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 large boards (Master of Oz, King Dragun, Gatling Dragon, The Last Warrior from Another Planet) and push through with direct damage or piercing (Airknight Parshath); Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning (1 copy) as a single boss that removes a monster on summon
- Turn 1 (going first): Open on draw and card-advantage spells (Pot of Greed and Graceful Charity are illegal here and cannot be counted), then hope for a Fusion starter; no reliable T1 line is evidenced
- Turn 2 (going second): Use Mirror Force, Raigeki Break, Ring of Destruction and Torrential Tribute to trade with the opponent's board, then Fusion Summon on the reset board
- Recovery: Searchers and recursion (Thunder Dragon x3, Sinister Serpent, Sangan, Magician of Faith) to refill; few guaranteed recoveries
- After siding: Not evaluable: the side deck is empty (0 cards)
Why it scores here
The score is built from the deck as a system, not from averaging card scores. The deck is Illegal in OCG: Pot of Greed, Graceful Charity and Delinquent Duo are Forbidden and run one copy each, so under the rubric it gets no normal Final score and the number below is a theoretical, structural-only read. The deck has real interaction density (Mirror Force, Raigeki Break, Ring of Destruction, Torrential Tribute, Heavy Storm, Tribe-Infecting Virus, Mystical Space Typhoon), which is the strongest signal. Its engine is weak: only 1 of 69 off-archetype cards is an exact Black Luster Soldier name, and the core Black Luster Soldier - Soldier of Light and Darkness is absent (usage stats show 57.8% inclusion). Popularity or archetype usage did not earn points, and no combo boards exist, so the ceiling and median are text-only inferences. The score is intentionally capped low.
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | Engine Accessibility & Consistency | 30 | P(≥1 Thunder Dragon or Scapegoat in opening 5) ≈ 0.25; only 1 Envoy and no Soldier of Light and Darkness core, so the engine is rarely live on T1–T2 (Inferred) |
| D2 | Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management | 35 | Level-0 spells and traps are 29 of 55 main cards; no hand traps; several dead or conditional cards in hand (Inferred) |
| D3 | Combo Conversion & Ceiling | 30 | No recorded combo boards; ceiling is text-only via Envoy and Chaos Sorcerer banish-summons, which require LIGHT and DARK GY monsters the list does not guarantee (Inferred) |
| D4 | Combo Floor & Median Output | 30 | No parseable boards, so the median is unknown and set to the low-confidence floor (Provisional) |
| D5 | Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy | 35 | Interaction spells give some recovery, but the deck lacks independent second lines or hand-trap protection after one disruption (Inferred) |
| D6 | Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind | 45 | Seven searcher-text cards and draw spells (Upstart Goblin, Jar of Greed, Dekoichi) give decent grind; Sinister Serpent and Sangan add recursion (Inferred) |
| D7 | End-Board & Interaction Quality | 55 | 22 removal-text cards including Mirror Force, Raigeki Break, Ring of Destruction and Heavy Storm give broad interaction; limited layering because most are one-copy (Inferred) |
| D8 | Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power | 50 | Mirror Force, Raigeki Break, Ring of Destruction and Torrential Tribute challenge a board on going second, and Ojama King and Envoy add boss pressure (Inferred) |
| D9 | Offensive Pressure & Closing Power | 50 | Master of Oz (4200 ATK), Airknight Parshath (piercing) and Envoy (3000 ATK) give closing power, but the Extra Deck has no reliable enabler line (Inferred) |
| D10 | Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility | 40 | 55 main cards with 37 distinct and 69 off-archetype copies; compact enough but incoherent for the archetype (Verified composition, Inferred consistency) |
| D11 | Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage | 30 | 15 Fusion monsters across mixed archetypes (Ojama King, Ryu Senshi, Dark Blade) with no Fusion enabler core; flexibility is low (Inferred) |
| D12 | Side Deck Adaptability | 5 | No side deck (0 cards), so no post-side plan is possible (Verified) |
| D13 | Matchup Coverage & Format Fit | 40 | No tournament link and no dated metagame; Black Luster Soldier share unknown (Provisional) |
| D14 | Pilotability & Error Tolerance | 40 | Few combo steps in text, but Fusion Summons and banish costs add decision points; no evidence of execution difficulty (Inferred) |
How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Toolbox primary with Midrange secondary; weights taken from Toolbox profile. Structural ≈ 37, Going First ≈ 35, Going Second ≈ 38, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 25. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-10); engine_core_absent (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional), then modifiers; illegal deck so final is theoretical/structural-only and capped low
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 interaction: 22 removal-text cards and several hard-removal traps
- Searcher and draw density (7 searcher-text cards plus Upstart Goblin, Jar of Greed, Dekoichi)
- Real Fusion closing options (Master of Oz 4200 ATK, King Dragun, Gatling Dragon)
Weaknesses
- Illegal in OCG: three Forbidden cards in the Main Deck
- No archetype engine core; Black Luster Soldier identity is one card (Envoy)
- No side deck, so no best-of-3 adaptation
- No combo evidence, so floor and ceiling are unknown
Critical choke points
- Envoy needs 1 LIGHT + 1 DARK monster in the GY, and the list has no guaranteed GY fuel
- Fusion Summons depend on Fusion materials that are not enablers in this list
Recommended changes
| Priority | Remove | Add | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Pot of Greed, Graceful Charity, Delinquent Duo | Legal replacements (non-Forbidden draw or searcher) | Clears the Illegal status; without this the deck cannot be scored as a normal deck |
| 2 | Off-archetype spell and trap slots | Black Luster Soldier - Soldier of Light and Darkness and a Black Luster Soldier engine core (usage stats list it at 57.8% inclusion) | Builds an actual engine rather than a toolbox of unrelated Fusion and interaction cards |
| 3 | Nothing (side is empty) | A side deck of 5–15 cards | Enables post-side adaptation; currently D12 is 5 |
Evidence & confidence
- Verified: Illegal status: three Forbidden cards (Pot of Greed, Graceful Charity, Delinquent Duo) are run in the Main Deck; Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 are within the OCG size rules; Archetype purity exact-name 1.4%; 69 off-archetype copies; Black Luster Soldier - Soldier of Light and Darkness is absent from a 57.8% usage core
- Inferred: Starter access and brick risk from hypergeometric odds; Interaction density and going-second board-breaking from card text; Closing power from ATK and text
- Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit (D13)
- Data gaps: No combos supplied: floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent No win-rate telemetry for OCG; going-first/second and brick rates are Inferred Meta Power provisional without a dated metagame sample Deck title is null
