DoomZ Deck #773629 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 63/100 (±7 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Stun, Tempo
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 42 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Xyz Summon a DoomZ or Power Patron boss (Drastea, Jupiter, Vidolium route) and convert the board with ATK pressure; Negation-backed board control through Drastea-style effects and Varudras-class negation on the Extra Deck
• Turn 1 (going first): Search through Power Patron DoomZ, Medius or DoomZ V/VII to reach a Level 4 or Level 8 Xyz starter, keeping hand traps up for the opponent's first activation
• Turn 2 (going second): Use a hand trap (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Droll and Lock Bird, Maxx C) to break the opponent's first board, then Xyz through the surviving DoomZ material
• Recovery: Use searchers and Mulcharmy draw effects to rebuild after a removal or negation, then re-enter the Xyz route
• After siding: Not scorable: the deck runs no side deck (side count 0)

Why it scores here

The deck opens a functional DoomZ or Power Patron engine in most hands: about 95% of opening 5-card hands contain at least one searcher-text card, and the multi-copy engine pieces (3 copies of several key starters) keep the Xyz line reachable on turn 1 (Inferred from hypergeometric estimates). It converts that engine into pressure through a 13-Xyz Extra Deck with high ATK ends such as Vidolium, Jupiter and Drastea, and it survives disruption through seven hand-trap-class cards plus several recovery routes (searchers, Mulcharmy draw effects, Ecclesia-linked sub-engines). Its going-second hand-trap coverage (about 69% of 6-card hands) and removal/negation density support the board-breaking and end-board scores. The score is held back by the absence of recorded boards, tournament data and a side deck, and by roughly 60% off-exact-archetype copies that dilute the engine. Popularity and usage-stat presence did not earn points; no card scores were averaged or summed into the deck score.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange primary with Stun secondary for hand-trap and negation weighting; Stun not separately applied in the arithmetic. Structural ≈ 63, Going First ≈ 66, Going Second ≈ 62, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 60. Modifiers: engine redundancy (2); banlist exposure (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional): 0.80*63 + 0.20*60 + 1 = 63.4 -> 63

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.95 · 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

• Engine redundancy: 18 searcher-text cards give about 95% P(>=1 in opening 5) (Inferred)
• Seven hand-trap-class cards give about 69% P(>=1) in a going-second 6-card hand (Inferred)
• Dense removal and negation text (24 and 5 cards) supports end-board interaction (Inferred)
• Extra Deck ceilings (Vidolium 5000 ATK, Jupiter 3500 ATK, Drastea 2400 ATK) give strong closing options (Verified stats)

Weaknesses

• No recorded boards, so the combo ceiling and median are unmeasured (Provisional)
• Hand traps are dead on going-first without opponent action (Inferred)
• Off-archetype dilution: exact-name purity 40.4%, including Mulcharmy draw cards that do not progress the Xyz line (Verified counts, Inferred effect)
• No side deck, so there is no post-side adaptation (Verified count)
• Several Limited and Semi-Limited cards are exposed to future list changes (Verified status)

Critical choke points

• The searcher-to-Xyz chain (Power Patron DoomZ, Medius, DoomZ V/VII) must produce a Level 4 or Level 8 starter; if the searcher is hit by a hand trap or removal, the line stalls (Inferred)
• The Extra Deck Xyz pieces (Drastea, Jupiter, Drastrius) depend on DoomZ or Power Patron material; with 1-2 copies each, a dead board can leave them unsummonable (Inferred)

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal status with 42 main, 15 extra and 0 side cards inside the master-duel size rules; Copy counts and banlist statuses for all listed cards; Core-card inclusion stats for the DoomZ archetype (usage statistics)
• Inferred: P(>=1 searcher-text card in opening 5) about 0.95; P(>=1 hand trap in going-second 6-card hand) about 0.69; Negation and removal density from card text; Going-first and going-second scores derived from the dimensions
• Provisional: Meta power (null, no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit (D13 held at 50); Post-side plan (D12 held at 40)
• Data gaps: No combos supplied (total combos 0): combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record are absent No win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchup, brick or OTK rates Usage statistics in this deck flags conflict with the cards list for Extra Deck cards (Break, XIII Over, Jupiter, End/Drastrius, Sargas, Springans, Varudras are marked not in deck but appear in cards with copies 1 to 2); the cards list was trusted, and the 7 missing core cards entries were not treated as missing cards Deck title is null; archetype is taken from the evidence archetype field Guide snippets are unverified fan text and were used only as a directional hint Meta power is provisional without a dated metagame sample
