Snake-Eye Deck #773924 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 54/100 (±6 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 45 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Level 8 and higher Synchro, Fusion and Link bosses (Snake-Eyes Doomed Dragon, Crystal Wing, Baronne de Fleur, Elfnote June Pride, Snake-Eyes Flamberge Dragon) reached through Level 1 and Level 6 starters; Azamina Fusion pressure with Azamina Mu Rcielago and Ilia Silvia, if the Azamina line is reached
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Level 1 or Level 6 starter, search or Special Summon the next starter (Elfnote Lucina, Tinia, Snake-Eye Oak, Power Patron), then extend to a Level 8 boss or a Link or Synchro bridge
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre or Maxx C to answer the first interaction, then rebuild the Level 1 engine from the GY or Deck
• Recovery: Snake-Eye Oak, Ash and Poplar recur Level 1 FIRE monsters from the GY, and Elfnote monsters re-summon from the Deck
• After siding: No side deck; the list is fixed for every game

Why it scores here

The deck opens a functional plan often: about 20 main-deck copies can be summoned or searched from hand, and the Level 1 FIRE engine (Oak, Ash, Poplar, Power Patron) has a second route through the GY. Its strength is conversion into 3000-ATK bosses and layered interaction (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Maxx C, Baronne de Fleur, Crystal Wing), but it has real brick risk: 16 Level 0 spells and traps, and Gaze of Timaeus has no Dark Magician or Dark Magician Girl to target. Archetype purity is only 15% exact-name, so the Elfnote, Snake-Eye and Azamina lines compete for slots instead of reinforcing each other. Popularity and archetype usage were not credited; the score comes from the system's consistency, interaction and closing power, and card scores were not averaged. No combo boards exist, so the combo dimensions are text-based inference.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 61, Going First ≈ 67, Going Second ≈ 59, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 55. Modifiers: engine conflicts (-3); dead or conditional card (-1); banlist exposure (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.9 · 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

• Two starter families (Level 1 FIRE and Level 6 Elfnote) give more than one opening route
• Layered interaction: three hand traps plus Baronne and Crystal Wing
• Multiple 3000 ATK-class closers
• Full 15-card Extra Deck with Link, Synchro and Fusion coverage

Weaknesses

• Only 15% exact-name archetype purity, so the three engines dilute each other
• 16 Level 0 spells and traps and conditional dead cards raise brick risk
• No side deck, so no post-side plan
• Heavy pilot demands across three archetype chains

Critical choke points

• Level 1 FIRE starters: only 6 copies across Oak, Ash, Poplar and Patron, and Ash and Poplar are Limited at 1 copy each
• Dependence on Elfnote Lucina and Tinia as the Level 6 searchers

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Legal, 45 main, 15 extra, 0 side, within size rules; Six Limited cards each run at 1 copy, within legal copies; Copy histogram: 20 singles, 2 doubles, 7 triples; Extra Deck breakdown: 5 Link, 5 Synchro, 5 Fusion; Card text and stats from the evidence excerpts
• Observed: Guide mentions Snake-Eyes as a Level 1 deck that uses Linkuriboh, I:P and Apollo
• Inferred: Starter access and hand-brick estimates from hypergeometric draws and card text; Interaction density and closing power from text; Going-first and going-second splits
• Provisional: Meta Power; Matchup and format fit; Side adaptability
• 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 for going-first or going-second, matchup, brick or starter rates usage_statistics in_this_deck reads false for Extra Deck cards that are present (Azamina Mu Rcielago, Azamina Ilia Silvia, Promethean Princess, Dark Magician of Destruction, Linkuriboh, Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon, I:P Masquerena); the export appears to check only the main zone Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample
