Atlantean Deck #772406 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Atlantis/Umi field-driven board of Sea Serpent and WATER monsters, closing with Poseidra and Abysstrite-family Xyz/Synchro beats; Daedalus and Abyss- Link/Xyz boards, with Neo-Daedalus Rage (Extra Deck) as a Link 4 closer
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Penguin/Atlantean starter (First Penguin, Neptabyss, Fish Sonar, Dragoons, Warchief) and search toward Atlantis, City of the Sea Dragon, then build a Link or Synchro board; Forbidden Barrier Statue cannot be legally run
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Ash Blossom, Maxx C, Droll and Dominus Impulse to disrupt the opponent's first board, then rebuild through GY recursion from Dragoons and Heavy Infantry
• Recovery: Recover from the GY through Monster Arms of Atlantis, Warchief and Dragoons effects and use Pot of Prosperity or Fish Sonar to rebuild the hand
• After siding: None: the deck runs no side deck, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

This list is Illegal: it runs Barrier Statue of the Torrent and Bahamut Shark, both Forbidden, so it receives a capped theoretical score rather than a normal Final Contextual score. Structurally, the Atlantean core (Neptabyss, First Penguin, Fish Sonar, Dragoons, Warchief) reaches at least one starter in the opening 5 cards about 98% of the time for the archetype core group (Inferred hypergeometric estimate). Its ceiling is plausible through Atlantis, City of the Sea Dragon and Umi-linked recursion, but no recorded boards exist, so combo conversion and median output are text-only inferences. Interaction is decent (Ash Blossom, Maxx C, Droll, Dominus Impulse, Daedalus Maelstrom), and the Extra Deck supplies Link and Xyz closers. The score comes from consistency, interaction and closing power on the system, not from Atlantean being a popular archetype and not from averaging the card scores; the deck has no side deck and no tournament or meta data, which keeps the total low.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 52, Going Second ≈ 48, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); no post-side plan (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional), then capped low because the deck is Illegal (≈50 before cap and modifiers)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.98 · 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

• Archetype core is dense: P(at least one core card in 5 cards) ≈ 0.98
• Layered interaction: four hand traps, Dominus Impulse, Daedalus Maelstrom and removal text
• Extra Deck covers Link, Xyz and Synchro closers

Weaknesses

• Illegal: Barrier Statue of the Torrent and Bahamut Shark are Forbidden
• No Side Deck; no post-side plan
• Low archetype purity (16%) across Atlantis, Daedalus, Abyss-, Penguin and other sub-archetypes

Critical choke points

• Atlantis, City of the Sea Dragon (1 copy) gates much of the Umi and Daedalus payoff
• Single copies of key Extra Deck closers (Abysstrite, Poseidra Abyss not run)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: Barrier Statue of the Torrent and Bahamut Shark are Forbidden; Main 40 and Extra 15 are within the OCG size rules; Card stats and text for the 40 Main and 15 Extra cards
• Inferred: Starter access ≈ 0.98 for the core group in the opening 5 cards (hypergeometric); Interaction density from negation, removal and hand-trap text; Going-second disruption from Ash Blossom, Maxx C, Droll and Dominus Impulse
• Provisional: Meta Power (null) and Tournament Reliability context, with no dated meta sample; Matchup fit
• Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link — archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN (going-first/second, matchup, game-level, brick/starter/OTK rates) — those signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied deck title is null, so the name is unknown
