Power Patron Deck #772704 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 57 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Power Patron Link/Xyz/Fusion boards (Vidolium 5000 ATK, Jupiter 3500, Nerva 3300, Junora 3100) reached through Medius/Mulcharmy draw-and-search lines, theoretical only because the list is illegal; Artmage Fusion boards backed by hand traps and Solemn/Typhoon interaction
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Power Patron or Mulcharmy starter in 5 cards (about 84% for the 17-card core), search or summon Medius/Theorealized Medius, and build a Link or Xyz board while holding Ash Blossom or Solemn as protection
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the 6-card hand to bring a hand trap (Ash, Evenly Matched, Nibiru, Droll, Dominus Impulse, Solemn) against the opponent's first Summon and continue through Mulcharmy draw triggers
• Recovery: Mulcharmy Fuwalos and Purulia draw on the opponent's Summons, Medius recurs from the GY, and Theorealize Past Lull reaches Fusion, Synchro, or Xyz monsters from the GY
• After siding: No side deck is registered (side_count 0), so there is no post-side plan to score; D12 is near the floor

Why it scores here

The deck scores as a connected Power Patron system, not as an average of its card scores. The 17-card core opens at least one starter in 5 cards about 84% of the time (hypergeometric, Inferred), and the Medius and Mulcharmy draw-and-search lines keep the list going after the opening. Its interaction density is high: three Solemn cards, Typhoon, Evenly Matched, Ash Blossom, Dominus Impulse, Droll & Lock Bird, and Nibiru give it strong end-board control and going-second hand-trap coverage. Its closing power comes from the Link and Xyz Power Patron boards, but there are no recorded boards, so the ceiling and median are text-based inference only. The score is capped because the list is illegal: three cards run three copies where OCG Semi-Limited allows two. Popularity and archetype usage did not earn points, and the score is treated as theoretical and structural only.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 55.7, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 60, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-3); no_side_deck (-2). Final formula: Pre-cap: 0.80*Structural(55.7) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(50) + ContextModifiers(-5) = 49.5; Illegal legality cap applied, final = 30. Meta Power provisional/null.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.84 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.16 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Layered interaction: three Solemn, Typhoon, Evenly Matched, Ash Blossom, Dominus Impulse, Droll & Lock Bird
• Consistent starter access with a 17-card core (P open >=1 ~0.84)
• High-ATK Power Patron Link/Xyz/Fusion finishers

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy counts on three cards (Ash Blossom, Dominus Impulse, Solemn Warning)
• Low archetype purity (13.9%) with 62 off-archetype copies
• No side deck (side_count 0)
• No recorded combos, so the floor and median are unmeasured

Critical choke points

• Medius / Mulcharmy draw-and-search starters (the 17-card core) are the single entry point to the engine
• Limited-status cards (Droll, Solemn Judgment, Terminus, S:P Little Knight) cannot be replaced by additional copies

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Copy-limit violations on Ash Blossom, Dominus Impulse and Solemn Warning (OCG Semi-Limited, legal 2, run 3); Main 57 and Extra 15 are within OCG size rules; side 0; Archetype purity 13.9% (10 exact / 72 counted cards); Starter probabilities re-checked: 3 copies P(>=1 in 5) = 0.2447 (hypergeometric)
• Observed: Usage: Power Patron core cards 84%-88% inclusion; Mulcharmy Fuwalos 84% (usage_statistics)
• Inferred: Consistency of about 0.84 starter access and brick proxy 0.16; Hand-trap coverage P(>=1 in 6 going second) ~0.70; Interaction layering read from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power and D13 matchup/format fit (no dated meta sample or tournament link)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: floor, median, and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent No win-rate or matchup telemetry in YGOVN Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample No side deck registered (side_count 0) archetype_spread contains an export artifact ('| supports_archetypes Power Patron') on Shade the Obscure, which was not counted as a separate archetype
