Crimson Dragon Deck #770869 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 20/100 (±6 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 41 / Extra 21 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 4 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro-based board pressure from Crimson Dragon, Centur-Ion Legatia / Auxila and Elfnote boss monsters (Inferred from card text; no recorded boards); Fusion finishers (Dark Magician of Destruction, Master of Chaos) if the Extra Deck is legal
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Centur-Ion or Elfnote starter, chain Stand Up Centur-Ion! / Elfnotes: Welcome Home for a Synchro boss (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Ash Blossom and Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit as hand-trap interaction, then rebuild a board through Elfnote Regina / Centur-Ion Trudea (Inferred)
• Recovery: Search effects on Elfnote Regina, Centur-Ion Primera, Crimson Dragon and Shining Sarcophagus recover card flow (Inferred)
• After siding: Not evaluable: side deck is empty (0 of up to 15 cards)

Why it scores here

This list is illegal in OCG: three Forbidden cards are run at full copies and the Extra Deck holds 21 cards against a limit of 15, so the score is capped and reflects the structure of the list only. The main deck reads as a coherent-enough Synchro shell, with searchers for Centur-Ion, Elfnote and Shining Sarcophagus giving a reasonable chance (about 0.84 for at least one searcher in an opening 5, Inferred) to find a starter, but there are no recorded boards, so the floor, median and ceiling cannot be measured and are only text-inferred. Interaction (two hand traps, Ash Blossom and Ghost Ogre, plus Maxx C and Droll & Lock Bird) is real, but the empty side deck removes any post-side adjustment. Popularity did not earn points: the Crimson Dragon archetype core is only 20 percent present (3 of 15 core cards), and the cards were not averaged into the score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 45, Going First ≈ 45, Going Second ≈ 40, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8). Final formula: Raw: 0.80*45 + 0.20*40 = 44, plus banlist-exposure modifier -8 = 36; capped to 20 because the deck is Illegal (theoretical/structural-only). Meta provisional.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.23 · 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 suite (12 text hits) gives high odds of finding a live engine card
• Six hand traps and three negation-text cards cover a range of interaction
• Main deck count is within the OCG range and the 28 distinct cards are coherent around Centur-Ion and Elfnote

Weaknesses

• Three Forbidden cards at full copies make the list illegal
• Extra Deck holds 21 cards against a limit of 15
• No side deck, so there is no post-side adjustment
• Only 3 of 15 archetype core cards are present; 62 copies are off-archetype

Critical choke points

• Any single Forbidden card removed from the Extra Deck breaks the list until the Extra Deck is trimmed to 15
• Synchro summon depends on a small set of Tuners (Centur-Ion Atrii, Elfnote Power Patron, Ghost Ogre and Ash Blossom), so losing a Tuner stalls the boss line

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Three Forbidden cards at full copies (legal copies 0); Extra Deck 21 vs limit 15; Main deck 41 within 40-60; Side deck 0; Archetype core present 3 of 15
• Inferred: Searcher and starter odds from hypergeometric estimates; Hand-trap interaction density; Going-first and going-second plan wording; Dimension scores D1 to D11 and D14
• Provisional: Meta power and matchup fit (no dated metagame sample); D13 format fit
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchup or brick rates Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample Side deck is empty, so post-side behaviour is not evaluable
