Dominus Deck #772562 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 22/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Toolbox
• Secondary strategies: Stun, Tempo
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 7 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Large Link and Fusion boards from Snake-Eye / Diabellstar / Flamberge lines, closed out by Link Monsters in the Extra Deck; Mulcharmy and Azamina draw and pressure pieces, if their Forbidden or Limited copies are reduced to legal counts
• Turn 1 (going first): Open on a searcher (Snake-Eye Ash, Snake-Eye Oak or Snake-Eyes Poplar) to reach a Snake-Eye engine monster, while holding hand traps for the opponent's first activation
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold 2 or 3 hand traps (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Effect Veiler, Artifact Lancea) to answer the opponent's board, then rebuild through Mulcharmy draws and Snake-Eye searches
• Recovery: Use the 16 searcher-text cards and Mulcharmy draw effects to refill the hand after hand traps are spent; the Extra Deck link pool then supplies the board
• After siding: Not defined: the deck has 0 side cards, so there is no post-side plan in the list as submitted

Why it scores here

The list runs a dense interaction suite (14 hand traps, 15 negation-text cards, 13 removal-text cards) and 16 searcher-text cards, so it can usually find a functional first turn and answer an opposing board. Its engines are split across Snake-Eye, Mulcharmy, Sinful Spoils, Azamina and Dominus, and only 3 of 67 archetype-tagged copies are exact Dominus cards (4.3% exact-name purity), which drags down engine coherence and main-deck efficiency. The deck has no recorded boards, no guides and no tournament record, so the combo ceiling and median are text-only inference and the scores are not backed by measured output. The list is Illegal: 7 cards exceed their copy limits, and three are Forbidden in OCG, so it is capped at 22 and the structural figure (about 53, or 39 after modifiers) is theoretical only. Popularity and archetype usage were not used to raise the score, and card scores were not averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox. Structural ≈ 52.7, Going First ≈ 48, Going Second ≈ 60, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 46. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); engine conflicts (-4). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability = 51.4, then modifiers (-12) give 39.4 theoretical; the Illegal legality cap sets the reported final score to 22

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.83 · 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 hand-trap and negation suite (14 hand traps, 15 negation-text cards) for the opponent's first activation
• Searcher density (16 cards) supports consistent starts and recovery
• Link and Fusion Extra Deck covers several boards (13 Links, 2 Fusions)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: 7 cards over copy limit, 3 of them Forbidden
• Engines split across Snake-Eye, Mulcharmy, Sinful Spoils, Azamina and Dominus
• Zero side deck, so no best-of-3 adaptation
• No recorded boards, guides or tournament data to confirm the plan works

Critical choke points

• Snake-Eye Ash (2 copies, 1 legal) is a central searcher and starter
• Ash Blossom and Dominus Impulse (3 copies each, 2 legal) are the main interaction and must be cut to legal counts
• Forbidden Azamina Ilia Silvia, Called by the Grave and Triple Tactics Talent cannot be run in OCG

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: 55 Main / 15 Extra / 0 Side, within the OCG size rules; 7 copy-limit violations and 3 Forbidden cards; Card text and banlist status from the evidence pack; Composition counts: 14 hand traps, 16 searcher-text, 13 removal-text, 15 negation-text, 67 off-archetype copies
• Inferred: Opening-hand consistency from the hypergeometric draw table; Toolbox primary strategy and going-second hand-trap plan; Interaction quality ratings (D7) from card text
• Provisional: Meta and format fit (D13), since no dated metagame sample exists; Combo floor and median (D4), since no boards were supplied
• Data gaps: No combos supplied; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry in YGOVN (going-first/second, matchup, brick and starter rates) Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample No guides for the archetype Deck has no side deck, so D12 has no performance data
