Invoked Deck #774065 — Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 41/100 (±10 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion boss pressure from the Extra Deck (Hyperinvoked Aeon, Invoked De Anima, Invoked Purgatrio, Invoked Mechaba) enabled by Aleister searches and Invocation Fusion Summons; Link and Magistus board presence (Aleister the Invoker of Madness, Endymion, Artemis, Zoroa) as fusion-material and Extra Deck follow-up
• Turn 1 (going first): Search Aleister (Magical Meltdown / Aiwass / Aleister the Reminiscent), go to Fusion via Invocation or Super Polymerization, and land a boss monster while holding Ash Blossom as a single-turn protection layer
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold a hand trap (Ash Blossom, Skull Meister, Ghost Ogre, Effect Veiler, Droll & Lock Bird) to break the opponent's starter, then rebuild the Aleister line from the GY and banish zones
• Recovery: Aleister and Invocation effects that operate from the GY and banishment (Magical Meltdown, Gamma Summon, Invocation GY effects) to re-enter Fusion after a hand trap or board wipe
• After siding: Not assessable: the list has no side deck, so there is no post-side adjustment and no way to answer a sided-in threat

Why it scores here

The list reliably reaches its Aleister core: the archetype-core group is 98.5% likely to show at least one card in the opening 5, and three Aleister searchers plus Magical Meltdown and Invocation give it real starter density. Its interaction is the strongest part of the system, with 14 hand traps, including Ash Blossom, Skull Meister, Ghost Ogre and Effect Veiler, covering both the opening turn and the opponent's turn. Conversion is scored from structure only, because no recorded boards exist, so the ceiling (Hyperinvoked Aeon, De Anima) and the median are both marked Inferred and kept low. The deck is held down by legality (Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization run three copies against a Semi-Limited limit of two), by an empty side deck, and by the absence of any combo or tournament evidence. Popularity and archetype usage were not credited as power, and no card scores were averaged into the result.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo profile only; Stun influence noted in D7 and in the strategy label. Structural ≈ 55, Going First ≈ 58, Going Second ≈ 55, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-6); weak_post_side_plan (-3); dependence_on_extra_deck_fusion_access (-3). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional; Illegal list, so theoretical/structural only): 0.80*55 + 0.20*45 - 12 = 41

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.25 · 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

• Very high archetype-core access (98.5% at least one core card in opening 5)
• Dense hand-trap layer (14) covering both turns
• Extra Deck with multiple fusion bosses and link follow-up
• Recursion through Magical Meltdown and Invocation from GY and banishment

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: 3 copies of two Semi-Limited cards
• No side deck
• Low exact-name archetype purity (22.9%), so the engine leans on generic cards
• No measured combo or tournament data

Critical choke points

• Aleister monster access: most Fusion routes need an Aleister on field or in GY
• Hand-trap timing: a single unanswered starter removes the Aleister line on turn 1
• Legality: the list cannot be played as built until two copies each of Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization are removed

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Main 55, Extra 15, Side 0; Main size is within the 40-60 rule and Extra is within 0-15; Ash Blossom and Super Polymerization each run 3 copies against a Semi-Limited limit of 2; Card text for Aleister, Invocation, Hyperinvoked Aeon, Invoked De Anima and Invoked Purgatrio; Usage stat: archetype core cards Mulcharmy Fuwalos and Ash Blossom at 100% inclusion
• Inferred: Opening-hand starter probability (hypergeometric); Hand-trap coverage on going-second hands; Fusion conversion ceiling from card text; Interaction density and layering from negation text
• Provisional: Meta power and matchup fit (no dated meta sample); Tournament reliability (no tournament link)
• 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 1 passcode in CardIDList could not be resolved to a card (counted as main) No win-rate telemetry (going-first/second, matchup, brick and starter rates) Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
