Azamina Deck #770390 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 58/100 (±6 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Midrange
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion and Synchro boss summons (Saint Azamina, Chaos Angel, Snake-Eyes Vengeance Dragon, Diabellstar Vengeance) pressured by Diabellstar's 2500 ATK body, reached through Witch, Elzette, Silvy and Sinful Spoils searches.; Diabell board-wipe and protection package (Curse of Diabell, Diabellze) that converts a stable board into lethal pressure.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a White Forest or Azamina searcher, extend through Elzette/Silvy into a Synchro or Fusion boss, and keep one hand trap (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence or Ghost Ogre) up for the opponent's first activation.
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold 9 hand traps across the six-card hand to answer the opponent's starter, then extend into a Diabell or Azamina boss with the remaining resources.
• Recovery: Recover through WANTED, Filia Diabell, Tales of the White Forest and Witch, which each return a searchable Diabellstar, White Forest or Azamina card to hand.
• After siding: No side deck is registered (0 of 15 slots used), so there is no post-side plan; the deck plays the same game-one list every match.

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a searcher: the 16 archetype-core cards give about a 0.94 chance of at least one in a five-card opener, and Witch, Elzette, Silvy and Tales keep the engine reachable through the first two turns. Interaction is the strongest part of the system, with nine hand traps, Crossout Designator, Maxx C, Baronne de Fleur and Snake-Eyes Vengeance Dragon covering both going-first and going-second turns. Conversion is credible but not measured: 14 Fusion and Synchro bosses give high ceilings, yet no recorded boards exist, so the floor and median are inferred from text only. The score comes from consistency, interaction and resilience on the system as a whole; Azamina's popularity earns no points, and no card scores were averaged. The main penalties are a weak 12.7% exact-name archetype purity, an empty side deck, and a 40-card main that mixes several engines (White Forest, Diabell, Sinful Spoils, Azamina, Chaos and Snake-Eyes).

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: 70% Combo / 30% Midrange. Structural ≈ 64.6, Going First ≈ 65, Going Second ≈ 67, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 58. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-1); engine_conflicts (-2); no_side_plan (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional) = 0.80*64.6 + 0.20*58 - 5 = 58.3

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.94 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.07 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Searcher density (16 copies of searchers, core group p≈0.935 in opener) keeps the engine reachable early.
• Nine hand traps and several negate or destroy effects give layered interaction on both turns.
• Multiple high-ATK Extra Deck bosses (Chaos Angel 3500, Snake-Eyes 3000, Diabellstar Vengeance 2500) convert the board into pressure.

Weaknesses

• Exact-name archetype purity is 12.7%, so the list is spread across several engines rather than one focused line.
• No side deck is registered, leaving no post-side plan.
• Floor and median output are unmeasured because no recorded boards exist.
• Many spells and traps need specific triggers, which raises brick risk on the wrong hand.

Critical choke points

• Losing the 16 archetype-core searchers to an early hand trap or opening-hand miss removes the engine on turn 1-2.
• Single-copy Limited cards (Crossout Designator, Maxx C, PSY-Framegear Gamma, WANTED) are one-of choke pieces.

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Legal at 40 Main / 15 Extra / 0 Side; all four Limited cards are run at one legal copy.; Composition: 26 distinct Main cards, 12.7% exact-name purity, 9 hand traps, 16 searcher-text cards.; Usage: 13 of 25 recorded core cards are present.
• Inferred: Opening-hand consistency from the hypergeometric table (p≈0.935 for the core group).; Interaction quality from card text (nine hand traps, Crossout, Maxx C, Baronne, Snake-Eyes).; Going-second hand-trap availability (p≈0.81).
• Provisional: Meta Power is null, and matchup fit (D13) is provisional with no tournament link or dated meta sample.
• Data gaps: No combos were supplied, so combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference. No tournament link exists, so archetype meta-share and per-pilot match records are absent. No win-rate telemetry exists for going-first, going-second, matchup or brick rates. Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample. The deck has no side deck, so D12 has no post-side performance data.
