Main 41 / Extra 9 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

  • Win condition: Equipped Bamboo Sword monsters and Original Bamboo Sword's destroy-all on direct battle damage, backed by Endymion, Aiwass and Dark Magician of Destruction as high-ATK closers; Possessed Destiny - Wynn stealing an opposing monster, and Dugares/Nyarla board pressure from the Extra Deck
  • Turn 1 (going first): Open a 9-monster main-deck body (Summoner Monk or Royal Magical Library), draw with Upstart Goblin, Royal Magical Library and Golden Bamboo Sword, then equip Bamboo Sword to reach direct attacks
  • Turn 2 (going second): Use the draw-heavy spells to find a monster for a single Bamboo Sword line, with Original Bamboo Sword as the board-wipe finisher if the direct attack connects; there is no hand trap or floodgate support
  • Recovery: Recover from the graveyard through Cursed and Golden Bamboo Sword GY effects, Magia Magic and Spell Counter tracking via Endymion and Magical Citadel of Endymion
  • After siding: None. The deck runs 0 side cards, so there is no post-side plan to evaluate

Why it scores here

The deck reliably opens a draw-heavy plan: roughly 73% of opening 5-card hands contain at least one of its 9 main-deck monsters (Inferred hypergeometric), and Royal Magical Library, Upstart Goblin, Golden Bamboo Sword and Into the Void give it strong card flow once a body is on the field. Conversion is the weak point: there are only 9 main-deck monsters for 32 non-monster slots, so many hands draw spells with no body to equip, and no recorded boards exist to confirm a median line. Its ceiling comes from the Extra Deck closers (Endymion, Aiwass, Dark Magician of Destruction, Wynn) and Original Bamboo Sword's destroy-all, but the deck has no hand traps, no floodgates and no side deck, so it has little resilience against interaction and no post-side plan. Popularity did not earn points: the archetype core is fully present (6/6 usage-stat cards), which confirms the list is real but says nothing about strength, and the score was built from the system rather than an average of card scores.

Dimension scores

# Dimension Score Evidence
D1 Engine Accessibility & Consistency 58 P(≥1 of 9 main-deck monsters in opening 5) ≈ 0.73; P(≥1 Summoner Monk in opening 5) ≈ 0.33; P(≥1 archetype core card in opening 5) ≈ 0.84 (Inferred)
D2 Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management 52 32 of 41 main-deck slots are non-monsters, so many hands are spell-heavy with no body to use them; draw spells partly mitigate this (Inferred)
D3 Combo Conversion & Ceiling 56 No parseable boards; ceiling read from card text: Original Bamboo Sword direct-attack wipe, Wynn control steal, DMoD/Endymion/Aiwass 2000–2800 ATK bodies (Inferred semantic read)
D4 Combo Floor & Median Output 42 combo data has 0 scored combos, so median and floor are not measurable; the typical line is likely a single equip chain with few follow-ups (Inferred, Provisional)
D5 Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy 48 Recursion via Cursed and Golden Bamboo Sword GY effects and Magia Magic, but no hand traps or protection; a single interruption to the body ends most lines (Inferred)
D6 Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind 70 Heavy draw suite (Upstart Goblin, Royal Magical Library, Into the Void, Golden Bamboo Sword, Spellbook of Knowledge) plus GY recursion gives strong card economy (Inferred from card text)
D7 End-Board & Interaction Quality 44 Interaction is limited to removal text on Magia Magic, Schoolwork Successful and Original Bamboo Sword plus negation text on Endymion and Spell Power Attainment; no hand traps or floodgates (Verified flags, Inferred semantic)
D8 Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power 40 Going-second relies on Original Bamboo Sword's single copy and no hand-trap support; going-second split is unavailable (Inferred)
D9 Offensive Pressure & Closing Power 62 End-board ATK of 2800 (Endymion, DMoD) and 2000/2800 (Aiwass), plus direct-attack pressure from Bamboo Sword equips (Verified stats, Inferred closing)
D10 Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility 45 41 main with 9 monsters and 20 singletons; archetype exact-name purity 14% across Magistus, Endymion, Familiar-Possessed, Greed, Magician, Schoolwork and Spellbook sub-archetypes (Verified composition, Inferred coherence)
D11 Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage 55 9 Extra-Deck cards (6 Fusion, 2 Xyz, 1 Link) with 3 Fusion enablers; Fusion Gate, Chain Material and Temple of the Kings support access but the monster count limits material (Inferred)
D12 Side Deck Adaptability 8 0 side-deck cards: no post-side adaptability and no best-of-3 plan (Verified)
D13 Matchup Coverage & Format Fit 48 tournament data unavailable and no dated metagame sample supplied; score is neutral-provisional (Provisional)
D14 Pilotability & Error Tolerance 38 Multi-archetype engine with Spell Counter tracking, equip-target conditions and several Extra-Deck summon routes creates many decision points (Inferred)

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 51, Going First ≈ 52, Going Second ≈ 50, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 46. Modifiers: No side deck / no post-side plan (-2); Low monster count / brick risk (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) + ContextModifiers = 0.80*50.8 + 0.20*46 - 4 ≈ 46

Probability & combo summary

  • Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.73 · 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

  • Strong draw suite and GY recursion for card economy
  • High-ATK Extra Deck closers with direct-attack and destroy-all finishers
  • Real archetype core: 6/6 usage-stat cards present

Weaknesses

  • Only 9 main-deck monsters for 32 non-monster slots
  • No hand traps, floodgates or side deck
  • Mixed sub-archetype engine with 14% exact-name purity

Critical choke points

  • Summoner Monk and Royal Magical Library: the only 3-copy monster bodies that enable equip and draw lines
  • A single monster removed or negated before equips resolve collapses the Bamboo Sword line
Priority Remove Add Reason
1 1 Into the Void 1 Level 4 Spellcaster monster (for example a Magistus or Endymion body) Raises the main-deck monster count above 9 and reduces the chance a hand is all non-monster spells; the change is structural and not a measured win-rate claim
2 None (deck is at 0 side cards) A 15-card side deck with negation or hand-trap options Gives a post-side plan for best-of-3 and some going-second interaction; no matchup data supports a specific side choice

Evidence & confidence

  • Verified: Deck is Legal under BanMasterDuel with 41 main and 9 extra cards in size range; Foolish Burial Goods is Limited and runs 1 copy, within its limit; 9 main-deck monsters; 0 hand traps, 0 floodgates, 0 side cards; Usage stats: 6/6 archetype core cards present
  • Inferred: P(≥1 monster in opening 5) ≈ 0.73 and in opening 6 ≈ 0.80; Consistency and brick read from monster count and draw text; Ceiling read from Original Bamboo Sword, Wynn, Endymion, Aiwass and DMoD card text; Going-first and going-second blends
  • Provisional: Meta Power (null) and matchup fit (D13) lack a dated metagame sample; No tournament link, so reliability is estimated
  • Data gaps: No combos supplied: floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent No win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchups or brick rate Meta Power is provisional without a dated metagame sample Side deck is empty, so post-side performance cannot be assessed
