Cyber Dragon Deck #774707 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 35/100 (±8 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Midrange, Toolbox
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 5 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fusion Summon Chimeratech Overdragon or Cyber End/Twin Dragon off Cyber Dragon materials (Overload Fusion) and attack through a weakened board; Gorz the Emissary of Darkness (2700 ATK) as a hand-summoned closer after taking damage; Mechanicalchaser and Breaker as board pressure
• Turn 1 (going first): Open with a Gadget (Yellow/Green/Red) to search the next Gadget, then Cyber Dragon for the Fusion base; Raigeki Break or Lightning Vortex to clear blockers if the board is contested
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Torrential Tribute, Dust Tornado, Mirror Force or Sakuretsu Armor to answer the opponent's board, then rebuild through Gadget search loops and a Fusion turn
• Recovery: Gadget chain (6 searchers) and Mystical Space Typhoon / Heavy Storm to clear backrow; Pot of Avarice (1 copy) as a late recursion-style draw
• After siding: No side deck is registered (side_count 0); Master Duel play has no post-side plan in the evidence, so this is not evaluated (Provisional)

Why it scores here

The deck opens a functional plan only through a narrow chain: a Cyber Dragon (3 copies, P(≥1 in opening 5) ≈ 0.34) must be on the field alongside Overload Fusion (2 copies, P(≥1 in 5) ≈ 0.24) before any Fusion ceiling is reachable, and the Gadget search loop (6 searchers, P(≥1 in 5) ≈ 0.58) is the main brick buffer. Conversion is credited for its ceiling (Overdragon, Cyber End and Twin Dragon, Gorz) rather than its median, since no recorded boards exist and the guides describe it as not strong enough for the current meta. Interaction is real and layered (about 13 removal and protection effects across spells and traps, plus Heavy Storm at its legal single copy), but there are no hand traps and only one negate effect, so the deck has little answer to a single disruption. Popularity and archetype usage did not earn points: none of the 25 usage-core cards are present and archetype purity is 6.7%, so the score reflects the system as built, not an average of card scores. Meta Power is Provisional and no dated sample was supplied.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 41.3, Going First ≈ 40, Going Second ≈ 45, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 35. Modifiers: unrecoverable choke point (-3); non-standard build / core missing (-2). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + ContextModifiers (Meta provisional; 0.80*41.3 + 0.20*35 = 40.0, then -5 modifiers = 35)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.34 · key two-card combo ≈ 0.08 · 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

• Gadget search loop of 6 searchers gives repeatable search density
• Layered removal and protection across spells and traps (Raigeki Break, Mirror Force, Torrential Tribute, Dust Tornado, Heavy Storm)
• High-ceiling Fusion closers (Cyber End Dragon 4000 ATK piercing, Overdragon) once a Cyber Dragon is live

Weaknesses

• No hand traps, so a single interruption often leaves the hand without a plan
• Cyber Dragon's Special Summon condition is restrictive (opponent must control only one monster)
• Off-archetype staples and no usage-core cards dilute the engine
• No side deck (side_count 0)

Critical choke points

• Cyber Dragon (3 copies) is required for both Overdragon and Cyber End/Twin Dragon Fusion
• Overload Fusion (2 copies) is the only Fusion spell in the Main Deck

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality: Legal, 40 main, 5 extra, 0 side, Heavy Storm Limited at 1 copy; Card text and stats for all listed cards; Archetype purity 6.7%; 0 of 25 usage-core cards present
• Inferred: Opening-hand starter and joint CD+OF probabilities; Pilotability and interaction quality read from card text; Conversion ceiling for Overdragon and Cyber End Dragon
• Provisional: Meta Power; Matchup fit and tournament reliability (no dated meta or tournament data)
• Data gaps: no combos supplied, so floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link, so archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN for this deck Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied no side deck, so post-side adaptation cannot be evaluated
