Cyclone Boomerang — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 33 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 34 · Deck: 35 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Utility · Secondary: Board breaker
Why it scores here
Cyclone Boomerang is a single-target equip for Elemental HERO Wildheart: +500 ATK, plus a conditional burn-and-board-wipe that only fires when the equipped monster is destroyed by a card effect and sent to the Graveyard. Its power depends almost entirely on Wildheart being live, and the trigger condition is narrow, so it converts little in practice. The 500 ATK and the Spell/Trap destruction do not earn points on their own; the score reflects how rarely the full effect can be reached, and the 6-deck HERO sample only confirms that the card fits the HERO shell.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 40 | Playable only with Wildheart on the field, and Wildheart appears in 5 of 6 decks, but no searcher or combo route is recorded (observed deck partner data, inferred route). |
| Combo & Conversion | 25 | Zero recorded combos; the board-wipe and burn are text-only and their realistic trigger conditions are unverified (inferred from text). |
| Resource Economy | 20 | One card for no return, with at most chip damage from the conditional effect (verified from card text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 35 | Destroys all Spells and Traps on the field only after an effect destruction of the equipped monster, so interaction is conditional and not reliably available (verified from text, inferred reliability). |
| Material Utility | 5 | Equip Spell with no material or summoning value of its own (verified from card type). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 25 | The whole effect depends on one equipped monster surviving to be destroyed by an effect, so one removal or negate ends it (inferred from text). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 45 | One-copy slot in a HERO deck with a single-monster restriction and no garnet risk, averaging 1.33 copies per deck (observed deck stat). |
Calculation
Weight profile: Utility default weights; Board breaker secondary role recorded but its profile is not blended because the effect is conditional. Intrinsic ≈ 34, Deck ≈ 35, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: Single-monster equip restriction (-2). Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Adds +500 ATK to Wildheart, a live HERO body in 5 of 6 sampled decks
- Conditional burn scales with the number of Spells and Traps destroyed
- Low copy count and no garnet cost, so it is cheap to run
Weaknesses
- Requires Wildheart on the field, so it is dead without that monster
- Effect only fires when the equipped monster is destroyed by a card effect, not by battle or cost
- No recorded combos or searcher route, so reliable access is unproven
Counters / choke points
- Negation or removal of Wildheart before the destruction trigger
- Opponent's use of Spell/Trap removal is irrelevant here, but any effect-free battle kill avoids the trigger entirely (inferred from text)
Best use
Utility. Decks: Elemental HERO (Heroic). Suggested copies: 1.
