Kaiju Deck #773352 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 45/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 60 / Extra 4 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Kaiju beatsticks (Radian, Thunder King, Jizukiru, Gadarla, Dogoran at 2800 to 3300 ATK) established by Kaiju Special Summons that tribute an opponent monster onto the opponent's side.; Eyes Restrict and Relinquished equip-based boards (Millennium-Eyes Restrict, Relinquished Anima) that take over opponent monsters.
• Turn 1 (going first): Without an opponent monster there is no Kaiju tribute-summon, so going first relies on Kinka-byo, Millennium-Eyes Illusionist, Nightmare Apprentice or the Ritual/Fusion searchers to build a first board, with hand traps held for the opponent's turn.
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Effect Veiler, Battle Fader, Maxx C, Tragoedia) interrupt the opponent's first play, then Kaiju Special Summons tribute the opponent's monster and come down as the board.
• Recovery: Recovery depends on Kyoutou Waterfront, Interrupted Kaiju Slumber, Pre-Preparation of Rites and Preparation of Rites to re-find Kaiju or Ritual pieces, plus Kinka-byo's graveyard recursion.
• After siding: No side deck is registered, so there is no post-side plan; the evidence does not allow any post-side claim.

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a system of two partly conflicting engines: the Kaiju tribute-summon package (23 exact Kaiju copies, roughly 36 percent exact-name purity) and an Eyes Restrict and Relinquished equip package (about 15 copies). Its opening-hand consistency is weak: the 3-copy starters have about a 23 percent chance of appearing in a 5-card opening hand, and Kaiju summons are dead without an opponent monster, so going first is the main weakness. Interaction is the strongest part of the build, with six hand traps, Harpie's Feather Duster, Monster Reborn and several negation effects on the Kaiju bodies, and the Kaiju bodies themselves carry high ATK. Combo evidence is absent, so the ceiling and median are inferred from card text only, and the deck has no side deck, which caps its post-side adaptability. Popularity and usage data were not credited, since the only core card reported is Harpie's Feather Duster and no tournament share exists; the score was built on the whole deck and not by averaging card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 42, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: Engine conflict (-4); No side deck (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional; Structural is meta-neutral with D13 dropped and weights renormalised over the remaining 95)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.23 · 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

• Interaction density: six hand traps plus Harpie's Feather Duster, Monster Reborn and Kaiju negation effects
• Strong ATK bodies (2800 to 3300) once a Kaiju is summoned
• Redundant searchers and recursion (Kinka-byo, Kyoutou Waterfront, Interrupted Kaiju Slumber, ritual searchers)

Weaknesses

• Going-first dead draws: Kaiju summons need an opponent monster
• Two engines compete for the same turns and the same hand space
• No side deck and only 4 Extra Deck cards

Critical choke points

• Opponent having no monster on the field blocks every Kaiju tribute-summon
• Limited single-copy staples (Harpie's Feather Duster, Maxx C, Monster Reborn, Pre-Preparation of Rites) cannot be replaced with more copies

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal in OCG with 60 main, 4 extra, 0 side; Copy histogram 14 three-copies and 18 singles; Restricted cards all within legal copy counts; Hypergeometric draw odds recomputed and matched
• Inferred: Going-first dead-draw rate from Kaiju summon requirements; Interaction density scored from card text; Ceiling and median from text only, no recorded boards
• Provisional: Meta and matchup fit (D13); Tournament reliability
• Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent No side deck, so post-side performance is unknown No win-rate telemetry; going-first/second and matchup rates are Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
