Predaplant Deck #772800 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 65/100 (±6 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion Summon DARK Fusion Monsters from the Extra Deck (Starving Venom Predapower, Greedy Venom, Triphyoverutum, Dragostapelia) using Polymerization-type spells and Predaplant starters; Synchro and Fusion beaters (Black Rose Dragon, Bramble Rose Dragon, Clear Wing Synchro Dragon) and Garura's doubled battle damage
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Predaplant starter (Ophrys Scorpio, Longinephila, Bufolicula, Dracaena, Predaprimitive); chain to Predaprimitive or Lilizard to fetch a Polymerization-type spell, then Fusion Summon a DARK Fusion Monster
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the 7 hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Sister, Infinite Impermanence, Droll and Lock Bird) to disrupt the opponent's first Summon or search, then continue with a Predaplant starter if one survives
• Recovery: Recur Predaplant Byblisp and Predaplant Darlingtonia Cobra from the GY, and reuse Fusion Substitute's GY effect to return a Fusion Monster to the Extra Deck and draw
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan; the deck cannot adapt between games in a best-of-3

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a functional plan: 15 Main Deck Predaplant starters at 3 copies each give roughly 92% odds of at least one starter in a 5-card opening hand, by hypergeometric estimate (Inferred), and about 95% in a 6-card hand going second. Conversion depends on Polymerization-type access (Super Duper, Super, Ultra Polymerization, Fusion Substitute, Instant Fusion, plus searchers Predaprimitive, Lilizard and Cobra), and the Extra Deck's high-ATK DARK Fusion Monsters give a strong ceiling. Interaction is layered: 7 hand traps plus Tribute-negates on Triphyoverutum and Greedy Venom. Floor and median output are unmeasured because the evidence has no recorded boards, so they are scored from card text only and stay below the ceiling. Popularity (archetype core inclusion around 50-70%) confirms the list is real but did not add points, the score comes from consistency, interaction and output on the system, and card scores were not averaged. The main weaknesses are the empty Side Deck, which gives no post-side plan, and the fusion-chain pilotability cost.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 70, Going First ≈ 72, Going Second ≈ 68, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 62. Modifiers: No Side Deck (-2); Mixed sub-archetypes and generic staples (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.92 · 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

• 15 three-copy starters give high opening-hand access
• Seven hand traps and six negate-text cards cover both turns
• Extra Deck has high-ATK DARK Fusion beaters and Tribute-negates
• Strong GY recursion (Byblisp, Cobra, Fusion Substitute)

Weaknesses

• No Side Deck, so no post-side plan
• Dependence on Polymerization-type access to convert starters
• Only 34.5% exact-name archetype purity; generic staples dilute the engine
• Complex Fusion chains raise pilot error risk

Critical choke points

• Polymerization-type spells (about 6 enablers) are required to Fusion Summon most of the Extra Deck
• Opposing negates on the first Fusion Summon stop the whole line

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal status: 40 Main, 15 Extra, 0 Side, all restricted counts within legal limits; Card text for all 21 Main and 14 Extra distinct cards; Copy histogram and Extra Deck composition (11 Fusion, 4 Synchro)
• Observed: Archetype usage: core Predaplant cards at 50-72% inclusion
• Inferred: Starter access about 0.92 in 5 cards and 0.95 in 6 cards (hypergeometric); Going-first and going-second estimates from hand traps and starter density; Ceiling and interaction ratings from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated sample); Matchup and format fit (no tournament link); Side plan (no Side Deck)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry; going-first, going-second and matchup rates are Inferred Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck title is null
