Blue-Eyes Deck #772910 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Blue-Eyes Spirit Dragon, Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon and Blue-Eyes White Dragon boards backed by hand traps and negations (theoretical; no combo evidence); Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon and Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon are absent from the list, so no fusion closer is present
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Sage with Eyes of Blue or Maiden of White, search or summon into Blue-Eyes material, and hold Effect Veiler and Infinite Impermanence for the opponent's first response
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Ash Blossom, Effect Veiler, Ghost Belle, Ghost Ogre, Skull Meister, Nibiru) and Solemn Warning or Judgment to stop the opponent's opening, then rebuild through Blue-Eyes extra-deck summons
• Recovery: Recursion comes from Mausoleum of White, Wishes for Eyes of Blue and the Blue-Eyes GY effects; the list has no dedicated recovery engine beyond these
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered (0 cards), so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The list is an Illegal OCG build (Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring is run 3 copies against a 2-copy limit), so its score is capped and labelled theoretical/structural-only. It opens reliably on the archetype core, which covers about 97% of hands by hypergeometric estimate (Inferred), and its 17 hand traps plus negation text give strong interaction on both turns. Conversion is weaker: there are no recorded boards, so ceiling and median are text-only inferences with low confidence, and the 15-card Extra Deck lacks the Blue-Eyes Tyrant and Neo Blue-Eyes closers. The 55-card main deck is bloated with 14 singletons, there is no Side Deck, and the Primite, Dominus and Solemn sub-themes conflict in engine focus. Popularity and archetype usage stats confirm the list is real but did not earn points, and card scores were not averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Stun primary with Midrange secondary; D13 kept at Stun weight although provisional. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-6); engine_conflicts (-3); illegal_cap (-7). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) = 50.8 before modifiers; illegal-deck cap applied to 35

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.97 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.03 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Dense hand-trap and negation suite (17 hand traps, 21 negation-text cards)
• High archetype core coverage (97% of hands contain at least one core card, Inferred)
• Strong Blue-Eyes Extra Deck board presence with 2500-3500 ATK dragons

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy count for Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring
• No Side Deck
• Bloated 55-card main with 14 singletons and off-engine sub-themes
• No Tyrant or Neo Blue-Eyes finisher in the Extra Deck

Critical choke points

• Blue-Eyes White Dragon count (2 copies) gates most Extra Deck summons
• Hand traps are the only interaction, so a dead hand loses the first exchange

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: Ash Blossom 3 copies vs 2 legal in OCG; Main 55, Extra 15, Side 0 within OCG size rules; Extra Deck breakdown: synchro 10, link 3, fusion 2; Archetype core present at 26 copies
• Inferred: Hypergeometric opening-hand odds for starters and hand traps; Stun-primary classification from hand-trap density; Interaction quality from negation text; Going-first and going-second estimates
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit and tournament reliability
• 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 results unknown no Side Deck; post-side performance cannot be assessed Meta Power provisional without a dated metagame sample
