Ryzeal Deck #771562 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 38/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 4 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra Deck boss monsters (Jupiter the Power Patron of Destruction, DoomZ XII End - Drastrius, DoomZ XIII Over - Graflareio, Ryzeal Detonator) reached through a DoomZ / Ryzeal / Mulcharmy starter mix (theoretical only: the list is illegal); Lava Golem and Nibiru as high-ATK finishers, supported by hand-trap disruption
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a starter from the DoomZ or Ryzeal lines, use Pot of Sloth / Mulcharmy draw effects for card flow, and protect the board with Solemn Strike and hand traps
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Droll & Lock Bird and Nibiru to answer the opponent's first summons, then rebuild through searchers
• Recovery: Recycle Ryzeal and DoomZ monsters from the GY (Ryzeal Cross, Medius the Pure) and re-summon through Extra Deck Xyz monsters
• After siding: No Side Deck is run (0 cards), so no post-side plan is available; a best-of-3 plan cannot be evaluated

Why it scores here

The deck opens on a three-archetype starter mix (DoomZ, Ryzeal and Mulcharmy) with no single engine line, and the archetype-core hypergeometric estimate is about 0.76 for at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand, so it usually has a starter but with shallow redundancy. Its strongest area is interaction: three Ash Blossom, two Ghost Belle, Droll & Lock Bird, Solemn Strike and Nibiru give several layers of negation and hand-trap disruption. Closing power comes from high-ATK Extra Deck bosses such as Jupiter (3500 ATK) and Ryzeal Detonator. Combo, median and matchup scores are low because no combos, tournament record or meta data exist, and the list is illegal, so the score is theoretical and structural only. Popularity and archetype usage were not credited, and card scores were not averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 54, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 56, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 38. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-6); engine conflicts (-4); no post-side plan (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional); Structural 53.5 gives 50.4, then -12 modifiers = 38 (illegal list, theoretical/structural-only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.76 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.24 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Layered negation and hand-trap interaction (Ash x3, Ghost Belle x2, Droll, Solemn, Nibiru)
• High-ATK Extra Deck closers (Jupiter, Detonator, Drastrius, Graflareio)
• Multiple searcher and draw effects for resource recovery

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy-limit violations (Seventh Tachyon, Ash Blossom, Ice Ryzeal, Sword Ryzeal)
• Three archetype engines compete for the same slots, giving low purity (12.9%)
• No Side Deck, so no post-side plan
• Extra Deck mixes unrelated Xyz families

Critical choke points

• Starter access depends on Ryzeal or DoomZ monsters that must be present in hand or GY
• Limited cards (Ryzeal Detonator, Ext Ryzeal, Bonfire, Droll) are single copies, so losing one removes a line

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: 4 copy-limit violations and 7 restricted cards in the OCG banlist; Composition: 55 Main, 15 Extra, 0 Side, 12.9% exact-archetype purity; Card stats for Jupiter, Detonator and Lava Golem
• Inferred: Starter access probability (0.7555) and full-brick estimate (0.2445); Hand-trap probability going second (0.6296); Interaction and resilience scores from card text; Going-first and going-second estimates
• Provisional: Meta Power (null) and matchup fit (D13)
• Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link — archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN — going-first/second, matchup, brick and OTK rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied deck is illegal as built; score is theoretical and structural only
