Kashtira Deck #770963 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 36/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 58 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Kashtira and Mimighoul board pressure (Kashtira Unicorn 2500 ATK, Number F0 and Divine Arsenal Extra Deck threats) converted after the hand-trap and negation layer buys time; no recorded boards confirm this line; Link and Xyz beatdown from Knightmare, Accesscode Talker and Underworld Goddess once the board is stable
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a starter from Mimighoul Maker, Mimighoul Dungeon or Kashtira Birth, then keep Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence and Effect Veiler up while searching Kashtira Unicorn; inferred from text only
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the 19 hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Evenly Matched, D.D. Crow, Effect Veiler and others) to answer the opponent's first summon, then rebuild through Mimighoul recursion and Extra Deck summons
• Recovery: Mimighoul Dungeon and Mimighoul Maker recur Flip monsters and Mimighoul cards from the Deck, while Ghost Belle and Ash Blossom recover from the GY; inferred from text only
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan; the list is the same for every game

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a system, not by averaging its cards. Its core Mimighoul and Kashtira engine is reachable in about 73 percent of opening hands with at least one core card (Inferred, hypergeometric), and 19 hand traps give a strong going-second interaction layer (92 percent chance of at least one in a six-card hand, Inferred). The Extra Deck closers (Number F0, Divine Arsenal, Underworld Goddess) support a real win condition, but no recorded boards exist, so the ceiling and median are text-only estimates. The score is held down by the legality failure: three copies of Ash Blossom and Kashtira Unicorn exceed the OCG limits, which caps the normal score. Popularity and archetype usage were not counted as power.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 49.7, Going First ≈ 52, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: Banlist exposure (illegal copy limit) (-10); No side deck (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional); then an illegal-list cap via modifiers (-12 total)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.73 · 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 hand-trap and negation layer that covers both going-first and going-second turns
• Multiple Extra Deck closers (Number F0, Divine Arsenal, Underworld Goddess) for a real end-board
• Mimighoul recursion and search text gives continuation after disruption

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy counts for Ash Blossom and Kashtira Unicorn must be fixed before the list can be played
• Very low archetype purity (5.5 percent exact Kashtira), so the engine is diffuse
• No side deck at all, so no post-side adaptation
• No recorded combos or boards, so the ceiling and median are unsupported

Critical choke points

• Kashtira Unicorn is limited to 1 copy, so the Kashtira engine depends on one card
• The Mimighoul engine needs Mimighoul Dungeon or Maker to start, with little redundancy among starters

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Illegal, with copy-limit violations on Ash Blossom (3 vs 2) and Kashtira Unicorn (3 vs 1); Main 58, Extra 15, Side 0 counts; no Side Deck cards; Card text and banlist status for every listed card
• Observed: Archetype usage: Kashtira Unicorn, Ash Blossom and Mulcharmy Fuwalos are in the core list of the archetype (usage stats)
• Inferred: Opening-hand consistency (73 percent for an archetype core card in hand 5, 92 percent hand trap in hand 6); Interaction density and resilience from card text; Going-first and going-second estimates
• Provisional: Meta Power (null, no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit (no tournament data)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link, so archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record are absent No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN, so going-first, going-second, matchup and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample No side deck, so post-side adaptability cannot be measured Only one guide snippet, with no section detail
