Primite Deck #770212 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 25/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 5 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Blue-Eyes and Dracotail Fusion/Synchro boards, with Primite Dragon Ether Beryl and Primite Lordly Lode as the Primite line; Synchro and Link extension beats (Blue-Eyes Spirit Dragon, Spirit with Eyes of Blue) through Sage and Maiden tuners
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon Sage with Eyes of Blue or Maiden of White, search a Blue-Eyes or Primite follow-up, and set up Primite Lordly Lode or Wishes for Eyes of Blue. The line is not guaranteed by the list and has no recorded combo evidence.
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird and Effect Veiler to stop the opponent's first search or summon, then rebuild through Maiden of White or Wishes. Relies on the illegal copy counts being removed.
• Recovery: Tuners and searchers (Sage, Maiden, Wishes, Lordly Lode) recycle engine pieces from the GY, but no recorded board confirms a clean rebuild after a hand trap or board wipe.
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered (side_count 0), so there is no post-side plan. Best-of-3 adaptation is structurally absent.

Why it scores here

This list is illegal in OCG: three Ash Blossom, two Droll & Lock Bird, and one each of Called by the Grave, Triple Tactics Talent and Trishula exceed their banlist limits, so the deck is capped and scored only as a theoretical structure. Structurally it has real interaction density, with nine hand traps, seven negation texts and roughly 21 removal texts, and its 20 searchers give a high chance of finding a playable piece (about 0.91 for at least one searcher in a 5-card hand). The archetype core is present at about 0.97 in the opening hand, but exact-name purity is only 10%, so three engines (Blue-Eyes, Dracotail and Primite) plus Mulcharmy and Cyclone compete for the same slots. Median and floor output cannot be established, since no combos were supplied and the Blue-Eyes finishers (Neo Blue-Eyes, Blue-Eyes Tyrant) are missing, so no ceiling is credited. The score comes from consistency, interaction and the system as a whole, not from averaging individual card scores, and not from Primite or Blue-Eyes popularity, which earned no points.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox primary; Midrange secondary, not blended numerically. Structural ≈ 49, Going First ≈ 46, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); no side deck (-4); engine conflicts (-6); illegal cap (-4). Final formula: Illegal list: theoretical/structural only. 0.80*Structural(49) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(40) = 47.2, plus modifiers -22, capped at 25 for illegal status. Meta provisional.

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

• Interaction density: nine hand traps, seven negate texts and a removal-heavy spell/trap suite
• Searcher density: 20 search-text cards make a usable hand likely
• Core archetype cards present at high inclusion (Mausoleum, Primite Drillbeam, True Light, Majesty)

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy counts on three restricted cards and two over-limit hand traps
• Exact-name purity 10%; engines (Blue-Eyes, Dracotail, Primite) compete for slots
• No side deck; no post-side plan
• Missing core finishers: Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, Blue-Eyes Tyrant, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit Dragon

Critical choke points

• Sage with Eyes of Blue and Maiden of White as the only Tuner-based starters
• Primite Lordly Lode and Wishes for Eyes of Blue as the main searcher line
• Trishula (Forbidden) in the Extra Deck, which must be removed to make the list legal

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: 5 over-limit or Forbidden violations (OCG); Main 55 and Extra 15 are within size rules; Copy histogram and archetype purity 10%; No side deck registered
• Observed: Usage stats show 13 of 21 core cards present (61.9%)
• Inferred: Hypergeometric opening-hand odds for starters and searchers; Interaction density from hand-trap and negate text; Going-second hand-trap estimate 0.6769
• Provisional: Meta Power and format fit: no dated metagame sample or tournament link
• Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link — archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN (going-first/second, matchup, game-level, brick/starter/OTK rates) — those signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied deck title is null, so the name is taken from the archetype only
