Dominus Deck #773465 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Stun, Midrange
• Format: tcg

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro pressure from Angelechy Shatranga, Bastion, Destrier and Castellan, plus single-copy 3000+ ATK Synchros (Chaos Angel, Centur-Ion Legatia, Masterflare Hyperion, Angelechy Seneschal); Angelechy Continuous Spell chains that banish opposing monsters and Spell/Trap cards to clear the board
• Turn 1 (going first): Open Angelechy Problem, Strategy Score or Opposition (3 copies each) to Special Summon a Level 2 or 7 Angelechy Synchro from the Extra Deck, then extend with Opening to e4 and the Continuous Spell chain
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit, Dominus Impulse and Dominus Purge to stop the opponent's first interaction or summon, then rebuild the Angelechy line on the following turn
• Recovery: Pot of Sloth and Pot of Desires draw cards, Strategy Score and Angelechy Disturbance recur from the GY and banish, and Foolish Burial Goods rebuilds the Spell/Trap pool
• After siding: Not available: the deck has no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck is Illegal: three cards (Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring, Foolish Burial Goods, Dominus Impulse) run 3 copies against a Semi-Limited limit of 2, so it receives a capped, structural-only score rather than a normal final score. Structurally, the Angelechy starters (Problem, Strategy Score, Opposition, Opening to e4; 12 copies across four cards) give about a 72% chance of at least one starter in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred), and the 15-card Synchro Extra Deck gives strong closing bodies and removal. Hand traps and negation (Ash, Ghost Ogre, Droll & Lock Bird, Dominus Impulse, Dominus Purge, Angelechy Verdict) raise the value of going second and interaction density. The score comes from consistency, median output and interaction across the whole system, not from averaging individual card scores, and not from Dominus or Angelechy being popular archetypes: archetype usage statistics confirm that the list is real, but they did not add points. Floor and median are unmeasured because no combos were supplied, and the deck has no side deck, so post-side adaptability is effectively zero.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 58, Going First ≈ 56, Going Second ≈ 63, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-6); no side deck (-4); engine conflicts (-2). Final formula: Uncapped: 0.80*Structural(58) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) = 55, then modifiers (-12) = 43; Illegal cap applied, so the reported score is 30 (theoretical / structural-only)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.72 · 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

• Four Angelechy starter cards at three copies each give a real opening-hand chance
• Seven hand traps and about eleven negation effects give layered interaction on both turns
• Synchro Extra Deck covers 2500 to 3500 ATK bodies with removal on several of them
• Five draw effects (Pots, Mulcharmy Fuwalos) help recover resources

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: three cards over the Semi-Limited copy limit
• 42 of 55 main cards are non-monsters, leaving only 13 monsters to summon with
• No side deck, so there is no best-of-3 adjustment
• Ash Blossom and Ghost Ogre are Tuners that also act as hand traps, so using them can break Synchro lines
• Dominus, the deck's named archetype, is only 8.6% of the list; the engine is mostly Angelechy

Critical choke points

• Every Angelechy line needs a Level 2 or 7 Angelechy Extra Deck monster plus a Tuner, and the Tuner pool is small
• Hand-trap discards can remove the Tuner needed for the Synchro Summon
• Angelechy Opening to e4 is the only starter that works from hand on the opponent's first Standby Phase

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: 55 main, 15 extra, 0 side; three cards over the Semi-Limited copy limit; Banlist statuses: Droll & Lock Bird and Terraforming are Limited at 1 copy each; Ash Blossom, Foolish Burial Goods and Dominus Impulse are Semi-Limited; Composition counts and Extra Deck breakdown (15 Synchro); Angelechy card count of 26 and exact Dominus name purity of 8.6%
• Inferred: Opening-hand starter probability of about 0.72 going first and 0.79 going second; Interaction and closing-power dimension reads from card text; Structural score of 58 with the Combo profile
• Provisional: Meta power and matchup fit (no dated meta sample); Tournament reliability (no tournament link); Floor and median output (no combos supplied)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry for brick, starter or going-first/second rates Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample Side Deck is empty, so post-side plans cannot be assessed Deck has no title (null)
