Why it scores here
Amazoness Onslaught converts an Amazoness board into extra bodies: once per turn in the Battle Phase it Special Summons an Amazoness from hand with +500 ATK, and if it is destroyed it revives an Amazoness from the GY. Its banish on battle is conditional and only soft interaction. Its high deck count (261 decks, 78.9% in the core Amazoness archetype) confirms it is a reliable, cheap slot for that archetype, not that it is intrinsically strong. Its 2,000 ATK-style stats are irrelevant here; the score rests on the effect text and on its near-zero deck cost, and no combo data supports a higher conversion read.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 55 | Decks run it in 261 of 261 sampled lists, and the strongest partners are Amazoness Village and Amazoness Call, but no combo starter or searched data exists to confirm how often it is live in hand or set (observed deck frequency plus inferred set-zone access). |
| Combo & Conversion | 55 | Text gives a hand-to-board Special Summon plus a +500 ATK buff and a conditional banish, but with 0 recorded combo boards the conversion is text-only inference (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 60 | Hand summon and GY revival both add bodies without card disadvantage, and the banish is free once triggered; no netCardAdvantage data was supplied (inferred from text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 45 | Banish on battle is conditional on an Amazoness attacking into an opponent monster while this card is face-up, making it soft interaction rather than a removal (verified from text, weighed down by the condition). |
| Material Utility | 5 | A Trap card cannot be used as material, so the body contributes nothing here (verified from card type). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 60 | Revival on destruction and the effect that keeps working after it leaves the field give multi-turn recovery, though its once-per-turn limit caps it (verified from text). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 70 | A non-garnet Trap run at 1 to 3 copies with redundant Amazoness partners and no locks (observed from copies per deck avg 1.9 and partner rates). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Extender + 0.3 Recovery/Recursion. Intrinsic ≈ 50, Deck ≈ 55, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Two independent value effects (hand summon in Battle Phase, GY revival on destruction) that work from a set trap
- Near-universal inclusion in its archetype with cheap 1 to 3 copy use
- Clean deckbuilding with redundant Amazoness partners
Weaknesses
- Archetype-locked: only useful when Amazoness monsters are present
- Banish requires a battle and a face-up card, so the disruption is conditional
- Once-per-turn limits on the main effect
Counters / choke points
- Negation or removal of the trap while it is face-up in the Spell & Trap Zone (generic, not evidenced in the pack)
Best use
Extender / recursion engine for Amazoness boards. Decks: Amazoness.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Once-per-turn Battle Phase hand Special Summon of an Amazoness with +500 ATK; Banish of a battled opponent monster while face-up; GY revival of an Amazoness when this card is destroyed; Card type is Continuous Trap, so it cannot be material
- Observed: Present in 261 of 261 sampled decks, 78.9% in archetype 815; Average 1.9 copies per deck, max 3; Partner rates: Amazoness Princess 100%, Amazoness Baby Tiger 93.9%
- Inferred: Set-zone access is reliable via Amazoness Village and Amazoness Call; Conversion from a set trap to a full Amazoness board is plausible from text alone; Generic deck-fit score is capped because the text is archetype-locked
- Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo conversion and starter/searched shares are text-only inference No guides supplied No banlist token, assumed 3 copies (unlimited) distinct archetypes of 21 is inflated by duplicate 'Amazoness' archetype IDs and off-theme names with 1 to 3 decks; it is not a breadth signal typical copies in usage statistics is 1 while decks average 1.9, so the usage figure is not a reliable copy count No resolved dedicated Trap-set or hand-trap data, so the starter-access score is inferred
