Blue-Eyes Deck #773411 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 57/100 (±6 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Stun
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 50 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro, Fusion and Link bosses (Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit Dragon, Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon, Cosmic Blazar Dragon) reached by searching Blue-Eyes White Dragon and its support spells; Attrition through repeated negations and removal from hand traps (18 hand-trap copies) and Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon / Blue-Eyes Spirit Dragon recursion
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon a searcher (Sage with Eyes of Blue, Primite Dragon Ether Beryl, Wishes for Eyes of Blue, Primite Lordly Lode, Bingo Machine) and build toward a Blue-Eyes boss, holding Infinite Impermanence, Ash Blossom and Effect Veiler for the opponent's first activation
• Turn 2 (going second): Open on hand-trap density (P of at least one hand trap in a 6-card hand is about 0.94) to negate the opponent's starter, then rebuild through the searcher package into an Extra Deck boss
• Recovery: Blue-Eyes Spirit and Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon recursion from the GY, Mausoleum of White and Crimson Dragon searches, and Droll and Lock Bird to slow the opponent's draw
• After siding: No side deck in Master Duel (Side Deck size 0); post-side adaptation is not available in this format

Why it scores here

The deck opens a live plan reliably through its searcher package: P(at least one searcher in a 5-card opening hand) is about 0.82 and P(at least one Blue-Eyes-named card) is about 0.97, though only 2 copies of Blue-Eyes White Dragon make the three-material Fusion and Tyrant lines a real bottleneck (Inferred). Interaction is the system's strongest trait: 14 negation-text and 15 removal-text cards, with 18 hand traps, give it layered answers on both turns, which drives the Stun-leaning secondary read and the going-second score. Conversion is scored from card text only because the export contains no parseable recorded boards, so the ceiling (Neo Blue-Eyes at 4500 ATK, Ultimate Spirit at 3500) is credited as potential rather than observed output, and the median is held at a neutral value. The 57 comes from the system: consistency, interaction density and closing power, reduced for the off-archetype Primite and Dominus splash (exact archetype purity 23.1%) and the single-point dependence on 2 copies of Blue-Eyes White Dragon. Popularity and usage statistics confirmed the list is real, but they did not add points, and no card scores were averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary (about 80%) with Stun secondary (about 20%); applied as the Midrange weight profile. Structural ≈ 62, Going First ≈ 62, Going Second ≈ 67, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 60. Modifiers: Unrecoverable BEWD choke point (-3); Off-archetype engine conflict (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional, null); 0.80*62.48 + 0.20*60 = 61.98, then -5 modifiers = 56.98, rounded to 57

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.82 · 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: 18 hand traps and 14 negation-text cards cover both turns
• Strong closing bosses (Ultimate Spirit 3500 ATK, Neo Blue-Eyes 4500 ATK, Cosmic Blazar 4000 ATK)
• Searcher package (14 searcher-text cards) gives a high chance of a live opener
• Strong going-second hand-trap probability (about 0.94 in a 6-card hand)

Weaknesses

• Only 2 copies of Blue-Eyes White Dragon against a three-BEWD Fusion requirement
• Off-archetype Primite and Dominus splash (exact purity 23.1%)
• No recorded combo or win-rate evidence; ceiling and median are text-inferred
• No side deck in Master Duel, so no post-side adaptation

Critical choke points

• Blue-Eyes White Dragon count (2 copies) gates the Fusion and Tyrant lines
• Searcher access to the Blue-Eyes boss (the searcher package must reach a Blue-Eyes monster)
• Hand-trap-only openers can stall without a Blue-Eyes boss follow-up

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 50 / Extra 15 / Side 0 within Master Duel size rules (40-60 main, 0-15 extra); Maxx C runs 1 copy against a Limited limit of 1; Droll and Lock Bird runs 2 copies against a Semi-Limited limit of 2; Copy histogram 1x8, 2x6, 3x10; Extra Deck split 9 Synchro, 3 Fusion, 3 Link; Card text for Blue-Eyes White Dragon boss lines (Neo Blue-Eyes lists three BEWD as materials); Usage statistics show Blue-Eyes is the dominant archetype core in this list
• Inferred: Starter and hand-trap probabilities from the hypergeometric table; Interaction density and negation coverage from card text; Going-first and going-second strength from hand-trap probability and boss density; Brick risk from off-archetype splash and BEWD dependence; Ceiling read from boss text and ATK values
• Provisional: Median output and floor (no recorded boards); Matchup and format fit (no tournament link or dated meta); Post-side score (no side deck in Master Duel); Meta Power (null)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN for this deck (going-first, going-second, matchup, brick or starter rates) Meta Power is provisional: no dated metagame sample supplied Usage statistics in this deck flags contradict the cards list for 6 cards: Crimson Dragon (1), Hieratic Seal of the Heavenly Spheres (1), Lightstorm Dragon (1), Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon (1), Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit Dragon (2), Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon (2) are all in cards[] but flagged in this deck=false. The stated core-card presence of 52% is therefore unreliable; corrected count is about 19 of 25 (76%). Scores here use cards[], not the usage flags Deck title is null; no name for display No side deck (Master Duel format), so post-side plan is not applicable
