Diabellstar Deck #772998 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 34/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Control, 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: Link/Xyz boards from Orcust and Azamina/Sinful Spoils engines, closed by Nibiru, Borrelsword Dragon, Dingirsu or Enlilgirsu (Inferred from card text; no recorded boards); Diabellstar the Black Witch as a 2500-ATK beatstick when it lands (Inferred)
• Turn 1 (going first): Open on Mulcharmy/Orcust starters and a Link or Xyz line; hold hand traps for the opponent's first summon (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Ash, Infinite Impermanence, Droll, Solemn) against the opponent's first summon, then rebuild through Orcust Harp Horror and Galatea (Inferred)
• Recovery: Recur Orcust monsters via Orcustrated Return, Cymbal Skeleton and Mulcharmy draws; Sinful Spoils WANTED for searches (Inferred)
• After siding: No side deck is listed, so there is no post-side plan (verified by Side Deck size 0)

Why it scores here

The list is Illegal: three cards exceed their copy limits (Ash Blossom and Dominus Impulse at 3 copies against a limit of 2, WANTED at 3 against 1), so this is a structural-only read capped low. The deck reliably has interaction: three Ash Blossom, three Infinite Impermanence, three Solemn-style negations, and several hand traps give a 75% chance of at least one hand trap when going second. Its engine is split across Orcust, Mulcharmy, Azamina/Sinful Spoils and only three Diabellstar the Black Witch, so the Diabellstar identity is largely absent (4.3% exact-name purity) and the starter is only about 25% likely in an opening hand of five. Conversion and median output are unobserved because no recorded boards exist, so those scores rest on card text. The score reflects the system's consistency, engine conflicts and brick risk, not the popularity of Diabellstar and not an average of card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary with Control secondary (approx. 80/20 by weight; structural weights taken from Midrange profile). Structural ≈ 45.6, Going First ≈ 38, Going Second ≈ 56, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-4); engine conflicts (-3); no side deck (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional; Illegal list, so structural-only and capped low) = 0.80*45.6 + 0.20*35 - 9 = 34.5 -> 34

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.25 · 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 interaction: three Ash Blossom, three Infinite Impermanence, Solemn Strike/Judgment and Droll & Lock Bird
• Strong Link/Xyz end-boards with Galatea, Borrelsword Dragon, Dingirsu and Enlilgirsu
• Good Extra Deck coverage: 12 Link monsters for the Orcust route

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy-limit violations (Ash, Dominus Impulse, WANTED)
• Diabellstar identity mostly absent: only 3 Witches and none of the core Diabell cards
• Split engines (Orcust, Mulcharmy, Azamina, Sinful Spoils) conflict in the opening hand
• No side deck at all
• Many off-archetype tech and negation slots dilute the main deck

Critical choke points

• Diabellstar the Black Witch (3 copies, about 25% per opening hand of five)
• Hand-trap-dependent going-second plan with no backup if all interaction is used on the first turn

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: three cards over copy limit (Ash, Dominus Impulse, WANTED); Main 55 and Extra 15 within size rules; side 0; Banlist statuses from the evidence pack; Card text and stats for listed cards; Archetype usage: The Hallowed Azamina, Mulcharmy Fuwalos and Diabellstar Witch are core cards; several Diabell core cards are missing
• Observed: Exact-name purity 4.3% and sub-archetype spread from the deck list
• Inferred: Starter and brick probabilities from hypergeometric estimates; Engine conflict and interaction quality from card text; Going-first and going-second plans
• Provisional: Meta power (null); Matchup and format fit (no dated sample); Tournament reliability (no tournament link)
• Data gaps: no combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick/starter rates) Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied no side deck listed
