Radiant Typhoon Deck #772774 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Quick-Play Spell chain (Mystical Space Typhoon, Radiant Typhoon Vision/Ascendance/Chant/Manifestation) that Special Summons Radiant Typhoon monsters and converts into WIND boards such as Fonix, Varuroon and Ty-Phon (text-based read, no recorded boards); Extra Deck link and Xyz pressure (Varuroon Marine, Hraesvelgr, Totem Bird, Super Starslayer TY-PHON) plus Ecclesia/Albaz Dragon sub-engine
• Turn 1 (going first): Open on Radiant Typhoon starters (Eldam/Swen/Krosea/Meghala) or a Quick-Play, then search via Vision/Ascendance and extend into Varuroon or Fonix
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Evenly Matched, Solemn Judgment) and Varuroon negation to answer the opponent's first board, then Quick-Play chain recovery
• Recovery: Mystical Space Typhoon recursion via Radiant Typhoon Mandate and Quick-Play Spell recycling, plus Mulcharmy hand refill
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so no post-side plan exists in this list (see d12)

Why it scores here

The deck's reliable opening rests on a searcher-dense Radiant Typhoon core (Mystical Space Typhoon, Radiant Typhoon Vision, Eldam, Swen, Krosea), giving about 0.87 probability of at least one searcher-text card in a going-first 5-card hand and about 0.76 of at least one archetype-core card. Interaction is broad (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Evenly Matched, Solemn Judgment, Varuroon negation, Mandate), which earns the highest engine-side score in D7 and keeps the going-second hand-trap probability near 0.52. Conversion and median output could not be measured because no combos were supplied, so D3 and D4 are text-only inferences and stay low. The deck runs 3 copies of two Semi-Limited cards and has no side deck, which caps side adaptability and makes the list illegal, so the score is capped at 30 as a theoretical/structural read. Popularity was not credited (no tournament data, archetype stats show the core runs at 53-72%), and card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 49, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 45, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: illegal_copy_limit_cap (-18); no Side Deck (0). Final formula: 0.80*Structural(49) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) + ContextModifiers(-18, illegal copy-limit cap) ≈ 30; Meta provisional

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ — · 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 text (18 cards) and about 0.87 hand-5 access to a searcher
• Broad, layered interaction: Ash, Droll, Evenly Matched, Solemn Judgment, Varuroon, Mandate
• Several independent Radiant Typhoon summon routes give some redundancy

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: 3 copies each of Ash Blossom and The Fallen & The Virtuous against a limit of 2
• No side deck, so no post-side adaptability
• Low archetype purity (33%): 47 off-archetype copies, weakening engine cohesion
• No recorded combos, so ceiling and median are unmeasured

Critical choke points

• Mystical Space Typhoon is the engine's central piece (3 copies plus recursion), so its absence collapses the Quick-Play chain
• Several Radiant Typhoon summons need Mystical Space Typhoon in the GY or an opponent with no Spell/Trap

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: Ash Blossom and The Fallen & The Virtuous over copy limit; Main 55 and Extra 15 are within OCG size rules; side is 0; Banlist statuses for Limited and Semi-Limited cards
• Inferred: Hypergeometric starter and hand-trap probabilities; Strategy classification from card text; Interaction and resilience reads from card text
• Provisional: Meta and matchup fit (no dated meta sample); Tournament reliability (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 no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN — going-first/second, matchup, game-level, brick/starter/OTK rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied no side deck registered
