Runick (Mysterune) Deck #775117 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 30/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Control, Stun
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 12 / Side 0 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 2 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Quick-Play Runick spell chains (skip-Battle-Phase) that Special Summon Runick Fusion monsters from the Extra Deck into board pressure, then close with Freki / Sleipnir / Super Starslayer TY-PHON; Floodgate and removal lock (Inspector Boarder, Vanity's Fiend, Skill Drain, Grave of the Super Ancient Organism) to stop the opponent's board while the Runick chain continues
• Turn 1 (going first): Opening hand needs a Runick starter (Flashing Fire, Freezing Curses, Tip, Destruction, Slumber) plus Fusion material; open Pot of Duality or Card Scanner for extra access, then chain Quick-Play Runick spells to Fusion-summon a Runick Fangs or Wings
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand Quick-Play Runick spells and floodgates to answer the opponent's board, then Fusion-summon through a Runick Quick-Play spell; the deck has no hand traps, so it relies on removal text and floodgates
• Recovery: Runick Fountain and Radiant Typhoon Vision draw back spells from the GY; Hugin, Munin and Geri search or recover Runick spells, but this list has no Sleipnir-recursion or hand-trap backup
• After siding: Not evaluable: the deck runs zero Side Deck cards, so there is no post-side plan (Theoretical only)

Why it scores here

The structural read is Combo-primary: 22 Runick-core copies give a 93% chance of at least one core card in a 5-card opening hand (Inferred hypergeometric), and four Runick starters at 3 copies each sit near 25% per card. The Runick Fusion monsters and Quick-Play spell chains give several independent starters, so the deck does not depend on a single choke card. Interaction is dense (26 removal-text and 9 negation-text cards, plus 8 floodgates), which lifts the end-board and going-second scores. The offensive ceiling is low: only 5 monsters sit in the Main Deck, 42 of 55 cards are Spells, and the Extra Deck threats are mostly Fusion monsters that need Runick material. The deck does not score as a normal OCG deck: it runs 3 copies of Forbidden Mirage of Nightmare and 3 copies of Runick Fountain against a limit of 1, so it is illegal and capped at 30. No popularity or usage stat was used to add points, and no card scores were averaged.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 54, Going First ≈ 50, Going Second ≈ 48, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist_exposure (-8). Final formula: Structural (Combo profile) = 53.8; Final before cap = 0.80*54 + 0.20*45 + (-8 modifier) = 44; capped at 30 because the deck is Illegal (theoretical/structural-only)

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

• Dense removal and negation text across 26 and 9 cards
• Redundant Quick-Play Runick starters at 3 copies each
• Strong archetype-core presence (93% at least one in opening 5)
• Floodgate options (8) that can lock an opponent's board

Weaknesses

• Illegal in OCG: Forbidden Mirage of Nightmare x3, Runick Fountain x3 vs limit 1
• Only 5 Main Deck monsters; 42 Spells create brick and low board presence
• No hand traps; no going-second hand-trap resilience
• No Side Deck, so no post-side adaptation
• Low offensive closing power outside a few Fusion monsters

Critical choke points

• Runick Fusion monsters in the Extra Deck are required for most Quick-Play lines
• Mirage of Nightmare and Runick Fountain must be removed to make the list legal

• Inferred: Hypergeometric draw estimates (0.25 per 3-copy starter; 0.93 for the core group); Combo conversion and interaction ratings from card text; Floodgate and removal density from role flags and text hints
• Provisional: Meta Power and matchup fit (no dated meta sample); Tournament reliability (no tournament link or win-rate telemetry)
• Data gaps: no combos supplied: combo floor, median and ceiling are text-only inference no tournament link: archetype meta-share and per-pilot record absent no win-rate telemetry for going-first, going-second, matchup or brick/starter rates deck title is null; deck list has zero Side Deck cards Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied
