Dominus Deck #773318 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Ritual Beast Ulti Extra Deck summons (Gaiapelio, Apelio, Nochiudrago) and high-ATK link boards (Topologic Blaster Dragon 3500, Underworld Goddess 3000, Perfectron 5000), if the list were legal; Perfectron Hydradrive Dragon board wipe followed by a link beatdown
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Ritual Beast Tamer or Spiritual Beast starter with Emergency Teleport or Quick Summon, bridge to a Ritual Beast Ulti Fusion or Link, and protect the board with Ash Blossom, Droll and Maxx C
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Ash Blossom, Maxx C, Droll and Lock Bird, Ghost Ogre) to stop the opponent's summon, then Ritual Beast Ulti summons from the banished zone
• Recovery: Banished Ritual Beast monsters re-enter via Ulti-Reirautari, Wen and Ulti-Kimunfalcos; Gold Sarcophagus and Nemeses Corridor supply later-turn card advantage
• After siding: No side deck is registered (0 of up to 15 slots), so there is no post-side plan to evaluate

Why it scores here

The list is Illegal as built: three Forbidden cards (Triple Tactics Talent, Charmer Quartet in Bloom, Cross-Sheep) are run at one copy each, so under the rubric it receives a capped, structural-only score of 30 rather than a normal contextual score. The structural read (52) comes from the system, not an average of card scores: the three-copy Ritual Beast starters (Tamer Elder, Lara, Cannahawk, Rampengu) give a real but variance-prone engine, with about a 34% chance per copy of a starter in a 5-card opening hand. The deck's interaction density (Ash Blossom, Maxx C, Droll and Lock Bird, Ghost Ogre, Crossout Designator, Underworld Goddess) and its high-ATK link finishers earn the interaction and closing scores. Popularity did not earn points: the core cards Mulcharmy Fuwalos and Infinite Impermanence are absent, and the 15-slot side deck is empty, which is what pulls down the post-side and adaptability scores. No combos, guides, or tournament data are attached, so the ceiling and floor reads are text-only inference.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 56, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-12). Final formula: Illegal cap applied: 0.80*Structural(52) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(40) + banlist modifier(-12) = 37.6, capped to 30 because the list is Illegal (Meta Provisional, null)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.34 · 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 Ritual Beast starter package with three-copy redundancy
• Strong hand-trap and negation suite (Ash Blossom, Maxx C, Droll and Lock Bird, Ghost Ogre)
• High-ATK Extra Deck finishers (Topologic Blaster, Underworld Goddess, Perfectron)

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: three Forbidden cards
• Empty side deck (0 of 15)
• Core archetype cards Mulcharmy Fuwalos and Infinite Impermanence are absent
• Archetype label Dominus has no Dominus card in the list (55 off-archetype copies)

Critical choke points

• Bootstrap depends on a Ritual Beast starter plus a Tamer, so a dead opening hand is common
• Single-copy Ulti monsters in the Extra Deck are not recoverable if they are lost

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: three Forbidden cards over copy limit, 40 main, 15 extra, 0 side; Card text and stats for all listed cards; Usage stats: Droll and Lock Bird and Maxx C are core at about 62% and 61%, both run
• Inferred: Starter probabilities and brick estimates from hypergeometric draws; Combo ceiling and floor from card text only; Pilotability and matchup of the engine
• Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Format fit (no 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 and going-second splits unknown Meta Power provisional without a dated metagame sample Deck title is null and archetype Dominus has no Dominus card in the list Usage core Mulcharmy Fuwalos and Infinite Impermanence not present
