Horus Deck #772156 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 34/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 47 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Unverified: no combo boards or guides are attached; the end-board bosses (Azamina, Moa Regina, Naturia Landoise, Golden Allure Queen, Adamancipator Risen - Dragite) are the likely closers from the card list alone (Inferred).; Fusion, Link and Synchro bosses from the Extra Deck once the Charmer, Spellbook or Allure Queen engines are live (Inferred).
• Turn 1 (going first): Open with Spellbook of Secrets, Spirit Charmers or Spellbook of the Grand Circle to search, then convert through Charmer and Possessed monsters into a Fusion or Link boss (Inferred from text).
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Nibiru, Droll & Lock Bird or Harpie's Feather Duster for the opponent's first starter, then rebuild with the 16 searcher effects (Inferred).
• Recovery: Recursion from Familiar-Possessed and Elzette-style effects in the GY and Possessed Destiny banish costs (Inferred from text).
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has 0 side cards, so there is no post-side plan.

Why it scores here

The list has real interaction density: three Ash Blossom copies (illegal as built), Infinite Impermanence, Nibiru, Solemn Judgment, Droll & Lock Bird and Harpie's Feather Duster give it several ways to answer a starter, and the going-second probability of at least one hand trap in six cards is about 0.78. The deck's engine is spread across Charmer, Spellbook, Allure Queen, Possessed, Magistus and White Forest sub-archetypes, with 62 off-exact-archetype copies and 0% exact-name purity, so consistency is weakened by the lack of a single engine. The Extra Deck offers strong end-board bosses, but no combo boards, guides or tournament data exist, so floor, median and ceiling are text-only estimates. The deck is Illegal as built (Ash Blossom over its copy limit) and has no side deck, so the score is capped low and reported as structural-only. Popularity and archetype label did not earn points, and card scores were not averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 48, Going First ≈ 42, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 38. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-8); coherence_and_side_gap (-4). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional); 46 before modifiers, then -12 for illegal-list cap, giving 34

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.89 · 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

• Ten hand traps and several interaction spells give strong going-second protection.
• Sixteen searcher effects make the opening hand likely to find a starter.
• Extra Deck has multiple high-ATK bosses across Link, Fusion and Synchro.

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring is at 3 copies against a legal limit of 2.
• The deck is labeled Horus but contains none of the Horus core cards.
• No side deck, so there is no post-side adaptability.
• Engine spread across many sub-archetypes with 0% exact-name purity.

Critical choke points

• Ash Blossom over-limit: the deck cannot be played legally until one copy is removed.
• Engine depends on Charmer or Spellbook sub-archetype cards that are not listed as core in usage statistics.

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main deck 47 cards, Extra deck 15 cards, no side cards.; Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring runs 3 copies against a legal limit of 2 (violation).; Card text and stats for all listed cards.; Droll & Lock Bird, Harpie's Feather Duster, S:P Little Knight and Solemn Judgment are Limited; Ash Blossom is Semi-Limited.
• Observed: Usage statistics list 6 archetype core cards and this deck contains 1 of them.
• Inferred: Starter and hand-trap probabilities from the hypergeometric table.; Going-first and going-second power estimates.; Strategy classification from card text and composition.
• Provisional: Matchup and format fit (D13).; Meta Power (null).
• Data gaps: Illegal list: Ash Blossom copies exceed the legal limit; the score is capped as structural-only. No combos supplied, so floor, median and ceiling are text-only. No tournament link; archetype meta-share and match record are absent. No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN. No side deck, so post-side plan cannot be evaluated. Data inconsistency: usage_statistics marks S:P Little Knight (29301450) as not in this deck, but it appears in the Extra Deck list with 1 copy. Deck title is null and the archetype label Horus does not match the card list. No guides attached for this archetype.
