiendsmith Engraver, 1 Droll & Lock Bird, 1 Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring Legal-count replacements Clears the copy-limit violations (Engraver limit 1, Droll limit 1, Ash limit 2)
3 A 15-card side deck Adds a post-side plan for best-of-3 play

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Illegal status and 7 violations (legality); Forbidden status on 4 cards and Limited or Semi-Limited status on 8 cards; Core presence 7.7% of Mitsurugi usage stats; side_count 0
  • Observed: Searcher and hand-trap counts from role tags
  • Inferred: P(>=1 starter) estimates, brick risk, interaction density, and going-first/second read; Structural 48.8 on Balanced profile
  • Provisional: Meta power (null) and format fit (D13)
  • 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 exists in YGOVN Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck title is null and the archetype label does not match the card list
