Legality
Main 56 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 5 violation(s).
Identity & game plan
- Win condition: Extra Deck Fusion, Link and Synchro boards built on Dark Magician and Shining Sarcophagus engines (theoretical, illegal list); Dark Magician and Dark Magician Girl recursion and Spell-based Special Summons
- Turn 1 (going first): Search and open Shining Sarcophagus or Dark Magician engine pieces with Dark Magical Curtain, Primite Lordly Lode and Future Silence, then protect with hand traps and negations
- Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Dominus Impulse, Infinite Impermanence and Ghost Ogre to answer the opponent's first board, then go to Fusion or Link Summons
- Recovery: Recur Dark Magician and Dark Magician Girl from the GY through Magician's Rod, Soul Servant and Secrets of Dark Magic; banished or GY-based fusion routes are not verified
- After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no Side Deck (0 cards)
Why it scores here
The deck is Illegal in OCG: five Forbidden cards are run at one copy each, so the list is scored only as a theoretical, structural read and the final number is capped low. Its starter access is moderate: about 0.83 chance of at least one searcher-text card in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred), with 16 searcher-text cards and 9 hand traps providing redundancy, but the engine is spread across several sub-archetypes (Dark Magician, Prophecy, Dominus, Primite, Azamina, PSY-Frame, Branded) with only 2.8 percent exact-name Shining Sarcophagus purity. Interaction is the strongest area, with 14 negation-text cards and 21 removal-text cards, but there are no recorded boards, so conversion and floor/median output cannot be measured. The deck has no Side Deck, so post-side adaptability is effectively zero. Popularity and archetype share were not credited, and card scores were not averaged into the deck score.
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | Engine Accessibility & Consistency | 58 | P(at least one searcher-text card in 5-card hand) ≈ 0.83; 18 archetype-core copies with ~0.87 open chance; engine spread across sub-archetypes (Inferred) |
| D2 | Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management | 52 | 25 singletons and 14 cards at 2 to 3 copies, with 9 hand traps providing some flexibility; no brick data (Inferred) |
| D3 | Combo Conversion & Ceiling | 45 | No recorded boards, so ceiling is text-only inference from Dark Magician and Shining Sarcophagus card text (Inferred) |
| D4 | Combo Floor & Median Output | 40 | No combos evidence, so floor and median output cannot be measured; left at a low-moderate estimate (Inferred) |
| D5 | Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy | 55 | Multiple negation and hand-trap routes (Ash Blossom, Dominus Impulse, Infinite Impermanence, Ghost Ogre) plus recursion text give some redundancy (Inferred) |
| D6 | Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind | 50 | Recovery depends on GY recursion text (Magician's Rod, Soul Servant, Secrets of Dark Magic); no resource telemetry exists (Inferred) |
| D7 | End-Board & Interaction Quality | 60 | 14 negation-text and 21 removal-text cards across Traps and Quick-Play Spells; durability not measured (Inferred) |
| D8 | Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power | 55 | Going-second hand-trap coverage ≈ 0.67 for at least one of 9 hand traps in a 6-card hand (Inferred) |
| D9 | Offensive Pressure & Closing Power | 55 | Closing power rests on Fusion and Link bosses such as Master of Chaos and Azamina, but Forbidden copies prevent a legal board (Inferred) |
| D10 | Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility | 40 | 56 Main Deck cards across 39 distinct names with 69 off-archetype copies; compactness is weak (Verified count, Inferred consistency) |
| D11 | Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage | 50 | 9 Fusion, 5 Link and 1 Synchro in 15 Extra slots, with 5 Forbidden or Limited copies; coverage is broad but not legal (Verified count) |
| D12 | Side Deck Adaptability | 15 | No Side Deck (0 cards); side adaptability cannot be evaluated (Verified) |
| D13 | Matchup Coverage & Format Fit | 35 | No dated metagame sample or tournament link; Meta Power is Provisional (Provisional) |
| D14 | Pilotability & Error Tolerance | 30 | Several engine branches and multiple conditional activations per line raise decision complexity (Inferred) |
How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 50, Going First ≈ 46, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); engine conflicts (-4). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability = 46.8; modifiers total -12 gives 34.8; illegal-deck cap applied, final 25 (theoretical, structural-only)
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
- Broad interaction: 14 negation-text and 21 removal-text cards
- Redundant searchers (16 searcher-text cards) for the Shining Sarcophagus and Dark Magician engines
- Wide Extra Deck coverage across Fusion, Link and Synchro
Weaknesses
- Illegal list: five Forbidden cards run
- Engine spread across many sub-archetypes with low exact-name purity
- Overbuilt Main Deck (56 cards, 39 distinct names)
- No Side Deck
Critical choke points
- Shining Sarcophagus and Dark Magician engine pieces as the starter set
- Forbidden Fusion and Link bosses (Albion, Azamina Ilia Silvia, Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon, Charmer Quartet) occupying Extra slots
Recommended changes
| Priority | Remove | Add | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Magicians' Souls, Charmer Quartet in Bloom, Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon, Azamina Ilia Silvia, Albion the Branded Dragon | Legal replacements (none specified in evidence) | All five are Forbidden in OCG; the list cannot be legal while they are present |
| 2 | Off-archetype tech cards with no engine link | Side Deck (up to 15 cards) | A deck with 0 side cards has no post-side plan (D12) |
Evidence & confidence
- Verified: Deck is Illegal: five Forbidden cards run at one copy each; Main 56 and Extra 15 are within OCG size rules; Semi-Limited and Limited copy counts are within legal limits; Archetype purity 2.8 percent; 0 Side Deck cards
- Inferred: Starter access ≈ 0.83 at 5-card hand; Hand-trap coverage ≈ 0.67 at 6-card hand; Interaction density from text-role hints
- Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit
- Data gaps: No combos supplied: floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry for OCG in YGOVN Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck title is null
