World Legacy Deck #773710 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 32/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Stun, Toolbox
• Format: tcg

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Orcust-based board pressure: Orcust Harp Horror / Cymbal Skeleton / Knightmare recursion feeding Orcust Link and Xyz monsters (Galatea, Longirsu, Dingirsu) and World Legacy finishers.; Extra Deck beatdown from Link and Xyz monsters (Enlilgirsu, Zombie Vampire, Dark Paladin) once the board is established.
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a starter from the Orcust/Mekk-Knight core (Girsu, Harp Horror, Knightmare), search or recur a second Orcust body, and Link Summon into a board that protects itself with hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Skull Meister).
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit, Skull Meister, Droll & Lock Bird) and Solemn/Dominus interaction to break the opponent's turn-one play, then rebuild from the GY through Orcust recursion.
• Recovery: Recur Orcust monsters from the GY (Harp Horror, Cymbal Skeleton, Knightmare) and use Orcustrated Babel and Galatea-I to rebuild the Link line.
• After siding: Not evaluable: the export contains no Side Deck (0 cards), so there is no post-side plan.

Why it scores here

This list is illegal as submitted: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring and Dominus Impulse are each run three times against a TCG limit of two, so the result is structural-only and capped low rather than given a normal final score. The engine is reasonably accessible: the archetype core group has about a 98% chance of at least one piece in a 5-card opening hand (hypergeometric, Inferred), and the Orcust recursion monsters give it a second line through the GY. Interaction is the deck's strongest area, with 10 hand traps, 17 negation-text cards and 28 removal-text cards, which supports the end-board and going-second read. Scoring is held back by the absence of recorded boards, so the ceiling and median are text-only inference, and by the lack of a Side Deck, which leaves nothing for a post-side plan. Popularity did not earn points: the usage stats confirm the archetype is real, but the list shows only 2.9% exact World Legacy purity and mixes Orcust, Dominus, Mekk-Knight, Dark Magician and Shining Sarcophagus engines. The score comes from the system's consistency, interaction and Extra Deck coverage, not from averaging the individual card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 49, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: Engine conflicts (-4); No side deck (-4). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural(49) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) = 48.2, plus modifiers (-8) = 40, then capped to 32 because legality is Illegal (theoretical/structural-only, not a normal final score).

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.98 · 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

• Dense hand-trap and negation suite (10 hand traps, 17 negation-text cards) that answers summons and activations
• Orcust recursion gives a second line from the GY, so the engine does not depend on one opening starter
• Extra Deck covers Link, Xyz and Fusion routes with several bosses

Weaknesses

• Illegal as submitted: 3 copies each of Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring and Dominus Impulse against a limit of 2
• Three engine identities (Orcust, Dominus/Dark Magician, Mekk-Knight) dilute the core and lower purity to 2.9%
• No Side Deck, so there is no post-side adaptation
• No recorded boards, so the combo ceiling and median cannot be verified

Critical choke points

• Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring and Dominus Impulse must each drop to 2 copies before the list is legal
• Orcust Link monsters (Galatea, Longirsu, Galatea-I) are needed for the main Extra Deck route
• Orcust recursion monsters are the main rebuild route after a board is cleared

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Illegal, with copy-limit violations on Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring and Dominus Impulse (3 copies each, legal limit 2); Main 55, Extra 15, Side 0 counts; main and extra sizes are within the TCG size rules; Exact archetype purity of 2.9% and the archetype spread from the composition data; Banlist statuses of Droll & Lock Bird, Foolish Burial, S:P Little Knight and Solemn Judgment (Limited, each run at 1)
• Observed: Usage stats show 13 of 25 core cards present (52%)
• Inferred: Archetype core group has about 0.98 chance of at least one piece in a 5-card opening hand; Engine consistency and brick-risk estimates for the 55-card main; Interaction density and resilience read from card text
• Provisional: Matchup fit and meta standing, since no dated metagame or tournament data is supplied
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent No win-rate telemetry for going-first/second, matchup, brick or starter rates No Side Deck in the export, so post-side analysis is not possible Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
