Arsenal Bug — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 41 ± 10 · Confidence: Low
- Intrinsic: 41 · Deck: — · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Material body
Why it scores here
Arsenal Bug is a Level 3 Earth Insect body whose printed 2000 ATK/DEF is only kept while you control another Insect; alone it drops to 1000/1000. The score comes mostly from its value as a generic Level 3 Earth material and from being a clean, lock-free card to run. High printed ATK earns nothing here, and the stat condition works against the card when it is the only Insect on the field. With no deck, combo, or guide evidence, Final equals Intrinsic and the score is provisional.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 25 | No searcher, draw effect, or deck or combo presence is evidenced, so it is only reachable by normal draw (observed: 0 decks, 0 combos). |
| Combo & Conversion | 20 | The text has no board-building or follow-up effect, and no recorded combo uses it (verified text, observed: 0 combos). |
| Resource Economy | 30 | The text gives no card advantage, refuel, or recursion, so it is one body for one card (verified text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 5 | The text has no negation, removal, or hand-trap effect (verified text). |
| Material Utility | 55 | It is a Level 3 Earth Insect, a generic material fit, and negating its effect still leaves a 2000 body when another Insect is present (verified text, inferred). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 35 | The ATK/DEF condition is self-restricting, so it drops to 1000 when alone and has no redundancy or multi-zone use (verified text, inferred). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 60 | It has no garnet, lock, or restriction, so it is cheap to run, but no deck evidence shows it being run (verified text, observed: 0 decks). |
Calculation
Weight profile: Primary role Material body / Normal; no secondary role. Intrinsic ≈ 41, Deck ≈ —, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: Intrinsic (no decks and no combos; Deck = null)

Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Level 3 Earth Insect Effect Monster with printed 2000 ATK / 2000 DEF; If you control no other Insect-Type monsters, ATK and DEF become 1000
- Observed: 0 decks, 0 combos, and 0 guides supplied
- Inferred: As a generic Level 3 Earth Insect, it is a usable material body; With its effect negated it still becomes a 2000 body when another Insect is present
- Data gaps: no decks supplied — deck/synergy signals unavailable no combos supplied — combo conversion is text-only inference no guides supplied no banlist token — assumed 3 copies (unlimited) no usage statistics (StatisticsCard) — archetype inclusion % inferred from deck sample only
