Coach King Giantrainer — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 58 ± 7 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 56.4 · Deck: 58.3 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Boss/End-board · Secondary: Extender
Why it scores here
Coach King Giantrainer converts its Xyz material into a card draw and up to 800 damage, up to three times per turn, which keeps a Level 8 board active. Its power comes from that repeatable material-to-value loop and from a broad home across 68 archetypes, not from its 2800 ATK. The score is held down by the self-imposed Battle Phase lock, the absence of any negation or removal, and a single combo sample that shows no starter, material or payoff role.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 65 | Needs three Level 8 monsters to summon and is spread across 68 archetypes, but the pack records no starter or searched route (observed). |
| Combo & Conversion | 60 | The one recorded board (power index 87) shows a boss and an end monster with net +3 card advantage, yet the sample is a single board (observed, thin). |
| Resource Economy | 60 | Each activation trades one detached material for one draw plus optional 800 damage, a roughly even exchange that can repeat up to three times (inferred from text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 30 | Its only opponent-facing effect is 800 damage; it has no negation, removal or hand-trap reach (verified from text). |
| Material Utility | 35 | As a Level 8 Xyz body its material value is not evidenced anywhere in the pack (gap, speculation only). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 45 | Its effect requires materials on the field and stops it from attacking the turn it activates, so one board interaction can end the line (inferred from text). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 75 | One copy per deck, no garnets, and a single Extra Deck slot; the only restriction is the self-imposed Battle Phase lock (observed from decks and text). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Boss/End-board + 0.3 Extender. Intrinsic ≈ 56.4, Deck ≈ 58.3, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: self-locking restriction (-2). Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Repeatable draw plus up to 800 damage per detached material, up to three times per turn (verified from text)
- Broad home: appears in 68 archetypes and 100% of Dark World inclusion in StatisticsCard (observed)
- Single-copy, no-garnet deck slot that fits many Level 8 homes (observed)
Weaknesses
- No negation, removal or hand-trap reach (verified from text)
- Self Battle Phase lock on every activation (verified from text)
- Needs three Level 8 monsters and a material per activation (verified from text)
- Only one combo sample, with no starter, searched, material or payoff role (observed)
Counters / choke points
- No counter evidence is in the pack.
- Inferred: responding to the material-detach cost or negating the activation stops the draw and damage (inferred from text).
Best use
Boss/End-board engine: draw and 800 damage per detached material, with a Battle Phase lock. Decks: Dark World, Fire King, Danger!, Horus. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Level 8 Xyz requiring three Level 8 monsters; Detach 1 material: draw 1 and show it; 800 damage to the opponent if it was a monster; Cannot Battle Phase the turn the effect is activated; Effect usable up to three times per turn; Legal in TCG, OCG, MasterDuel and DuelLinks; legal copies lists duellink only
- Observed: Appears in 400 of 400 sampled decks, distributed over 68 archetypes; Top archetype homes: Dark World 20.5%, Fire King 14.8%, Danger! 11.5%, Horus 9.8%; Top partners at 35-44% co-occurrence; StatisticsCard inclusion: Dark World 100%, Horus 66.7%, typical copies 1; One combo board with power index 87, net card advantage +3, one boss and one end monster
- Inferred: Each activation is roughly a one-for-one material-to-card exchange with optional damage; The Battle Phase lock limits its use as an attacker in the same turn; Responding to the detach cost can stop the effect
- Data gaps: Only one combo sample, and its combo role list is empty No starter role, searched-for role or material role evidence decks running it in the Main Deck equals total decks (400) although the archetype rows cover about 65% of decks; the count may be a matching artifact legal copies lists only duellink usage statistics covers only 2 archetypes No counter or metagame evidence No top-card ranking
