Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±5 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 1 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Blue-Eyes Extra Deck boss monsters (Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit Dragon, Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, Blue-Eyes Tyrant Dragon) reached through Blue-Eyes White Dragon and Synchro/Fusion/Link summons; no recorded boards to confirm the route.; Blue-Eyes Jet Dragon and Lightstorm/Cosmic Blazar Dragon as attacking or removal-backed follow-ups.
• Turn 1 (going first): Normal Summon a Tuner (Sage with Eyes of Blue, Maiden of White, Primite Dragon Ether Beryl) to search or set a Blue-Eyes/Primite line, then protect with Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence and Droll & Lock Bird.
• Turn 2 (going second): Hold hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Belle, Effect Veiler, Ghost Ogre, Droll & Lock Bird) to answer the opponent's first combo, then rebuild through Blue-Eyes White Dragon and Synchro Summons.
• Recovery: Recycle Blue-Eyes monsters from the GY with Roar of the Blue-Eyed Dragons, Majesty of the White Dragons and Neo Kaiser Sea Horse, and rebuild the Extra Deck line from Mausoleum of White and Spirit with Eyes of Blue.
• After siding: No Side Deck (side_count 0); no post-side plan exists in this list.

Why it scores here

The deck is scored as a system, not as an average of its card scores. Its consistency comes from many overlapping starters (Sage, Maiden, Ghost Ogre, Mulcharmy Fuwalos, Primite Beryl, Nibiru) rather than from one unique starter, so the single-card probability of a Blue-Eyes White Dragon in the opening five is only about 0.18 for two copies, but the archetype-core proxy is about 0.98. Interaction is the strongest part of the list: about 17 negation texts and 16 hand-trap copies give layered answers, and the going-second hand-trap odds are about 0.89. The Extra Deck has real closing power (Blue-Eyes Ultimate Spirit Dragon, Neo Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, Cosmic Blazar Dragon), but no recorded boards exist, so conversion and median output are inferred from text only. The deck earns no points from archetype popularity or usage share, and it is capped to 35 because the list is illegal: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring runs 3 copies against a limit of 2. Only 20% of the main deck is exact-name Blue-Eyes, so engine coherence is weaker than the archetype label suggests.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 56.3, Going First ≈ 58, Going Second ≈ 60, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: Copy-limit violation (Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring x3, limit 2) (-12). Final formula: No reliable metagame: 0.80*Structural(56.3) + 0.20*TournamentReliability(45) = 54.0; context modifier -12 (copy-limit violation) gives 42; the Illegal-deck cap then sets the reported score to 35 (theoretical/structural only). Meta Power is provisional.

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

• Layered negation: about 17 negation texts plus 16 hand-trap copies
• Large going-second hand-trap coverage (0.888 in a 6-card hand)
• High-ceiling Extra Deck bosses (ATK 3500 to 4500)
• Several independent starters reduce single-card dependence

Weaknesses

• Illegal as built: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring at 3 copies against a limit of 2
• Low exact-archetype purity (20%) with many Primite, Mulcharmy, Dominus and Bystial cards
• No Side Deck
• No recorded combos, so no measured floor, median or ceiling
• Blue-Eyes White Dragon (2 copies) is a low-probability opener

Critical choke points

• Blue-Eyes White Dragon (2 copies) is the engine gate for Blue-Eyes Extra Deck summons
• Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring's copy-limit breach must be fixed before the deck is playable
