Attack Gainer — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 60 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 61 · Deck: 59 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Material body
Why it scores here
Attack Gainer's value is mainly as a clean Level 1 EARTH Warrior Tuner that fits Synchro summons, scored under the Material body profile. Its effect is a soft, conditional -1000 ATK on one opponent monster until the End Phase, and only when it is sent to the Graveyard as Synchro material, so it earns little interaction or combo credit. Its 0 ATK and 0 DEF earn nothing, and the pack has no combo data to lift the score further.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 50 | Played in 33 of the attached decks across 15 archetypes, but no searcher or combo route is recorded, so access is assumed from deck inclusion rather than shown (observed; route inferred). |
| Combo & Conversion | 30 | No recorded boards and no combo examples; the only conversion is the text's Synchro-material trigger that debuffs one monster (verified text; no combo stat). |
| Resource Economy | 20 | The text gives no card advantage, draw, or Graveyard refuel, so the score stays near the low end (verified). |
| Effect & Interaction | 35 | The -1000 ATK debuff is temporary and hits one face-up monster, so it is soft interaction that needs a Synchro summon to fire (verified text; inferred weight). |
| Material Utility | 75 | A Level 1 Tuner with an EARTH Warrior fit is a generic Synchro material, and the body still converts if its effect is negated (verified text; observed in 33 decks). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 50 | A single low-Level body with a Graveyard trigger survives removal only partly, and the effect is lost if it leaves the field before material use (inferred). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 85 | Mostly 1-copy inclusion (27 of 33 decks, average 1.18 copies), with no garnet or lock restriction (observed; verified text). |
Calculation
Weight profile: Single-role Material body / Normal profile; secondary debuff effect is minor and not blended. Intrinsic ≈ 61, Deck ≈ 59, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Level 1 Tuner that fits Synchro summons across many levels
- Usable as Synchro material even when its effect is negated
- Low slot cost: mostly 1-copy inclusion with no garnet restriction
- Spread across 15 archetypes, so it is portable between homes
Weaknesses
- Effect only fires when it is sent to the Graveyard as Synchro material
- The -1000 ATK debuff is temporary and hits one monster
- No searcher or combo route is recorded in the evidence pack
- 0 ATK and 0 DEF give no board presence on their own
Counters / choke points
- Removing or banishing it before it is used as Synchro material stops the trigger (inferred from text)
- Opponent interaction on the Synchro summon removes the material value (inferred from text)
Best use
Level 1 Tuner and Synchro material body with a soft ATK debuff. Decks: Resonator, SPYRAL, Cyber Dragon. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Level 1 Tuner, EARTH Warrior, 0 ATK / 0 DEF from evidence card block; Effect: when sent to the Graveyard as Synchro material, one opponent face-up monster loses 1000 ATK until End Phase; Appears in 33 decks, 27 with one copy, average 1.18 copies per deck
- Observed: Gameplay type 4 in 32 of 33 decks (97%); Across 15 distinct archetypes; Top partners (Reinforcement of the Army, Limit Reverse) appear in about 42–45% of decks; the other top partners are generic staples at about 36%
- Inferred: Material body role follows from the Tuner text and Synchro-only trigger; The ATK debuff is soft interaction and is not a removal effect; Accessibility route is assumed from deck inclusion, since no searcher is recorded
- 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); archetype inclusion inferred from the 33-deck sample only no combo evidence for material role or starter role, so the Synchro material role is text-derived
