Chronicle Sorceress — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 52 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 50 · Deck: 54 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Combo enabler · Secondary: Material body
Why it scores here
Chronicle Sorceress is scored as a one-copy Dark Magician-family fuel effect, not on its 1250 ATK Level 4 body. Its once-per-turn text sends one Deck card to the GY, but it is not a searcher and the recorded boards show it never acting as starter, searched, material or payoff (0 of 5 combos), so accessibility and combo conversion stay low. The average board power index of 94.4 comes from the Dark Magician boards it appears in, and is not credited to the card itself.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 40 | Not a searcher and no evidence it is reliably live in hand; it runs in 108 decks at about 1.17 copies, but 0 of 5 combos show it as starter or searched (observed). |
| Combo & Conversion | 35 | Its effect fuels the GY rather than building a board; it is in 5 of 5 sampled combos but only as end-board in 1 (observed), and the 94.4 power index is board-level (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 55 | Sends one Deck card to the GY with no card advantage stated in the text, so the net is roughly even (verified). |
| Effect & Interaction | 10 | The text has no negation, removal or disruption against the opponent (verified). |
| Material Utility | 55 | A Level 4 DARK Spellcaster body is a generic material, but the evidence shows 0 of 5 combos using it as material (verified). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 45 | Its effect is once per turn with two attribute-based modes, and the evidence does not state its activation zone, so resilience is moderate (verified). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 70 | Typically one copy (95 of 108 decks), no garnet or lock stated in the text, so it is cheap to run (verified). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Combo enabler + 0.3 Material body. Intrinsic ≈ 50, Deck ≈ 54, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Two attribute modes cover two Dark Magician-family lines: Blue-Eyes White Dragon-mentioning cards and Dark Magician-mentioning cards (verified)
- Deck-to-GY effect that feeds GY-based Dark Magician lines (inferred from text)
- Runs at about one copy in 108 decks, so it fits a tight slot (observed)
Weaknesses
- Not searchable, and the evidence does not state where it is activated from (data gap)
- Only 5 recorded combos; 0 as starter, searched, material or payoff; 1 as end-board (observed)
- Once per turn, and it only matters inside the Dark Magician family (verified)
Best use
Combo enabler: GY fuel in Dark Magician lines. Decks: Dark Magician (archetype 670), Dark Magician (archetype 5). Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Card text: deck-to-GY effect with LIGHT and DARK modes, once per turn; Present in 108 decks, about 1.17 copies per deck, 95 decks at one copy; Level 4 DARK Spellcaster, 1250 ATK / 1250 DEF
- Observed: Combos: 5 of 5 include the card, 1 as end-board, 0 as starter, searched, material or payoff; Top partners are Dark Magician package cards (Chronicle Magician, The Dark Magicians, Dark Magician Girl); Gameplay spread: 4 gameplay types, largest share 43.5%
- Inferred: Its primary value is GY fuel for Dark Magician-family lines, from the Deck-to-GY text and partner pattern; The 94.4 average board power index reflects the Dark Magician boards it sits in, not the card alone
- Data gaps: no guides supplied no usage statistics (StatisticsCard); archetype inclusion inferred from the deck sample only activation zone or cost not stated in the evidence only 5 recorded combos no banlist token; assumed 3 copies
