P.U.N.K. Deck #772075 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 42/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 57 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra Deck boss monsters (Psychic End Punisher, P.U.N.K. JAM Dragon Drive, Ukiyoe-P.U.N.K. Amazing Dragon, Adamancipator Risen - Dragite, Gold Pride - Pin Baller) reached through P.U.N.K. Synchro, Fusion and Xyz chains (Inferred from card text); Gold Pride Link and Xyz pressure plus LP-gated recursion from the GY (Inferred from card text)
• Turn 1 (going first): Open with a P.U.N.K. Tuner or Noh-P.U.N.K. monster, use Noh-P.U.N.K. Ze Amin or Foxy Tune to add or summon a second P.U.N.K. body, then move to a Synchro or Fusion boss (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Droll and Lock Bird, Ghost Ogre or Solemn to stop the opponent starter, then rebuild through P.U.N.K. monsters from the GY and the Extra Deck (Inferred)
• Recovery: Recover through P.U.N.K. JAM Extreme Session and GY revival effects, and Mulcharmy draws when the field is empty (Inferred from card text)
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan (Provisional)

Why it scores here

The deck has a real engine: 22 P.U.N.K. monsters and spells give a 92% chance (Inferred, hypergeometric over the 57-card main) of at least one archetype card in a 5-card opening hand, so the starter is usually present. Conversion is plausible through Extra Deck bosses of 2700 to 3500 ATK, but no recorded boards exist, so ceiling and median are text-only inferences and are kept modest. Interaction is dense (Ash Blossom, Solemn Strike, Solemn Judgment, Evenly Matched, Lightning Storm, Forbidden Droplet, Droll and Lock Bird, Ghost Ogre), which supports going-second play. The score is pulled down by the deck being Illegal (Ash Blossom run 3 copies against a limit of 2), by a split engine (Gold Pride, Mulcharmy and Solemn cards are about 30 percent of the main, with exact-name purity at 30.6 percent), by the absence of a Side Deck, and by no metagame or tournament evidence. Popularity was not credited, and no card scores were averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 56, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 60, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 48. Modifiers: Banlist exposure (Ash Blossom over copy limit, Solemn Judgment and Droll Limited) (-4); No Side Deck (-4); Engine conflicts across sub-archetypes (-4). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional); Illegal status, so the result is a structural-only estimate: 0.80*55.6 + 0.20*48 = 54.1, then -12 modifiers = 42

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.92 · 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

• 22 archetype core copies give a 92 percent chance of an opening starter (Inferred)
• Dense interaction across hand traps and Solemn/Lightning Storm (Inferred)
• Extra Deck bosses at 2700 to 3500 ATK (Verified stats)

Weaknesses

• Illegal: Ash Blossom at 3 copies against a limit of 2
• Split engine: Gold Pride, Mulcharmy and Solemn take up much of the main (Verified composition)
• No Side Deck (Verified)
• No combo or tournament evidence to confirm the ceiling (Provisional)

Critical choke points

• Legality: the deck must drop one Ash Blossom before it can be played in OCG
• Reliance on the P.U.N.K. core for the opening starter: off-archetype cards do not start the engine

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: Ash Blossom run 3 vs limit 2; Main 57, Extra 15, Side 0 (size legal); Card text and stats for each listed card; Archetype purity 30.6 percent
• Observed: Usage: P.U.N.K. core cards at 80 to 100 percent inclusion in the archetype stats
• Inferred: 92 percent starter access for the archetype core (hypergeometric); Interaction density quality; Going-second hand trap value
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated sample); Matchup fit and tournament reliability
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry for this deck No Side Deck, so post-side behaviour cannot be evaluated Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample
