Cyberdark Deck #772745 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 48/100 (±6 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 58 / Extra 14 / Side 0 — status: Legal with warning.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion Summon a Cyberdark or Cyber Dragon boss (Cyberdark End Dragon 5000 ATK, Cyber End Dragon 4000 ATK, Cyber Eternity Dragon 2800 ATK) and convert with equip and piercing damage.; Cyber Dragon Nova and Cyber Dragon Sieger Link/Xyz pressure, plus Raigeki-style board clears followed by a direct-attack finish.
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon Cyber Dragon Core or Cyberdark Claw to search a Cyber/Cyberdark Spell/Trap, set Cyber Emergency or Cybernetic Horizon, and hold hand traps (Infinite Impermanence, D.D. Crow) for the opponent's first activation.
• Turn 2 (going second): Respond to the opponent's first board with hand traps (D.D. Crow, Ghost Belle, Artifact Lancea, PSY-Framegear Gamma), then use Cyber Dragon Herz or Nachster to reach Fusion or Link material.
• Recovery: Recur Cyber Dragon and Cyberdark monsters from the GY through Cyberdark Realm, Cyberdark Claw, Cyberdark Cannon and Cyberdark Edge equip effects; Cyber Eternity Dragon can be Special Summoned from the GY-based Machine Fusion lines.
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered (side_count 0), so there is no evidenced post-side plan; this line is unverified and scored as a weakness.

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens into a searcher-driven engine: the archetype-core group has about an 86% chance of at least one copy in a 5-card opening hand, and 22 searcher-text cards give about a 92% chance of one searcher. Its interaction suite (Infinite Impermanence, Cosmic Cyclone, Lightning Storm, Harpie's Feather Duster, Raigeki, Dark Ruler No More, Sales Ban, Ghost Belle) is dense and layered, which drives the going-second and endboard scores. The fusion-based closing power (Cyberdark End Dragon, Cyber End Dragon, Cyber Eternity Dragon) gives a high ceiling, but the deck runs three overlapping engines (Cyberdark, Cyber Dragon, and PSY-Frame/Artifact/Therion splash), with only 22% exact-name Cyberdark purity, which lowers the median and the pilotability score. No combo boards were recorded, so the floor and median are inferred from text only. Popularity and usage statistics confirm the list is a real, accessible build, but they earned no points on their own, and card scores were not averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 58, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 60, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: engine conflict (-4); Extra-Deck dependence on unlisted card (-2); no side deck (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional, no dated metagame sample)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.86 · 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 searcher suite (22 searcher-text cards) gives high starter access
• Layered interaction: hand traps, negates, and board clears (Raigeki, Lightning Storm, Harpie's Feather Duster)
• High-ceiling fusion closers (Cyberdark End Dragon, Cyber End Dragon, Cyber Eternity Dragon)

Weaknesses

• Three overlapping engines with 22.2% exact-name Cyberdark purity
• 17 tech slots and 18 singletons raise brick and dead-card risk
• No Side Deck registered, so no post-side plan is evidenced

Critical choke points

• Cyberdark Dragon's recipe needs Cyberdark Keel, which is absent from the list
• Cyber Dragon and Cyberdark engines must both be live; a missed searcher stalls the fusion line

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal status with Harpie's Feather Duster and PSY-Framegear Gamma at 1 copy each (both Limited, legal_copies 1); Main 58, Extra 14, side 0 within OCG size rules; Copy histogram sums to 58 Main cards
• Inferred: Starter access about 86% (archetype core) and about 92% (searcher text) in a 5-card hand; Interaction density scores D7 and D8 from role tags and removal/negate text; Engine conflict and purity penalty from archetype_spread
• Provisional: Meta Power (null, no dated metagame sample); Matchup and format fit (no tournament link)
• Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link — archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent 1 passcode (10443957) could not be resolved to a card (counted as main) no side deck registered — post-side plan cannot be evaluated no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN — brick, starter, and matchup rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
