  • Primary strategy: Combo

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 7 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Power Patron / Elfnote Link and Synchro boards (Mediclius, Junora, Elfnote June Pride, Elfnote Seraphim Strelitzia) built from a Medius the Pure / Theorealized Medius starter line; Artmage Diactorus and Number 90 Galaxy-Eyes Photon Lord as Extra Deck pressure and negation
  • Turn 1 (going first): Open Elfnote Power Patron or Elfnote Lucina / Regina as the Turn 1 starter, search an Elfnote or Power Patron monster, then extend into a Link or Synchro summon. Hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Effect Veiler) protect the first combo. The forbidden cards are not part of a legal plan.
  • Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Effect Veiler, Droll & Lock Bird and Solemn Judgment to interrupt the opponent's first board, then rebuild with Medius the Pure and a Power Patron link.
  • Recovery: Power Patron Link monsters and Theorealize recursion from the GY, plus Ars Magna Philosophorum to banish and re-summon.
  • After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs no Side Deck (Side Deck size 0), so there is no post-side plan.

Why it scores here

The deck is scored on its system, not by averaging its card scores. It reliably reaches a Power Patron or Elfnote starter in the opening hand about 25% of the time going first, and searcher text covers about 91% of opening hands, so it usually finds a starter. Its interaction layer is broad: 14 hand traps and 14 negation-text cards give roughly 84% chance of at least one hand trap going second. Those strengths are offset by an Illegal list: four Forbidden cards and three over-limit cards cap it under a normal Final Contextual score. The Medius popularity has no bearing on the score, and no combo, meta or tournament data supports a higher reading.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 55 P(at least one of 3 copies in 5-card opening hand) is about 0.25 for each starter; searcher-text group covers about 0.91 of openers (Inferred)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 45 14 hand traps and 20 searchers in 55 cards, with many Power Patron and Elfnote pieces that need a Link or Synchro partner; brick and conflict rate estimated (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 55 Ceiling read from card text only: Mediclius and Junora boards with negation and Synchro-based boards; no recorded combo boards (Inferred)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 45 No parseable boards, so median output is text-only and kept at a mid value (Inferred)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 50 Redundant hand traps and two Power Patron recursion routes, but no tested second line after a disruption (Inferred)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 50 Recursion from GY through Theorealize, Power Patron Link and Ars Magna cards; resource signature unknown (Inferred)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 60 14 hand traps and 14 negation-text cards plus Synchro negation effects give broad interaction density (Inferred)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 50 14 hand traps and Ash Blossom / Ghost Belle going second; board-breaking text is partial (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 55 Link and Synchro bosses with 3000+ ATK end-boards (Mediclius, Junora, Psychic End Punisher not present); closing power is credible but not measured (Inferred)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 45 55 main cards with 31 distinct names, only 3 exact Medius cards and 67 off-archetype copies, so compactness and coherence are weak (Verified)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 50 Extra Deck is 15 cards at max with 9 Synchro, 4 Link, 1 Xyz and 1 Fusion; 2 Extra cards are Forbidden (Verified)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 15 Side deck is empty (Side Deck size 0), so no adaptability can be credited (Verified)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 40 No tournament link and no meta sample; meta-share unavailable, so this stays provisional (Provisional)
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 40 Multi-step Link and Synchro sequencing with many quick-effect decision points; high pilot load (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 50, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 48, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12). Final formula: Theoretical only (deck is Illegal): 0.80*50 + 0.20*35 = 47, plus banlist-exposure modifier -12 = 35, capped to 30 because the list contains Forbidden cards and over-limit copies. Meta Power is null (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

  • Dense hand-trap and negation package (14 hand traps, 14 negation-text cards)
  • High searcher density (20 searcher-text cards), so the opening hand usually finds a starter
  • Real Power Patron and Elfnote Link and Synchro endboards

Weaknesses

  • Illegal list: four Forbidden cards and over-limit copies of Lucina, Ash Blossom and Droll
  • Low archetype purity (4.3% exact Medius) and a spread of sub-archetypes weakens engine coherence
  • No side deck, so no post-board adaptation
  • Heavy off-archetype filler (67 off-archetype copies) dilutes the engine

Critical choke points

  • Elfnote Power Patron and Medius the Pure as the first starter; each has 3-copy P(>=1 in opener) of about 0.25
  • Power Patron Link monsters as the only Extra Deck route to pressure
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 Called by the Grave, Elfnote Tinia, F.A. Dawn Dragster, Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon Legal replacements in the same role (Ghost Belle or Effect Veiler for hand-trap space; a legal Synchro for the Extra Deck slots) These are Forbidden in the TCG format; the list cannot be legal until they are removed.
2 One copy each of Elfnote Lucina, Droll & Lock Bird, and one Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring Unlimited-status cards in the same role Copy limits: Lucina 1, Droll 1, Ash Blossom 2.
3 Off-archetype filler Side deck of 0 to 15 cards No side deck means D12 is effectively unevaluable; a side adds post-board adaptation.

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Illegal status and all 7 copy-limit or Forbidden violations (legality block); Main 55, Extra 15, Side 0 size counts (within 40-60, 0-15, 0-15); Archetype purity 4.3% exact name and 67 off-archetype copies
  • Inferred: Starter access and searcher-group probabilities (hypergeometric, Main Deck only); Hand-trap and negation density scores for D7 and D8; Dimension scores D1-D11 and D14
  • Provisional: Meta Power is null; D13 format fit has no dated sample or tournament link
  • Data gaps: no combos supplied; floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no archetype usage statistics; core and meta-standard comparison unavailable no tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent no win-rate telemetry; going-first, going-second and matchup signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
