Magistus Deck #772599 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 34/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 53 / Extra 17 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 4 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion Summon large Invoked monsters (Hyperinvoked Aeon, Invoked Elysium, Invoked Oceanus) off an Aleister-based starter, then convert the board with boss-level ATK and removal text.; Link and recursion value from Endymion, Artemis and Aleister the Invoker of Madness, with Magistus and Mulcharmy draw engines for the grind.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Aleister the Reminiscent, Aiwass or Mulcharmy as a starter, search or Special Summon an Aleister, then Fusion Summon an Invoked boss through Invocation or Super Polymerization, protected by Ash Blossom and Droll & Lock Bird on the next response.
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Ghost Ogre and Evenly Matched to break the opponent's starter, then rebuild through Mulcharmy draws and Aleister searches.
• Recovery: Recover from a broken starter by searching a second Aleister via Crowley, Aiwass or Magical Meltdown, then re-enter the Fusion engine with Invoked Augoeides or Mixousia as the next material source.
• After siding: No Side Deck exists in the export, so no post-side plan can be evaluated; the list has no sideboard tools for hostile matchups.

Why it scores here

The score is capped low because the list is illegal: Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization are run at 3 copies against a limit of 2, and the Extra Deck holds 17 cards against an OCG maximum of 15. Structurally the deck is a Fusion-based Aleister and Invoked engine with a dense hand-trap and negation layer (11 hand traps, 10 negation-text cards), and the hypergeometric core-starter estimates are moderate (about 0.70 chance of at least one archetype-core card in the opening five). No combo boards were recorded, so the ceiling and median scores are text-only inferences with low confidence. Archetype popularity was not credited: the deck's exact-name purity is only 2.9%, and the engine relies on a mix of Invoked, Mulcharmy and Aleister cards, which the rubric treats as neutral rather than strong. The score was not produced by averaging card scores; it reflects the system's consistency, interaction density and going-second value, reduced by the legality cap and the absence of a Side Deck.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 46.7, Going First ≈ 42, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: illegal_list_cap (-8); no Side Deck (-2); no_recorded_combos (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) = 0.80*46.7 + 0.20*40 = 45.3, then -11 modifiers, then illegal-list cap, rounded to 34

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.26 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.3 (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 (11 hand traps, 10 negation-text cards) that stays live when going second
• Multiple Fusion boss options (Aeon, Elysium, Oceanus, Mechaba, De Anima) on a shared Aleister starter base
• Searcher text on 15 cards gives good starter access

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: two cards over copy limit and Extra Deck of 17 against a maximum of 15
• No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptation
• Low archetype purity (2.9% exact name) with Invoked, Mulcharmy and generic cards diluting the engine
• One unresolved passcode (86120751) counted as main, so the list cannot be fully verified

Critical choke points

• Starter Aleister or Aiwass in hand: archetype-core open chance ~0.70 in 5 cards
• Single Fusion Summon route through Invocation or Super Polymerization, which is an over-limit card

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization over copy limit (3 vs 2); Extra Deck of 17 exceeds the OCG maximum of 15; Main Deck of 53 is within the 40-60 range; Banlist status for the restricted cards (Droll, S:P Little Knight, Solemn, Terraforming Limited; Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization Semi-Limited)
• Inferred: Starter consistency from hypergeometric odds (about 0.26 per 3-copy card, about 0.70 archetype-core); Hand-trap interaction density and going-second value; Fusion boss closing potential from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power (null) and matchup fit, as no dated meta sample or tournament link exists
• Data gaps: no combos supplied - combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link - archetype meta-share and pilot match record absent 1 passcode (86120751) in the card list could not be resolved and was counted as Main no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN - going-first/second, matchup and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied no Side Deck data - post-side plan unevaluated no guides attached (guide data empty)
