Gunkan Deck #772477 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 48/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 47 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Xyz Summon Gunkan Xyz monsters (Shirauo-class Carrier, Ikura-class Dreadnought, Uni-class Super-Dreadnought) from Shari, Shari Red, Uni, Ikura and Shirauo, then attack for 2200 to 2900; Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS - Sky Thunder and the Numeron Xyz line as a second board-presence route, both dependent on Numeron support cards
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a 3-copy Gunkan starter (Shari, Uni, Ikura, Shari Red, Shirauo or Unexpected Dai), search or summon a second Gunkan monster, and Xyz Summon a Gunkan Xyz from the Extra Deck; hold Ash Blossom or Red Reboot for interaction
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Ash Blossom, Maxx C, Nibiru or Dominus Impulse to disrupt the opponent's board, then rebuild with a Gunkan Xyz Summon; Threatening Roar and Scapegoat provide defensive stalling
• Recovery: Gunkan Suship Daily Special and Unexpected Dai search Gunkan monsters back into hand; Gunkan Suship Shari Red and Shirauo can be re-Special Summoned from hand to rebuild materials
• After siding: No side deck is recorded in the export; no post-side plan can be assessed

Why it scores here

The deck's engine is accessible: three-copy Gunkan starters and the Shari core give roughly a 0.29 chance of any single specific starter in a 5-card opening hand, and the archetype core group is present in most hands (Inferred). Its Xyz finishers (Carrier, Dreadnought, Super-Dreadnought) provide a credible ceiling and closing power, and the hand traps (Ash Blossom, Red Reboot, Maxx C, Nibiru, Dominus Impulse) give it real interaction. The score is held down by brick and purity risk: only 14 of 47 main slots are exact Gunkan names, 17 of 29 distinct main cards are singletons, and off-theme cards (Exodia, Mulcharmy, Wicked God, Numeron Network, Dominus) compete for the same slots. Median output and going-second board-breaking are unmeasured because no recorded boards exist, and the empty side deck removes any post-side plan. Popularity of the archetype and usage stats were not added to the score; the result comes from consistency, interaction and ceiling on the system, not from averaging card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 56, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 47. Modifiers: engine conflicts (-4); empty side deck (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional); Structural 55.7 → 0.80*55.7 + 0.20*47 = 53.96, then modifiers −6 → 48

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.29 · 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

• Three-copy Gunkan starters and an Xyz finisher line that is accessible on turn 1 or 2
• Five hand traps and nine negation-text cards give layered interaction
• Strong closing bodies: Super-Dreadnought at 2900 ATK and Divine Arsenal at 3000 ATK

Weaknesses

• Only 14 of 47 main slots are exact Gunkan names; 33 off-archetype copies create brick and dead-draw risk
• No side deck, so no post-side adaptability
• No recorded boards, so median output and going-second performance are unmeasured

Critical choke points

• Gunkan Suship Shari is the required starter for Shari Red, Carrier and Dreadnought summons; losing access to it cuts off the Xyz line
• Numeron Calling and Numeron Network depend on Numeron Xyz in the Extra Deck, which many hands will not have

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal in OCG: 47 main, 15 extra, copy limits respected; Banlist: Maxx C, Red Reboot and There Can Be Only One at 1 copy (Limited); Ash Blossom at 2 (Semi-Limited); Exact archetype purity 46.8%; 17 singletons; 33 off-archetype copies; Usage stats: 9 of 25 core cards present (36%)
• Inferred: P(≥1 Shari in 5-card hand) ≈ 0.29; archetype core group ≈ 0.97; Ceiling from Xyz finisher text; median output is unmeasured; Interaction quality from negation and removal text
• Provisional: Meta Power is null; no dated metagame sample; Matchup fit (D13) lacks tournament data
• 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 side deck recorded — post-side plan cannot be evaluated no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN — going-first/second and matchup signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
