Odd-Eyes Deck #772325 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · 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. 4 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Pendulum-based boss Extra Deck monsters (Supreme King Z-ARC 4000 ATK, Odd-Eyes Absolute Dragon, Odd-Eyes Vortex Dragon, Dark Magician of Destruction) reached through Pendulum and Magician searches; Link and Xyz pressure (Perfectron Hydradrive Dragon, Exceed the Pendulum, Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon) and Forbidden-card boss lines, which are unavailable as printed
• Turn 1 (going first): Pendulum-set Supreme King Gate / Astrograph / Horoscope Sorcerer from hand, using Wings of Light and Supreme King Dragon Darkwurm searches to reach a Pendulum Summon into an Extra Deck boss
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the 6-card hand with hand traps (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Maxx C, Droll & Lock Bird) to answer the opponent's first line, then rebuild through Pendulum Summons
• Recovery: Search again with Performapal Skullcrobat Joker, Dragon Shrine and Pendulum Evolution, and re-Pendulum-Summon from the Extra Deck
• After siding: Not evaluable: the side deck is empty, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck opens a Pendulum-based engine with reasonable reliability: at least one searcher is in hand on 98.7% of opening hands (Inferred, hypergeometric), and the 11-copy archetype-core group is present in 82% of 5-card hands. Its interaction density is high (6 hand traps, 13 negation-text cards, 16 removal-text cards), and it has a credible going-second hand-trap plan, with at least one hand trap in 65% of 6-card hands. Its closing power comes from Supreme King Z-ARC and several 2500-2800 ATK Extra Deck bosses. The score is held down by an incoherent build (only 3.6% exact-archetype purity, 53 off-archetype copies across Magician, Red-Eyes, Phantom Knights, Metalfoes and other sub-archetypes), an empty side deck, and no combo or tournament evidence. It is capped low because the list is illegal: three Astrograph Sorcerer over the Limited limit, plus Forbidden Borreload Savage Dragon and Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon. The score was not derived by averaging card scores, and popularity did not earn points.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 53.4, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12); illegal-list cap (-8). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability = 50.7; modifiers -12 gives 38.7; Illegal-list cap applied, final 30 (theoretical/structural only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.99 · 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

• Searcher density: at least one searcher in 98.7% of opening hands (Inferred)
• Layered interaction: 6 hand traps, 13 negation-text cards, 16 removal-text cards
• Strong Extra Deck ceiling: Supreme King Z-ARC 4000 ATK and 2500-2800 ATK bosses
• Credible going-second hand-trap plan

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: three Astrograph Sorcerer over the Limited limit, and two Forbidden cards
• Very low archetype purity (3.6%); 53 off-archetype copies make the engine incoherent
• No side deck, so no post-side plan
• No combo, tournament or win-rate evidence to confirm any line works

Critical choke points

• Pendulum Zone access for the Pendulum Summon route, which depends on Pendulum Monsters with compatible scales
• Extra Deck boss access via a limited set of Pendulum and Magician searches
• The Forbidden Borreload Savage Dragon and Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon cannot be played as printed

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: 3x Astrograph Sorcerer over the Limited limit; Borreload Savage Dragon and Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon are Forbidden; Main 40 and Extra 15 are within the OCG size rules; side 0 is within 0-15; Card stats and text from the export (e.g. Z-ARC 4000 ATK, Absolute Dragon 2800 ATK); Composition counts: 40 main, 20 distinct, 14 distinct Extra, 3.6% exact-archetype purity
• Inferred: Opening-hand probabilities (0.987 searcher, 0.82 core, 0.65 hand trap on going second); Interaction breadth read from card text; Going-first and going-second plans read from card text; Coherence penalty from off-archetype composition
• Provisional: Meta Power (null, no dated metagame sample); D13 matchup and format fit
• Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry: going-first/second, matchup and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample Side deck is empty, so there is no post-side evidence Usage-stat inconsistency: core_cards marks Odd-Eyes Vortex Dragon, Beyond the Pendulum, Odd-Eyes Absolute Dragon and Exceed the Pendulum as in_this_deck=false, but the card list contains them; core_present_pct (30.8) is therefore unreliable and was not used Deck title is null
