Hecahands Deck #770747 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion Summon Level 8 boss monsters from the Extra Deck through Fallen of Albaz material chains (Inferred from card text; no recorded boards); Extra Deck Synchro/Xyz pressure (Gung-Ho! Springans!, Ecclesia and the Dark Dragon) off Springans/Tuner support
• Turn 1 (going first): Search with Branded in High Spirits / Branded Opening / Tally-ho! Springans toward a Fallen of Albaz starter, then Fusion Summon a boss; Albion is the intended Fusion line but is Forbidden in OCG and is not playable
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Skull Meister, Branded Retribution, Tri-Brigade Mercourier) and Forbidden Chalice / Final Bringer for interaction, then Fusion or Synchro through the board
• Recovery: Recursion via Fallen of the White Dragon, Springans Kitt, and Hecahands Godos from GY; depends on Fallen of Albaz, which is only run twice
• After siding: None: side_count is 0, so no best-of-3 adaptation exists

Why it scores here

Scored as a connected system, not as an average of card scores. Legality fails first: Albion the Branded Dragon is Forbidden and run twice, and Branded in High Spirits and Branded Opening are Limited but run three copies each, so the list is illegal in OCG and only a capped structural read is given. Searcher density (21 text hits, about 92% chance of at least one in a 5-card hand) gives reasonable access to the Branded/Despia opening, but the Hecahands core is largely absent (3 exact-name copies, 9.1% of the usage core present) and the Fallen of Albaz chain has only 2 starters. There are no recorded boards, so conversion and median output are text-only inference. Interaction is spread across 11 negation and 14 removal text hits plus 3 hand traps, but with no side deck and no tournament link, resilience and post-side scores stay low. Archetype popularity did not earn points.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange, meta-neutral (D13 dropped, weights renormalized over 95). Structural ≈ 38.5, Going First ≈ 36, Going Second ≈ 34, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 30. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-10); no side deck (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers, then capped low because the deck is Illegal (Meta provisional): 0.80*38.5 + 0.20*30 - 12 = 24.8, rounded to 25

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.92 · 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 searcher text (21 cards) gives high opening access to Branded/Despia/Springans lines
• Three hand traps and 11 negation-text cards give interaction on both turns
• Extra Deck has high-ATK bosses (Titaniklad, Mirrorjade, Borreload, Draco Berserker)

Weaknesses

• Illegal in OCG: Albion (Forbidden) plus two Limited cards run over the limit
• Only 2 Fallen of Albaz, the starter for most of the Fusion chain
• Core Hecahands cards are absent, so the list does not follow the archetype standard
• No side deck and no recorded boards

Critical choke points

• Fallen of Albaz (2 copies) gates most Fusion routes
• Albion is banned, so its boss route cannot be played as written

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Albion Forbidden x2; Branded in High Spirits and Branded Opening Limited with 3 copies each; Size: 55 main, 15 extra, 0 side; Card text and banlist status from the evidence pack; Exact-name purity 4.3%; core present 9.1% (1 of 11)
• Inferred: D1 starter access from hypergeometric odds (0.92 searcher group); Conversion, median and interruption resilience from text only (no boards); Interaction density from text-role tags
• Provisional: Meta / format fit (D13), Meta Power, and tournament reliability (no dated sample or match record)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and match record absent No win-rate telemetry: going-first/second, matchup and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied No side deck: post-side plan cannot be scored
