Destroyersaurus — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 54 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 55 · Deck: 54 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Searcher/Tutor · Secondary: Material body
Why it scores here
Destroyersaurus is a discard-to-search body: it converts itself from hand into one named "Jurassic World" from the Deck, a one-for-one that keeps the board clean. Its score comes from reliable access to that search and from being a cheap, single-copy slot that fits 11 sampled decks. Its 1800 ATK and Level 4 body earn almost nothing on their own, and there is no combo or board evidence showing it converts into a strong end state, so the score stays in the middle of the scale.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 62 | Discard-from-hand search gives it a live route once drawn, but no combo or as_searched evidence confirms how often it is reached in practice (verified text; observed in 11 decks, inferred reliability). |
| Combo & Conversion | 45 | The text converts one card into one named search, with no combo boards recorded to show a larger conversion (verified text; no combo data, inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 50 | Discarding itself to search one card is a neutral card exchange with no repeated refuel or extra advantage in the text (verified). |
| Effect & Interaction | 0 | The text contains no negation, removal, or opponent-facing effect (verified). |
| Material Utility | 50 | A Level 4 Earth Dinosaur body is a usable material, but no as_material combo data confirms its use (verified stats for level/attribute/race; inferred usage). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 40 | The effect is a single search with no recursion or multi-zone reach, and a discard cost leaves it exposed while in hand (verified text; inferred). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 70 | It is a single-copy slot (avg 1.27 copies per deck) with no garnet or lock restriction in the text (observed decks; verified text). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Searcher/Tutor + 0.3 Material body. Intrinsic ≈ 55, Deck ≈ 54, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Searches a named card from the Deck on discard, a one-for-one that does not spend a board slot
- Present in 11 sampled decks across 8 archetypes, with Jurassic World as a partner in 9 of them (observed)
- Single-copy slot with no garnet or lock restriction in its text
Weaknesses
- No board effect and no opponent interaction
- Discard cost means it must already be in hand, and no combo evidence shows when it is played
- The search is for one named card, so it offers little flexibility beyond that target
Counters / choke points
- Hand disruption or discard effects that strip it before it is activated (inferred from its hand-cost structure)
- Opponents who ignore a card that only searches, since its text gives no board pressure
Best use
Searcher/Tutor (secondary: Material body). Decks: Jurrac, Scrap, Danger!. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Effect text: discard to Graveyard, then add 1 "Jurassic World" from Deck to hand; Level 4, Earth, Dinosaur, 1800 ATK / 1100 DEF (ATK not scored); Formats: TCG, OCG, MasterDuel
- Observed: Appears in 11 sampled decks (8 distinct archetypes), 1.27 average copies per deck; Jurassic World co-appears in 9 of 11 decks; Gameplay mix: mostly gameplay type 4 (7 of 11 decks)
- Inferred: Searcher role is the primary function, based on the text and not on combo data; Material body role is secondary, based on a Level 4 body with no combo confirmation; Hand-disruption counters follow from the discard-cost structure
- Data gaps: no combos supplied: starter, material, and payoff roles are text-only inference no guides supplied no usage statistics (StatisticsCard): inclusion % is from the 11-deck sample only no banlist token; assumed 3 copies (unlimited) because legal_copies is empty no rulings supplied; the text has no once-per-turn clause, so none is assumed role_hint_tags are all false although the text is a searcher; the hints were not trusted the searched card's own type and text are not in the evidence
