Predaplant Deck #772593 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 14 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 5 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Mitsurugi Ritual Monster beatdown and boss monsters (Ame no Murakumo no Mitsurugi, Ruler of the End of the World, Predaplant Triphyoverutum) supported by Fusion and Link extenders; Predaplant Dragostapelia and Triphyoverutum Fusion Summons backed by Super Polymerization
• Turn 1 (going first): Search a Ritual Spell or Reptile via Mitsurugi Prayers, Mitsurugi no Mikoto, or Pre-Preparation of Rites, then Ritual Summon through Mitsurugi Ritual or Mitsurugi Mirror
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Nibiru, and Dominus Impulse to slow the opponent's summons, then rebuild the board through the same Ritual route
• Recovery: Pot of Prosperity and the Mitsurugi searchers (Saji, Aramasa, Kusanagi, Wousu) refill the hand from the Deck, and Ragged Records of Rites recurs the Ritual route
• After siding: Not evaluable: the side deck is empty, so no post-side plan exists

Why it scores here

The deck can usually find a starter through its 20 searcher-text cards, with about a 91 percent chance of at least one searcher in the opening five cards, so the opening is accessible on paper (Inferred). Its 13 negation-text cards and 5 hand traps give it a broad interaction layer, which is the strongest part of the structural read. The Mitsurugi Ritual route is the main conversion path, but no recorded boards exist, so the ceiling and median are text-only inferences and are not measured. Popularity did not earn points: Predaplant usage data shows only 2 of 15 core cards present, and the main deck is mostly Mitsurugi, Mulcharmy and Greed cards, so engine coherence is weak. The deck is Illegal (five copy-limit violations), so the final score is capped at 30 and the evaluation is structural-only; card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange 0.8 / Toolbox 0.2 (structural weights shown are Midrange). Structural ≈ 51, Going First ≈ 47, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist_copy_limit_violation (-12); engine_conflict_archetype_purity (0); no Side Deck (0). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural(51) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) = 49.8; modifiers -12 gives 37.8; Illegal deck capped at 30 (structural-only, no normal Final score)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.25 · 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

• Strong searcher density (20 searcher-text cards) for finding a Ritual or Reptile starter
• Broad negation layer: 13 negation-text cards and 5 hand traps
• Extra Deck fully used with a flexible mix of Fusion, Link and Xyz options
• High-impact closing bodies at 2700 to 3000 ATK

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: five copy-limit violations
• Low archetype coherence: 2.9 percent exact Predaplant purity, with a Mitsurugi/Mulcharmy/Greed main deck under a Predaplant label
• Core Predaplant support is largely absent (2 of 15 usage-core cards present)
• No side deck, so no post-side adaptation
• Ritual route depends on several specific cards and tribute conditions

Critical choke points

• Mitsurugi Ritual Spell or a Reptile monster in hand for the Ritual route
• Single-copy Limited cards (Pot of Prosperity, Solemn Judgment, Harpie's Feather Duster, S:P Little Knight, Droll & Lock Bird) that cannot be drawn redundantly

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 55, Extra 14, Side 0: legal sizes for OCG; Five copy-limit violations against the OCG BanList; Card text and stats for all resolved cards; Archetype purity 2.9 percent and archetype_spread counts
• Inferred: Opening-hand probabilities (hypergeometric, Main Deck only); Interaction density from negation and removal text; Ritual route ceiling and pilot burden from card text; Going-first and going-second estimates
• Provisional: Meta Power is null: no dated metagame sample; Matchup and format fit (D13); Median combo output (no combos recorded)
• Data gaps: no combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent no win-rate telemetry: going-first, going-second, matchup and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck title is null
