• Format: tcg

Legality

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

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Xyz Summon Utopia/Number boss monsters (Number 99: Utopia Dragonar, Number C39: Utopia Ray Victory, Number S39: Utopia the Lightning) off Gagaga/Zubaba/Dododo starters and the Rank-Up-Magic line; Recursion of Gagaga/Gogogo/Dododo monsters from the GY via Onomatokage, Dodododwarf Gogogoglove and Gagagaga Girl to feed later Xyz Summons
• Turn 1 (going first): Search with Onomatopaira or Zubababa Knight, Special Summon Zubababancho Gagagacoat or Dodododo Warrior from hand, then Xyz Summon a Gagaga/Utopia boss from the Extra Deck
• Turn 2 (going second): Without hand traps the deck must reach a board through a Gagaga Magician / Onomatokage starter chain and rely on Utopia negations (Number 39: Utopia, Number 90) to protect the first Xyz
• Recovery: Recover through the GY: Onomatokage banish-revive, Gogogoglove GY summon, and Gagagaga Girl / Endless Bond pulls to rebuild Xyz material
• After siding: Not evaluable: the list runs 0 side cards, so no post-side plan exists in the export

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a functional starter: the 11 archetype-core copies give P(at least one in a 5-card opening hand) ≈ 0.82, and 11 searcher-text cards support the engine. It converts that opening into Xyz boss pressure off a 15-card Extra Deck of Utopia/Number/Gagaga monsters, with strong closing bodies such as Number 99 and Number C39. Its weaknesses are structural: it runs no hand traps and no floodgates, so it has little answer to disruption on the opponent's turn and is weak when going second. It has no side deck, so it cannot adapt after a game, and no combo or tournament records exist to confirm the ceiling or meta fit. The score comes from consistency, closing power and interaction on the system as a whole, not from averaging card scores or from the Dododo name, whose exact-name purity is only 18.2%.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 57, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 42, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 48. Modifiers: no side deck (-3); no hand traps or floodgates (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional); 0.80*56.9 + 0.20*48 = 55.1, then context modifiers −5 → 50

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.82 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.18 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• 11-card archetype core with ≈0.82 chance of at least one starter in an opening 5
• Strong Xyz closing bodies (Number 99 at 3000 ATK, Utopia Ray Victory at 2800 ATK)
• Recursion through GY monsters and searchers supports multi-turn grind
• Compact 40-card main with full 3-copy starter density

Weaknesses

• No hand traps or floodgates; weak against an opposing turn
• No side deck; no post-side adaptation
• Low exact-archetype purity (18.2%), so the engine is a cross-archetype mix
• Many non-engine spells can produce dead draws

Critical choke points

• Gagaga/Zubaba starter access is the single engine start; the 11-card core is the only route to Xyz material
• Extra Deck boss summons depend on having 2 Level-4 material on board, which an opposing interruption can remove

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal: 40 Main, 15 Extra, 0 Side under TCG size rules; Card text and ATK/DEF for Number 99 (3000), Masquerade V (2700), Utopia Ray Victory (2800); Archetype core inclusion stats are present (usage statistics)
• Inferred: P(≥1 starter in 5) ≈ 0.82 and brick estimate ≈ 0.18; Interaction density and resilience from negation/removal text; Going-second weakness from absence of hand traps
• Provisional: Meta Power (null) and D13 format fit, since no dated metagame sample exists
• 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 side deck — post-side behaviour unobservable no win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick/starter/OTK rates) Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
