Legality
Main 55 / Extra 0 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 6 violation(s).
Identity & game plan
- Win condition: Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning (single copy) as a 3000 ATK beater after a removal-heavy board clear; no reliable closer exists because the Extra-Deck-free list has only one engine body; Direct damage and battle pressure from Airknight Parshath and Asura Priest; both are one-copy cards with no redundancy
- Turn 1 (going first): Open Book of Moon or Smashing Ground / Nobleman of Crossout to clear a single threat, then search or draw toward Envoy; the opening-hand probability of any specific starter is low (about 0.09 to 0.25)
- Turn 2 (going second): Hold Solemn Judgment (illegal as built) and Mirror Force / Torrential Tribute style answers to a board; the list has no reliable going-second board-breaking engine
- Recovery: Re-search through Reinforcement of the Army (Warrior, Level 4 or lower) and Mystic Swordsman LV2; recovery depends on one-copy bodies and is Inferred only
- After siding: Not evaluable: the deck has zero Side Deck cards, so no post-side plan exists in the evidence
Why it scores here
The list is illegal as built: three Forbidden cards (Pot of Greed, Graceful Charity, Delinquent Duo) plus Trap Dustshoot are run, and Solemn Judgment and Reinforcement of the Army exceed their Limited copy caps, so it receives a capped, structural-only score. Its interaction density is the strongest part of the read, with many removal and negation effects covering the board, but these are mostly generic one-copy or two-copy cards rather than an engine. The Black Luster Soldier identity is thin: only one copy of the exact archetype name is present, and the single Envoy body has a 0.09 chance of appearing in a going-first opening hand, so the deck does not reliably open a functional plan. No recorded boards exist, so combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inferences and the score does not come from averaging card scores or from the archetype's usage statistics, none of which are present in this list.
Dimension scores
| # | Dimension | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | Engine Accessibility & Consistency | 25 | P(>=1 Envoy in 5-card opening hand) is about 0.09 for the one-copy engine body; no multi-copy starter is present (Inferred) |
| D2 | Opening-Hand Quality & Brick Management | 30 | 27 of 38 distinct main cards are singletons and 34 are Spell/Trap removal, so most opening hands are answer-heavy with little board development (Inferred) |
| D3 | Combo Conversion & Ceiling | 30 | No parseable boards exist; the only conversion path is the Envoy plus removal text, which is a text-only inference (Inferred) |
| D4 | Combo Floor & Median Output | 25 | Median output is unmeasured; the list relies on one-for-one removal rather than a repeatable conversion line (Inferred) |
| D5 | Interruption Resilience & Route Redundancy | 40 | Several removal and negation effects provide interruption coverage, but there is no independent second line if the one Envoy is removed (Inferred) |
| D6 | Resource Economy, Recovery & Grind | 35 | Draw and discard cards (Pot of Greed, Graceful Charity, Jar of Greed) would support recovery, but the Forbidden ones cannot be legally run (Verified banlist, Inferred impact) |
| D7 | End-Board & Interaction Quality | 55 | Mirror Force, Torrential Tribute, Heavy Storm, Solemn Judgment and Ring of Destruction give broad interaction density across the board (Inferred semantic read) |
| D8 | Going-Second & Board-Breaking Power | 45 | Mirror Force and Torrential Tribute challenge an established board, but no going-second engine exists to exploit the board after it is cleared (Inferred) |
| D9 | Offensive Pressure & Closing Power | 40 | Envoy has 3000 ATK and Airknight Parshath pierces, but there is only one attacker of that size and no reliable closing source (Verified stats, Inferred closing) |
| D10 | Main Deck Efficiency & Flexibility | 35 | 55 cards with 38 distinct main cards and generic removal dilute archetype cohesion; the main size is legal but the composition is loose (Inferred) |
| D11 | Extra Deck Efficiency & Coverage | 40 | No Extra Deck cards are present, so Extra-slot efficiency is neutral and not a strength of this list (Verified) |
| D12 | Side Deck Adaptability | 10 | No Side Deck cards are present, so there is no post-side adaptability to score (Verified) |
| D13 | Matchup Coverage & Format Fit | 30 | No dated metagame sample or tournament link exists, so matchup fit is provisional (Provisional) |
| D14 | Pilotability & Error Tolerance | 40 | The list is mostly one-card interactions with few multi-step lines, which lowers error risk, but there is no combo sequence to validate pilotability (Inferred) |
How the score was computed
Strategy profile: Toolbox. Structural ≈ 34.6, Going First ≈ 30, Going Second ≈ 33, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 25. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-8). Final formula: 0.80*Structural + 0.20*TournamentReliability (Meta provisional) + ContextModifiers = 0.80*34.6 + 0.20*25 - 8 = 24.7, rounded to 25; capped as an Illegal list
Probability & combo summary
- Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.09 · 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 interaction: many removal and negation effects covering face-up monsters and Spell/Traps
- Main size (55) is inside the OCG 40-60 range
- Real archetype-adjacent support in Black Luster Soldier Envoy and generic removal
Weaknesses
- Illegal: three Forbidden cards and two Limited cards over their caps
- Only one copy of the archetype's exact-name engine body, so starter access is poor
- No combo evidence and no Side Deck, so no post-side or matchup read
Critical choke points
- Single Envoy of the Beginning as the only finisher and engine body
- Forbidden or over-limit cards would need to be removed before the list can be played at all
Recommended changes
| Priority | Remove | Add | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Pot of Greed, Graceful Charity, Delinquent Duo, Trap Dustshoot | Legal draw or search cards (for example one extra Reinforcement of the Army at the Limited cap of one, or Mulcharmy-style searchers if legal) | Restores legality; the list cannot be scored as a real deck until the Forbidden and over-limit cards are removed |
| 2 | Two of the three copies of Solemn Judgment and one Reinforcement of the Army | Single copies or other legal interaction | Brings Limited cards within their copy caps |
| 3 | Several one-copy generic removal spells | Additional Black Luster Soldier-named bodies or a second engine starter | Raises starter access and gives the deck an independent second line |
Evidence & confidence
- Verified: Main size 55 inside the 40-60 OCG range; Four Forbidden cards and two Limited cards over their copy caps; Zero Extra and zero Side cards; Single exact-name Black Luster Soldier copy
- Inferred: Starter opening-hand probabilities (hypergeometric, Main Deck only); Interaction density read from card text; Consistency and brick-rate estimates
- Provisional: Meta Power (no dated metagame sample); Matchup fit (no tournament link)
- 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 No Side Deck: post-side adaptability cannot be measured No win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN for this deck Deck title is null in the export
