Witchcrafter Deck #770808 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Tempo
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 56 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Witchcrafter Madame Rilliona (3800 ATK) and Witchcrafter Vice-Madame fusion boards, built from Witchcrafter searches and Fusion Summons (Inferred from card text); Hyperinvoked Aeon and Witchcrafter Pupils recursion-based boards (Inferred from card text)
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Witchcrafter searchers (Walpurgis, Creation, Confusion Confession) and Verre/Genni drawn starters to reach Madame Rilliona or Vice-Madame; keep hand traps for the opponent's first response (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Ghost Belle, Effect Veiler and Maxx C to answer the opponent's first board, then rebuild through Witchcrafter searchers (Inferred)
• Recovery: Return Witchcrafter Terracottan, Creation, Confusion Confession and Celebration from the GY through their GY-recursion text (Inferred)
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered (side_count 0), so there is no post-side plan; the deck has no side-in path (Verified from legality data)

Why it scores here

This list is illegal in OCG: three Forbidden cards (Charmer Quartet in Bloom, Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon, Cross-Sheep) are run, so it receives a theoretical, structural-only read capped at 30 instead of a normal final score. Within that structure, the Witchcrafter searcher density (P(at least one searcher in 5) ≈ 0.93) and the archetype core (P(at least one core card in 5) ≈ 0.96) give the engine a high chance of going live, and the deck has strong hand-trap and negation coverage (10 hand-trap cards, 15 negation-text cards, P(at least one hand trap in 6 going second) ≈ 0.71). Combo conversion and median output are not measured, since the evidence contains no boards, so the ceiling and floor are text-only inference. The score comes from consistency and interaction on the system, not from popularity or from averaging the individual card scores, and the 38% exact archetype purity pulls engine coherence down. No side deck is registered, and no tournament or win-rate data exists, so post-side strength and meta fit remain unscored.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 58, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-8). Final formula: 0.80*Structural(58) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(50) + banlist modifier(-8) = 48; Illegal cap applied, so the final score is 30 (theoretical/structural-only). Meta Power is null (Provisional).

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.93 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.04 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Dense Witchcrafter searcher package (22 searcher-text cards) gives high P(starter live)
• Ten hand traps and fifteen negation-text cards provide multi-layer interaction
• Two 3800-ATK Fusion boards (Madame Rilliona, Hyperinvoked Aeon) give closing power

Weaknesses

• Illegal in OCG: three Forbidden cards run, so the list cannot be played as built
• Low archetype purity (38%): Endymion, Mulcharmy, Magistus and Kaiju cards dilute engine coherence
• No Side Deck, so no post-side plan
• No combo, guide or tournament data; ceiling and floor are unverified

Critical choke points

• Witchcrafter searchers and Fusion starters are single lines that depend on Extra Deck access
• Two Forbidden Extra Deck cards are key slots, so removing them removes part of the Extra plan

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: 3 Forbidden cards run (Charmer Quartet in Bloom, Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon, Cross-Sheep); 56 main, 15 extra, 0 side; Archetype purity 38% (27 exact-name copies); Card text and banlist status for all listed cards
• Inferred: Opening-hand probabilities (hypergeometric, Main Deck only); Interaction density and resilience from card text; Going-second hand-trap estimate
• Provisional: Matchup and format fit (no dated meta sample); Meta Power (null); Tournament reliability (no tournament link)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent No win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick/starter/OTK rates) exists in YGOVN Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied No Side Deck is registered
