Deck — Deck Power Evaluation

Final Contextual Deck Power: 58/100 (±7 · Confidence: Medium)

• Primary strategy: Combo
• Secondary strategies: Midrange, Ritual-Summoning
• Format: ocg

Legality

Main 55 / Extra 15 / Side 0 — status: Legal.

Identity & game plan

• Win condition: Synchro Summon high-level DARK Dragon bosses (Red Dragon Archfiend variants, Bystial Dis Pater) and attack for lethal or control the board với negation.; Ritual Summon Magician of Dark Chaos or Black Luster Soldier for protection and removal, or enable multi-turn grinds through resource regeneration.
• Turn 1 (going first): Search core Resonators via Power Vice Dragon or Soul Resonator; build 1 Synchro board với 1–2 negations or board-breakers; establish grind engine với Crimson Gaia and Ritual enablers.
• Turn 2 (going second): Use hand traps (Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Droll & Lock Bird) to disrupt the opponent's setup; deploy Super Polymerization or Forbidden Droplet to remove key threats; follow up với Synchro Summons for offensive pressure.
• Recovery: Leverage Ritual recursion (Light and Darkness Ritual, Skull Archfiend of Chaos, Black Chaos) and Synchro recovery (Scarred Dragon Archfiend, Red Rising Dragon) to rebuild after disruption.
• After siding: No side deck supplied; structure suggests potential inclusion of artifact negation, additional removal, or graveyard hate tech.

Why it scores here

This Resonator hybrid blends Synchro, Ritual, and stun elements across 1 55-card main deck and 15-card Extra Deck. The deck opens core Synchro starters (Power Vice Dragon, Soul Resonator, Resonators) at ~62% consistency going first, enabling boards với 1–2 negations or disruption. Median combo output is moderate (58), hampered by 8 cards với level restrictions or conditional activation; the ceiling reaches ~68 when multiple searchers resolve. Resilience is fair (55): redundant Resonators and Ritual recursion via Skull Archfiend and Black Chaos support recovery, but single-choke-point dependency on 1 few Synchro enablers limits re-engagement after heavy disruption. Going-second has 2-card hand-trap coverage (59%), and Super Polymerization + Forbidden Droplet provide emergency removal, though vớiout dedicated board-breaker density the deck struggles against established 3+ negate boards. Resource economy is stable (62) thanks to searchers and Ritual float, but the deck does not benefit from metagame positioning (archetype meta-share unknown) and carries 1 55-card main-deck penalty (~40% of archetype core is missing). No side deck data is available. The score reflects 1 moderately cohesive but inconsistent engine, not popularity or card-power averages.

Dimension scores

How the score was computed

Strategy profile: Combo. Structural ≈ 59, Going First ≈ 63, Going Second ≈ 56, Meta = provisional, Tournament Reliability ≈ 54. Modifiers: 55-card main deck penalty (-3); Archetype core underrepresentation (-2). Final formula: 0.80Structural + 0.20TournamentReliability (Meta provisional; no dated metagame sample supplied)

Probability & combo summary

• Opening 1 starter: P(≥1) ≈ 0.72 · key two-card combo ≈ — · full-brick estimate ≈ 0.22 (all Inferred)
• Combo output: best PowerIndex 68, median 58, board-per-starter 1.8
• Turn order: 0 going-first lines vs 0 going-second lines

Strengths

• Consistent core-starter access (~72%) supports reliable T1 boards.
• Dual Synchro + Ritual engines enable redundant recovery and multi-turn grind.
• Strong hand-trap + interaction suite (7 hand traps, Forbidden Droplet, Super Polymerization, Lightning Storm) provides flexible disruption.
• Synchro bosses (Red Dragon Archfiend, Bystial Dis Pater, The Crimson King) carry 3000+ ATK and negate/removal effects; cumulative 10-slot Extra Deck coverage.
• Recursion paths (Skull Archfiend, Black Chaos, Scarred Dragon Archfiend) enable board recovery after disruption.

Weaknesses

• 55-card main deck (15 over minimum) increases brick frequency (~22%) and lowers opening-hand quality.
• Only 40.9% of archetype core cards present; missing Hot Red Dragon Abyss (100% inclusion) and The Crimson King (88.9%) severely limits board ceiling and resilience.
• Single-choke-point dependency: Resonator Tuner access is critical; loss of key searcher (Soul Resonator, Power Vice Dragon) forces redundant lines.
• Median combo output modest (~58); most lines terminate at 1 Synchro + float, lacking explosive extension chains.
• Ritual lines require Mộ setup and specific tributes; inconsistent payoff vớiout early Skull Archfiend or Black Chaos draws.
• Weak going-second board-breaking: Super Polymerization and Forbidden Droplet are reactive; no dedicated board-wipe or heavy removal package.
• No post-side-deck data; adaptability in best-of-3 unknown.

• Inferred: Consistency: P(≥1 core starter in 5) ≈ 0.72 from archetype_core_group hypergeometric model (Inferred).; Brick estimate: ~22% full-brick rate inferred from 55-card size and conditional summon locks (Inferred).; Combo ceiling ~68 based on best-line Synchro + Ritual float; median ~58 from starter diversity and lock restrictions (Inferred).; Resilience ~55 from 2 independent Synchro routes + Ritual recursion; limited by choke-point dependency (Inferred).; Resource economy ~62 from searcher density (9 distinct searcher cards) and float mechanics; Ritual mill balanced by recursion (Inferred).; Going-second hand-trap coverage: P(≥1 in 6) ≈ 0.58 from 7-copy hand-trap group (Inferred).; Board-breaking: estimated from removal density (Forbidden Droplet, Super Polymerization, Lightning Storm, Called by Grave); no dedicated wipe (Inferred).; Pilotability: Synchro lines 2–4 steps; Ritual lines 3–5 steps; moderate complexity (Inferred).
• Provisional: Meta Power is Provisional: no dated metagame sample supplied. Archetype meta-share unknown; format fit cannot be calibrated.; Tournament Reliability: no win-rate telemetry, brick/starter rates, or matchup data from live play; estimate based on opening-hand stability and post-disruption recovery only.
• Data gaps: No combos supplied: combo floor/median/ceiling, board-per-starter, and interaction-density aggregates are text-only inferred estimates. No tournament link: archetype meta-share, per-pilot match record, and live win-rate telemetry absent. No win-rate telemetry: YGOVN does not track going-first/second win rates, matchup results, brick rates, or game-level outcomes for this deck. No side deck: adaptability in best-of-3 format cannot be evaluated; D12 = 0 (no data). No guides evidence: strategic intent and pilot commentary absent. Meta Power is Provisional: 1 dated metagame sample would enable calibration; format fit remains speculative.
