Millennium Deck #771840 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 60 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Exodia the Forbidden One line: the five Forbidden One pieces in hand, or Millennium Ankh showing all five and Special Summoning The Unstoppable Exodia Incarnate, which wins through Exodia-style lethal or a direct LP drain route; Board pressure from Millennium and Blue-Eyes monsters (Heart of the Blue-Eyes, Sengenjin, Golem, Psychic End Punisher, Super Starslayer TY-PHON) once the opponent's board is cleared
• Turn 1 (going first): Open with Millennium-engine searchers (Shield, Sengenjin, Golem, Heart of the Blue-Eyes) and Wedju Temple / Millennium Ankh to reach the five Forbidden One pieces, while holding Ash, Infinite Impermanence and Solemn cards to protect the line
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the hand-trap suite (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit, Nibiru, Infinite Impermanence) and Solemn negations to stop the opponent's first summon chain, then rebuild through Heart of the Blue-Eyes and Millennium searchers
• Recovery: Recover through Heart of the Blue-Eyes discard to Ankh, Millennium searchers, Pot of Prosperity and Terraforming; Exodia pieces that are not on the field stay dead, so recovery depends on the Millennium engine rather than the Exodia pieces
• After siding: No side deck is built; any post-side plan is unverified and would have to be built from scratch within the 60-card main and 15-card extra limits

Why it scores here

This deck is scored as a system on its Millennium engine and its Exodia finisher, not as an average of its cards. Its ceiling comes from a real five-piece Exodia route and from a Millennium/Blue-Eyes engine that can reach large boards, but the line needs all five Forbidden One pieces, so the floor and median are low (no recorded combos exist to measure them). Interaction is the strongest part of the list: about eleven hand traps, three Solemn cards, Lightning Storm and Harpie's Feather Duster give it a broad, layered answer set that scores well on going-second. The list is illegal as built (three Ash Blossom and three Super Polymerization), so the normal Final formula is not applied and the score is capped at a theoretical, structural-only 30. Popularity in usage statistics confirms that the archetype core is real and accessible but did not earn any points on its own.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 56, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 66, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 42. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-6); single_card_dependence (-3); engine_conflicts (-2). Final formula: Illegal list: the normal formula is not applied. Pre-cap value would be 0.80*Structural(56) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(42) + modifiers(-11) = 42; capped at 30 and labelled theoretical/structural-only. Meta is provisional.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.92 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.08 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Layered interaction: hand traps, Solemn cards, Lightning Storm and Harpie's Feather Duster
• Real instant-win route through Exodia and Millennium Ankh
• Strong closing monsters in the Extra Deck (Exodia Incarnate, Psychic End Punisher, Super Starslayer TY-PHON)
• Archetype core (Exodia, Millennium, Heart of the Blue-Eyes) is present and matches usage statistics

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: three copies each of Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization
• Exodia line needs five specific single-copy pieces, so bricks and dead draws are likely
• Low archetype purity (13%) and many generic or tech slots
• No side deck, so there is no post-side plan
• No recorded combos or win-rate data to confirm the floor or median

Critical choke points

• All five Forbidden One pieces must be available for Millennium Ankh and Exodia Incarnate to work
• Heart of the Blue-Eyes discard is needed to reach Ankh
• Ash Blossom and Solemn cards are needed to protect the line from hand traps

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Deck is Illegal: Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization run 3 copies against OCG limit 2; Main 60 and Extra 15 are within OCG size rules; Side is 0; Exodia pieces, Solemn Judgment, Pot of Prosperity and Terraforming are Limited (1 copy each), so the run is legal on those cards; Archetype core inclusion and composition figures come from the evidence pack
• Inferred: Exodia line live probability and brick risk (hypergeometric, Main Deck only); Interaction density and going-second strength from card text; Ceiling and median are text-only inference; no recorded boards exist
• Provisional: Meta Power and format fit (no dated metagame sample); Tournament reliability (no tournament link or win-rate telemetry)
• 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 (going-first/second, matchup, brick/starter/OTK rates) Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied No side deck, so no post-side evidence
