Air Cracking Storm — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 37 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 37.7 · Deck: 36.1 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Extender · Secondary: Board breaker
Why it scores here
Air Cracking Storm converts a Machine monster's battle win into one extra attack this Battle Phase, which is a real but single-step payoff with no card advantage, no searching and no body of its own. It is restricted to Machine monsters and costs a card to use, so it earns little for accessibility and resource economy. The evidence shows four recent decks running one copy across three archetypes, but no recorded boards, so the score rests on card text and deck inclusion rather than observed combo impact. High deck inclusion here reflects a niche role, not intrinsic strength.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 40 | Equip Spell that needs a Machine on the field; four decks run it, but no combo starter or search evidence exists (inferred from text and deck counts). |
| Combo & Conversion | 35 | One extra attack after a Machine wins a battle, with the other-monsters restriction; no recorded boards to confirm impact (inferred, text-based). |
| Resource Economy | 25 | Costs a card and returns nothing; no searches, refuel or advantage in the evidence (verified from text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 20 | No negation or removal; a second attack can finish a monster but is not interaction in itself (inferred). |
| Material Utility | 5 | Spell card with no body, so it provides no material value (verified from card type). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 30 | Equip Spells are fragile to backrow and equip-removal and are dead when the Machine is absent (inferred from text). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 45 | One copy per deck and a Machine-only target create mild restriction; no garnet or lock effect (verified from text and deck counts). |
