D/D/D Deck #770207 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 8 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra Deck D/D/D boss monsters (Machinex, Arc Crisis, Deus Machinex, Siegfried) built through Dark Contract and Pendulum plays, if the list were legal; Fusion, Synchro and Xyz follow-ups from the D/D and D/D/D sub-engine
• Turn 1 (going first): Pendulum-set the D/D scales, then search through Dark Contract with the Gate or Kepler and convert into a D/D/D boss; the list has no recorded line to confirm this
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Ghost Ogre, Droll) against the opponent's starter, then rebuild from the Graveyard with D/D Necro Slime and D/D Lance Soldier; interaction is dense but the list has no recorded second-turn plan
• Recovery: Graveyard-based recovery: Necro Slime fusion, Lance Soldier revival through Dark Contract, and Dark Contract with the Gate searches
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no side deck (side_count 0)

Why it scores here

This list is illegal in OCG: eight copy-limit or Forbidden violations (including Called by the Grave, Dimension Shifter, Triple Tactics Talent and D/D/D Wave High King Caesar at 0 legal copies), so it is scored as a theoretical, structural-only read capped low. The engine reads as coherent: 21 archetype-core copies give an estimated 92% chance of at least one in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred), and the Dark Contract, Kepler and Machinex starters are strong, but a 0-copy boss in the Extra Deck removes a payoff the rest of the list is built around. Interaction is dense, with 12 hand traps, 16 negation-text cards and 34 removal-text cards, but this is a density count from text, not measured board performance. There are no recorded boards, no tournament record and no side deck, so the going-first and going-second splits and the floor and ceiling cannot be measured. The score comes from consistency and interaction density on the system; archetype popularity (55.6% inclusion for the core) earned no points and the individual card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo profile used; Toolbox secondary noted but not blended numerically. Structural ≈ 48, Going First ≈ 45, Going Second ≈ 40, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: Banlist exposure (-8); Illegal cap (-3). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional); Structural 47.6, TR 40, pre-modifier 46.4, modifiers -11, rounded to 35

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.25 · 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

• Coherent D/D/D Extra Deck with 14 distinct, all-DARK-compatible boss and engine options
• Dense interaction: 12 hand traps, 16 negation-text cards, 34 removal-text cards
• Strong archetype core: 21 copies with about 92% chance of at least one in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred)

Weaknesses

• Illegal in OCG: copy-limit violations on 4 Semi-Limited/Limited cards and 4 Forbidden cards
• No side deck, so no post-side plan
• No recorded boards, combos or tournament data to test the ceiling or floor

Critical choke points

• Dark Contract and D/D Savant Kepler as the starter path; a single 3-copy starter gives about 25% in a 5-card hand (Inferred)
• Forbidden D/D/D Wave High King Caesar removes a boss, so its line must be rebuilt from other payoffs

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Illegal, with 8 copy-limit or Forbidden violations (Verified); Main 55 cards, Extra 15 cards, Side 0 cards, within OCG size rules (Verified); Card text and banlist status for every card in the export (Verified); Archetype-core usage inclusion 55.6% for D/D/D (Verified)
• Inferred: Starter access: 92% core group opening estimate and 25% single 3-copy starter (Inferred hypergeometric); Hand-trap density and interaction counts from text and role tags (Inferred); Going-second hand-trap estimate: 79% at least one hand trap in a 6-card hand (Inferred)
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Format fit and tournament reliability (no tournament link)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link, so archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN; going-first, going-second and matchup rates are Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied No side deck, so post-side adaptability cannot be measured No guides attached (guides_evidence total_guides 0)
