Radiant Typhoon Deck #773543 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 60/100 (±7 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Quick-Play chains that Special Summon Radiant Typhoon monsters and Fonix / Shiina / Enterblathnir / Hraesvelgr to pressure with 2400-3000 ATK bodies; Link and Xyz boards (Varuroon Marine, Greatfly, Enterblathnir) that stack monsters and banish or negate the opponent's resources
• Turn 1 (going first): Open MST, Ash Blossom, Krosea or Swen; use a Quick-Play to Special Summon Krosea, Fonix or Varuroon Vibrant and extend into a link or Xyz board while holding Ash or Droll
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Maxx C, Shiina and Forbidden Droplet / Forbidden Crown to answer the opponent's first summon, then convert the surviving resources into a Quick-Play-driven board
• Recovery: Recover through Radiant Typhoon Eldam, Swen, Chant or Mandate searches and Fuwalos / Vision draws, plus Greatfly or Number 75 to rebuild from the graveyard
• After siding: Not applicable: Master Duel is a single game with 0 side cards, so no post-side plan is evaluated

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens into multiple independent Radiant Typhoon starters: three copies each of Mystical Space Typhoon, Ash Blossom and Krosea plus three Swen, which is what keeps the engine live rather than any one card's score. Its conversion comes from Quick-Play chains that Special Summon 2400 to 3000 ATK bodies and Link or Xyz boards, and the combo output is inferred from card text because no recorded boards exist. Interaction is the strongest part of the system: Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Maxx C, Forbidden Droplet, Forbidden Crown and Varuroon Vibrant give layered answers on both turns. Popularity and archetype usage stats confirm the list is a real, accessible build but earn no points on their own, and card scores were not averaged into the result. The score is held down by the absence of combo, win-rate and meta data, the single-copy Limited cards, and dependence on Mystical Space Typhoon as a choke point.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 65, Going First ≈ 66, Going Second ≈ 74, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 60. Modifiers: Unrecoverable choke point (-2); Banlist exposure (-1); Engine conflicts (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) + ContextModifiers = 0.80*65.3 + 0.20*60 - 4 = 60.2

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.34 · 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

• Layered interaction across both turns: Ash, Droll, Maxx C, Droplet, Crown, Varuroon Vibrant and Totem Bird
• Multiple independent starters and from-hand summons that keep the engine alive after disruption
• Strong closing bodies: Fonix 3000 ATK, Shiina 2900, Enterblathnir 2900, Hraesvelgr 2400
• Legal in format with all restricted cards at or under the legal copy limit

Weaknesses

• No recorded combo, win-rate or matchup data, so most conversion and meta claims are inferred
• Heavy reliance on Mystical Space Typhoon as the engine trigger
• Six hand traps and conditional Quick-Play cards raise brick risk in some openers
• 36 of 55 copies are off the exact archetype name, so the engine is less cohesive than the name suggests

Critical choke points

• Mystical Space Typhoon: three copies drive Special Summons, negation and recovery, with P(at least one in an opener) about 0.34
• Quick-Play activation windows: Krosea, Swen, Fonix and Varuroon Vibrant depend on opponent-independent Quick-Play spells being available

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal status, 40/15/0 size, and all restricted copy counts within legal limits; Card text and stats for all 55 cards; Usage statistics showing Ash Blossom, Krosea, Swen and Chant as core cards
• Inferred: Engine access and brick estimates from hypergeometric draws and text roles; Interaction quality and going-second strength from card text; Floor and ceiling estimates without recorded boards
• Provisional: Median output, given no recorded boards; Format fit and matchup coverage, given no dated meta sample; Tournament reliability, given no tournament link or win-rate telemetry
• 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 for going-first, going-second, matchup, brick or starter rates Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample no card-level usage beyond the archetype usage rows; the 0.9998 archetype-core probability is a broad-group artifact
