Barian Untopia — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 48 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium

Why it scores here
Barian Untopia is a Field Spell (race Field) with two conditional effects: it shields specific Number, CXyz and Number C monsters from opponent card effects and targeting, and, once per turn, when a Rank-Up-Magic Spell Special Summons an Xyz Monster, it attaches an opponent's monster as that Xyz's material. The score comes from a real but narrow conversion: the attach effect only triggers on a Rank-Up-Magic line, and there are no recorded boards to show how often that happens. High deck presence (100 of 100 decks, mostly one copy) confirms it is a reliably played staple, but that frequency does not raise the score; the 0-combo record means no conversion or resource stats were earned. The card is cheap to run and has no material value of its own.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 55 | Main-deck in all 100 sampled decks, but no searcher or combo starter evidence exists to show how it is reached (observed deck count; route inferred). |
| Combo & Conversion | 35 | No recorded combos; the Rank-Up-Magic attach effect is text-only conversion (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 25 | Text shows no draw, search, or recursion, and no card advantage is recorded (verified from text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 45 | Shields Number 101–107, CXyz and Number C monsters from opponent effects and targeting, and attaches an opponent monster on a Rank-Up (verified from text; frequency unobserved). |
| Material Utility | 10 | It is a Spell, so it provides no material or level body (verified from frame type). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 40 | A Field Spell that stays on the field, but the Rank-Up trigger needs a live Xyz summon and the protection covers only certain monsters (inferred). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 70 | Single-copy average (1.27) with no garnet or lock restriction; it costs one main-deck slot (observed from deck copies). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Utility + 0.3 Board breaker. Intrinsic ≈ 46, Deck ≈ 50, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Played in all 100 sampled decks across 25 archetypes (observed)
- Shields specific Number and CXyz monsters from opponent card effects (verified)
- Rank-Up-Magic synergy can attach an opponent monster as material (verified text, observed partners)
Weaknesses
- No recorded combo boards, so conversion is text-only (data gap)
- Attach effect needs a Rank-Up-Magic Xyz Summon and is once per turn (verified)
- Protection covers only certain monsters; it does nothing for the rest of the board (verified)
Counters / choke points
- Opponent cards that destroy or negate Field Spells
- Targeting the Xyz monster before the Rank-Up trigger resolves (inferred)
Best use
Field Spell support for Barian's Rank-Up-Magic lines and Number/CXyz protection. Decks: Barian's Rank-Up decks, Galaxy Photon, Battlin' Boxer, Shark. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Field Spell (race Field) with shielding and Rank-Up-Magic attach effects, from card text; Played in 100 of 100 sampled decks, 1.27 average copies (observed deck stats)
- Observed: Co-occurs with Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring in 69% of decks (observed, partly a generic staple effect); 25 distinct archetypes in the deck sample (observed)
- Inferred: Accessibility is moderate: no searcher or combo route is recorded, so reach is assumed from deck presence; Rank-Up-Magic attach value is conditional on the line being active
- Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo conversion is text-only inference no guides supplied no usage statistics (StatisticsCard) — archetype inclusion % inferred from deck sample only no banlist token — assumed 3 copies (unlimited)
