Abyss Stungray — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 54 ± 6 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 55 · Deck: 54 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Material body · Secondary: Utility
Why it scores here
Abyss Stungray's value comes from converting a Trap into a 1900 ATK LIGHT Thunder Level 5 monster that cannot be destroyed by battle when Special Summoned this way, so it scores mainly as a clean Level 5 material body with some durability. Its 1900 ATK earns nothing by itself. The evidence shows 22 main-deck appearances across 20 archetypes, which supports breadth of use, but there is no combo, searcher, or guide evidence to show it converts into board or card advantage, so combo and resource scores stay low.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 55 | 22 of 22 decks run it in the main deck across 20 archetypes, but the card text gives no summon location and there is no searcher evidence (observed, inferred). |
| Combo & Conversion | 45 | No combo boards are recorded, so conversion is text-only: a Level 5 body with no stated follow-up (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 30 | No card advantage, refuel, or search is described in the text or the evidence (verified). |
| Effect & Interaction | 10 | The text grants no negation, removal, or disruption, so it contributes no opponent interaction (verified). |
| Material Utility | 60 | Thunder / LIGHT / Level 5 with 1900 ATK is a clean material fit, and the body remains as material even if its effects are negated (inferred). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 50 | Battle-indestructibility applies only when Special Summoned this way; the trap-zone origin is unknown, so multi-zone resilience cannot be confirmed (verified, inferred). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 70 | Averages 1.82 copies per deck with a 3-copy typical count in Trap Monster, with no garnet or lock restriction (observed). |

Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Card text: Special Summon as LIGHT Thunder Level 5 1900 ATK Effect Monster; battle-indestructible when so summoned; 22 of 22 decks run it in the main deck; Average 1.82 copies per deck, distribution 1/2/3 = 12/2/8; 20 distinct archetypes; Trap Monster usage inclusion 100% at 3 copies
