Constellar Tellarknights — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 53 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 49 · Deck: 55 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Starter / Combo enabler · Secondary: Extender
Why it scores here
Constellar Tellarknights reliably converts a live Tellarknight/Constellar body from hand or GY into a Special Summon and can transfer an Xyz's materials into a different-Rank Xyz from the Extra Deck, so its value is set by the archetype's bodies rather than by the card itself. It is present in 400 of 400 sampled decks at 1.53 copies on average and in about 99% of decks alongside its archetype partners, which confirms it is a dependable archetype staple, but per guardrail 3 that frequency does not raise the score. It has no interaction, no material value of its own, and an effect that a single hand trap can stop, so the score stays in the low 50s.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 70 | Spell card that is live from hand and appears in 400/400 decks at 1.53 copies (verified deck stat); the summon still needs a Tellarknight/Constellar body in hand or GY (inferred from text). |
| Combo & Conversion | 55 | Hand/GY Special Summon plus Xyz rank-change transfer is a real two-step conversion from the text, but no combo boards were supplied to confirm it (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 55 | The Xyz transfer keeps existing materials and the GY summon recurs a body, giving roughly even card economy with no draw or net advantage shown (inferred). |
| Effect & Interaction | 5 | The card has no negation, removal or hand-trap effect of any kind (verified from text). |
| Material Utility | 5 | A Spell card cannot be used as Xyz or Synchro material; its only material role is indirect via the Xyz it targets (verified from text). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 40 | The effect is once per turn and one activation per turn, and it is a standard hand-trap target (partners include Ash Blossom and Droll & Lock Bird) (verified from text and deck partners). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 60 | One to two copies in a single archetype main deck with no garnets or locks; it costs one main-deck slot in a narrow family (observed from deck data). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Starter + 0.3 Extender. Intrinsic ≈ 49, Deck ≈ 55, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Live from hand and GY, so it is rarely dead in an archetype hand
- Xyz rank-change transfer is a real conversion path into a different Xyz
- Near-universal inclusion in the 400-deck sample with low copy counts
Weaknesses
- No effect of its own beyond summoning and transferring; no interaction, no card advantage
- Entirely dependent on Tellarknight/Constellar bodies being available
- Its effect is stopped by a single hand trap such as Ash Blossom or Droll & Lock Bird
- No combo boards were supplied, so combo conversion is text-only
Counters / choke points
- Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring
- Droll & Lock Bird
- Nibiru-style or hand-trap interaction on the activation (inferred)
Best use
Starter / Combo enabler: hand or GY body summon plus Xyz rank-change transfer. Decks: Tellarknight, Constellar.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Card text: hand/GY Special Summon of a Tellarknight/Constellar monster, and Xyz rank-change transfer from the Extra Deck; Once-per-turn and one-activation-per-turn restrictions; Appears in 400/400 decks, 1.53 copies on average, in 38 archetypes (92% in two families); Spell card with no interaction, negation or removal
- Observed: Partners such as Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring and Droll & Lock Bird appear in 88-93% of decks; usage statistics show 47-100% inclusion across 8 archetypes with typical copies of 1-2
- Inferred: Practical hand/GY live-ness depends on Tellarknight/Constellar bodies being present; Xyz transfer conversion is real but untested in recorded boards; Hand traps are the expected counters
- Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo conversion is text-only inference no banlist token — assumed 3 copies (unlimited) no rulings or average starter count data for resilience/redundancy guide evidence is a single section mention with no card-specific commentary
