Cyber Dragon Deck #774402 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 62/100 (±6 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox, Tempo
• Format: duel-links

Legality

Main 31 / Extra 8 / Side 0 — status: Legal with warning.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion, Xyz and Link boards (Cyber End Dragon, Chimeratech Rampage/Megafleet, Cyber Dragon Nova) enabled by Power Bond and Polymerization, fed by Cyber Dragon searchers and summon starters.; Cyberdark Realm / Cyberdark Chimera engine plus Droll & Lock Bird and Nibiru hand traps to slow the opponent's summons.
• Turn 1 (going first): Cyber Repair Plant or Cyber Dragon Core search, then Core Normal Summon or Nachster/Herz special summon, then Cyber Dragon special summon into a Fusion line with Power Bond or Polymerization.
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold Droll & Lock Bird and Nibiru as hand traps, use Forbidden Droplet and Jizukiru to answer the board, then go to the Fusion or Xyz line on the next turn.
• Recovery: Cyber Repair Plant revives Cyber Dragons from the GY and Cyberdark Chimera returns Power Bond from the Deck, giving recursion by card text (Inferred).
• After siding: Duel Links has no side deck, so there is no post-side plan; tuning happens between sessions only.

Why it scores here

The structural score comes from the system: 14 Cyber Dragon searcher and summon-starter copies give a 0.96 chance of at least one in a 5-card opener (Inferred), and five hand traps give about a 0.69 chance of at least one in a 6-card going-second hand (Inferred). Conversion rests on the Extra Deck, with four Fusion, two Xyz and two Link targets enabled by Power Bond and Polymerization, but there are no recorded boards, so the ceiling and median are text-only inference. The score is held back by the 31-card main deck (one over the Duel Links 30-card cap, legal with warning), 35.9% exact-name purity with splash Kaiju and Chronomaly pieces, and the single-copy Polymerization as a choke point. Archetype usage and guide presence confirm the list is real and accessible but added no points, and the card scores were not averaged. Meta power is null and matchup fit is provisional, so the 62 carries a ±6 band.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 64.9, Going First ≈ 69, Going Second ≈ 65, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 63. Modifiers: engine conflicts (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional) = 0.80*64.9 + 0.20*63 - 2 ≈ 62

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.96 · 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 searcher and summon-starter package (14 copies) gives a high chance of a live opener
• Five hand traps plus Forbidden Droplet and Jizukiru give layered interaction for going second
• Extra Deck is fully used with 8 distinct Fusion, Xyz and Link targets
• Several recursion routes (Cyber Repair Plant, Cyberdark Chimera) support grinding

Weaknesses

• No recorded boards, so ceiling and median are inferred only
• 31-card main deck, one over the 30-card cap (legal with warning)
• Exact-name purity 35.9%; splash Kaiju and Chronomaly pieces compete with the core engine
• Two Forbidden Droplets are dead without field cards to send
• One passcode is unresolved (null name), which weakens data clarity

Critical choke points

• Polymerization is a single copy (≈ 0.16 in a 5-card opener, Inferred); Power Bond is the only backup Fusion enabler

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legal with warning: main 31 outside (20, 30), extra 8, side 0; All distinct cards are Unlimited under BanDuelLink; no restricted cards; Archetype usage statistics show Cyber Dragon x3, Cyber Repair Plant x3 and Cyber Dragon Core x2 at full or near-full inclusion
• Inferred: Opener probabilities for searcher, hand-trap and single-copy starter groups (hypergeometric); Ceiling and median output from card text, since no boards were recorded; Interaction layering and recursion, from card text; Pilotability from the number of summon steps in the main lines
• Provisional: Meta power is null pending a dated metagame sample; Matchup and format fit (D13) is provisional; Tournament reliability relies on Inferred consistency and provisional matchup data
• 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 usage_statistics in_this_deck flags contradict the cards list for Cyber Dragon Nova, Heosvarog, Chimeratech Rampage, Cyber End Dragon, Chimeratech Megafleet and Chronomaly Vimana; core_present_pct 63.6 is unreliable deck title is null 1 passcode in CardIDList could not be resolved (null name), counted as main Duel Links has no side deck, so D12 is a neutral placeholder guides have no parsed sections; snippets only no win-rate telemetry; going-first and going-second splits are Inferred
