Exodia Deck #774240 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 22/100 (±6 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: FTK/Alternate-Win
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Blind-Second/OTK
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 41 / Extra 0 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Hold all 5 Exodia pieces (4 limbs + Exodia the Forbidden One) in hand for an instant win; the 1-copy pieces make the win a single-point-of-failure line.; Board pressure from Blue-Eyes White Dragon (3 copies, 3000 ATK) and Exodia the Obliterator (1000 ATK, lock-effect when Special Summoned); Original Bamboo Sword can destroy monsters on direct-attack battle damage.
• Turn 1 (going first): Draw-spell turns (Shard of Greed, Trade-In, Upstart Goblin, Chicken Game, Royal Magical Library) to dig for limbs; hope the limbs are drawn or recovered by Dark Factory of Mass Production.
• Turn 2 (going second): Six-card hand has a higher chance of holding at least one piece (about 0.57 for any of 5 pieces) and gives more draw-spell turns; Exodia the Obliterator and Spell Power Attainment are the only real interaction.
• Recovery: Dark Factory of Mass Production (1 copy) returns 2 Normal Monsters (limbs) from GY to hand; Magical Stone Excavation and Spell Power Attainment search Spells; White Stone of Legend sends BEWD to hand when it hits the GY.
• After siding: None: the deck has no Side Deck and no post-side plan is possible under the evidence supplied.

Why it scores here

The score comes from the system: a 41-card list with 24 copies of triple-copy draw and searcher spells that dig for five single-copy Exodia pieces, which the win needs all of at once. Consistency is the weak point: the probability that at least one piece is in a 5-card opener is about 0.50 (Inferred), but the chance that all five are in the opener is about 1.3e-6, so the win depends on several turns of digging and on the one copy of Dark Factory of Mass Production for limb recovery. Floor and median output are low, since a hand without pieces produces draw and card flow but no board, and the ceiling (an instant win once all five pieces are held) is not the typical result. Interaction is thin: no hand traps, no floodgates, and only two Spell Power Attainment negations. Popularity was not credited, and no card scores were averaged; the Exodia archetype shows only 5 core cards in usage stats, and there is no tournament or win-rate evidence. The final score (22) is low because the deck has no Extra Deck, no Side Deck, and a single unrecoverable choke point, not because the individual cards are weak.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: FTK / Alternate-Win. Structural ≈ 31, Going First ≈ 27, Going Second ≈ 32, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 28. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-2); unrecoverable choke point (-4); weak post-side plan (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional) = 0.80*30.94 + 0.20*28 - 8 = 22.35, rounded to 22

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.5 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.5 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Five-piece instant win is a real and fast alternate win once all pieces are held.
• Heavy draw and search density (7 draw spells, 3 searchers) gives strong card flow.
• Main Deck runs 3-copy density on the core engine spells, reducing brick risk for draw cards.

Weaknesses

• All five pieces are single-copy, so the win depends on a single unrecoverable set.
• Only one recovery card (Dark Factory of Mass Production) for limbs in the GY.
• No hand traps, floodgates, or reliable board interaction.
• No Extra Deck and no Side Deck, so no adaptation or extra threat.

Critical choke points

• Holding all five Exodia pieces at once; any negation or discard of a held piece breaks the line.
• Single copy of Dark Factory of Mass Production as the only limb recovery.

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal main count 41 within [40,60]; 0 Extra, 0 Side; no violations.; Five Exodia pieces each run 1 copy, all Limited (1 legal copy).; Card text: Dark Factory targets 2 Normal Monsters in GY and adds them to hand; Spell Power Attainment carries negation text.; Usage statistics: 5 core cards, 100% inclusion in this deck.
• Inferred: P(>=1 piece in 5-card opener) about 0.50; P(all 5) about 1.3e-6.; Win requires digging over several turns; no recorded boards to confirm the typical turn count.; Recovery of limbs depends on Dark Factory (1 copy).; Draw density and interaction estimates (D6, D7) from card text.
• Provisional: Meta Power and matchup fit (D13): no dated metagame sample or tournament data.
• Data gaps: no combos supplied: combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent no win-rate telemetry for going-first/second, matchup, or brick/starter rates Meta Power provisional without a dated metagame sample guide snippet is partial and in Vietnamese; its loop description (Dragon Tuner to GY to search limbs) is not verified against card text
