DoomZ Deck #773622 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 54/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

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

Legality

Main 60 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Xyz pressure from DoomZ and Power Patron Xyz monsters (Drastrius, Graflareio, Jupiter, Vidolium) plus Ame no Murakumo as a high-ATK ritual finisher; Ritual and Mitsurugi board pressure through Ame no Murakumo and Ame no Habakiri, with Equip-based DoomZ Xyz support
• Turn 1 (going first): Open on a searcher (Onomatopaira, Mitsurugi no Mikoto or DoomZ V Five) to find a DoomZ starter, use Power Patron DoomZ or Dodododo Warrior to reach an Xyz, then build a board with Change or Raiders
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Ash Blossom, Effect Veiler or Maxx C for the opponent's first activation, then rebuild through the searcher-heavy engine into a DoomZ Xyz
• Recovery: Searcher density (33 of 60 cards) and Gagaga and Dododo GY revivals (Gogogoglove, Onomatokage) let the deck rebuild after a hand trap or board wipe
• After siding: Not applicable in Master Duel: the deck runs zero side cards and has no post-side adjustment

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a functional plan through its searcher density: 33 of 60 main-deck cards search or add cards, and the hypergeometric estimate gives about 0.98 for at least one searcher in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred). Starter access is less secure, since each individual DoomZ starter has only about 0.23 chance of appearing in a 5-card opening hand. The Xyz conversion layer (15 Extra Deck Xyz monsters with 8 distinct Xyz routes across DoomZ, Power Patron and Gagaga) and the high-ATK finishers (Vidolium, Jupiter, Ame no Murakumo) give real closing power, but the list is only 22.7 percent exact DoomZ by name, so its engines compete for the same slots. Interaction is broad (9 hand-trap and 9 negation-text cards plus 22 removal-text cards), which supports resilience and going-second play. Popularity and archetype usage did not earn points, and the score was not derived by averaging the card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 59.4, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 54. Modifiers: engine conflicts (-3); banlist exposure (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional) = 0.80*59.4 + 0.20*54 - 4 = 54.4

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.23 · 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

• Searcher density of 33 of 60 cards gives near-certain access to some engine piece in the opening hand
• Layered interaction: 9 hand traps, 9 negation-text cards and 22 removal-text cards
• High-ATK Xyz and ritual finishers (5000, 3500, 3200, 2700 ATK) with multiple Xyz routes
• Strong GY recovery through Gogogoglove, Onomatokage and Gagaga-family revivals

Weaknesses

• Only 22.7 percent exact DoomZ purity, so the engine is spread across several archetypes
• Mitsurugi ritual cards need Reptile tributes that the rest of the list does not reliably supply
• No sideboard in Master Duel, so no way to adapt to a matchup
• Starter probability per 3-copy card is low (0.23 in a 5-card hand), so the first turn depends on a searcher chain

Critical choke points

• Converting a searcher into a DoomZ starter and then an Xyz in one turn
• A single Limited Maxx C or Ash Blossom response can stall the plan if it is not backed by a second hand trap
• Ritual-based finishers (Ame no Murakumo) need the Mitsurugi tributes and Mitsurugi Ritual in the same hand

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal in Master Duel: 60 Main, 15 Extra, 0 Side, no copy-limit violations; Limited: Maxx C (1), Mitsurugi Prayers (1); Semi-Limited: Ame no Habakiri (2); Archetype purity 22.7 percent; 33 searcher-text cards; 9 hand traps; 22 removal-text cards; Usage stats show DoomZ core cards at 100 percent inclusion
• Inferred: Starter access and consistency from hypergeometric draw odds; Interaction and recovery quality from card text; Going-second hand-trap coverage 0.64
• Provisional: Meta Power (null), format fit and matchup coverage, since no dated sample or tournament link exists
• 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 and brick rates are Inferred or unknown Meta Power is Provisional without a dated metagame sample Data conflict: usage_statistics marks Gigantic Champion Sargas, Springans Merrymaker, DoomZ Break - Diactorus and Jupiter as not in this deck (in_this_deck false), but the cards list carries each as a 1-copy Extra Deck entry; the cards list was used because it agrees with the 15-card Extra count Master Duel has no side deck, so the post-side plan is absent by format rule, not by a gap in the evidence
