Kaiju Deck #772772 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Vanquish Soul and K9 board pressure: Xyz/Link boss monsters (Vanquish Soul Caesar Valius, K9-X Werewolf, K9-X Ripper/M) backed by searcher-driven Vanquish Soul revealing chains; Kaiju Special Summon boards (Radian, Kumongous, Dogoran) and Mulcharmy draw-based attrition
• Turn 1 (going first): Search a Vanquish Soul monster with Vanquish Soul Dr. Mad Love or Vanquish Soul Jiaolong, then Stake your Soul! or Vanquish Soul Start to set up a Link/Xyz boss; hold Ash Blossom and Droll & Lock Bird for the opponent's responses
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Nibiru, Droll & Lock Bird) and Solemn Judgment to break the opponent's opening, then Special Summon a Kaiju or Vanquish Soul boss from hand
• Recovery: Recover via Mulcharmy draws, Vanquish Soul Continue? and Vanquish Soul Rocks Xyz from the Extra Deck; K9 Xyz recursion through K9-X Forced Release
• After siding: No side deck is registered (side 0), so there is no post-side plan; sideboarding cannot be evaluated

Why it scores here

This list is a three-engine pile (Vanquish Soul, K9, Mulcharmy) plus a Kaiju package, with only about 6% of the main deck sharing the exact Kaiju archetype name, so the score is driven by the system rather than by the individual cards. A 20-searcher and 8-hand-trap base gives an estimated 91% chance of at least one searcher in an opening five (Inferred), which keeps the engine accessible, and interaction density is high with Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Droll, Solemn Judgment and Vanquish Soul Calamity Caesar. The deck's Extra Deck produces boss monsters with 2600 to 3300 ATK, so closing power is strong when the engine connects. However, the list is illegal in OCG (three copy-limit violations), it has no side deck, no combo records, and no tournament data, so the ceiling is text-only and the median is provisional. Popularity and archetype usage did not earn points, and card scores were not averaged into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary with Toolbox secondary (theoretical structural read only). Structural ≈ 55.3, Going First ≈ 56, Going Second ≈ 61, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-5). Final formula: Theoretical structural only: Structural 55.3 (Midrange profile); unconstrained 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + modifiers = 48.2; capped to 35 because the list is Illegal (3 copy-limit violations, OCG). Meta provisional.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.91 · 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 density (20 searcher-text cards) keeps the engine accessible
• Eight hand traps and layered negation/removal give strong interaction on both turns
• Extra Deck bosses reach 2600 to 3300 ATK for closing power

Weaknesses

• Three copy-limit violations make the list illegal in OCG
• Zero side deck removes all post-side adaptability
• Three engines (Vanquish Soul, K9, Mulcharmy) plus Kaiju dilute consistency: 5.7% exact-name purity
• No combo or tournament evidence; ceiling and median are text-only inference

Critical choke points

• Vanquish Soul Razen, Ash Blossom and K9-17 Izuna are over the copy limit; the list cannot be played as built
• Each Vanquish Soul line needs a revealed Attribute monster in hand, so hand composition gates many effects

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Illegal, three copy-limit violations (OCG); Main 55, Extra 15, Side 0; Archetype purity 5.7% exact name, 66 off-archetype copies; Card text and stats from the resolved card list
• Inferred: P(at least 1 searcher in 5-card opening hand) approx 0.91; Hand-trap coverage and brick estimate; Interaction quality from text; Structural dimension scores
• Provisional: Meta power (null, no dated metagame sample); Format fit (D13); Median combo output (no combos)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied; combo floor, median, and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchups, or brick rates Meta power is provisional without a dated metagame sample No side deck; post-side performance cannot be assessed Deck title is null
