Azamina Deck #772581 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 53 / Extra 17 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion and Synchro Extra Deck boss monsters (Azamina, Saint Azamina, Diabellze, Snake-Eye Doomed Dragon) summoned through searchers and Azamina Fusion-summon spells, closing with ATK and direct damage.; Mulcharmy draw-based card advantage and Diabell synchro or fusion lines that rebuild the board after disruption.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a searcher or Fusion starter (Elzette, Silvy, Diabellstar, Azamina spells) to reach a Fusion or Synchro boss, holding hand traps for the opponent's first activation.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the six-card hand's hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Droll, Infinite Impermanence, Evenly Matched) to strip the opponent's first board, then rebuild with a searcher-led Fusion or Synchro line.
• Recovery: Recover from the Extra Deck with Fusion and Synchro reuse effects, plus Tales of the White Forest and Woes of the White Forest to re-add starters and summon again.
• After siding: Not evaluable: the list runs no Side Deck (Side Deck size 0), so there is no post-side plan.

Why it scores here

The list is illegal as built: three copies of The Fallen & The Virtuous and WANTED: Seeker of Sinful Spoils exceed their OCG limits, and the Extra Deck holds 17 cards against a cap of 15, so it gets no normal Final Contextual score and the 30 is a theoretical structural cap. Its strongest system read is the interaction layer: twelve hand traps and about 0.80 chance of at least one in a going-second six-card hand give it real disruption, and the Forbidden Crown and Diabell/Azamina boss package add board-control depth. Consistency is weak. Azamina exact-name purity is only 10%, with White Forest (15), generic (14), Mulcharmy (6), Forbidden (5), Diabell (4), Ecclesia and Eyes Restrict cards competing for the same slots, so the engines conflict rather than reinforce each other. The opening-hand estimates (about 0.83 for a searcher, 0.66 for the archetype core) are Inferred, and no combo data or tournament record supports a median or ceiling read. The score is not driven by Azamina being a popular archetype, and it is not an average of card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox. Structural ≈ 49, Going First ≈ 45, Going Second ≈ 55, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 38. Modifiers: Illegal list cap (-9); Engine conflicts (-4); Banlist exposure (-2); No side deck (-1). Final formula: No-meta formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers = 0.80*49 + 0.20*38 - 8 ≈ 39; Illegal cap applied (size and copy-limit violations), so the final is capped at 30 and labelled theoretical/structural-only. Meta Power provisional (null).

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

• Twelve hand traps and about 0.80 going-second hit rate for at least one give dense early interaction
• Fusion and Synchro boss package (Azamina, Saint Azamina, Diabellze, Snake-Eye Doomed Dragon) provides high ATK closing power
• Fifteen searcher-text cards support starter access

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: two copy-limit violations and a 17-card Extra Deck
• Low exact-archetype purity (10%) with several engines competing for the same slots
• No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptation
• No combo, tournament or win-rate data, so the floor and median are unmeasured

Critical choke points

• Azamina and Diabell starters: the archetype core is present in only about two-thirds of opening hands
• Hand-trap timing: most disruption requires a specific activation window and cannot be used proactively

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: The Fallen & The Virtuous 3 copies vs 2 allowed; WANTED 3 vs 1 allowed; Extra Deck 17 vs 15 maximum (Illegal); Exact-name archetype purity 10%; archetype spread across 14 sub-archetypes; Card text for the boss monsters and hand traps quoted in the evidence
• Inferred: Consistency estimates (≈0.83 searcher, ≈0.66 archetype core, ≈0.80 hand trap going second); Interaction density and resilience read from card text; Going-first and going-second power read
• Provisional: Matchup and format fit (no dated meta sample or tournament link); Meta Power (null)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link, so archetype meta-share and per-pilot records are absent No win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick and starter rates) Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample No Side Deck, so post-side performance cannot be assessed
