Dragunity Deck #793322 — 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 40 / Extra 15 / Side 12 — status under the rules at evaluation time: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Dragunity Synchro and Link monsters (Ascalon, Areadbhair, Gae Dearg, Georgius) closing through extra-deck pressure after a Dragunity engine search chain; Hieratic Dragon King of Atum and Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon as Dragon-recursion boards
• Turn 1 (going first): Dragunity Remus or Quirinus searches Dragon Ravine or a Dragunity Spell/Trap; Dragunity Divine Wind or Glow recovers Dragon-type monsters; hand traps (Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Maxx C, Droll & Lock Bird) protect the first Synchro or Link summon
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps and Ash Blossom answer the opponent's first board, then the Dragon-engine searches rebuild a Synchro or Link board from the Graveyard
• Recovery: Dragunity monsters banished from the Graveyard and Dragunity Knight equips restore board presence; Dragon Ravine and Dragunity Glow return cards to hand
• After siding: Side in Evenly Matched, Artifact Lancea, Nibiru, Crossout Designator and Dimensional Barrier against board-heavy or Spell/Trap-heavy opponents; Harpie's Feather Duster for backrow

Why it scores here

The structural read comes from the Dragunity engine: a searcher-heavy opening (about 94% chance of at least one searcher in the opening five cards, Inferred) feeds Synchro and Link summons, and five hand traps plus Ash Blossom give some protection on both turns. The score is capped low because the list runs three Forbidden cards (Borreload Savage Dragon, Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon, Simorgh) and is therefore not a legal deck in this format, so it is treated as a theoretical, structural-only read. The deck is also split across several engines (Harpie, Mulcharmy, Blackwing, Red-Eyes, Mist Valley, Destruction Sword) with only about 44% exact Dragunity name purity, which lowers consistency and brick resistance. No recorded boards, guides, or tournament results exist, so the floor, median, and ceiling are text-only inferences. Popularity of the archetype did not earn points, and the score is not an average of individual card scores.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Midrange. Structural ≈ 50, Going First ≈ 52, Going Second ≈ 46, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 45. Modifiers: banlist exposure (-12); engine conflicts (0). Final formula: Structural 50 gives 0.80*50 + 0.20*45 = 49 before modifiers; modifiers total -12 gives 37; Illegal-deck cap applied, final 25 (theoretical structural-only read)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening a starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.94 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.22 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex —, median —, board-per-starter —
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Dense searcher suite (16 searcher-text cards) gives a high chance of starting a turn-1 engine
• Five hand traps plus Ash Blossom give interaction on both turns
• Two 3300-ATK Dragunity Knights provide closing power if the Synchro is reached
• Main deck is exactly 40 cards with a clear Dragunity core

Weaknesses

• Three Forbidden cards make the list illegal in this format
• Engine spread across Harpie, Mulcharmy, Blackwing, Red-Eyes and Mist Valley lowers exact archetype purity to about 44%
• No recorded boards, so floor and median output are unmeasured
• Several interaction cards are Limited and single-copy, so repeated interruption is not covered

Critical choke points

• Reaching the first Synchro or Link summon depends on a Dragunity Tuner being present in the hand or Deck
• Forbidden Extra Deck monsters occupy three of the fifteen Extra slots and must be removed before the deck can be played

Recommended changes

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality status Illegal: three Forbidden cards run, each at one copy; Main 40, Extra 15, Side 12 within the format size rules; Limited cards each run at one copy and Ash Blossom at two copies, all within limits; Exact archetype purity 43.6% from the composition table
• Inferred: Hypergeometric starter access of about 94% for searchers and about 22% for no archetype-core card in the opening hand; Going-first and going-second plans and the strategy classification; Scores for D1 through D14 and the modifiers
• Provisional: Meta Power is null and matchup fit is provisional without a dated metagame sample
• Data gaps: No recorded combos supplied, so the floor, median, and ceiling are text-only inference No tournament link, so archetype meta-share and per-pilot records are absent No win-rate telemetry, so going-first and going-second splits are estimates Usage statistics list Dragunity Knight Luin, Romulus, Georgius and Areadbhair as absent from this deck, but the card table lists all four in the Extra Deck; the core-presence figure may be understated No guides attached to the archetype Deck title is null in the export Meta Power is provisional until a dated metagame sample is supplied
