Blue-Eyes Deck #773248 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 40/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 49 / Extra 16 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro and Fusion beaters (Blue-Eyes Spirit Dragon, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit Dragon, Blue-Eyes Twin Burst Dragon, Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon) backed by Blue-Eyes White Dragon; Cosmic Blazar Dragon and Shooting Quasar Dragon as Extra Deck closers; Primite and Mulcharmy supply hand-based pressure
• Turn 1 (going first): Open on Sage with Eyes of Blue, Maiden of White, or Wishes for Eyes of Blue to reach Tuners and Blue-Eyes monsters, then Synchro or Fusion into a Blue-Eyes beater while holding Ash Blossom or Ghost Belle as protection
• Turn 2 (going second): Use the six-card hand's hand traps (Infinite Impermanence, Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Effect Veiler, Ghost Ogre, Dominus Purge) to answer the opponent's first board, then rebuild through Tuners
• Recovery: Recursion from the graveyard through Maiden of White, Mausoleum of White, and Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit Dragon, plus Ghost Belle and Ash Blossom protecting the engine
• After siding: Not applicable: side deck is empty (0 cards), so there is no post-side plan in this list

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens on its Tuner starters: 16 Tuners and a 3-copy core of Sage, Maiden, and Wishes give roughly 0.98 odds of hitting the 26-card archetype core in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred), and the Blue-Eyes Extra Deck beaters are real. Interaction is dense, with 13 hand traps and 16 negation-text cards, which earns the going-second and end-board scores. Conversion is scored on structure only because no recorded boards exist, so the ceiling and median cannot be separated from evidence. Popularity did not earn points: the Blue-Eyes usage core is present (13 of 22 core cards, 59%), but that confirms the list is real rather than strong. The score is also capped by legality, since Ash Blossom is over the OCG copy limit and the Extra Deck holds 16 of 15 allowed cards, and the cards were not averaged into a deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 58, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 48. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-6); size_violation (-3); archetype purity (-3). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers = 0.80*58 + 0.20*48 - 12 = 44; capped at 40 because the list is Illegal (no normal Final score, theoretical/structural read only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.28 · 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 package: 13 hand traps and 16 negation-text cards cover both turns
• Tuner-heavy starter access with high odds of finding a Blue-Eyes core piece in hand
• Several high-ATK Blue-Eyes Extra Deck beaters with recursion and protection text

Weaknesses

• Illegal as listed: Ash Blossom over copy limit and Extra Deck over 15 cards
• Low archetype purity (23.1%) with mixed Primite, Mulcharmy, and Dominus cards that dilute the engine
• No side deck, so no post-side adaptation is possible

Critical choke points

• Blue-Eyes White Dragon count (2) gates most Blue-Eyes Synchro and Fusion routes
• Single Tuner Sage and Maiden dependence for the Synchro engine starts

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring over OCG copy limit (3 run, 2 legal); Extra Deck 16 exceeds 15; Usage core: 13 of 22 archetype core cards present (59.1%); Exact-name purity 23.1%; 0 side-deck cards
• Inferred: Hypergeometric starter, brick, and hand-trap odds; Going-second hand-trap density from text read; Synchro and Fusion route conversion from card text
• Provisional: Meta Power null; no dated metagame sample; Matchup fit and tournament reliability without 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 record absent no win-rate telemetry; going-first, going-second, and matchup signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power provisional without a dated metagame sample empty side deck: post-side adaptability cannot be measured
