Exosister Deck #771225 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 58/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 41 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Xyz Summon high-ATK Exosister Xyz monsters (Magnifica, Karmael, Kaspitell) from Exosister starters and recursion, then close with double attacks or large boards; Off-archetype finishers (Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS, Super Starslayer TY-PHON, Sky Striker Ace - Azalea) when the Exosister lines are stopped
• Turn 1 (going first): Opening Exosister starter (Elis, Martha, Pax, Betrayal) to search a second Exosister, convert into an Xyz, and hold Infinite Impermanence or Ash Blossom for the first interaction
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Maxx C, Impermanence) to break the opponent's first board, then rebuild the Exosister engine from the Deck
• Recovery: Exosister searchers and Pax/Betrayal refill the hand from the Deck, while Ichiki Sayori-Hime and GY Exosisters re-enable the Xyz line
• After siding: Not applicable: the Side Deck is empty, so the deck cannot adapt between games of a best-of-three

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens its Exosister starters: three copies each of Elis, Martha, Pax and Betrayal give a combined searcher and starter density, and the archetype-core group is present in 99.8 percent of hands by the hypergeometric proxy (Inferred). Its ceiling comes from Exosister Xyz monsters with 2,100 to 2,800 ATK plus the off-archetype AA-ZEUS and TY-PHON finishers, but there are no recorded boards, so the median output is only estimated from text and scored with low confidence. Interaction is layered: eight hand traps (Impermanence, Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Maxx C) plus Dominus Purge and Ultimate Sky give a broad answer package for the going-second turn. The score comes from consistency, median output and interaction across the whole system, not from Exosister being a popular archetype (usage share confirms it is real but does not earn points), and not from averaging the individual card scores. Its weaknesses are the 25 off-archetype copies that dilute the engine, the empty Side Deck, and the many LP-cost and multi-step lines that lower pilotability.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 61.3, Going First ≈ 61, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 55. Modifiers: Off-archetype dilution (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) + ContextModifiers = 0.80*61.3 + 0.20*55 - 2 = 58

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.33 · 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

• Three-copy starters (Elis, Martha, Pax, Betrayal) and an archetype-core group present in almost every opening hand
• Eight hand traps and multiple negation and removal cards for layered interaction
• Strong Extra Deck finishers (Magnifica 2,800 ATK with double attack, TY-PHON, ZEUS)

Weaknesses

• Empty Side Deck gives no post-side plan
• 25 off-archetype copies (16 generic) dilute the engine
• No recorded boards, so the median and ceiling are not measured

Critical choke points

• Exosister starter access on turn 1 depends on drawing Elis, Martha, Pax or Betrayal (about 0.33 per 3-copy card in opening 5)
• Pax and Xyz lines require LP payments and a live Exosister monster in play

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: 41 Main, 15 Extra, 0 Side; Legal; Limited/Semi-Limited copy limits respected; Card text and stats for all 33 distinct cards; Archetype-core usage statistics
• Observed: No observed combo boards (0 parseable)
• Inferred: Starter and hand-trap probabilities; Going-first and going-second estimates; Interaction quality from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power (null) and matchup fit (D13); Side-deck adaptability (D12) with an empty Side Deck
• 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 are absent usage statistics in this deck flags conflict with the resolved cards list for several cards (for example Mikailis, Karmael, Magnifica, Kaspitell show in this deck false while the cards list shows 3, 2, 2 and 2 copies); the resolved cards list was used No win-rate telemetry exists (going-first/second, matchup, starter and brick rates) Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample Deck title is null in the export
