Alinsection — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 37 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 40.5 · Deck: 35.3 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Material body / Normal
Why it scores here
Alinsection is a vanilla Level 3 EARTH Insect Normal Monster with no effect, so it converts into nothing on its own. Its value is only as a generic Level 3 material body, which is real but modest, and it is run in just 2 sampled decks at one copy each with no recorded combos. The 950 ATK earns nothing, and the score sits at the low end because the card has no search, negation, or board role to justify more.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 30 | Drawn like any monster and seen in 2 of 2 sampled decks, but it has no searcher or combo route to make it live beyond a normal summon (observed; inference). |
| Combo & Conversion | 5 | Card text is a flavour line with no effect, and combo data records 0 appearances, so it builds nothing from a realistic start (verified; observed). |
| Resource Economy | 15 | No draw, search, or recursion, and it is a one-for-zero body in the sense of spending a card for a board presence (inference from text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 0 | No effect, so it provides no negation, removal, or hand-trap reach (verified). |
| Material Utility | 40 | Level 3 EARTH Insect is a clean generic material and cannot be blanked, but no combo material use is observed (inference from text; observed absence). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 25 | Nothing to negate, but no recovery or multi-zone presence; its only value is the body itself (inference). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 80 | Vanilla, cheap, no garnet or lock, and a single copy is trivial to run (verified from text). |
Calculation
Weight profile: Primary role Material body / Normal; no secondary role blend. Intrinsic ≈ 40.5, Deck ≈ 35.3, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Clean generic Level 3 EARTH Insect body usable as a material
- Cannot be blanked and has no garnet cost to run
- Appears in multiple archetype homes (Naturia and a no-archetype deck)
Weaknesses
- No effect, so no searching, negation, removal, or combo start
- No observed combo appearances
- Low ATK and no board presence beyond the body
Counters / choke points
- Generic monster removal or bounce, since there is no effect to protect it
Best use
Material body / Normal. Decks: Naturia (observed in 1 sampled deck, inferred as material fodder). Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Card text is a flavour line with no effect; Normal Monster, Level 3, EARTH Insect, 950/700; Appears in 2 of 2 sampled decks at 1 copy each; combo data records 0 appearances
- Observed: Presence in Naturia and a no-archetype deck; Called by the Grave is the top partner, co-occurring in both decks
- Inferred: Usable as a Level 3 material body in Xyz or Synchro lines; Low accessibility beyond a normal summon
- Data gaps: no combos supplied, so combo conversion is text-only inference no guides supplied no banlist token, assumed 3 copies (unlimited) no usage statistics (StatisticsCard), so archetype inclusion is inferred from the deck sample only
