Ryzeal Deck #772204 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 20/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Tempo
• 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: Xyz pressure from Ryzeal and Galaxy/Number boss monsters (Ryzeal Duo Drive, Galaxy Photon Dragon, Utopia, Vallon) once a Rank 4 Xyz is established; Gagaga/Dododo Xyz value via Gagagaga Girl and Onomatopaira-style searches
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Gogogo/Dododo/Gagaga searchers and Xyz starters, build a Rank 4 Xyz with Ext Ryzeal or Node Ryzeal, then protect it with hand traps (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Effect Veiler)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Droll and Maxx C to answer the opponent's search or summon, then recover through Mulcharmy and Nibiru in a longer game
• Recovery: Ryzeal Cross and Ryzeal Plugin recover banished or GY Ryzeal monsters, and Mulcharmy Fuwalos draws off opponent summons
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so no post-side plan exists in this list

Why it scores here

The deck's consistency is decent on paper: 15 searcher-text cards give about a 92% chance of at least one searcher in an opening 5, and the archetype core has about an 82% chance of at least one copy. Its ceiling and median cannot be measured because no boards were recorded, so combo conversion and floor are text-only inferences. Interaction is broad (11 hand-trap-tagged cards, about 88% chance of one going second) and it has a recovery route through Ryzeal Cross and Mulcharmy, but it has no side deck and the Extra Deck is weakened by three Forbidden cards. Popularity was not rewarded: the Ryzeal archetype is common, but exact-name purity is only 16.4%, and the score was not averaged from individual card scores. The Illegal status caps the Final Contextual Deck Power at 20, so this is a structural-only read.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 54, Going First ≈ 52, Going Second ≈ 56, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12); illegal_cap (-21). Final formula: Illegal cap: raw 0.80*54 + 0.20*50 = 53.2, minus 12 banlist modifier = 41.2, capped at 20 because the deck is Illegal (three Forbidden cards). Structural-only read; Meta Power provisional/null.

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

• Dense searcher text (15 cards) gives a high chance of finding a starter
• Broad hand-trap and negation package (11 cards) for going second
• Several Rank 4 boss options and a recovery route through Ryzeal Cross and Mulcharmy

Weaknesses

• Three Forbidden cards make the list illegal
• No side deck registered, so no post-side adaptability
• Low exact-name purity (16.4%) suggests a loose engine
• No recorded boards, so combo conversion cannot be measured

Critical choke points

• Every Xyz line depends on a Rank 4 Xyz being established first
• Ext Ryzeal, Node Ryzeal and Star Ryzeal are the only Rank 4 engines the extra deck can reach without the Forbidden cards

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Deck is Illegal: three Forbidden cards in the Extra Deck; Main 40 and Extra 15 meet OCG size rules; Ash Blossom at 2 copies is within its Semi-Limited limit; Exact-name purity is 16.4%; No side deck registered
• Inferred: Starter access about 0.82 to 0.92 from hypergeometric draws; Interaction breadth from hand-trap and negation text; Going-second hand-trap coverage about 0.88
• Provisional: Meta Power (null) because no dated metagame sample exists
• Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link, so archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry (going-first, going-second, matchup, brick rates) Meta Power is provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied No side deck registered
