Deck Dracotail #734278 — Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel

Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 58/100 (±5 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Control
• Secondary strategies: none
• Format: master-duel

Legality

Main 40 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Control via hand traps, resource denial, and Fusion disruption; Resource advantage through draw engines and searchers
• Turn 1 (going first): Play hand traps, set Dracotail Spell/Trap, search key Fusion monsters, and open với Dracotail Faimena or Branded Fusion to establish board control.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps to disrupt opponent, then Triệu hồi Fusion on opponent's turn using Branded Fusion or Dracotail Mululu, followed by board control effects.
• Recovery: If the engine is disrupted, use set spells from the Mộ (e.g., Dracotail Flame) and draw engines like Mulcharmy Fuwalos to rebuild resources and re‑establish Fusion options.
• After siding: No side deck; rely on extra‑deck flexibility and in‑hand resources to adapt after side swaps.

Why it scores here

The Dracotail deck reliably opens với multiple hand‑trap and search engines, giving it 1 high chance to start its control plan. It converts those resources into Fusion summons and board control, while its draw and search tools keep the engine resilient after disruption. However, the deck mixes many off‑archetype cards, lacks 1 side deck, and requires many quick‑effect decisions, limiting its consistency and pilotability. Consequently, its structural power is solid but tempered by efficiency and adaptability weaknesses.

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Control. Structural ≈ 65, Going First ≈ 62, Going Second ≈ 64, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 60. Modifiers: Low side‑deck adaptability (-2); Low main‑deck efficiency (-2); Limited pilotability (-1). Final formula: 0.80Structural + 0.20TournamentReliability (Meta provisional)

Probability & combo summary

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

Strengths

• High hand‑trap count for disruption
• Strong draw and search engines
• Flexible Fusion options covering many monsters

Weaknesses

• Low archetype purity; many generic cards
• No side deck for matchup specific tech
