Radiant Typhoon Deck #773294 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 44 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Quick-Play Spell chains (Radiant Typhoon / Runick) that Special Summon Extra Deck boss monsters such as Fonix, Zeus, Shiina and Underworld Goddess; Mystical Space Typhoon and Radiant Typhoon Vision/Chant card advantage into a board of 2900-3000 ATK monsters
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a searcher (Runick Tip, Eldam, Swen, Krosea) and use a Quick-Play Spell to banish and Extra Deck Summon a Runick monster; the deck skips the next Battle Phase after each Runick spell, so the turn is for board and removal, not attacks
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Quick-Play Spells (Runick Slumber, Flashing Fire, Destruction, Freezing Curses, Radiant Typhoon Vision) for the opponent's turn to remove or negate their board, then summon from Extra on the next turn
• Recovery: Runick Fountain and Radiant Typhoon Mandate recycle Quick-Play Spells from the GY; Vision and Chant search and draw to rebuild
• After siding: Not available: the list runs no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck is illegal as submitted: Runick Fountain is run at 2 copies against a Limited limit of 1, so the score is capped at 30 and labelled structural/theoretical only. Structurally, the list is coherent around Quick-Play Spells: 16 searcher-text cards give a 0.91 chance of at least one searcher in the opening 5, and 21 removal-text cards plus 5 negation cards give real interaction density on both turns. Its Extra Deck supplies 3000-ATK closers, but the Runick spells skip the next Battle Phase, which slows the pressure a Midrange deck needs. No combo boards were recorded, so the floor and median are inferred from text alone. Archetype popularity is not credited here: only 30.5% of the cards carry the exact Radiant Typhoon name, and the score was not averaged from individual card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 48, Going Second ≈ 55, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: Banlist exposure (-6); No side deck (-3). Final formula: 0.80*Structural(52) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) = 50.6 (Meta provisional); modifiers -9 gives 41.6; capped at 30 because the deck is Illegal, so this is a structural/theoretical score only

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.31 · 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

• 16 searcher-text cards give 0.91 searcher access in the opening 5
• 21 removal-text and 5 negation-text cards give layered interaction
• Extra Deck closers at 2900-3000 ATK (Fonix, Zeus, Shiina, Underworld Goddess)
• Quick-Play Spells recur through Runick Fountain and Radiant Typhoon Mandate

Weaknesses

• Illegal list: Runick Fountain at 2 copies against a limit of 1
• No Side Deck, so no post-side plan
• No recorded combo boards to confirm the ceiling or median
• Only 30.5% exact-name archetype purity, with Runick spells that skip Battle Phases
• 27 Level-0 spells rely on Extra Deck or other cards for conversion

Critical choke points

• Quick-Play Spell timing and the Extra Deck Runick summon in the same turn
• Runick Battle Phase skip after each Runick spell delays pressure
• Single copy of the searcher Radiant Typhoon Chant (Limited)
