Magistus Deck #770813 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 25/100 (±6 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion Summon Invoked boss monsters (Hyperinvoked Aeon, Invoked Elysium, Invoked Oceanus) off an Aleister starter, using Extra Deck fusions.; Link and Fusion follow-ups (Endymion, Aleister the Invoker of Madness) that keep the Fusion line going after the first summon.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open with an Aleister or Invocation starter, search or Special Summon an Aleister, and convert into an Invoked Fusion while holding Ash Blossom and Ghost Belle as interaction.
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Droll & Lock Bird, Evenly Matched) to disrupt the opponent's first board, then rebuild through Invocation or Super Polymerization.
• Recovery: Recover from a disrupted starter through searchers (Aleister the Reminiscent, Invocation, Triple Tactics Thrust) and Mulcharmy draw effects; GY-based Invocation and Magical Meltdown provide a second route.
• 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 as a system, not as an average of its card scores. Its core Aleister starter is reasonably accessible: the archetype core group has about a 69% chance of at least one copy in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred), and searchers are dense (about 87% for at least one searcher in hand). Conversion is credible because a single Aleister starter feeds several Invoked Fusion bosses in the Extra Deck, which keeps the ceiling reasonable. Interaction is deep, with about 10 hand traps and multiple negate and removal texts, which supports the going-second plan. Redundancy is weaker: 14 tech slots, 29 zero-level spells and the lack of a Side Deck mean the median output is lower than the ceiling, and the list is over the copy limit on two cards. Popularity was not used: the archetype core stats only confirm that the list is a real, familiar build, and the Structural Power (about 53) was reduced to a final score of 25 because the list is Illegal.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 53, Going First ≈ 52, Going Second ≈ 48, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 42. Modifiers: Copy-limit violations (-8); Brick and tech density (-4). Final formula: 0.80*Structural(52.6) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(42) = 50.4 (Meta provisional); modifiers -12 gives 38.4; capped at 25 because legality status is Illegal (theoretical/structural only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.69 · 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 searchers (about 18 cards) make the Aleister starter reachable
• Extra Deck bosses have high ATK and multiple Fusion routes
• About 10 hand traps and several negation texts give strong going-second interaction

Weaknesses

• Illegal: Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization are over the copy limit
• No Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan
• No recorded combos, so floor and median are text-only inference

Critical choke points

• The Aleister monster is required by most Fusion routes; losing it to hand traps or removal leaves the Extra Deck hard to use
• Super Polymerization and Invocation are the main Fusion enablers; cutting either to the limit reduces access

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 55 and Extra 15 are within OCG size rules; Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization are over the copy limit (3 of 2); Droll & Lock Bird, S:P Little Knight and Terraforming run one copy each, within their Limited status; Invoked Fusion boss stats (ATK 3800, 3200, 3000)
• Inferred: Opening-hand starter probability (hypergeometric); Interaction density from card text; Ceiling and floor conclusions (text-only, no recorded boards)
• Provisional: Meta Power (null, no dated meta sample); Matchup fit (no tournament or meta data)
• 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 1 passcode in CardIDList (86120751) could not be resolved to a card and was counted as main no win-rate telemetry; going-first, going-second and matchup rates are unknown Meta Power is provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied No Side Deck; post-side plan cannot be evaluated
