Primite Deck #773013 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±5 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 56 / Extra 16 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Blue-Eyes Extra Deck threats (Blue-Eyes Spirit Dragon, Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon, Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon) reached through Blue-Eyes White Dragon and Blue-Eyes searchers; Synchro and Link boards (Lightstorm Dragon, Crimson Dragon, Stardust Sifr) and Primite Dragon Ether Beryl beatdown
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon Sage with Eyes of Blue or Master with Eyes of Blue to search a Tuner, use Mausoleum of White for an extra Tuner, and build toward a Synchro Summon; hold Ash Blossom and Droll as protection
• Turn 2 (going second): Keep hand traps (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Effect Veiler, Infinite Impermanence, Evenly Matched, Dominus Purge) to answer the opponent's first engine, then rebuild from Wishes and Lordly Lode searches
• Recovery: Recover via Wishes for Eyes of Blue (banish from GY), Master with Eyes of Blue (GY Tuner recovery), and Mausoleum of White, which can rebuild the Tuner count after a hand-trap spend
• After siding: No side Deck is built, so there is no post-side plan; the deck cannot be legally submitted as is

Why it scores here

The score reflects the deck as a system, not an average of its cards. Searchers (17 text hits) give an estimated 85% chance of at least one searcher in a 5-card opening hand, and the Blue-Eyes and Primite core reaches a Tuner-plus-Synchro line on most turn-one starts (Inferred). Hand traps (11) and negation text (9) give real interaction, with about 75% chance of at least one hand trap in a going-second 6-card hand (Inferred). Closing power is credible through several 2400 to 3400 ATK Extra Deck threats, and Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon adds a multi-attack ending. Brick risk is high, however: 67 of 123 copies are off-archetype, the exact Primite name purity is about 7%, and there are no side-deck slots. The deck is illegal in OCG (3 Ash Blossom copies where 2 are allowed, and 16 Extra Deck cards where 15 are allowed), so the final score is capped at 30 and the result is structural only. Popularity was not used: the archetype core group is 95% likely to appear in a hand, but that is access, not power, and the 0.80 structural and 0.20 reliability blend was not averaged from card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 53.3, Going First ≈ 52, Going Second ≈ 58, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: Illegal list cap (-12.6); Banlist exposure (-5); Engine conflict and purity (-4). Final formula: Illegal deck: 0.80*Structural(53.3) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) = 51.6, modifiers -9 gives 42.6, then capped at 30 for illegal legality (structural-only, theoretical)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.85 · 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

• Searcher density gives frequent access to Tuners and Blue-Eyes parts
• Hand traps (11) and negation text (9) cover multiple windows
• Several 2400 to 3400 ATK Extra Deck threats with multiple routes
• Core Blue-Eyes and Primite cards have Mausoleum and Master recovery

Weaknesses

• Illegal in OCG: Ash Blossom over copy limit and Extra Deck over size
• No side Deck
• Low archetype purity (7% exact name) with many off-archetype slots
• High hand-trap and Tuner brick risk
• No recorded boards or meta data to support the combo ceiling

Critical choke points

• Tuner access: Sage, Maiden, Master and Mausoleum are the only Tuner sources
• Ash Blossom and Droll are the main protection, and both are restricted in count

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: Ash Blossom 3 copies vs legal 2; Extra Deck 16 vs 15; Banlist status: Droll & Lock Bird Limited, Ash Blossom Semi-Limited; Main 56, Extra 16, Side 0 counts; Archetype purity 6.9% exact name; 67 off-archetype copies
• Observed: Usage stats: Mausoleum, Sage, True Light and Maiden have 77-84% inclusion
• Inferred: At least one searcher in a 5-card hand ≈ 0.85; At least one hand trap in a going-second 6-card hand ≈ 0.75; Brick and dead-hand rates from composition and card text; Going-first and going-second strengths and combo ceiling from text only
• Provisional: Meta power and matchup fit (no dated metagame sample or tournament link)
• Data gaps: no combos supplied; floor, median, and ceiling are text-only no tournament link; archetype meta share and pilot record absent no win-rate telemetry; going-first and going-second splits are Inferred no side Deck; post-side adaptability cannot be measured Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
