Ryzeal Deck #771062 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 22/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Midrange, Xyz
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 4 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Xyz Summon Rank 8 or Rank 4 boss monsters (Number 62, Number 107, Galaxy-Eyes/Ryzeal Xyz) and convert board advantage into attacks; Ryzeal Detonator / Galaxy-Eyes Photon Lord style board control with Ryzeal Cross and Ext Ryzeal recursion
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Ryzeal or Star Ryzeal / Node Ryzeal starter, build a Rank 4 Xyz with Ext Ryzeal or Ice Ryzeal, and protect it with Ash Blossom and Ghost Ogre against the opponent's first interaction (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre and Infinite Impermanence to answer the opponent's first board, then rebuild an Xyz from the hand starter (Inferred)
• Recovery: Recover Ryzeal monsters from the GY through Ryzeal Plugin and Ryzeal Cross, and use Seventh Tachyon / Bonfire to search for the next starter (Inferred)
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no Side Deck (Side Deck size 0), so no post-side plan exists

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a connected system, not as an average of its card scores. Its Xyz core (Ext Ryzeal, Ice Ryzeal, Sword Ryzeal, Node Ryzeal, Star Ryzeal, Ryzeal Cross, Ryzeal Plugin) can reach a Rank 4 Xyz from hand, and three Ash Blossom plus three Ghost Ogre and two Infinite Impermanence give the deck real interaction density, which earns the points for end-board interaction and interruption resilience. Engine coherence is weak: only 12 of 55 cards carry the exact Ryzeal name, with Galaxy-Eyes, Seventh, Starliege and Tachyon spread across the main deck, so the starter sometimes does not continue into the same line and the engine conflicts cost points in consistency. The deck runs four cards over their copy limits (Seventh Tachyon x3, Ash Blossom x3, Ice Ryzeal x2, Sword Ryzeal x2), so it is Illegal in OCG and receives only a theoretical, structural-only score capped at 22. Archetype popularity and usage statistics confirm that the list is a real, accessible build, but they did not add points, and no combo boards, tournament results or meta sample were available to ground the median or matchup scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 46.6, Going First ≈ 42, Going Second ≈ 48, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); engine conflicts (-4). Final formula: Uncapped: 0.80*Structural(46.6) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(40) + Modifiers(-12) = 33.3; Meta provisional. Legality cap for Illegal decks applied: final = 22, theoretical/structural-only.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.82 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.18 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Dense Xyz-enabling Ryzeal starters with a high at-least-one-starter probability
• Three Ash Blossom and three Ghost Ogre give redundant hand-trap interaction
• Full 15-card Extra Deck of high-ATK Xyz bosses

Weaknesses

• Four over-limit copies make the list Illegal as built
• Engine split across Ryzeal, Galaxy-Eyes, Seventh, Starliege and Tachyon
• No Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan
• Small exact-archetype share (21.8%) for an Xyz engine

Critical choke points

• Rank 4 Xyz Summon from hand relies on a single Ryzeal starter or Ext Ryzeal
• Seventh Tachyon and Bonfire are the only searchers for the Ryzeal core after the first starter

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: four cards over copy limit under the OCG BanList; Main 40 and Extra 15 are within size rules; Card text for Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Infinite Impermanence, Ryzeal Cross and Number 62; Exact-name Ryzeal purity 21.8%
• Observed: Usage statistics: Ext Ryzeal 93%, Ash Blossom 64%, Ice Ryzeal 64% inclusion among archetype decks
• Inferred: Hypergeometric starter and hand-trap probabilities; Going-first and going-second plans from card text; Interruption and recovery routes
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit (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 record absent no win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchups or brick rates no Side Deck: post-side adaptability is unscorable usage statistics in this deck flags disagree with the cards list for Ryzeal Detonator, Ryzeal Duo Drive, Eclipse Twins and Mereologic Aggregator; the cards list was treated as authoritative deck title is null
