Why it scores here
Crusadia Testament is a Quick-Play support spell whose two modes are a protection effect for Crusadia monster effects and a conditional draw after a Crusadia Link wins a battle. It is in 215 of 215 sampled decks alongside a near-complete Crusadia core, so it is reliably live, but the evidence records no combos and no searcher, so its conversion into board or card advantage is mostly text inference. The score comes from being live, cheap and archetype-locked rather than from raw power: it does not negate anything, cannot be material, and its draw depends on a Link battle. Its archetype lock is a real cost outside Crusadia, which is why the deck-level score is pulled down by a modifier.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 60 | Present in 215 of 215 sampled decks with 100% partner overlap, so it is live in the Crusadia shell, but no searcher or starter route is recorded (observed; route inference from text). |
| Combo & Conversion | 35 | No recorded combo boards, so the card's conversion is text-only: it protects Crusadia effects and adds a conditional draw, not a board (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 45 | The draw equals the Link Rating of a Crusadia Link that destroys by battle, a conditional and one-per-turn gain with no recorded netCardAdvantage (inferred). |
| Effect & Interaction | 15 | Its protection clause stops responses to Crusadia effects but does not negate or remove an opponent card, so opponent interaction is minimal (verified from text). |
| Material Utility | 5 | A Spell Card cannot be used as Link or Synchro material, so its body contributes nothing as material (verified from text). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 40 | No recorded interaction data; as a Quick-Play spell it is exposed to common spell negation and only works in the Crusadia shell (inferred). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 55 | A one-copy-typical slot (average 1.34 copies) with no garnet burden, but it is dead outside a Crusadia deck (observed copy distribution; inference on archetype lock). |
Calculation
Weight profile: Utility / no clear role default (no combo evidence to break a role tie); secondary Combo enabler noted but weights not blended because combos are absent. Intrinsic ≈ 40, Deck ≈ 42, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: Archetype lock (-3). Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Live in 215 of 215 sampled decks alongside a near-full Crusadia core
- Cheap single-copy slot with no garnet cost
- Quick-Play timing; the protection clause can deter responses to Crusadia monster effects
Weaknesses
- Archetype-locked; no value outside Crusadia lists
- No negation or removal of opponent cards
- Cannot be used as material
- Draw clause depends on a Crusadia Link winning a battle
Counters / choke points
- Spell negation and hand traps are not recorded in the evidence; any blanking of the Quick-Play spell removes both modes
Best use
Utility / protection support for the Crusadia core. Decks: Crusadia (archetype 646), Crusadia (archetype 253), Kaiju / Mekk-Knights splash lists, where Crusadia monsters are present. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Card text: opponent cannot respond to Crusadia monster effects this turn; post-damage-calc Link draw equal to Link Rating; once per turn; Spell Card type cannot be material; Present in 215 of 215 sampled decks
- Observed: 100% partner overlap with the Crusadia core (Draco, Arboria, Regulex at 215 of 215); Average 1.34 copies per deck; Inclusion 66.7% in the Crusadia archetype usage sample
- Inferred: Accessibility is live in hand through the Crusadia shell, not via a recorded searcher; Draw value is conditional and modest in practice; Spell negation would remove both modes
- Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo conversion is text-only inference No banlist token; assumed 3 copies (unlimited) No recorded searcher or starter routes for this card No recorded interaction or negation data for the Quick-Play spell
