Witchcrafter Deck #770958 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 52 / Extra 18 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 4 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra-Deck boss summons (Zoroa the Magistus Verethragna 2900 ATK, Summon Sorceress 2400 ATK link, Mudragon 1900 ATK) reached through Fusion, Link and Xyz routes; no recorded line confirms any of them; Fairy Tail and Endymion monster pressure (Teller of Fairy Tails 1850 ATK, Endymion Link 1850 ATK) with Magistus support
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a searcher (Witchcrafter Genni, Fairy Tail - Matchgiru, Regulus, Genia) and try to reach a Fusion, Link or Xyz boss; hold Ash Blossom and Droll & Lock Bird for the opponent's turn. The plan is text-only and has no measured line.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the six-card hand for hand traps (Ash Blossom, Effect Veiler, Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit, Nibiru, Droll & Lock Bird) to stop the opponent's first summon chain, then rebuild through searchers. Probability of at least one hand trap is about 0.84.
• Recovery: Recover through Mulcharmy Fuwalos and Purulia draw effects, Witch of the Black Forest and the Fairy Tail recursion (Once Upon a Fairy Tail, Fairy Tail Ball). Recovery depends on the Witchcrafter core, which is only partly present.
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so no post-side plan can be evaluated. A legal build would need a side deck and a cut from the Extra Deck to reach the 15-card limit.

Why it scores here

This list is illegal in OCG (Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization at 3 copies each, and an 18-card Extra Deck against a 15-card cap), so the score is a structural estimate capped at 30 and not a normal Final score. The system reads as a loose Toolbox pile rather than one engine: only 1 of 52 Main Deck cards carries the exact Witchcrafter name (1.4%), with 69 off-archetype copies spread across Magistus, Fairy Tail, Endymion and Mulcharmy. Its real strength is interaction: 13 hand traps and 15 negation-text cards give a roughly 0.84 chance of at least one hand trap on a going-second six-card hand (Inferred). Combo conversion, median output and matchup fit are unmeasured (no combos, no tournament link), so those dimensions stay low-confidence or provisional. Popularity of the archetype's usage stats was not used to lift the score, and card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox. Structural ≈ 48, Going First ≈ 42, Going Second ≈ 55, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: Illegal list: copy-limit and Extra Deck overflow (-8); No side deck (-2). Final formula: Structural 48 → 0.80*48 + 0.20*35 = 45 pre-cap; Illegal cap sets final to 30 (theoretical/structural only; Meta Provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.83 · 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

• Heavy interaction: 13 hand traps and 15 negation-text cards
• Real Extra Deck boss options (Zoroa 2900, Summon Sorceress 2400 link, Mudragon 1900)
• High going-second hand-trap probability (about 0.84)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list (copy limits and Extra Deck size)
• Exact archetype purity 1.4%; the engine is split across Magistus, Fairy Tail and Endymion
• No side deck
• No recorded combos or tournament data to validate the plan

Critical choke points

• Starting-hand searcher density (about 0.83) gates every line
• Two copies of Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization must be cut to become legal
• Extra Deck must lose 3 cards to reach the 15 limit

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring and Super Polymerization each run 3 copies against a Semi-Limited limit of 2; Extra Deck holds 18 cards against an OCG cap of 15; Droll & Lock Bird, Fairy Tail - Snow, Instant Fusion and Summon Sorceress are Limited and run at 1 copy each (legal); Side Deck is empty
• Observed: Witchcrafter core present: 7 of 25 usage-core cards (28%) from the usage statistics
• Inferred: P(≥1 searcher in 5-card hand) ≈ 0.83; P(≥1 hand trap in 6-card hand) ≈ 0.84; Toolbox primary with Stun secondary, based on the hand-trap and negation density; Interaction quality (D7) from negation and removal text
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit (D13), 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 and starter rates) Meta Power provisional without a dated metagame sample No side deck registered
