Diabellstar Deck #772702 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±15 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 56 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 4 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Extra Deck boss monsters (Black Chaos, Magician of Dark Chaos, Black Luster Soldier, Chaos Angel) summoned off Ritual and Fusion/Synchro lines, closed by 2500+ ATK bodies; Fusion and Synchro follow-up (Granguignol, Stardust Dragon, Titaniklad, Mirrorjade) once the Ritual or Fallen of Albaz starter has resolved
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Light and Darkness Ritual or Fallen of Albaz starter, search via Ragged Records / Mind Shuffle / Skull Archfiend, then Ritual Summon a boss while holding hand traps for the opponent's first interaction
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Droll and Ghost Ogre as hand traps to stop the opponent's board, then rebuild through Mulcharmy draw effects and Ritual or Fusion summons
• Recovery: Mulcharmy Fuwalos and Purulia draw on opponent summons, Mind Shuffle returns a Level 7 or higher monster to hand, and Skull Archfiend recurs from GY
• After siding: None: the deck runs zero side cards, so there is no post-side plan in the list

Why it scores here

This is a structural read only, because the list is illegal in OCG: it runs 56 main cards with Albion the Branded Dragon (Forbidden), and three cards over their copy limits (Ash Blossom 3 of 2, Branded in High Spirits 2 of 1, Droll and Lock Bird 2 of 1). Consistency is middling. The searcher text group reaches a 0.87 probability of at least one searcher in a 5-card opening, but the archetype core it names is absent: no Diabellstar cards appear in the list, and the 16-card core is present at 3 of 16 entries. Interaction is the deck's strongest area, with 11 hand traps, 5 negation texts and 20 removal texts, which earns the going-second and end-board dimensions. Closing power comes from the Extra Deck bosses at 2500 to 3500 ATK. There are no recorded boards, guides, or tournament results, so the ceiling and median are text-inferred, and the score was not built by averaging card power. The score is capped low because of the legality violations.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 55, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-10); no_side_plan (-2). Final formula: Illegal cap: theoretical/structural only. Unmodified 0.80*Structural(55) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(40) = 52, then context modifiers -12 = 40, then capped to 35 for illegal status. Meta Power provisional.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.87 · 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 interaction: 11 hand traps and 20 removal-text cards give answers at both going first and going second
• Strong Extra Deck bosses (Black Chaos, Magician of Dark Chaos, Black Luster Soldier, Chaos Angel) with 2500 to 3500 ATK
• Searcher density (18 cards) gives high odds of finding a starter

Weaknesses

• Illegal in OCG: Albion is Forbidden and three cards exceed their copy limits
• Declared archetype Diabellstar has zero matching cards; the list is actually Branded, Light and Darkness Ritual, Albaz and Ecclesia
• No side deck, so there is no post-side plan
• Main deck of 56 cards is bloated, with 71 off-archetype copies

Critical choke points

• Fallen of Albaz and Ecclesia enablers are needed for most Fusion and Synchro lines; losing them to a single hand trap collapses several routes
• Ritual summons depend on Light and Darkness Ritual, a single copy

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: 56 main, 15 extra, 0 side; Albion is Forbidden; Ash Blossom 3/2, Branded in High Spirits 2/1, Droll 2/1 over limit; Archetype purity: 0 Diabellstar-named copies; 71 off-archetype copies; Card-text role counts: 11 hand traps, 18 searchers, 20 removal texts, 5 negation texts
• Inferred: Consistency estimates (0.87 searcher, 0.75 hand trap, 0.55 core) are hypergeometric; Combo ceiling and median are text-inferred because no boards exist
• Provisional: Matchup fit and Meta Power: no dated metagame sample
• Data gaps: No recorded boards, 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 for going-first, going-second, or matchups No guides attached for the archetype Declared archetype Diabellstar does not match the card list; confirm the intended archetype
