Dark World Deck #772281 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 56/100 (±6 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fiend recursion and discard-to-GY engine producing 2300-3200 ATK boards (Reign-Beaux Overking, Grapha Dragon Overlord, Goldd, Sillva) backed by Link monsters; Link and Fusion closing from the Extra Deck (Grapha Dragon Overlord, Underworld Goddess, Mekk-Knight Crusadia Avramax)
• Turn 1 (going first): Dark Corridor or Genta to search a Dark World monster, then discard Snoww or Genta to GY to add a further Dark World card and set up a Fiend engine
• Turn 2 (going second): Discard-based Special Summons from the GY (Snoww, Sillva, Goldd, Grapha) to rebuild the board after the opponent's first turn, with Dark World Punishment as the only summon-stopping card
• Recovery: GY-effect monsters (Ceruli, Broww, Parl, Beiige, Sillva) return to the field from the GY after a board wipe, and Dark World Accession or Charge Into a Dark World re-summon Fiends
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan in the evidence; the list cannot adapt between games

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a functional Dark World plan: 14 searcher-text cards and 15 archetype-core copies give an inferred 0.92 chance of at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand, with Dark Corridor, Genta and Snoww each running three copies. Its strongest feature is redundancy after interruption, because nine different monsters can use their GY effect to recover or summon, so no single disruption ends the line. Interaction is limited: there are no hand traps or floodgates, and the negation and removal come from one 3-copy trap plus conditional GY effects, which weakens going-second play. Closing power is solid on paper with 3000-3200 ATK Extra Deck and Main Deck threats, but no combo boards were recorded, so the ceiling and floor are text-only inferences. The score comes from the deck as a system: consistency, recovery and interaction, with no contribution from popularity and no averaging of card scores; the empty side deck is a clear penalty.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary, Toolbox secondary, no weight shift applied. Structural ≈ 61, Going First ≈ 62, Going Second ≈ 55, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 55. Modifiers: No side deck (-3); Unreachable Extra Deck slots (-2); Engine compactness (2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional; no dated metagame sample)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.92 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.08 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• 14 searcher-text cards and 3-copy starters give high opening access (Inferred, 0.92 at least one core card in hand 5)
• Nine GY-effect outlets provide several independent recovery routes after interruption
• Compact 22-distinct Main Deck with one coherent Dark World engine
• Strong 3000+ ATK Extra Deck closers, including Grapha Dragon Overlord x3

Weaknesses

• No side deck, so no post-side plan across best-of-3 rounds
• No hand traps or floodgates, leaving weak going-second interaction
• Clorless x2 cannot be Fusion Summoned without Reign-Beaux, Overlord of Dark World
• No combo boards recorded, so ceiling and floor cannot be verified

Critical choke points

• Fiend monsters in hand are needed for discard costs; a hand with no Fiends stalls the GY engine
• Dark World Punishment is the only summon-stopping card (3 copies)
• Going-second boards depend on GY effects, not on hand interaction

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal OCG list: 40 Main, 15 Extra, 0 Side, all copy limits respected; Card text and stats for the 40 Main and 15 Extra cards from the evidence; Three Limited single-copy cards: Card Destruction, Foolish Burial, Monster Reborn
• Inferred: P(at least one core card in a 5-card hand) ≈ 0.92; Consistency and brick estimates from hypergeometric draw odds; Recovery and interaction reads from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit (no tournament context)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent No win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchups or brick rates usage statistics in this deck flags Extra Deck cards (Underworld Goddess, Muckraker, Knightmare Phoenix, Grapha Dragon Overlord) as absent even though they appear in cards; treated as an evidence defect, not a gap in the deck Side deck empty, so post-side behaviour cannot be scored from data Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
