Sacred Beast Deck #771448 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Midrange, Control
• 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: Phantasm / Yubel boss Extra Deck monsters (Raviel, Hamon, Uria, Gustav Rocket, Yubel fusions) reached through Sacred Beast Special Summon chains; Link and Fusion beatsticks (Chaotic Phantasmal Sacred Beasts, Thunder Dragon Colossus, Starving Venom) and Mulcharmy card advantage
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Sacred Beast or Yubel starter (Martyr, Thunderclap, Spirit of Yubel, Yubel) and extend into Phantasm boss summons; protect with Ash Blossom and Droll & Lock Bird
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Ash Blossom, Droll and Lightning Storm to break the opponent's board, then rebuild through Mulcharmy draws and Sacred Beast recursion
• Recovery: Recover from the GY and banishment via Fallen Paradise of the Sacred Beasts, Sacred Beasts Released, Mature Chronicle and Yubel revival effects
• After siding: Not evaluable: side deck is empty (0 cards), so there is no post-side plan in the list

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens an archetype starter: the core Sacred Beast and Phantasm group (19 copies) gives about an 87% chance of at least one in a 5-card opening hand (hypergeometric, Inferred), and a searcher-heavy text profile supports the T1 route. Conversion is credited from card text only, because no recorded boards exist; the ceiling comes from Phantasm and Yubel Extra Deck bosses (4000 to 5000 ATK) and the median is scored low because nothing shows what the deck usually produces. Interaction is layered (Ash Blossom, Droll and Lock Bird, Lightning Storm, Harpie's Feather Duster, Forbidden Droplet, Nightmare Pain), which is the main reason for the Structural score. The deck is scored as a connected system, not as an average of its card scores, and its popularity in the usage table was not counted as power. The final score is held down by the illegal copy count (Ash Blossom at 3 vs a limit of 2), no side deck, no tournament data and no combo corpus.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 53.3, Going First ≈ 58, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 42. Modifiers: Over copy limit (banlist exposure) (-12). Final formula: Theoretical only (illegal list). Uncapped: 0.80*53.3 + 0.20*42 + modifiers(-12) = 39; capped to 35 under the illegal-deck rule. Meta Power provisional/null.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.87 · 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 archetype starter access (about 87% for at least one core card in a going-first 5-card hand)
• Layered interaction: 3 Ash Blossom, Droll and Lock Bird, Lightning Storm, Harpie's Feather Duster, Forbidden Droplet
• High-end Extra Deck closers (4000 to 5000 ATK bosses) with GY and banish recursion

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: 3 Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring against a limit of 2
• Zero side deck, so no post-side plan and no adaptation after game 1
• Heavy reliance on Yubel and Phantasm procedures with many once-per-turn effects, which raises error load
• Non-engine dead cards (Heavy Slump, Triple Tactics Thrust, Different Dimension Ground) increase brick risk

Critical choke points

• The Yubel line depends on Yubel - Terror Incarnate and Spirit of Yubel; losing them to one answer removes most Extra Deck access
• Lightning Storm needs an empty opposing field to be live
• Phantasm bosses require a Level 10 Sacred Beast on the field to summon

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring runs 3 copies against an OCG Semi-Limited limit of 2 (legality.violations); Main 59 is within the OCG 40 to 60 range; Extra 15 is at the 15 maximum; side 0 is legal; Droll & Lock Bird, Harpie's Feather Duster, Linkuriboh, Phantom of Yubel, S:P Little Knight and Gustav Max are each run 1 copy, which is within their Limited status; Archetype usage table: 16 stat rows; core present 11 of 14 by its own count, with core cards in the list at typical copies
• Observed: Usage statistics show high inclusion for Sacred Beasts Thunderclap (95.7%), Martyr (94.2%) and Raviel (91.3%) across archetype lists
• Inferred: Starter access of about 87% for at least one core card in a going-first hand (hypergeometric); Structural scoring of consistency, brick risk, interaction and closing power from card text; Conversion ceiling and interaction quality from text only, with no recorded boards
• Provisional: Meta Power and D13 matchup fit, since no dated metagame sample exists; Post-side performance, since the side deck is empty
• 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 No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN for this deck Usage statistics mark The Chaotic Phantasmal Sacred Beasts, S:P Little Knight and Thunder Dragon Colossus as in this deck=false, but the cards list includes each at 1 copy in the Extra Deck, so the usage and card data disagree Side deck is empty (0 cards): no post-side plan can be evaluated Title is null on the deck record
