Millennium Deck #772107 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 37/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Ritual Summon Reptile boss monsters (Ame no Murakumo no Mitsurugi, Futsu no Mitama no Mitsurugi) through Mitsurugi Ritual and Mitsurugi Mirror, then press with their ATK and negation text; Extra Deck Link and Xyz boards that generate negation and removal
• Turn 1 (going first): Search a Mitsurugi Ritual Spell and a Ritual monster with Ragged Records of Rites or Pre-Preparation of Rites, Ritual Summon a boss, and protect it with Infinite Impermanence or Ash Blossom where the list allows
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Ash Blossom, Maxx C and PSY-Framegear Gamma to break the opponent's first engine, then rebuild through Mitsurugi searchers in the GY
• Recovery: Mitsurugi searchers (Aramasa, Saji, Kusanagi, Prayers) and Mitsurugi Ritual recursion from the GY rebuild a Ritual monster after a single disruption
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no Side Deck (Side Deck size 0) and no post-side data

Why it scores here

This list is Illegal in OCG: three Forbidden cards (Ame no Habakiri no Mitsurugi x3, Charmer Quartet in Bloom, D/D/D Wave High King Caesar) make it unplayable as built, so the score is a capped structural estimate that is not a normal Final Contextual score. Structurally the Mitsurugi Ritual engine is reasonably redundant: 18 searcher-text cards and Ragged Records of Rites support about 96% searcher access in the opening hand, which lifts resource and brick scores. The starter itself is thin, with about 34% for at least one Mitsurugi Ritual Spell in a 5-card opening hand, so the engine's consistency is held back. Interaction density (10 negation texts, 10 removal texts, 7 hand traps) earns the endboard and going-second scores, but no recorded boards exist, so the ceiling and median are text-only inferences. The score comes from consistency, interaction and resource structure on the system, not from the archetype's popularity or from averaging card scores; the 55-card off-archetype spread (Mitsurugi, Fiendsmith, Bystial, PSY-Frame, Charmer and others) is treated as a coherence cost.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary, Toolbox secondary, 100% Midrange weights applied (secondary used only for classification). Structural ≈ 49.5, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional); capped low because the list is Illegal

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.34 · 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

• 18 searcher-text cards give near-certain searcher access in the opening hand
• Layered interaction: 10 negation texts, 10 removal texts, 7 hand traps
• Ritual bosses reach 2400-3200 ATK and have negation text

Weaknesses

• Illegal in OCG: three Forbidden cards must be removed before the list is playable
• Starter density is low: about 34% for a Mitsurugi Ritual Spell in 5 cards
• Off-archetype spread (55 copies outside Millennium/Mitsurugi core) weakens engine coherence
• No Side Deck

Critical choke points

• Mitsurugi Ritual x3 is the only route to the Ritual bosses; the Forbidden Caesar and Habakiri slots cannot be run as built

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Three Forbidden cards run (Habakiri x3, Charmer Quartet, D/D/D Wave Caesar) with 0 legal copies; Ash Blossom 2 copies at Semi-Limited legal 2; Limited singles at 1 copy; Main 40, Extra 15, Side 0 within the OCG size rules
• Inferred: Starter probability ~0.34 at 3 copies; 18 searcher texts give ~96% searcher access; Negation and removal density gives layered interaction; Going-second interaction via hand traps
• Provisional: Meta power (no dated sample); Matchup fit and tournament reliability (no tournament link)
• 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 OCG going-first/second, matchup or brick rates Meta Power provisional without a dated metagame sample No Side Deck, so post-side plan cannot be evaluated
