Adamancipator Analyzer — Power Evaluation

- Intrinsic: 65 · Deck: 67 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Starter / Combo enabler · Secondary: Extender
Why it scores here
Analyzer is a hand-summoned Level 4 Rock Tuner whose main-phase excavate converts the top 5 cards of the Deck into a board body, and it appears in all 400 sampled decks at an average of 2.25 copies. Its score comes from reliable access and a clean, repeatable body conversion, not from its 1500 ATK or its popularity. The lack of recorded combo boards keeps conversion and synergy at inference-level confidence, so the score is held to the Medium band.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 78 | Hand-summon is live whenever only the opponent controls a monster, and 400/400 decks run it at 3 copies typical (verified text; observed deck and usage stats). |
| Combo & Conversion | 58 | Excavate-and-summon of a Level 4 or lower non-Tuner Rock converts one card into a body, but no combo boards were supplied to confirm the follow-up (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 62 | Excavating 5 moves the top cards to the field or the bottom of the Deck without spending the card itself, so it gives a body with no card loss; there is no graveyard refuel (verified text, inferred value). |
| Effect & Interaction | 10 | The card has no negation, removal or hand-trap effect beyond a conditional hand-summon, so opponent interaction is minimal (verified text). |
| Material Utility | 72 | A Level 4 Tuner Earth Rock is a clean Synchro material for the Rock engine, and its Tuner status persists if its effects are negated (verified text, inferred on negation). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 50 | Its two effects are each once per turn and both depend on the opponent controlling a monster or on a Rock target in the top 5, so a single negate ends the line (inferred from text). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 70 | It runs at 3 copies with no garnet or lock restriction, but it is tied to Rock support cards, which limits splashability (observed deck stats and inferred restriction). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Starter + 0.3 Extender. Intrinsic ≈ 65, Deck ≈ 67, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Hand-summon live in many openings and recurring in 400/400 sampled decks
- Excavate-summon converts the top of the Deck into a board body without spending card advantage
- Level 4 Tuner Earth Rock body fits Synchro and Rock support across 33 distinct archetypes
Weaknesses
- Hand-summon requires the opponent to control a monster and you to control none
- Excavate needs a Level 4 or lower non-Tuner Rock in the top 5, so it can miss
- Each effect is once per turn and no recorded combo boards confirm its follow-up
Counters / choke points
- Book of Eclipse (guide-cited weakness of the Adamancipator engine)
Best use
Rock Tuner starter that excavates a Level 4 or lower Rock body. Decks: Adamancipator, Magnet Warrior, Koa'ki Meiru. Suggested copies: 3.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Hand-summon condition: only the opponent controls a monster; Main Phase excavate of the top 5 cards, summoning one Level 4 or lower non-Tuner Rock; Each effect is once per turn; Level 4 Tuner Earth Rock 1500/700; 400/400 sampled decks run it, average 2.25 copies, max 3
- Observed: Partner co-occurrence: Adamancipator Researcher 98.5%, Gallant Granite 93.2%, Koa'ki Meiru Guardian 86.5%; usage statistics show 100% inclusion in the Adamancipator and Other archetypes at 2-3 typical copies; Copy distribution: 125 decks at 1, 50 at 2, 225 at 3
- Inferred: Hand-summon is live in openings where the opponent has a monster and you do not; Synchro and Tuner value of the Level 4 body is clean but fit-dependent on the Rock engine; Excavate line is a single-card starter for a Rock body with no recorded combo boards
- Data gaps: no combos supplied, so combo conversion and starter/material shares are text-only inference no banlist token; assumed 3 copies (unlimited) no published rulings supplied for the excavate and hand-summon interaction guide snippets are Vietnamese and partly truncated
