Dinomist Deck #774862 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 25/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Midrange
• Secondary strategies: Toolbox
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 54 / Extra 17 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Pendulum-zone chains into Link and Xyz boss monsters such as Majespecter Draco; no recorded board confirms the line; Direct boss pressure from Perfectron Hydradrive Dragon (5000 ATK, Limited, 1 copy) and Dinowrestler Pankratops (2600 ATK)
• Turn 1 (going first): Open a Pendulum pair (Dinomight Powerload, Majespecter Raccoon, Wind Unicorn Parallel) with searchers to reach a boss; Majespecter Wind and searcher monsters as brick insurance
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps and negation (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Maxx C, Nibiru, Majespecter Tempest) then Pendulum follow-up; not verifiable from evidence
• Recovery: Majespecter and Dracoslayer searchers plus Pendulum-zone re-summons may recover after one disruption; unverified without boards
• After siding: Not assessable: the deck runs 0 side cards

Why it scores here

The deck is Illegal: Borreload Savage Dragon and Baronne de Fleur are both Forbidden in OCG and each runs one copy, and the Extra Deck holds 17 cards against a maximum of 15. Under the legality rule it receives no normal Final Contextual score, so this is a structural-only read capped at 25. The structure is a plausible Pendulum-chain engine: 12 archetype-core copies give about a 0.73 chance of at least one in an opening hand of 5 (Inferred), and 23 searcher-text cards plus 5 hand traps support follow-up and interruption. No combos, guides, tournament link or side deck were supplied, so the ceiling, median and post-side strength are unknown. The score comes from consistency and interaction read on the system, not from averaging card scores and not from archetype popularity, since only 40% of the archetype's core cards are present.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 48, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 42, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 40. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-8); no side deck (-3). Final formula: Illegal cap: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability + modifiers (-11) ≈ 35, capped at 25; Meta provisional

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

• Deep searcher text (23 cards) and 12 archetype-core copies give a high chance of a starter
• Five hand traps and seven negation-text cards provide going-second interruption
• Main Deck is within the legal 40-60 size range

Weaknesses

• Two Forbidden cards in the Extra Deck make the list illegal
• Extra Deck of 17 exceeds the OCG maximum of 15
• Archetype purity is 0% exact-name; the engine spans Majespecter, Dracoslayer, Magician and Vaylantz
• No side deck

Critical choke points

• Pendulum Zone pairing, since two Pendulum monsters are needed for the Link and Xyz bosses
• Single-copy Limited searchers (Astrograph Sorcerer, Pot of Prosperity, Terraforming) cannot be replaced by a second copy

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Forbidden cards Borreload Savage Dragon and Baronne de Fleur each run 1 copy; Extra Deck is 17 cards against a maximum of 15; Main Deck is 54 cards with 0 side cards; Archetype exact-name purity is 0%
• Inferred: Starter probability of about 0.73 for the core group; Interaction density from card-text roles
• Provisional: Meta power and matchup fit
• Data gaps: no combos supplied, so combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link, so archetype meta-share and per-pilot record are absent no side deck, so post-side adaptability cannot be assessed no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN; going-first/second and matchup signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
