Odion Deck #773434 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 58/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Control
• Secondary strategies: Midrange, Toolbox
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 41 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Stick Synchro/Fusion threats (Chaos Angel 3500, Baronne de Fleur 3000, Draco Berserker 3000, Swordsoul Supreme Sovereign 3000) after the trap and hand-trap layer has answered the opponent's plays (Inferred); Fallen of Albaz routes into Titaniklad and Albion, plus Apophis monsters from the Extra Deck (Inferred from card text)
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a searcher or Apophis/Temple line (Man with the Mark, Primite Lordly Lode, Apophis the Serpent, Treasures of the Kings) and Set interaction behind it, then Synchro or Fusion Summon once the board is clear (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold 10 hand-trap copies to answer the opponent's first Special Summon or effect, then rebuild with searcher text and Extra Deck summons (Inferred)
• Recovery: Use Apophis Traps and Temple of the Kings recursion from the GY and Lordly Lode to rebuild lost cards (Inferred)
• After siding: None. The deck runs 0 side cards and standard Master Duel play has no side swap, so there is no post-side adjustment (Inferred)

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a live starter: the archetype-core group has P(at least one in a 5-card hand) ≈ 0.996 and the searcher-text group ≈ 0.84, so the engine is accessible on most openings. Its strongest scoring area is interaction on the system, not on any single card: 10 hand-trap copies give about 0.84 going-second access, and 16 negation-text and 16 removal-text cards layer answers through the Trap zone and the Extra Deck. The score is held back by the absence of recorded boards, so the combo ceiling and median are text-only inference, and by the lack of a side deck, which leaves no post-side plan. Popularity did not earn points: the archetype usage stats only confirm that the list follows the standard core (52% of listed core cards present, 3 of 9 three-of slots run above the typical count), and the score was not built by averaging card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Control (D13 dropped and renormalised over the remaining 93 weight points, meta-neutral). Structural ≈ 61.2, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 67, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 55. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-1); hard_garnet_burden (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional; Structural 61.2 meta-neutral with D13 dropped) = 0.80*61.2 + 0.20*55 - 2 = 58

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ — · 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

• Archetype-core access is near-certain in the opening hand (P ≈ 0.996).
• Layered interaction: 10 hand-trap copies plus 16 negation-text and 16 removal-text cards.
• Extra Deck carries several 3000+ ATK threats with varied summon routes (Synchro, Fusion, Link, XYZ).
• Composition is verified legal, with no copy-limit or size violations.

Weaknesses

• No side deck, so there is no adaptation plan.
• Conditional Dominus traps are weak without an opponent board.
• No recorded boards, so the combo ceiling and median cannot be checked.
• Several core cards from the archetype usage list are absent (Anubis the Last Judge 85%, the Solemn trio 70% each, Super Starslayer TY-PHON 95%).

Critical choke points

• Searcher and Apophis starter access depends on Man with the Mark (1 copy) and the Temple of the Kings chain; a missed Man with the Mark cuts route redundancy.
• Heavy reliance on Trap-zone interaction; a set-up turn spent on Setting traps can leave the board unpressured.

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal under BanMasterDuel with 41 Main, 15 Extra and 0 Side cards (size bounds 40–60, 0–15, 0–15).; Restricted cards are within legal copies: Maxx C 1 (Limited), The Fallen & The Virtuous 2 and Treasures of the Kings 2 (Semi-Limited).; Archetype-core usage list: 13 of 25 listed core cards present; Super Starslayer TY-PHON and Anubis the Last Judge absent.; Composition counts: 19 monsters, 14 traps, 8 spells in Main; 15 single-copy Extra Deck cards.
• Inferred: Consistency: P(≥1 archetype-core card in 5 cards) ≈ 0.996 and searcher group ≈ 0.84 from the hypergeometric estimates.; Interaction density is high from 16 negation-text and 16 removal-text cards, read from card text.; Hand-trap access on going-second ≈ 0.84 from the 10-copy group estimate.; Strategy is Control, from the interaction-heavy Trap composition and the Synchro/Fusion Extra Deck.; Conditional Dominus traps add dead-draw risk on openings without an opponent board.
• Provisional: Meta Power is null; no dated metagame sample exists.; Matchup fit (D13) and tournament reliability are provisional without tournament or meta data.
• 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 are absent. No win-rate telemetry: going-first/second, matchup, brick and starter rates are Inferred or Unknown. Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied. The archetype label 'Odion' has 0% exact-name purity: the card pool reads as Dominus, Apophis, Temple of the Kings and Primite, so the archetype label and usage-stat mapping should be verified. Card text for Solemn Strike, Anubis the Last Judge and Super Starslayer TY-PHON is not in the evidence excerpts; the recommendations rely on usage stats alone.
