Infernity Deck #771302 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 52 / Extra 13 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Infernity and Fiendsmith board presence converted through the Link and Fusion Extra Deck closers in the list (Underworld Goddess of the Closed World, Luce the Dusk's Dark, Fiendsmith's Desirae, A Bao A Qu); Archfiend and Unchained follow-up through Link Summons (Unchained Soul Lord of Yama, Unchained Soul of Rage)
• Turn 1 (going first): Open on the Infernity and Archfiend searchers and the Fiendsmith search chain, then use Infernity Archfiend and Infernity Necromancer to build a board while holding Solemn Judgment and Solemn Strike for interaction. Plan is theoretical: the list as written is illegal.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the hand traps (Evenly Matched, Droll & Lock Bird) and Solemn Judgment to break the opponent's first board, then rebuild through Mulcharmy draw effects. Hand-trap access on going second is about 0.40 (Inferred).
• Recovery: Recover from the GY through Infernity Launcher, This Creepy Little Punk and Infernity Patriarch, and Archfiend Heiress and Muckraker From the Underworld for the searches and GY recursion listed in their text.
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered, so no post-side plan can be evaluated. Best-of-3 play is not supported by this list.

Why it scores here

This list is Illegal as submitted: Fiendsmith Engraver and Fiendsmith's Tract are each run three times against a one-copy Limited limit, so the score is a theoretical, structural-only read and is capped low. Structurally the deck has a reasonable engine core (about 71% at least one archetype-core card in a 5-card opening hand, Inferred) and real interaction density (ten negation-text cards, four hand traps, and seventeen removal-text cards). Its Extra Deck covers Link and Fusion closers, but the combo evidence is empty, so there is no recorded board floor, median, or ceiling to confirm any line works. Popularity did not earn points, and no card scores were averaged into the deck score. Meta Power is provisional because no dated metagame sample was supplied.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary with Stun secondary; weights below are the Midrange profile. Structural ≈ 44, Going First ≈ 40, Going Second ≈ 42, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers(-8); Illegal list, so this is a theoretical, structural-only score

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.71 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.29 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Engine core of 11 archetype-core copies gives about 0.71 chance of at least one in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred)
• Interaction density is high: four hand traps, ten negation-text cards and seventeen removal-text cards (Verified text flags)
• Extra Deck offers several high-ATK Link and Fusion closers (Verified stats)

Weaknesses

• Illegal as submitted: two Limited cards over the copy limit (Verified)
• Low exact-name archetype purity at 10.8%; the list draws from six related sub-archetypes (Verified)
• No combo evidence, so no recorded board floor, median or ceiling (Verified absence)
• No Side Deck, so no best-of-3 adaptation (Verified)

Critical choke points

• Fiendsmith's Tract and Fiendsmith Engraver are the search backbone of the Fiendsmith lines and are illegal at the current copy count
• Hand-trap access on the going-second turn is about 0.40 (Inferred)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Fiendsmith Engraver and Fiendsmith's Tract each run 3 copies against a legal limit of 1; Main 52, Extra 13, Side 0 are within the OCG size rules; Banlist statuses and card texts from the export; Composition counts and the archetype spread
• Inferred: Opening-hand probabilities (about 0.71 for the archetype core; about 0.40 for going-second hand traps); Interaction density and resilience estimates from text flags; Pilotability and brick-rate estimates
• Provisional: Meta Power and matchup fit (no dated metagame sample); Tournament reliability (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 in YGOVN; going-first, going-second, matchup and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied no Side Deck; post-side plan cannot be evaluated
