Elfnote Deck #773500 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 65/100 (±6 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 44 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro Summon high-ATK center-zone monsters (Junora, Star Eater, Kewl Tune B2B, Elfnote June Pride) and convert the board while Baronne de Fleur and Junora disrupt the opponent; Elfnote center-zone control: June Pride and Rhapsodia stop attacks that do not go through the center monster
• Turn 1 (going first): Summon a center-zone starter from hand (Lucina, Tinia, Regina or Fortuna), search Elfnote and Power Patron pieces, then Synchro through the Tuner pool into an Extra Deck boss
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold the 5 hand-trap copies (Ash, Maxx C, Ghost Belle) to break the opponent's starter, then rebuild through Medius and Power Patron recursion from the GY and a Synchro into a negating boss
• Recovery: Medius and Power Patron recurse from the GY via shuffle-and-Special-Summon effects; Welcome Home and the White Forest searchers refill the hand
• After siding: Not applicable: Master Duel has no side deck (side_count 0 and size rule [0,15]), so there is no post-side plan

Why it scores here

The deck opens a functional plan reliably: 10 three-copy starters give P(at least one in a 5-card opener) = 0.31 each, and the 28-copy archetype core has an estimated P(at least one in hand) of 0.996 (Inferred). It converts that plan into pressure through a 15-card all-Synchro Extra Deck with 3100 to 3500 ATK bosses and destruction and negation effects. It survives disruption through 5 hand-trap copies, Medius and Power Patron recursion from the GY, and 26 searcher-text copies, though it has no recorded boards to confirm this. The score comes from consistency, interaction and recovery on the system, not from Elfnote being a popular archetype and not from averaging individual card scores. Median output is unmeasured (no combo boards), so D4 is held near neutral and the score carries a wide band.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 68.8, Going First ≈ 72, Going Second ≈ 66, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 64. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-1); engine conflicts (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural(68.8) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(64) = 67.8; modifiers -3 => 64.8, rounded to 65 (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.31 · 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

• Ten three-copy starters give high opening-hand access (Inferred)
• Five hand-trap copies plus Medius and Power Patron recursion cover disruption (Inferred)
• Full 15-card Synchro Extra Deck with 3000+ ATK bosses and negation/destruction effects (Verified text)

Weaknesses

• No recorded boards, so median and floor output are unmeasured (Provisional)
• Exact archetype purity is only 35.6 percent; three engines share the Main Deck (Verified composition)
• High pilotability burden from multi-step center-zone Synchro sequencing (Inferred)

Critical choke points

• Center Main Monster Zone: most starters and the Elfnote lock depend on it, so a single removal or control effect on that zone stalls the plan (Inferred)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal in master-duel: 44 main and 15 extra cards within size rules; All five restricted cards run at or below legal_copies; Copy histogram 10 three-copy, 3 two-copy, 8 one-copy cards; Card text excerpts for all listed cards
• Observed: usage_statistics: Elfnotes Rhapsodia of Madness and Ash Blossom at 100 percent inclusion; Archetype core present at 18 of 24 by card list (usage in_this_deck flags are wrong for Extra Deck cards)
• Inferred: Hypergeometric starter, core and hand-trap probabilities; D1 through D14 scores and structural weights; Guide snippet: one-card combo potential, many hand traps and disruption (Vietnamese guide, strategic intent only)
• Provisional: Meta Power (null, no dated metagame sample); D12 side deck (no side deck in Master Duel); D13 matchup and format fit (no tournament link)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference usage_statistics in_this_deck flags are false for Extra Deck cards that the deck list contains (Elfnote June Pride, Elfnote Seraphim Strelitzia, Baronne de Fleur, Junora, Chaos Angel, F.A. Dawn Dragster); core_present_pct 50 is undercounted (18 of 24 by card list) No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick and starter rates) Meta Power provisional without a dated metagame sample No side deck exists in Master Duel, so D12 is a neutral placeholder
