Identity & game plan

Win condition: Draw-and-search value into Blue-Eyes White Dragon (3000 ATK, 3 copies) beatdown; Exodia the Forbidden One plus the four Limited Exodia pieces in hand (five specific cards, very low odds)
Turn 1 (going first): Upstart Goblin, Shard of Greed and Royal Magical Library for card flow; Original Bamboo Sword on field enables Golden Bamboo Sword draw 2; Double Summon for Blue-Eyes tributes
Turn 2 (going second): Six-card hand draws through Trade-In (discarding Blue-Eyes) and Chicken Game; Original Bamboo Sword battle damage clears the board; Blue-Eyes as the closer
Recovery: The White Stone of Legend sent to GY searches Blue-Eyes White Dragon; Dark Factory of Mass Production and Magical Stone Excavation search; Shard of Greed and Upstart Goblin rebuild the hand
After siding: No side deck: no post-side plan exists

Why it scores here

The deck is a draw-and-search Toolbox list: Upstart Goblin, Shard of Greed, Trade-In, Royal Magical Library and Chicken Game give it card flow, and it converts that flow into 3000-ATK Blue-Eyes White Dragon pressure. Engine accessibility is only moderate, because the Bamboo Sword engine needs Original Bamboo Sword face up for Golden Bamboo Sword to draw, and single-copy Exodia pieces are dead unless the full five are assembled. Interaction is thin: there are no hand traps or floodgates, and only Original Bamboo Sword's on-damage effect and Spell Power Attainment's negation text give real disruption. The score comes from the resource economy and the system's connected draw engine, not from Exodia's popularity or from averaging the card scores; the zero-copy Extra Deck and absent side deck keep it lower. No recorded boards exist, so combo ceiling and median are text-only Inferred reads.

Dimension scores

#	Dimension	Score	Evidence
D1	Engine Accessibility & Consistency	42	Archetype core group P(>=1 in opening 5) = 0.93, but the individual draw starters are each about 0.33 to 0.23 in hand and Golden Bamboo Sword needs Original Bamboo Sword out first (Inferred).
D2	Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management	35	Trade-In and Cards of Consonance need discard fodder, Golden Bamboo Sword bricks without an Equip, and the five Exodia cards are single copies that dead-draw alone (Inferred).
D3	Combo Conversion & Ceiling	45	No parseable boards; the ceiling is a text read of Blue-Eyes plus draw and Exodia's five-piece win (Inferred).
D4	Combo Floor & Median Output	35	No recorded boards; the median is judged from the draw-spell density and the dependence on a 3-of Blue-Eyes plus Double Summon (Inferred).
D5	Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy	45	Several redundant draw spells and two searchers allow rebuilding after disruption, with no hand traps to force through (Inferred).
D6	Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind	66	Shard of Greed, Trade-In, Upstart Goblin, Royal Magical Library and Chicken Game are net card-positive; the economy is strong (Inferred from card text).
D7	End-Board & Interaction Quality	30	No hand traps or floodgates; interaction is Original Bamboo Sword's on-damage destruction and Spell Power Attainment's negation text, roughly two interaction cards (Verified card text, Inferred quality).
D8	Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power	33	Going-second board breaking depends on Original Bamboo Sword connecting by direct attack, with no hand-trap or going-second disruption (Inferred).
D9	Offensive Pressure & Closing Power	45	Three Blue-Eyes at 3000 ATK and direct-attack Bamboo Sword give real closing power, but only if the field is cleared first (Verified stats, Inferred).
D10	Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility	60	41 main cards, 27 spells, 21 distinct; legal and compact, with conditional dead cards (Verified composition).
D11	Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage	35	Zero Extra Deck cards; the deck uses none of its Extra slots, so Extra coverage is absent (Verified composition).
D12	Side Deck Adaptability	15	Zero side deck cards; no post-side adaptation exists (Verified composition; best-of-3 unsupported, Provisional).
D13	Matchup Coverage & Format Fit	40	No tournament link or dated meta; matchup fit cannot be measured (Provisional).
D14	Pilotability & Error Tolerance	55	Draw sequencing, Exodia piece tracking and Bamboo Sword equip conditions are moderately complex but not extreme (Inferred).

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Toolbox. Structural ≈ 42, Going First ≈ 40, Going Second ≈ 34, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 36. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-2); weak_post_side_plan (-2); unrecoverable_choke_point (-1). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional); 0.80*41.8 + 0.20*36 - 5 = 35.8, rounded to 36

Probability & combo summary

Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.93 · key two-card combo ≈ 0.08 · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.07 (all Inferred)
Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

Dense draw package (Upstart Goblin, Shard of Greed, Trade-In, Royal Magical Library, Chicken Game) gives strong card flow
Blue-Eyes White Dragon x3 plus The White Stone of Legend gives a recursive threat that can be searched back
Legal list: all Limited cards run at one copy

Weaknesses

No hand traps or floodgates; going-second interaction is nearly absent
Exodia's five-piece win needs five specific single-copy cards in hand, so it is nearly unreachable
Golden Bamboo Sword is dead without Original Bamboo Sword face up
No Extra Deck and no side deck, so it uses none of the format's flexibility

Critical choke points

Original Bamboo Sword must be face up for the Bamboo Sword draw line
Trade-In and Cards of Consonance need a discardable Level 8 or Dragon Tuner, which only three Blue-Eyes provide

Recommended changes

Priority	Remove	Add	Reason
1	Golden Bamboo Sword x3	Playable draw or a second Bamboo Sword equip	Golden Bamboo Sword is a dead card without a second Equip Spell on field, so it is a brick in most hands
2	Exodia the Forbidden One and the four Limited pieces	Hand traps or a going-second answer	Five single-copy cards for a near-unreachable win cost a slot budget better spent on interaction
3	none	A side deck of up to 15 cards	A side deck gives the deck a post-side plan for best-of-3 play

Evidence & confidence

Verified: Legal status, all restricted cards at legal copy counts, 41 main cards, no Extra or Side; Card text for the draw spells, Original Bamboo Sword and Spell Power Attainment; Archetype core group present at 100% of usage stats
Observed: Usage statistics show the Bamboo Sword core cards at 100% and 50% inclusion
Inferred: Hypergeometric starter, brick and key-combo estimates; Interaction quality read from card text; Going-first and going-second power estimates
Provisional: Meta power and matchup fit (no dated meta sample); Best-of-3 post-side plan (no side deck)
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 starter rates are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied Deck title is null No side deck: post-side adaptability cannot be assessed
