Performapal Deck #771493 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Pendulum-summoned Extra Deck Dragon bosses (Odd-Eyes Rebellion family at 3000 ATK) fed by Pendulum and searcher density.; Link and Xyz follow-ups through the Extra Deck Link and Xyz options present in the list.
• Turn 1 (going first): Set up a Pendulum Zone with valid scales, search with Duelist Alliance, Sky Iris or Performapal Odd-Eyes Seer, then Pendulum Summon toward a Dragon boss while holding hand traps.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Infinite Impermanence, Ash Blossom, Effect Veiler, Ghost Ogre) to stop the opponent's first engine, then rebuild through searchers.
• Recovery: Searchers and Pendulum-zone recursion (Shade the Obscure, Performapal Odd-Eyes Seer) rebuild the hand after a disruption, as text suggests (Inferred).
• After siding: No side deck is supplied, so no post-side plan can be evaluated.

Why it scores here

The deck opens a functional plan reliably through searcher density: 29 searcher-text cards give a 0.98 chance of at least one searcher in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred). Its interaction is dense, with 11 hand traps, 22 negation-text and 28 removal-text cards, which lifts the end-board and going-second scores. Its Extra Deck supplies several boss and Link options, so the Extra slots are not wasted. Conversion, floor and median output are scored from card text only because no combos were supplied, so those scores stay low and carry wide uncertainty. Popularity and archetype usage stats earned no points, and no card scores were averaged into the deck. The list is Illegal (Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring at 3 copies against a limit of 2), so the final score is capped at 30 and labelled structural-only.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 54, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 55, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); engine conflicts (-3). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + modifiers = 40 before cap; capped at 30 because the deck is Illegal (rubric Step 2). Meta provisional.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.25 · 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

• Searcher density is very high: 29 searcher-text cards, P(at least one searcher in opening 5) 0.98 (Inferred)
• Dense interaction: 11 hand traps plus 22 negation-text and 28 removal-text cards
• Extra Deck covers Link, Xyz, Synchro and Fusion boss options, with several 3000-ATK Odd-Eyes Dragons

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring runs 3 copies against a Semi-Limited limit of 2
• No side deck (Side Deck size 0), so post-side adaptability is absent
• Low compactness: 28 distinct main cards, 1.4% exact archetype purity, 69 off-archetype copies across related sub-archetypes
• No combo evidence: floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference

Critical choke points

• Pendulum Zone scale setup: an invalid scale pair stalls the Pendulum Summon engine
• Extra Deck boss access depends on Pendulum summons, so a stopped Pendulum Summon also stops the boss plan

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring: 3 copies run vs 2 legal (Semi-Limited); Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 within OCG size rules; Droll & Lock Bird and S:P Little Knight run 1 copy each, within Limited; Hypergeometric: 3-copy card P(at least one in hand 5) 0.2529; searcher P(at least one in hand 5) 0.9811
• Observed: Usage stats flag 4 of 14 archetype core cards as present, but the in this deck flag ignores Extra Deck cards, so the coverage figure is understated
• Inferred: D1 engine access about 62 from searcher density and Pendulum scales; Interaction density about 72 from hand-trap and negation/removal text; Moderate brick risk from 28 distinct main cards
• Provisional: Meta power and matchup fit (D13) need a dated meta sample
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta share and pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry for this deck usage statistics in this deck flags are false for Extra Deck core cards (Exceed the Pendulum, Odd-Eyes Absolute Dragon, Odd-Eyes Vortex Dragon, Beyond the Pendulum, Odd-Eyes Override Dragon, I:P Masquerena, Accesscode Talker) although those cards appear in the cards list; core coverage 4/14 is understated No side deck supplied Deck title is null
