Legality
Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).
Identity & game plan
- Win condition: Link Summon Salamangreat Link Monsters (Raging Phoenix, Pyro Phoenix) off Cyberse and FIRE material, then attack for 2800-class pressure; Salamangreat Miragestallio and Synchro/Xyz finishers through the Link engine, plus recursion from the GY
- Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon Salamangreat of Fire or Gazelle to search a Level 4 or lower Salamangreat, then Circle or Cynet Mining to reach a Link Summon
- Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Ghost Ogre, Nibiru and D.D. Crow to protect the first board, then rebuild through Salamangreat GY revival
- Recovery: Recycle Salamangreat monsters from the GY through Gazelle, Foxy, Spinny and Jack Jaguar effects, and re-enter the Link Summon route
- After siding: No side deck is registered, so no post-side plan can be evaluated
Why it scores here
This OCG Salamangreat list reliably opens a Level 3 starter with the archetype core: P(at least one archetype-core card in a 5-card opening hand) is about 0.83, and the 2-card bootstrap through Gazelle or Circle is plausible on going first. The deck converts that opening into Link Summons into 2800-ATK Phoenix Links and Miragestallio, so the Link Extra Deck and Link-material engine are its main output. Interaction is dense (20 hand traps and 17 negation-text cards), which earns the going-second score rather than the going-first score. The score is capped to 30 because the list is illegal (Ash Blossom at 3 copies against a limit of 2), and it has no side deck, no combo corpus, and no tournament data. The score is not based on Salamangreat being a popular archetype, and card scores were not averaged.
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | Engine Accessibility & Consistency | 60 | P(at least one archetype-core card in a 5-card hand) ≈ 0.83; starter-specific odds ≈ 0.25 per 3-copy card (Inferred) |
| D2 | Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management | 40 | 30 tech and 20 hand traps across 55 main slots leave a high dead-card share in hand (Inferred) |
| D3 | Combo Conversion & Ceiling | 50 | No recorded boards; Link ceiling read from card text for Raging Phoenix and Pyro Phoenix (Inferred) |
| D4 | Combo Floor & Median Output | 45 | No combos evidence, so median output is text-only and uncertain (Inferred) |
| D5 | Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy | 60 | Ghost Belle, Ghost Ogre, D.D. Crow and Nibiru give multiple interruption outlets; recursion adds more (Inferred) |
| D6 | Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind | 60 | 11 searcher-text cards and GY revival text sustain card flow (Inferred) |
| D7 | End-Board & Interaction Quality | 65 | 17 negation-text and 29 removal-text cards provide dense interaction (Inferred) |
| D8 | Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power | 70 | Going-second hand-trap coverage at 0.94 with 6-card hand; board-breaking via Pyro Phoenix (Inferred) |
| D9 | Offensive Pressure & Closing Power | 60 | 2800-ATK Phoenix Links and 2000-ATK Miragestallio give closing pressure; no piercing or direct-attack data beyond text (Inferred) |
| D10 | Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility | 40 | 55 main slots with 27 distinct cards and 30 tech-tagged copies; compactness is weak (Inferred) |
| D11 | Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage | 60 | 15 Extra slots with 13 Links and 1 Synchro and 1 Xyz; coverage is broad but skewed to Links (Verified structure) |
| D12 | Side Deck Adaptability | 10 | No side deck registered (Side Deck size 0), so adaptability cannot be scored beyond 10 (Verified) |
| D13 | Matchup Coverage & Format Fit | 45 | No tournament link and no dated meta sample; archetype share unknown (Provisional) |
| D14 | Pilotability & Error Tolerance | 60 | Multi-step Link chains and several hand-trap timings require decision points, but the core line is standard (Inferred) |
How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 54, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 65, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: Banlist exposure (illegal copy limit) (-8); No side deck (-3). Final formula: Theoretical 0.80*Structural(54.2) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) = 52.4, plus modifiers -11 = 41.4; capped to 30 because the list is Illegal (no normal Final Contextual score). Meta Power null (provisional).
Probability & combo summary
- Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.83 · 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 core with 16 Salamangreat-core copies
- Heavy hand-trap and negation coverage for going second
- Broad Link Extra Deck with 13 Link monsters including two 2800-ATK Phoenix Links
Weaknesses
- Illegal copy-limit violation on Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring
- High tech count (30) in a 55-card main deck lowers consistency
- No side deck registered
Critical choke points
- Ash Blossom at 3 copies is illegal and removes a hand-trap copy once corrected
- Link Summon route depends on Cyberse/FIRE material and a specific Level 4 or lower starter
Recommended changes
| Priority | Remove | Add | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1x Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring | 1x legal non-limited hand trap or Salamangreat starter | Fixes the copy-limit violation so the deck is evaluable for a normal Final score |
| 2 | 2x low-impact tech cards | 1x Salamangreat starter or searcher | Reduces brick rate and raises archetype-core density for the Link engine |
| 3 | none | a 15-card side deck | Enables a post-side plan and lets the deck adapt in best-of-3 play |
Evidence & confidence
- Verified: Main 55 and Extra 15 are within OCG size limits; Ash Blossom run at 3 copies exceeds legal limit of 2; Droll & Lock Bird and Harpie's Feather Duster run at 1 copy each and are Limited; Side Deck size is 0
- Inferred: Opening-hand starter and core probabilities from hypergeometric estimates; Brick rate from tech and hand-trap density; Interaction density from card text role hints; Going-second hand-trap coverage
- Provisional: Meta share and format fit (no dated sample or tournament link); Tournament reliability
- Data gaps: No combos supplied, so floor, median and ceiling rest on card text only No tournament link, so archetype meta share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN for this deck No side deck registered Usage stats cover only 14 core cards, and 6 of them (Hiita, Promethean Princess, Mulcharmy Fuwalos, Miragestallio, Pyro Phoenix, Sunlight Wolf) are absent from this list Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample
