• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox
• Format: rush-duel-sevens

Legality

Main 33 / Extra 0 / Side 0 — status: Legal with warning.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Per the guide snippet: Machine LIGHT monsters are Summoned, renamed to Gradius or Gradius' Option, then combined through Contact Fusion. The exact payoff cards cannot be confirmed because their text did not resolve.; Not established by the evidence.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a starter from the 3-copy spam monsters, then spend the turn on the rename and combine line described in the guide. Turn-1 steps are unverified because no card text resolved.
• Turn 2 (going second): Not established by the evidence. No recorded board or interaction data exists, and no hand-trap or removal flags resolved.
• Recovery: Unknown. The 9 three-copy cards and the duplicated copies suggest redundancy, but recursion or float text did not resolve.
• After siding: Not applicable. The deck runs no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan.

Why it scores here

The deck is a compact 33-card Rush Duel list built from 14 distinct cards, with nine cards at three copies, so its engine has redundancy and a 0.40 chance of at least one 3-copy card in the opening five. The guide describes a spam-rename-combine line that makes the deck a Combo shell, but no recorded board exists, so the ceiling and median are text-only inferences. Interaction is weak in the evidence: no hand traps, removal, or floodgates resolved, and the deck has no Side Deck, which lowers adaptability. Popularity and archetype usage do not earn points here; the 100% core-card presence confirms the list is real, not strong. The score is the Combo-profile weighted sum of the 14 dimensions plus a context modifier, not an average of card scores, and the low confidence comes from the unresolved passcodes.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 40, Going First ≈ 38, Going Second ≈ 33, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: unresolved card text (-3). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers = 0.80*39.65 + 0.20*45 - 3 = 37.7, rounded to 38 (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ — · 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

• 14 distinct cards in 33 main cards give a compact, coherent list
• Nine cards at 3 copies raise the chance that an engine starter is present in the opening hand
• All 13 usage-core cards are present, so the list follows the archetype-standard core

Weaknesses

• No card text resolved, so starters, payoffs, and interaction cannot be verified
• No recorded boards, so the combo ceiling and median are text-only
• No hand traps, removal, or floodgates resolved, leaving interaction weak
• No Side Deck, so post-side adaptability is absent

Critical choke points

• Dependence on the 3-copy spam monsters as the engine starters, with no verified second route
• The four 1-copy cards and the single 2-copy card may be non-redundant pieces if they are payoffs

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal size 33 within the 30-60 Rush Duel main range, with no copy violations; Usage-core cards are 100% present in this deck; Copy histogram: 9 cards x3, 1 x2, 4 x1
• Observed: Guide snippet describes a spam, rename, and Contact Fusion line (narrative, not recorded board data)
• Inferred: 0.40 probability of at least one 3-copy card in the opening 5; Interaction is weak, based on absent role flags; Pilotability is moderate, based on the described multi-step line
• Provisional: Meta and matchup fit, with no dated metagame sample or tournament link
• Data gaps: 14 passcodes in CardIDList did not resolve to a card and were counted as main deck No combos supplied, so combo floor, median, and ceiling are text-only No tournament link, so meta-share and per-pilot records are absent No win-rate telemetry exists, so going-first, going-second, and matchup signals are Inferred or Unknown Archetype detection is generic; the archetype core group figure is unreliable Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
