Dogmatika Deck #772137 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±5 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 57 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Large ATK boss monsters (Black Chaos, Black Luster Soldier, Chaos Angel, Bucephalus II) after a searcher-driven starter reaches the field; Ritual and Dogmatika follow-up through Light and Darkness Ritual and Dogmatika Maximus
• Turn 1 (going first): Search a starter with Dogmatika Ecclesia or Incredible Ecclesia, then bridge into a Synchro or Ritual boss while holding Ash Blossom, Solemn Warning or Droll & Lock Bird
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Maxx C) to interrupt the opponent's first board, then a Ritual or Synchro boss
• Recovery: Mulcharmy Fuwalos and Purulia draw on opponent summons, and Ragged Records and Mind Shuffle recover searchers from the GY
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs no Side Deck (0 cards), so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

This list is Illegal because it runs one copy of the Forbidden Albion the Branded Dragon, so it receives a structural-only score capped at 30 rather than a normal final score. Its searcher density (16 searcher-text cards, about 82% chance of at least one in a 5-card opening hand) gives it a reasonable chance of finding a starter, and the hand traps (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Maxx C) and four negation texts give it some interaction. Its ceiling comes from high-ATK bosses such as Black Chaos, Black Luster Soldier and Chaos Angel, but the list is spread across 34 distinct Main Deck cards with 70 off-archetype copies, so it has weak engine coherence and a high brick risk. No recorded boards exist, so conversion and median output are text-only inferences, and the deck has no Side Deck. The score was built from consistency, interaction and the system as a whole, not from averaging card scores or from Dogmatika's popularity.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox. Structural ≈ 48, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 45, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); no post-side plan (-4). Final formula: No reliable metagame, so Meta is provisional: 0.80*Structural(48) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(40) = 46.4; modifiers -12 gives 34.4; Illegal cap sets the final to 30 (theoretical/structural-only, not a normal final score)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.82 · 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

• 16 searcher-text cards give a high chance of finding a starter
• Layered interaction: 4 hand traps plus Solemn Warning, Dimensional Barrier and Appointer
• High-ATK boss monsters (Black Chaos, Black Luster Soldier, Chaos Angel, Bucephalus II)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Forbidden Albion the Branded Dragon is run as 1 copy
• Low engine coherence: only 2.8% exact Dogmatika name purity, 70 off-archetype copies
• No Side Deck and no post-side plan
• No combo data, so conversion and median output are unmeasured

Critical choke points

• Albion the Branded Dragon (Forbidden) is in the Extra Deck, so the list cannot be played legally until it is removed
• Limited and Semi-Limited copies (Maxx C, Droll, Dimensional Barrier, Ash Blossom, Solemn Warning) must stay within their caps

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Albion the Branded Dragon is Forbidden and run at 1 copy, making the list Illegal; Dogmatika exact-name purity is 2.8% (70 off-archetype copies); No Side Deck; no tournament link; no recorded combos; Black Chaos 3000, Black Luster Soldier 3000, Chaos Angel 3500, Bucephalus II 3500 ATK
• Observed: Usage statistics: Droll & Lock Bird and Mulcharmy Fuwalos are in the archetype core (66.98% and 54.72% inclusion)
• Inferred: Starter access ~0.82 from the searcher-text group; core-archetype access ~0.38; Brick risk is high from off-archetype single-copy cards; Interaction quality from negation and removal text; Going-first/going-second splits are text-derived estimates
• Provisional: Meta Power (null) and matchup fit (D13) need a dated metagame sample
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor/median/ceiling are text-only inferences No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry: going-first/second, matchup and brick/starter rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied No Side Deck: post-side plan unevaluable
