Deck Evilswarm #720289 — Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 28/100 (±8 · Confidence: Low)

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

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — trạng thái theo luật lúc đánh giá: Illegal. 3 violation(s).

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Xyz summon into board of negation/removal monsters; Midrange pressure via Phantom Knights engines and Adventurer token synergy
• Turn 1 (going first): Establish Xyz board (Break Sword, Malevolent Scythe) với backrow disruption (Solemn Accusation, Phantom Knights Fog Blade)
• Turn 2 (going second): Hand traps + board breaking via Forbidden Droplet and removal-heavy spell/trap suite
• Recovery: Banish recursion from Mộ via Phantom Knights monsters and Rank-Up-Magic Requiem to rebuild Xyz boards
• After siding: Unknown; no side deck present

Why it scores here

This deck is Illegal in OCG (Solemn Judgment ×2 over limit, Red Reboot Forbidden, Maxx "C" Forbidden). The structural evaluation is theoretical only. The list mixes Phantom Knights (core), Adventurer (secondary token engine), and Mulcharmy (grind-draw utility) vớiout cohesive synergy—it runs zero Evilswarm monsters despite the archetype tag, making it 1 hybrid Phantom Knights midrange list. Phantom Knights starters (Torn Scales, Silent Boots, Decayed Cloak, Doomed Soleret) are 3x each, yielding ~42% opening consistency, but the deck lacks depth: no dedicated searchers for Phantom Knights (Rusty Bardiche alone is insufficient), and the Adventurer engine (Water Enchantress ×3, Rite of Aramesir ×1) is minimal support. Combo median output is modest—Break Sword, Malevolent Scythe, and protection via Fog Blade form 1 reasonable going-first board, but với no combo data supplied, ceiling/median are inferred from card text only. Going-second has real removal (Forbidden Droplet ×3, Harpie's Feather Duster, hand traps), but the deck is 1 55-card brick factory: heavy reliance on specific Phantom Knights starters and no secondary plan if they're disrupted. Grind and recovery are modest (banish recursion via Rank-Up-Magic and Phantom Knights float). No side deck means zero post-side adaptability. The list is unrefined hybrid construction với illegal copy violations and zero archetype core presence.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: 0.70 Combo + 0.30 Midrange. Structural ≈ 33, Going First ≈ 38, Going Second ≈ 52, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 28. Modifiers: Illegality penalty (-10); Zero archetype core (-8); No side deck (-5); Limited combo redundancy (-4). Final formula: Deck is Illegal; no normal Final Contextual score applied. Theoretical structural evaluation: 0.70·Combo(33) + 0.30·Midrange(35) ≈ 33. Capped to 28 due to illegality, missing side deck, zero archetype core presence, and unrefined hybrid construction. Meta provisional; no dated metagame supplied.

Probability & combo summary

• Opening 1 starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.42 · key two-card combo ≈ 0.18 · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.15 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex 68, median 32, board-per-starter 1.2
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Strong going-second removal package: Forbidden Droplet ×3, Harpie's Feather Duster, hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Droll & Lock Bird)
• Reasonable Xyz toolbox (15-card Extra Deck): Break Sword, Malevolent Scythe, Dark Requiem, Arc Rebellion, utility Links for flexibility
• Phantom Knights float and recursion mechanics provide modest grind value and recovery from disruption
• Negation/removal density on end-board via traps (Solemn Accusation, Fog Blade, Dominus Impulse) and spells (Forbidden Droplet)

Weaknesses

• Illegal for OCG tournament play: Solemn Judgment ×2 (limit 1), Red Reboot (Forbidden), Maxx "C" (Forbidden)
• Zero Evilswarm core monsters; list is unrefined Phantom Knights hybrid—inconsistent archetype labeling and poor identity coherence
• Inconsistent engine: only 9 Phantom Knights Cấp độ 3 starters với no secondary bootstrap engines; Adventurer (4 cards) and Mulcharmy (6 cards) are too thin to cover failed openers
• Limited combo floor and median: single-choke-point reliance on Phantom Knights starters yields modest end-boards and low resilience to early disruption
• No side deck; best-of-3 format unplayable; zero post-side adaptation capability
• 55-card main deck (15 cards over minimum) với poor slot efficiency; high garnet risk and inconsistent opening hands
• Closing power is weak: modest Xyz ATK values and no direct damage or piercing effects limit win rate after establishing board

Critical choke points

• Phantom Knights starters (Torn Scales, Silent Boots, Decayed Cloak, Doomed Soleret) are the only engine openers; if disrupted early, deck has no alternative plan beyond reactive removal
• Rank-Up-Magic Requiem is conditional (requires Phantom Knights in Mộ/banish) and reactive; reliance on this card for recovery is slow and vulnerable to graveyard denial
• Adventurer token engine (Rite of Aramesir ×1) is 1 single copy với no searcher redundancy; lost to disruption early means lost secondary plan
• Illegality: Solemn Judgment ×2 over limit, Red Reboot and Maxx "C" Forbidden; deck cannot be registered or played in sanctioned OCG events

Evidence & confidence

• Verified: Legality status: Illegal (Solemn Judgment ×2 over limit 1, Red Reboot Forbidden, Maxx C Forbidden); Main deck size: 55 (vớiin legal 0–60 but over minimum); Extra Deck size: 15 (vớiin legal 0–15); Side Deck size: 0 (legal but absent for best-of-3); Card text confirmed for Phantom Knights starters, Xyz bosses, hand traps, negation traps; Archetype purity: 0% exact Evilswarm, 0 core Evilswarm monsters present; Composition: 27 Quái thú có Hiệu Ứngs, 12 Spell, 12 Trap, 10 Xyz, 5 Link in Extra
• Observed: Interaction density from card text: ~8 negation/removal cards in main (Accusation ×3, Dominus ×2, Solemn ×2, Fog Blade ×2); Hand trap coverage: Ash ×2, Ghost Ogre ×2, Droll & Lock ×1 = 5 hand traps (7 với Red Reboot + Maxx C illegal copies); Going-second removal suite: Forbidden Droplet ×3, Harpie's Feather Duster ×1, hand traps confirmed from card text
• Inferred: P(≥1 Phantom Knights starter in hand 5) ≈ 0.42 from hypergeometric draw (9 starters / 55 main); Best combo board: Break Sword + Scythe + 1–2 backrow (Fog Blade, Accusation) ≈ PowerIndex 68; Median board power: single Xyz + one trap ≈ PowerIndex 32 (no combo data supplied); Brick estimate: hands với only traps/non-engine = ~15% (rough estimate from composition); Starter diversity: effectively 1 engine (Phantom Knights) với thin secondary support; limited independent lines; Resource economy: modest net-positive from Phantom Knights recursion; banish recovery conditional on Rank-Up-Magic Requiem; Tournament Reliability score: 28 (low due to illegality, missing side, single-choke-point reliance)
• Provisional: Meta Power: null (no dated metagame sample supplied; archetype meta-share unavailable); Going-First Power: 38 (inferred from end-board negation density and trap layering; no combo evidence); Going-Second Power: 52 (inferred from strong removal package and hand trap count); Format fit and matchup coverage: cannot be assessed vớiout dated OCG meta snapshot
• Data gaps: No combo evidence supplied: đường combo tốt nhất, chỉ số sức mạnh trung vị, bàn cuối mỗi starter, and dữ liệu combo.combo đã chấm điểm are all 0; combo ceiling/median/floor are text-inferred only No tournament link: archetype meta-share, per-pilot match record, and win-rate telemetry absent No win-rate or performance telemetry: going-first vs going-second matchup win rates, brick/starter/OTK rates unknown No side deck: post-side plan, meta adaptation, and best-of-3 resilience cannot be evaluated No guides or strategic primers: archetype intent unclear; hybrid construction (Phantom Knights + Adventurer + Mulcharmy) has no documented synergy Archetype mislabel: deck is tagged Evilswarm but contains zero Evilswarm monsters; true archetype identity is ambiguous (Phantom Knights? Hybrid? Unlabeled homebrew?) No dated metagame sample: Meta Power cannot be computed; format speed, interaction density, and meta position unknown
