Danger! Deck #771271 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 59 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Danger! monsters and Extra Deck boss monsters (Titanic Galaxy, Galaxy-Eyes Photon Lord, Black Luster Soldier) converting board advantage into attacks; Xyz and Link pressure from the Extra Deck once a Danger! body is on the field
• Turn 1 (going first): Reveal and discard Danger! monsters from hand to Special Summon a second Danger! monster and draw, then Link or Xyz into a boss using the two bodies
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Infinite Impermanence, Effect Veiler, Droll & Lock Bird) and Lightning Vortex to slow the opponent, then rebuild with the same hand-discard summon chain
• Recovery: Monster Reincarnation and Danger! Response Team/Second Expedition recursion, plus Chupacabra and Mothman draws, to rebuild the Danger! chain after a board wipe
• After siding: Not available: the deck runs no Side Deck (0 cards), so there is no post-side adjustment

Why it scores here

The structural read rests on the Danger! engine: 22 of 59 Main Deck cards are Danger! monsters that each reveal from hand, force a discard, and Special Summon a second body while drawing, so P(at least one starter in an opening 5) is roughly 0.91 (Inferred from the hypergeometric draw table). Interruption resilience and recovery are reasonable because several independent hand-starters, Monster Reincarnation, and Danger! Response Team/Second Expedition recursion give more than one route. Interaction is moderate: 10 hand-trap or negate-text cards and Lightning Vortex, but no side deck. The Extra Deck (Titanic Galaxy, Galaxy-Eyes Photon Lord, Black Luster Soldier) supplies closing power. Structural power lands near 59, but the deck runs Allure of Darkness three times against a Limited-1 restriction, so it is illegal and the Final score is capped at 30 as a theoretical, structural-only read. Popularity did not earn points: usage stats show the archetype core is absent from this list, and no combo boards or tournament data exist. Card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 59, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 55, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); no side deck (-4). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural(58.5) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(50) + Modifiers(-12) = 44.8, then capped to 30 because the deck is Illegal (theoretical/structural-only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.91 · 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

• Self-starting Danger! monsters give high opening-hand access to the engine
• Several independent hand-starters and recursion spells recover after one disruption
• Hand traps and Lightning Vortex provide layered interaction against a board
• Extra Deck bosses supply strong closing attack values

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: Allure of Darkness run 3 copies against a Limited-1 restriction
• No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptation
• No combo or tournament data, so floor and matchup reads are unsupported
• Several fringe Extra Deck choices (Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon, Time Thief Redoer, I:P Masquerena) dilute coherence

Critical choke points

• Danger! hand-reveal chain depends on the random opponent discard, so a single hand-disruption card can shut down the first summon
• Extra Deck Xyz/Link lines depend on the same few Level 8 and Level 4 bodies

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Allure of Darkness is at 3 copies against a Limited-1 restriction (illegal); Main Deck 59, Extra Deck 15, Side Deck 0 against the OCG size rules; Danger! monster count (22) and hand-trap count (10) from the card list
• Inferred: P(at least one Danger! starter in opening 5) roughly 0.91; Engine accessibility and interruption resilience from self-starting hand effects; Interaction quality from card text (hand traps and negate effects)
• Provisional: Meta and matchup fit (no dated sample or 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 and matchup rates unknown Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample
