Legality
Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).
Identity & game plan
- Win condition: Salamangreat Link Monsters (Raging Phoenix and Pyro Phoenix, both ATK 2800) converting board advantage into lethal damage; Salamangreat Miragestallio (Xyz) and Jack Jaguar piercing damage as follow-up pressure
- Turn 1 (going first): Open with Salamangreat Gazelle, Circle, Cynet Mining or Foxy to reach a searched Salamangreat starter, then Link Summon into a Phoenix while holding hand traps for the opponent's first response
- Turn 2 (going second): Use the six-card hand's hand traps (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Droll and Lock Bird, Ghost Ogre and Snow Rabbit) to break the opponent's first Summon, then rebuild through Salamangreat Link Monsters
- Recovery: Recover through GY-triggered Special Summons (Gazelle, Weasel, Jack Jaguar, Will of the Salamangreat) and the Link-material recursion text on the Phoenixes
- After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs zero side-deck cards, so there is no post-side plan
Why it scores here
This list is Illegal (Triple Tactics Talent is Forbidden in OCG and is run once), so it is capped at 25 and the score is theoretical and structural-only. Its engine is reliable on paper: the 19-copy Salamangreat core gives an estimated 97% chance of at least one core card in a five-card opening hand (Inferred), and the Link Monsters provide two 2800-ATK finishers plus recursion. Interaction is dense, with nine hand traps, Forbidden Crown, Salamangreat Roar and Salamangreat Rage, so the deck can contest the opponent's first turn. The score does not come from Salamangreat being a popular archetype, and it does not come from averaging card scores; the deck is scored as a system. Floor and median output are unmeasured because no recorded boards exist, and the deck has no side deck and no meta data, which pulls confidence and tournament reliability down.
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | Engine Accessibility & Consistency | 60 | P(at least one core Salamangreat card in a 5-card opening hand) is about 0.97 from the archetype core group, and the 3-copy starters Gazelle, Circle and Cynet Mining add redundancy (Inferred) |
| D2 | Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management | 55 | 19 core copies and 9 hand traps give a low dead-hand rate, but 14 one-of slots and conflicting Normal Summon and Effect-monster needs add some brick risk (Inferred) |
| D3 | Combo Conversion & Ceiling | 45 | No parseable boards, so ceiling conversion rests on card text: two 2800-ATK Phoenix Links with Link-material recursion (Inferred) |
| D4 | Combo Floor & Median Output | 40 | No recorded combos exist, so the median output is unmeasured and only text-based inference is available (Provisional) |
| D5 | Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy | 60 | Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Ghost Ogre and Droll and Lock Bird provide several independent answers, and the GY recursion text provides re-entry routes (Inferred) |
| D6 | Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind | 50 | Recursion from the GY (Gazelle, Weasel, Jack Jaguar) and the float-style search text are present, but no resource telemetry exists (Inferred) |
| D7 | End-Board & Interaction Quality | 60 | Forbidden Crown, Salamangreat Roar and Rage plus nine hand traps provide layered interaction on a board, with Pyro Phoenix adding mass removal text (Inferred) |
| D8 | Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power | 55 | Going-second value comes from hand traps and the Link engine; no going-second split is observable (Inferred) |
| D9 | Offensive Pressure & Closing Power | 62 | Two 2800-ATK Phoenix Links and Miragestallio set up lethal pressure, with Jack Jaguar adding piercing damage (Verified text, Inferred conversion) |
| D10 | Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility | 55 | 40 main cards with 24 distinct names; 14 one-ofs and 6 three-ofs keep the core dense, and the 29 exact-name Salamangreat copies sit against 26 off-archetype copies (Verified) |
| D11 | Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage | 60 | Extra Deck has 15 cards: 13 Link, 1 Synchro, 1 Xyz, all bearing on the Salamangreat engine (Verified) |
| D12 | Side Deck Adaptability | 10 | Side deck is empty (0 of 15 slots), so there is no sideboard adaptability at all (Verified) |
| D13 | Matchup Coverage & Format Fit | 40 | No dated metagame sample or tournament link exists; archetype meta-share is unavailable (Provisional) |
| D14 | Pilotability & Error Tolerance | 55 | The engine needs multi-step Link Summon and material-tracking sequences, with several optional GY triggers, so the decision load is moderate-high (Inferred) |
How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 52, Going First ≈ 55, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 42. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-6); no side deck (-4). Final formula: Theoretical 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability = 50 with Meta provisional; context modifiers total -10 (40); capped at 25 because the list is Illegal, so no normal Final score is issued
Probability & combo summary
- Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.97 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.03 (all Inferred)
- Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
- Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines
Strengths
- Large Salamangreat core (19 copies) with high opening-hand access
- Two 2800-ATK Link finishers with recursion text
- Dense interaction: nine hand traps plus Forbidden Crown, Roar and Rage
Weaknesses
- Illegal list: Triple Tactics Talent is Forbidden and is run once
- No side deck, so no best-of-3 adaptation
- No recorded combos or meta data, so the floor and median are unmeasured
Critical choke points
- Salamangreat Link Summon sequence: an opponent who negates the first Link or removes the material breaks the line unless recursion is available
- Hand-trap density (9) competes with starter density for the same hand slots
Recommended changes
| Priority | Remove | Add | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Triple Tactics Talent | One legal card of the player's choice (for example a Salamangreat-support or staple card) | This is the only copy-limit violation; removing it makes the list legal and allows a normal Final score to be issued on re-evaluation |
| 2 | None (side deck is empty) | A 15-card side deck with hand-trap and floodgate answers for the common matchups | Without a side deck the score cannot reflect post-side adaptability (D12 is 10) |
Evidence & confidence
- Verified: Illegal status: Triple Tactics Talent is Forbidden in OCG and is run 1 copy; Main 40 and Extra 15 are within the OCG size rules; Side 0 is legal; Card text for Phoenixes, hand traps and Forbidden Crown; Archetype purity 52.7% exact-name, 19-copy core group
- Inferred: 97% at-least-one-core opening-hand estimate; Interaction density and resilience scores; Going-first and going-second estimates
- Provisional: Meta Power is null; matchup and format fit are provisional; Tournament reliability is provisional without a tournament link
- Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link, so archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record are absent No win-rate telemetry in YGOVN (going-first, going-second, matchup, brick, starter, OTK rates) No side deck, so post-side performance cannot be assessed Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample
