Performapal Deck #773009 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 28/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Stun
• 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: Pendulum-summoned Odd-Eyes, Supreme King and Magician boss monsters (Rebellion Xyz, Absolute Dragon, Vortex Dragon, Dark Rebellion) that convert a board advantage into attack pressure; Link and Synchro beaters (Odd-Eyes Override, Accesscode Talker, Clear Wing) that use the Pendulum Zone for extra summons
• Turn 1 (going first): Search with Astrograph Sorcerer, Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon or Supreme King Dragon Darkwurm to set a Pendulum pair, then extend into an Extra Deck boss; no combos were recorded, so this is text-derived
• Turn 2 (going second): Open with hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Droll and Lock Bird) to slow the opponent's first turn, then rebuild the Pendulum engine from the Deck
• Recovery: Recursion through Odd-Eyes and Magician Pendulum effects that search or special summon from the Deck; Mulcharmy monsters draw cards when the hand is empty
• After siding: No Side Deck is registered (Side Deck size 0), so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

This deck is scored as a system, not as an average of its card scores. Its Pendulum engine opens reliably: 14 core archetype copies give about 78% odds of at least one in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred), and 20 searcher-text cards give about 91% (Inferred). Interaction is dense (7 hand-trap-tagged cards, 19 negation-text and 28 removal-text cards), which lifts end-board quality and going-second strength. The score is pulled down by a brick-prone shell (7 Mulcharmy monsters that are off-engine), no recorded combos (so floor, median and ceiling are text-only), and no Side Deck. Popularity did not earn points: usage data shows only 40% of the archetype's core cards are present, and there is no tournament or meta sample. The deck is Illegal (Ash Blossom at 3 copies against a limit of 2, and Droll and Lock Bird at 2 against a limit of 1), so the score is capped and is structural-only.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary, Toolbox secondary; structural weights from the Midrange profile. Structural ≈ 60, Going First ≈ 62, Going Second ≈ 60, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: copy_limit_violation (-12); no_side_plan (-2); mulcharmy_off_engine_dilution (-2). Final formula: Structural 60.4 x 0.80 + TR 50 x 0.20 = 58.3; modifiers -16 gives 42; Illegal-deck cap sets the final score to 28 (theoretical/structural only). Meta is provisional.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.78 · 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 (20 cards) gives about 91% odds of at least one search in a 5-card hand (Inferred)
• Strong interaction layer across 7 hand traps, 19 negation-text cards and Solemn Judgment (Inferred from text)
• High-ATK boss options in the Extra Deck, from 2500 to 3000 ATK (Verified stats)

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: 2 cards run over their copy limits (Verified)
• No Side Deck (Verified)
• 7 off-engine Mulcharmy monsters act as bricks (Inferred)
• Archetype core is only 40% present against usage stats (Observed)

Critical choke points

• Access to Odd-Eyes and Supreme King bosses depends on Pendulum Zone setup, which is not reliable on every hand (Inferred)
• Limited and Semi-Limited cards (Droll and Lock Bird, Ash Blossom, Solemn Judgment, Astrograph Sorcerer) cut redundancy if the list is corrected (Verified)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Illegal, with Ash Blossom at 3 copies (2 legal) and Droll and Lock Bird at 2 copies (1 legal); Main 55, Extra 15, Side 0 (within size rules); Card text and stats for the listed cards; Archetype core inclusion: 40% present
• Observed: Usage statistics show 6 of 15 core cards present
• Inferred: Opening-hand starter access (about 0.78 for the core group, about 0.91 for searchers); Brick rate from Pendulum scales and Mulcharmy bricks; Interaction density from text flags; Going-second hand-trap odds (about 0.58)
• Provisional: Meta Power and matchup fit (no dated meta sample); Combo floor and median (no parseable boards)
• 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: going-first, going-second and matchup rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample no Side Deck registered, so post-side is unevaluable
