Legality

Main 55 / Extra 0 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 7 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Monarch Tribute Summon boards (Mobius the Frost Monarch, Granmarg the Rock Monarch at 2400 ATK) backed by generic card-advantage and removal; Direct attacks from D.D. and Goblin Attack Force beaters after clearing blockers with Smashing Ground, Dust Tornado and Mystic Swordsman LV2
  • Turn 1 (going first): Search or draw toward a 2400-ATK Monarch, Tribute it to destroy a Spell/Trap, and extend with Greed draws; no verified starter route, so this is Inferred
  • Turn 2 (going second): Use Solemn Judgment, Dust Tornado, Mirror Force and Royal Decree to answer the opponent's board, then rebuild with Monarch Tribute Summons (Inferred)
  • Recovery: Greed draw spells (Jar of Greed, Graceful Charity if legal) and Reinforcement of the Army for a Warrior body (Inferred)
  • After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

This OCG Monarch list is Illegal: five Forbidden cards are in the Main Deck, and Reinforcement of the Army and Solemn Judgment each run two copies against a limit of one. Because of that, the score is capped at 22 and the evaluation is theoretical and structural only. The 14 dimensions were scored on the list as a system. Its interaction density (about 34 removal-text cards, with Heavy Storm, Dust Tornado, Mirror Force and Solemn) is the strongest signal, and the Monarch tribute boards give it a real closing threat. Engine access is weak: the Monarch starters are two-copy cards with about an 18% chance of appearing in a 5-card opening hand, and the 42 generic cards offer little engine cohesion. No combo records, usage statistics, tournament data or side deck exist, so the ceiling and median cannot be separated from text, and no card scores were averaged into the deck score. Popularity or archetype share played no part in the score.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 35 P(at least one 2-copy Monarch starter in a 5-card opening hand) ≈ 0.18; engine depends on few 2-copy Monarchs with no usage-stat core (Inferred)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 32 Generic 1-2-3 copy spread with 6 tech cards and 2 searchers; no hand-trap package; high brick risk on going-first hands (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 35 No recorded combos; ceiling is text-derived from Monarch Tribute destruction plus Mobius/Granmarg 2400-ATK bodies (Inferred)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 35 No combo boards, so the median is unobservable; generic card-advantage text suggests a mid-level floor (Inferred)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 40 Roughly 34 removal-text cards and Dust Tornado/Smashing Ground offer recovery routes, but few recursion effects (Inferred)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 45 Three Greed draw cards plus Dimension Fusion give card-advantage recovery, but Forbidden status removes most of it in-format (Verified legality / Inferred)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 60 Heavy Storm, Dust Tornado, Mirror Force, Solemn Judgment, Royal Decree and Smashing Ground give a layered, multi-answer end board (Verified text / Inferred)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 50 Mirror Force, Torrential Tribute and Monarch tributes punish boards, but going-second strength is unobserved (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 40 Mobius and Granmarg reach 2400 ATK with Goblin Attack Force and D.D. Assailant as beaters; no direct-damage finisher beyond Amazoness Archer, which is Forbidden (Verified stats / Inferred)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 45 55 Main Deck cards with 35 distinct names, 19 singletons, and 6 tech slots that dilute the Monarch core (Verified composition)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 30 Extra Deck is empty: no Extra-Deck coverage and no flexibility, so this dimension scores low on coverage (Verified)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 20 No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptation; best-of-three play is not supported by this list (Verified)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 40 No tournament share, meta sample or matchup data; the score is a provisional read of the list's generic format fit (Provisional)
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 60 Monarch tributes and Greed draws are simple to execute; Solemn and Dust Tornado timing is not complex (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox. Structural ≈ 40, Going First ≈ 34, Going Second ≈ 40, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 30. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-10); over-limit Limited cards (-2). Final formula: Structural 40.4 → 0.80*40.4 + 0.20*30 = 38.4, then -12 modifiers = 26.4, capped at 22 because the deck is Illegal (Meta provisional/null)

Probability & combo summary

  • Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.18 · 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

  • Layered removal and negation: Heavy Storm, Dust Tornado, Mirror Force, Solemn Judgment, Royal Decree and Smashing Ground
  • Monarch tribute bodies (Mobius and Granmarg, 2400 ATK) give a real board threat
  • Generic card-advantage through Greed draw cards (illegal in-format at current copy limits)

Weaknesses

  • Illegal in OCG: five Forbidden cards and two over-limit Limited cards
  • Low Monarch density: 4 exact-name Monarch cards out of 55
  • No Extra Deck and no Side Deck, so there is no Extra-Deck coverage and no post-side plan
  • Heavy reliance on generic tech cards that dilute the engine

Critical choke points

  • Legality: the list cannot be played in OCG until the Forbidden and Limited overages are removed
  • Monarch tribute requires a 2400-ATK Monarch on board, and only 4 are in the deck
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 Dimension Fusion, Delinquent Duo, Pot of Greed, Graceful Charity, Amazoness Archer Legal replacements (Monarch support or generic draw) to restore legality The deck is Illegal; no score above the cap is possible until the Forbidden cards are removed
2 One copy each of Reinforcement of the Army and Solemn Judgment Legal single-copy substitutes Both cards exceed the Limited copy limit of 1
3 Several generic tech cards (for example Dimension Fusion-style one-ofs) Monarch support or a Side Deck Adds engine density and gives a post-side plan

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Legality: 5 Forbidden cards and 2 Limited copy-limit violations (Illegal); Main Deck size of 55 is within 40–60; Extra and Side are empty; Card stats and text from the resolved card list
  • Inferred: Engine access and brick estimates from hypergeometric odds; Interaction density reads from card text; Going-first and going-second plans from text
  • Provisional: Meta Power (null) and matchup/format fit (D13) without a dated sample
  • Data gaps: No combos supplied; combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No archetype usage statistics; core and meta-standard comparison unavailable No tournament link; archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent No win-rate telemetry for this deck Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
