Exodia Deck #771839 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 25/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Control
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 60 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Assemble all five Forbidden One pieces (Exodia the Forbidden One plus four limbs) in hand for an immediate win, with Millennium and Exodia-adjacent engines (Millennium Ankh, Shield, Sengenjin, Golem, Heart of the Blue-Eyes) searching and recycling pieces; Ceiling-level boards via Unstoppable Exodia Incarnate, Obliterate!!! Blaze and Exxod Fires of Rage; there is no recorded combo evidence to confirm these lines
• Turn 1 (going first): Open with Millennium engine searchers and Wedju Temple or Millennium Ankh to fetch Exodia pieces, using Solemn and Ash Blossom as protection; all five pieces by turn 2 is very unlikely from a 5-card hand
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit, Nibiru) to disrupt the opponent's first board, then convert through Millennium searches and Extra Deck summons
• Recovery: Recover through Heart of the Blue-Eyes and Exxod Fires of Rage in the Graveyard and Sengenjin/Shield searches; recovery depends on hitting the specific Limited pieces
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered, so no post-side plan exists in this list

Why it scores here

This OCG Exodia list is scored as a connected system, not as an average of its cards: its 60-card main deck and 15-card Extra Deck are assessed on whether they can reliably assemble the five-piece Exodia win and the Millennium engine that feeds it. Engine accessibility is moderate: the three-copy starters (Millennium Ankh, Shield, Sengenjin, Golem, Heart of the Blue-Eyes) each have only about 23% chance of appearing in a 5-card opening hand, while each single-copy Forbidden One limb is about 8%, so the win condition is slow and brick-prone. Interaction is the strongest facet, with 11 hand traps and multiple negate and removal texts giving a credible going-second plan. The list is Illegal because Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization are each run three times against a two-copy limit, so the result is a theoretical, structural-only score capped at 25 and not a normal contextual score. Popularity and archetype usage did not earn points, and no tournament, win-rate or combo data supports any higher score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 42, Going First ≈ 35, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 30. Modifiers: Banlist exposure (-4); Unrecoverable choke point (-3); Engine conflicts (-3). Final formula: Theoretical only: 0.80*Structural(42) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(30) + Modifiers(-10) = 30, then capped at 25 because the deck is Illegal (over copy limit on two cards). Meta Power provisional/null.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.23 · 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 hand-trap and negation suite (11 hand traps, 13 negation-text cards) with good going-second coverage
• Searcher density (15 searcher-text cards) gives a 0.78 chance of at least one searcher in a 5-card hand
• Extra Deck access is reliable with three Unstoppable Exodia Incarnate

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization exceed the OCG limit of two
• Five-piece Exodia win needs single-copy Limited pieces, so assembly is slow and brick-prone
• Low archetype purity (10.7 percent) with many off-archetype engine cards

Critical choke points

• Exodia the Forbidden One and the four limbs are single copies: losing one to a negate or a Solemn removes the win
• Millennium Ankh and Wedju Temple are the main searchers into the Exodia pieces, and both are three-copy or two-copy starters with low opening odds

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 60, Extra 15, Side 0 counts; OCG size rules 40-60 / 0-15 / 0-15 pass; Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring and Super Polymerization run 3 copies against limit 2 (Illegal); Limited status and single-copy counts for the five Forbidden One pieces, Solemn Judgment, Pot of Prosperity, Terraforming, Droll & Lock Bird, Bystial Magnamhut and S:P Little Knight
• Inferred: Starter and hand-trap probabilities (hypergeometric, Main Deck only); Combo strength and brick rate estimated from card text, since no boards were supplied; Interaction density and going-second plan from text flags
• Provisional: Meta Power and format fit (no dated metagame sample or tournament link)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied, so floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link, so archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchup or brick rates No Side Deck, so post-side adaptation cannot be scored Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample
