Invoked Deck #772547 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±12 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 60 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion Summon Shaddoll/Invoked boss monsters (El Shaddoll Shekhinaga, Invoked Elysium, Invoked Mechaba, El Shaddoll Apkallone) that out-stat the field and negate responses; Link and Shaddoll recursion value through Naelshaddoll Ariel, Qadshaddoll Keios and Shaddoll Dragon
• Turn 1 (going first): Search a Shaddoll starter (Shaddoll Hedgehog, Shaddoll Fusion, Magical Meltdown) with Shaddoll Falco/Reeshaddoll Wendi-style flip effects, then Fusion Summon a boss from the Extra Deck; the opening hand must contain a searcher or Fusion spell, roughly 0.80 at least one searcher in 5 cards (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Rely on Shaddoll Squamata and Shaddoll Dragon flip removal and Shaddoll Core as a fusion substitute; one hand trap (PSY-Framegear Gamma) is the only protection, so going-second conversion is weak (Inferred)
• Recovery: Shaddoll GY effects (Resh Shaddoll Incarnation, Qadshaddoll Keios, Naelshaddoll Ariel, Shaddoll Construct) reload from the GY and banish; recovery depends on Fusion spells surviving
• After siding: Not applicable: the list has no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The Shaddoll-Fusion core (Shaddoll Fusion, El Shaddoll Fusion, Shaddoll Hedgehog, Shaddoll Falco and Squamata) gives the deck real search density, with about 80% at least one searcher in an opening 5 (Inferred). The Extra Deck (12 Fusion, 3 Link) supplies late-game boss monsters with negation text, which is what earns the interaction and closing points. The 60-card main is split across five archetype families (Shaddoll 40 copies, Invoked 12, Mekk-Knight, Performage, Greed) with only about 16% exact-name purity, so engine coherence and brick management score low. The deck is Illegal (3 copies of Allure of Darkness against an OCG Limited limit of 1), so the structural score is capped and labelled theoretical; the final score also reflects the absence of combos, tournament data and a side deck. Popularity and archetype stats were not used to add points, and card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo 100%, Midrange as a secondary read only (not blended into weights). Structural ≈ 55, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 45, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); no side deck (-4). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability = 0.80*55 + 0.20*40 = 52; Illegal-deck cap applied (-12 modifier total, then clamped to 35 for an Illegal list)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.8 · 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 (16 cards) gives a high chance of a live starter
• Extra Deck bosses with negation text and high ATK
• Shaddoll GY recursion gives some redundancy

Weaknesses

• Illegal: 3 copies of Allure of Darkness against an OCG Limited limit of 1
• Five archetype families in one main deck; exact-name purity 16%
• No Side Deck
• One hand trap, weak going-second protection

Critical choke points

• The Shaddoll Fusion spells: most lines need one of the three Fusion spells in hand
• Allure of Darkness is a banned-to-one card, so the list cannot be played as built

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Allure of Darkness is over the OCG Limited copy limit (3 vs 1); Main 60 / Extra 15 / Side 0 sizes are within the OCG size rules; Extra Deck breakdown is 12 Fusion and 3 Link; Archetype purity is 16% exact-name; Shaddoll 40 copies
• Inferred: Starter access about 0.80 from searcher text; Brick rate estimated high from off-archetype cards; Interaction density from negation and removal text; Going-second weakness from one hand trap and no Side Deck
• Provisional: Meta Power is null; no dated metagame sample; Matchup and format fit scored at a neutral midpoint
• 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 2 passcode(s) in CardIDList could not be resolved to a card (counted as main) 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 no Side Deck present
