Kaiju Deck #771981 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Radiant Typhoon Quick-Play chain into large WIND boards (Fonix 3000 ATK, Varuroon, Krosea, Swen) and Extra Deck beaters; Fusion or Link beatdown from Extra Deck (The Dragon that Devours the Dogma, Starving Venom, Hraesvelgr)
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Mystical Space Typhoon or a Radiant Typhoon searcher, then Quick-Play chain to summon a Radiant Typhoon monster; no combo data to confirm the turn-1 line
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird and Nibiru as hand traps against the opponent's starter, then rebuild through Quick-Play searchers
• Recovery: Recycle Quick-Play Spells via Radiant Typhoon Mandate and the Mystical Space Typhoon-triggered GY effects (text only, Inferred)
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck is a Radiant Typhoon Quick-Play engine with a heavy search package (17 searcher-text cards), 6 hand traps and 8 negation-text cards, so its interaction and resource recovery score above its consistency. Starter access is the main limit: three Mystical Space Typhoon give only about a 25% chance of holding one in an opening 5, and many Radiant Typhoon effects need an MST in the GY or an empty opposing Spell/Trap zone. There is no recorded combo data, so floor, median and ceiling are text-only Inferred reads and no combo-based score was earned. Popularity did not earn points: the Kaiju label has zero Kaiju cards and the list's archetype purity is 0%, and no card scores were averaged into the deck score. The list is Illegal (three cards over their Semi-Limited copy limit) and runs no Side Deck, so the score is capped at 30 and is theoretical/structural only.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary; Stun is a secondary read only, weights not blended. Structural ≈ 51, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 55, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 42. Modifiers: copy-limit and banlist exposure (-6). Final formula: Illegal cap: min(0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + Modifiers, 30); Meta Provisional. Computed 0.80*51 + 0.20*42 - 6 = 43, capped to 30.

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

• Quick-Play searcher package (17 searcher-text cards) gives resource recovery
• Six hand traps plus negation and removal text give layered interaction
• Extra Deck has high-ATK closers (Fonix, Dragon Devours the Dogma, TY-PHON)

Weaknesses

• Illegal: three cards over their Semi-Limited copy limit
• No Side Deck, so no best-of-3 adaptation
• Kaiju label does not match any card in the list; exact archetype purity 0%
• No combo or tournament data to verify the engine

Critical choke points

• Mystical Space Typhoon (3 copies, about 25% to see one in an opening 5) gates the Radiant Typhoon triggers
• Hand-trap density is only about 52% to hold one going second

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 55, Extra 15, Side 0; OCG size rules pass; Three cards over their Semi-Limited copy limit (Illegal); Limited cards Droll & Lock Bird, Harpie's Feather Duster, Radiant Typhoon Chant and S:P Little Knight each run 1 copy (legal); Archetype purity 0% exact; Radiant Typhoon is the largest sub-archetype (23 copies)
• Observed: No recorded combo boards exist for this deck; Usage stat: Harpie's Feather Duster 62.5% inclusion, present
• Inferred: MST access ≈ 0.25 in opening 5; Hand-trap access ≈ 0.52 going second; Quick-Play chain and search as the main consistency engine; Interaction density high from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power (null); Matchup fit (D13)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo floor/median/ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link, so archetype meta-share and match record are absent No win-rate telemetry in YGOVN; going-first/second and matchup signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck title is null and archetype label Kaiju does not match any card in the list No Side Deck, so best-of-3 adaptability cannot be evaluated
