Legality

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

Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Elfnote and Power Patron Link/Synchro boards that push pressure through Elfnote Lucina, Tinia, Regina, June Pride-style Synchro boards (Inferred from card text; June Pride is not in this list); Medius and Ars Magna recursion into Power Patron Link monsters (Inferred)
  • Turn 1 (going first): Open a Level 1 or Level 3 starter (Power Patron, Effect Veiler, Ghost Ogre) and search an Elfnote or Ars Magna engine piece (Inferred)
  • Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Maxx C, Effect Veiler, Infinite Impermanence and Solemn cards to slow the opponent's summons and set up a Link board (Inferred)
  • Recovery: Ars Magna and Medius recursion from GY and banishment, plus Elfnotes: Welcome Home reuse of Elfnote monsters (Inferred)
  • After siding: Not applicable: the deck has no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan.

Why it scores here

The deck is Illegal in OCG: three Forbidden cards (F.A. Dawn Dragster, Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon, Baronne de Fleur) are run, and the deck has no Side Deck, so the structural score is a theoretical read only. Its engine density is moderate. The Elfnote core is only 14 of 55 main-deck copies (20% exact-name purity), with Ars Magna and Power Patron sub-archetypes supplying much of the rest. Interaction is broad: 15 hand traps and 17 negation-text cards give good end-board coverage. No recorded boards exist, so the ceiling and median are text-only inference, and no points come from the archetype's popularity (64% core presence) or from averaging card scores. The score is capped down because the list cannot be played as built.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 58 P(≥1 starter in 5-card hand) ≈ 0.25 per copy-3 starter; archetype core group P(≥1 in hand) ≈ 0.94 (Inferred from hypergeometric draws)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 45 16 singleton copies and 0 Side Deck; 6 Normal Summon-conflicting starters mixed with hand traps; brick rate not measured (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 40 No parseable boards; ceiling reads from Power Patron and Ars Magna card text only (Inferred)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 35 No combo median available; floor is text-only (Inferred)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 50 Ash Blossom, Maxx C and Effect Veiler give hand-based interaction; recursion via Ars Magna and Medius from GY (Inferred from text)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 45 Recursion through Elfnote Welcome Home, Medius and Ars Magna; 21 searcher-text cards (Inferred from card text)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 60 15 hand traps, 17 negation-text cards, Solemn Judgment and Maxx C layering (Inferred from text; flags are verified)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 50 Going-second split not available; Ash, Maxx C and Infernoble-free boards give partial board-breaking (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 55 Ekhajar and Elfnote Lucina/Tinia give 2400-2500 ATK bodies; Vidolium 5000 ATK pendulum (Verified stats, Inferred closing)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 60 55 main with 31 distinct cards, 16 singletons, 9 triples; purity 20% lowers coherence (Verified composition)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 55 15 Extra Deck slots used with 9 Synchro, 5 Link, 1 Fusion; three Forbidden Extra cards inflate counts (Verified composition)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 15 No Side Deck at all, so no post-side adaptability (Verified: side_count 0)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 40 No tournament link, no dated meta sample; Meta Power provisional (Provisional)
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 50 Multi-step engine with Ars Magna and Power Patron tribute chains; high decision count (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary, Toolbox secondary, disclosed; weights taken from the Midrange profile. Structural ≈ 48, Going First ≈ 45, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12). Final formula: 0.80*Structural(48) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(35) + ContextModifiers(-12) = 33; Meta provisional; Illegal legality caps the result to theoretical/structural-only

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

  • Broad hand-trap and negation coverage (15 hand traps, 17 negation-text cards)
  • Archetype core present at high inclusion (Elfnote Power Patron, Regina, Fortuna, Welcome Home)
  • Compact-enough main deck (55 cards) with no slot pressure
  • Strong Extra Deck boards: Synchro and Link Power Patron bodies

Weaknesses

  • Illegal as built: three Forbidden cards (Baronne de Fleur, Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon, F.A. Dawn Dragster)
  • No Side Deck: zero post-side plan
  • Low exact-name archetype purity (20%); many off-archetype cards dilute the engine
  • No recorded boards, so ceiling and floor are unmeasured

Critical choke points

  • Any Limited or Forbidden card removed from the Extra Deck disrupts the Synchro/Link board
  • Single-copy Elfnote Lucina, Tinia and Droll & Lock Bird give no redundancy
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 F.A. Dawn Dragster, Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon, Baronne de Fleur Legal Synchro or Link replacements (e.g. Elfnote June Pride or Accel Synchro Stardust Dragon are already listed as core elsewhere; verify legality first) The deck cannot be played as built; legality is a precondition for any score
2 Off-archetype singletons (e.g. Infinite Impermanence, Hey Space Trunade, Nibiru) Additional Elfnote or Power Patron engine pieces Raises exact-name purity from 20% toward the archetype core
3 None A Side Deck (up to 15 cards) Side Deck count is 0, so post-side adaptability is missing

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Illegal status: three Forbidden cards in the Main/Extra list; Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 against OCG size rules; Copy histogram 16/6/9 and 12 Limited/Semi-Limited cards at legal copy limits; Archetype purity 20% (14/70 copies exact-name)
  • Inferred: Starter access ~0.25 per copy-3 starter in opener (hypergeometric); Hand-trap and negation coverage on end-board; Going-first and going-second plans from card text
  • Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit (no tournament link)
  • Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link — archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN — brick/starter/OTK rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck is Illegal: three Forbidden cards plus no Side Deck
