Springans Deck #788416 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

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

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

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 15 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Fallen of Albaz-based Fusion Summons into high-ATK Level 8 Fusion Monsters (Albion the Sanctifire Dragon, The Dragon that Devours the Dogma, Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon) that overwhelm the board; Synchro and Fusion pressure from The Three Champions of Swordsoul and Titaniklad the Ash Dragon, backed by the Branded and Despia Spell/Trap recursion
• Turn 1 (going first): Open on a searcher or Fallen of Albaz-enabling monster, search the Branded Spell/Trap or Fusion enabler, and Fusion Summon a Level 8 threat on turn 1 or 2 while holding Ash Blossom or Droll & Lock Bird for the opponent's first response
• Turn 2 (going second): Use Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring, Droll & Lock Bird and Maxx "C" to strip the opponent's first Special Summon or draw, then rebuild the Fusion route from the Graveyard with Branded in Red and the Despia recursion
• Recovery: Recover from interruption by re-searching through Aluber, Incredible Ecclesia and Dogmatika Ecclesia, and re-summoning Fallen of the White Dragon or Fallen of Albaz from the Graveyard to restart the Fusion engine
• After siding: Bring in Lightning Storm, Forbidden Droplet or Harpie's Feather Duster against spell/trap-heavy decks, and Nibiru or Mulcharmy Purulia against summon-heavy lines, while cutting the over-limit Branded copies

Why it scores here

This list has real engine density: about 20 searcher effects and roughly 98% odds of at least one searcher in a 5-card opening hand, so the engine usually starts. Its interaction suite (Ash Blossom, Droll & Lock Bird, Maxx "C", Branded Retribution and the Swordsoul negation) gives it layered answers, and the Level 8 Fusion finishers give it closing power. The score is built on how these parts work together as one system, not on an average of the individual card scores. The deck is illegal in OCG: three copies of Branded in High Spirits and three of Branded Opening exceed their limit of one, and two Albion the Branded Dragon are Forbidden, so the result is structural-only and capped low. Popularity and archetype usage did not earn points, and there is no recorded combo, tournament or matchup evidence to lift the consistency or meta reads.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 61, Going First ≈ 60, Going Second ≈ 56, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 52. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-10); engine conflicts (-2). Final formula: Illegal-deck rule: 0.80*61 + 0.20*52 + modifiers(-12) = 47, capped to 30 as structural-only because the list breaks OCG copy limits and runs Forbidden cards

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.98 · 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

• Searcher density gives a near-certain engine start on the opening hand
• Four hand traps and multiple negations/removal give layered interaction
• Level 8 Fusion finishers with 2500–3000 ATK give closing power

Weaknesses

• Illegal in OCG: three over-limit Branded cards and two Forbidden Albion copies
• Engine coherence is low (3.6% exact-name purity, spread across Mulcharmy, Bystial, Tri-Brigade and Harpie)
• No recorded combos, so conversion and floor are text-only reads

Critical choke points

• Fallen of Albaz must be live for most Fusion lines; its loss or a targeted removal stalls the Fusion engine
• Ash Blossom and Droll copies are the only early answers to the first summon or draw

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Deck is Illegal in OCG: Branded in High Spirits 3 copies (limit 1), Branded Opening 3 copies (limit 1), Albion the Branded Dragon 2 copies (Forbidden); Main 40, Extra 15, Side 15 are within OCG size rules; Extra Deck has 13 Fusion and 2 Synchro monsters; Searcher-text group P(at least one in 5-card hand) = 0.9764
• Inferred: Engine start probability is high based on searcher density; Interaction layering from hand-trap and negation text; Closing power from Level 8 Fusion stats and text
• Provisional: Meta Power and matchup fit (no dated meta sample); Tournament reliability (no tournament link)
• Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo floor/median/ceiling is text-only inference no tournament link — archetype meta-share and per-pilot match record absent no win-rate telemetry exists in YGOVN (going-first/second, matchup, game-level, brick/starter/OTK rates) — those signals are Inferred or Unknown Meta Power is Provisional unless a dated metagame sample is supplied deck title is null in the export
