Endymion Deck #771123 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion/Link pressure from Magistus and Fairy Tail extra-deck monsters, with Endymion/Regulus as a secondary threat (Inferred from card text; no combo boards recorded); Endymion Link and Verre-based Special Summon chains (Inferred)
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a searcher or Special Summon starter (Regulus, Verre Magic, Fairy Tail Ball) and Fusion or Link into a board; Ash Blossom and Droll protect the first line (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom and Droll as hand traps to answer the opponent's first summon, then rebuild through Fairy Tail and Magistus searchers (Inferred)
• Recovery: Search and Special Summon from Deck and GY with Regulus, Verre and Fairy Tail monsters; Endymion Empire recovers the Regulus line (Inferred)
• 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 capped low because it is illegal: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring and Super Polymerization are each run three times against a Semi-Limited limit of two. Structurally, its best feature is access. The archetype core group has about a 92% chance of at least one card in a 5-card opening hand, and 17 searcher-text cards plus 13 negation-text cards give it recovery and interaction. Its weaknesses are identity and cohesion. Only 6 of 55 main-deck copies are exact Endymion, and the rest split across Magistus, Fairy Tail, Mulcharmy and generic cards, so the engines compete for the same slots. No recorded boards exist, so floor, median and ceiling are text-only estimates. Popularity was not credited, and the score is not an average of card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 45, Going First ≈ 45, Going Second ≈ 42, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: Copy-limit violation (illegal deck) (-10); Engine conflict across sub-archetypes (-4). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional); Illegal cap applied: 44 - 14 = 30

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.34 · 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 and recovery text (17 searcher-text cards)
• Two hand traps plus a negation-heavy Main Deck give interaction
• Extra Deck is full with Fusion and Link options
• Core Endymion/Regulus/Verre engine is present

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy counts for Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization
• Three sub-archetypes (Magistus, Fairy Tail, Endymion) compete for slots
• Only 6 exact Endymion copies in 55 main and extra slots
• No side deck
• No recorded combos, so ceiling and median are unknown

Critical choke points

• Regulus and Verre engine: depends on 3-copy Regulus and 1-copy Verre
• Fusion and Link Extra Deck monsters: most boards need a specific extra-deck summon

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Copy-limit violations: Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization at 3 copies against a limit of 2; Main 40, Extra 15, Side 0 are within the OCG size rules; Archetype purity: 6 exact Endymion copies
• Observed: Composition counts: 10 Fusion, 4 Link, 1 Xyz in the Extra Deck; Copy histogram: 11 singletons, 1 double, 9 triples
• Inferred: Brick risk and consistency from hypergeometric estimates (0.338 per 3-copy card; 0.919 core group); Midrange strategy label from searcher and negation text; Going-first and going-second plans from card text
• Provisional: Meta power and matchup fit (no dated metagame sample); Tournament reliability
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and match record absent No win-rate telemetry for this format Meta Power is Provisional with no dated metagame sample Usage statistics conflict with the card list: Endymion, the Crescent Magistus and Zoroa, the Magistus Verethragna appear in the Extra Deck list but are reported as in this deck:false and missing core cards, so core-card coverage (60%) is not reliable No Side Deck, so no post-side evidence
