Infernoble Knight Deck #774028 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 41/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Combo, 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: Quick-Play chain of Radiant Typhoon spells into boss monsters (Radiant Typhoon Fonix, Varuroon, Krosea) and Extra Deck Xyz/Link finishers (Inferred); Extra Deck Xyz/Link beaters such as Phantom Fortress Enterblathnir, Totem Bird and Wynn-line Link summons (Inferred)
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Radiant Typhoon starter, chain Mystical Space Typhoon or Radiant Typhoon Vision to search and summon bosses (Inferred)
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Evenly Matched) to interrupt, then rebuild through Quick-Play chains (Inferred)
• Recovery: Searchers and recursion from Radiant Typhoon Manifestation, Chant and Ascendance, plus Mulcharmy draw effects (Inferred)
• After siding: None: the list runs no Side Deck, so there is no post-side plan (Verified)

Why it scores here

The deck's engine is the Radiant Typhoon Quick-Play chain: 14 triple-copy and several single-copy Radiant Typhoon cards, plus Mystical Space Typhoon, give a high chance of finding a starter (archetype-core proxy P(at least one in opening 5) about 0.9999, Inferred), and 19 searcher-text cards keep the hand moving. Interaction is the strongest part of the system (10 negation-text and 14 removal-text cards, 5 hand traps), and the Quick-Play recursion gives it some resilience to a single disruption. The score is held down by the absence of recorded boards (no combo floor, median or ceiling can be measured), the 70 off-archetype copies (only 27 Radiant Typhoon-named copies of the 55-card main), the lack of any Side Deck, and the list being illegal: Ash Blossom and Pot of Extravagance are each run three times against a limit of two. Structural power was computed from the Midrange profile without averaging card scores; the final score is capped and labelled structural-only because the list is illegal, and Meta Power is null (Provisional).

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 55.5, Going First ≈ 58, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: illegal_copy_limit (-10); no Side Deck (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) = 53.4, then capped by Illegal status via modifiers to 41

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 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

• Dense Radiant Typhoon engine with many Quick-Play starters
• Broad interaction: negation and removal text plus 5 hand traps
• Strong recursion and searchers keep resources flowing

Weaknesses

• Illegal copy counts for Ash Blossom and Pot of Extravagance
• Large off-archetype spread dilutes engine coherence
• No Side Deck and no post-side plan
• No recorded boards, so ceiling and median cannot be checked

Critical choke points

• Mystical Space Typhoon must be in the GY for many Radiant Typhoon effects, so the engine depends on it
• Quick-Play window timing for summons
• Dependence on a few Extra Deck Link/Xyz cards for closing

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Illegal status: Ash Blossom and Pot of Extravagance each run 3 copies vs a Semi-Limited limit of 2; Droll & Lock Bird and Radiant Typhoon Chant are Limited and run 1 copy each (legal); Main 55 and Extra 15 are within size rules; Side 0 (no Side Deck); Card text and role-hint flags for every listed card
• Inferred: Starter access and brick risk from hypergeometric odds and copy counts; Interaction quality from negation and removal text; Going-first and going-second plans from card text; Dimension scores D1 to D11 and D14
• Provisional: D13 matchup and format fit, and Meta Power (no dated metagame sample)
• 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/second, matchup, brick/starter/OTK rates) Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied no Side Deck supplied, so post-side performance cannot be assessed deck title is null
