Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Level 10 Sacred Beast Special Summons (Chaotic Phantasmal Sacred Beasts, Calamity Hamon, Infinity Raviel, Inferno Uria) into 4000-5000 ATK boards; Xyz boards from Gustav Rocket / Gustav Max and Galaxy-Eyes Photon Lord
• Turn 1 (going first): Sacred Beasts Thunderclap or Sacred Beasts Released to search Level 10 Sacred Beasts, with Summoner or Martyr as the Special Summon enablers
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Droll & Lock Bird, Nibiru) to disrupt, then a Level 10 Sacred Beast summon

• After siding: Not available: the deck has no Side Deck

Why it scores here

The list is Illegal in TCG as submitted: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring runs 3 copies against a Semi-Limited limit of 2, and the Extra Deck holds 20 cards against a 15-card maximum, so the score is capped at 30 and this evaluation is theoretical/structural only. Structurally, the Sacred Beast/Phantasm core (25 Phantasm-named copies plus Thunderclap, Released, Martyr and Card of the Soul at 3 copies each) gives a reliable starter route, and 18 of the 25 usage-standard cards are present (Verified usage, Inferred consistency). Interaction is dense for a non-Stun list, with 8 hand traps, 24 removal-text and 8 negation-text cards, and the 4000-5000 ATK Level 10 Sacred Beasts provide closing power. The score was built on the system (consistency, interaction, closing, and the main-deck and Extra-Deck constraints); it was not an average of card scores, and archetype popularity earned no points beyond confirming the core is real. The main weaknesses are a 53-card main with several unrelated engines (Ars Magna/Power Patron, Train, Galaxy-Eyes, Artmage, Medius, Code Talker), no Side Deck, and no combo or tournament data to confirm a floor or median.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 60, Going First ≈ 62, Going Second ≈ 64, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 50. Modifiers: engine conflicts (-4); banlist exposure (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers = 0.80*60 + 0.20*50 - 6 = 52; capped to 30 because the list is Illegal (rubric Step 2, theoretical/structural only). Meta Power is null (provisional).

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.98 · 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 package for a Sacred Beast list: 8 hand traps and 24 removal-text cards
• Closing power from 4000-5000 ATK Level 10 Sacred Beasts and Chaotic Phantasmal (Verified stats)
• Archetype core present in 18 of 25 usage-standard cards (Verified usage)

Weaknesses

• Illegal as submitted: Ash Blossom over its limit and Extra Deck at 20 against a 15 maximum
• Off-archetype bloat: exact-name purity 1.4%, with Phantasm 25 and generic 23 spread across Ars Magna, Power Patron, Train, Galaxy-Eyes, Artmage and Medius
• No Side Deck
• No combo or tournament evidence to confirm floor, median or matchup performance

Critical choke points

• Level 10 Sacred Beast Special Summons need a Sacred Beast card effect or a Sacred Beast on the field; Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre or Droll disrupting the starter can stall the line (Inferred)
• An Extra Deck of 20 means a summon route can stall when Galaxy, Link or Xyz pieces are drawn without the Phantasm starter (Inferred)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Ash Blossom over copy limit (3 run vs 2 legal); Extra Deck 20 vs 15 maximum; Card text and stats for all listed cards; Usage-core presence 18 of 25
• Inferred: Starter consistency from hypergeometric odds (0.2617 per 3-copy card; 0.9771 searcher group); Interaction density from removal and negation text; Engine coherence and brick risk from composition; Going-first and going-second estimates
• Provisional: Median and floor (no boards); Matchup and format fit (no tournament or meta sample); Side-deck adaptability (no side deck)
• 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: going-first, going-second, matchup, starter and brick rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck title is null No Side Deck, so post-side performance cannot be assessed
