Cyberdark Deck #770191 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 41 / Extra 14 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion/Link/Xyz boards led by Cyber End Dragon (4000 ATK, piercing), Cyber Eternity Dragon and Chimeratech Rampage Dragon, reached through Cyber Dragon starters and Cyberdark search chains; Cyber Dragon Sieger and Sky Striker Ace - Azalea as Link pressure, with Therion King Regulus as a high-ATK body
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon Cyber Dragon Core (searches a Cyber spell/trap), use Cyberdark Realm or Cybernetic Horizon to reach Cyberdark monsters, then Fusion or Link Summon from the Extra Deck
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence and Effect Veiler to stop the opponent's starter, then Special Summon Cyber Dragon from hand when only the opponent controls a monster and build toward a Fusion
• Recovery: Rebuild from Cyberdark Claw and Cyber Dragon Herz/Nachster recursion, plus Cyberdark Chimera and Cyber Emergency searches
• After siding: Not evaluable: no side deck is present, so no post-side plan exists in the list

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens its engine: the archetype core group has about an 81% chance of at least one copy in a 5-card opening hand, and 9 hand traps plus 21 search-text cards give it several ways to start or protect a line. Its conversion ceiling is real because the Extra Deck carries Cyber End Dragon, Cyber Eternity Dragon, Chimeratech Rampage and Heosvarog, but no recorded boards exist, so the median is scored conservatively and labeled Inferred. Interaction is the strongest system trait, with Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Effect Veiler and Regulus covering the starter and the board, though the list is illegal as built and carries no side deck, which keeps the post-side and matchup dimensions low. The score comes from consistency, median output and interaction on the whole system, not from the popularity of the Cyberdark archetype and not from averaging card scores. Because Ash Blossom is over its OCG copy limit, the final score is forced to the illegal cap of 35 and the result is structural-only.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 58, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-12); illegal_cap (-8). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional); raw result about 43 then forced to the Illegal cap of 35

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.81 · 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 Cyber Dragon starter and search package with about 81% core access in the opening 5
• Layered interaction: 9 hand traps plus Regulus and Heosvarog negation text
• Extra Deck with several high-impact finishers (Cyber End Dragon, Cyber Eternity Dragon, Chimeratech Rampage)

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: Ash Blossom is over its OCG copy limit
• No side deck, so there is no post-side adaptation for best-of-3
• Multi-step Fusion and Link lines with no measured combo data; floor and matchup are unverified

Critical choke points

• Cyber Dragon Core and the Cyber Dragon starters, since most lines begin there
• Power Bond and Polymerization for Fusion access; the deck has only one Polymerization and one Power Bond
• Extra-Deck Fusion materials that depend on Cyber Dragon monsters being in the GY or field

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Illegal (Ash Blossom 3 copies vs legal 2); Main 41 and Extra 14 are within size rules (40-60 / 0-15); Card text for the 41 main and 14 Extra Deck cards is resolved, except one unresolved passcode
• Observed: Usage stats show Cyber Dragon Core at 76% inclusion and Cyber Emergency at 62%
• Inferred: Starter access: 0.81 at least one core card in the opening 5; Brick and interaction scores from card text and role tags; Going-second hand-trap coverage: about 0.80
• Provisional: Meta Power (null); Matchup coverage and format fit; Side deck adaptability
• Data gaps: No combos supplied; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent Passcode 10443957 could not be resolved and is counted as main Usage check reports Extra-Deck cards (Cyber Dragon Nova, Cyber Dragon Sieger, Heosvarog, Cyber Eternity Dragon, Chimeratech Fortress and Megafleet, Clockwork Knight) as not in deck although they appear in cards[]; the core-present count (7/15) is undercounted No win-rate telemetry exists (going-first/second, matchup, brick and starter rates) Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
