Dipity — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 59 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 59 · Deck: 59 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Material body / Normal
Why it scores here
Dipity has no effect text in the evidence, only flavor text, so it converts into value only as a plain Level 4 LIGHT Fiend body. Its score comes from that body's material and deck-slot value, not from any ability. The 400-of-400 deck inclusion, with one copy per deck across 39 archetypes, confirms it is a reliable, cheap, portable slot, but frequency is not power (guardrail 3). The 0 ATK / 0 DEF values in the record look like a data anomaly and were not used to score.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 70 | Present in all 400 sampled decks at about one copy each, but no searcher or access route is listed in the evidence (observed, inferred route). |
| Combo & Conversion | 20 | No combo boards recorded and no card text beyond flavor, so it builds nothing on its own (speculation kept out of the score; verified absence of effect text). |
| Resource Economy | 40 | A body with no effect is a one-for-one, neither drawing nor refuelling (verified from description, which contains no effect). |
| Effect & Interaction | 0 | No effect text, so no negation, removal or hand-trap reach (verified). |
| Material Utility | 65 | Level 4 LIGHT Fiend with no effect is a clean material that cannot be blanked; the Fiend/LIGHT/Level 4 fit to Fiendsmith material is inferred (verified stats, inferred use). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 50 | Nothing to negate, so interaction does not remove any value, but it offers no recovery or multi-zone presence (verified text plus inference). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 90 | One copy per deck, no garnet or lock restriction, and widely accepted in multiple homes (observed). |
Calculation
Weight profile: Primary role Material body / Normal; no secondary role blend. Intrinsic ≈ 59, Deck ≈ 59, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Included in every sampled deck at a single copy, so the slot is cheap and portable
- Clean Level 4 LIGHT Fiend body that cannot be blanked by negation
- Spans 39 archetypes, so it does not depend on one home
Weaknesses
- No effect text, so it contributes no interaction, card advantage or board on its own
- Recorded combo evidence is absent, so conversion value is unverified
- Recorded ATK/DEF of 0 is inconsistent with a normal monster and needs a data check
Counters / choke points
- Any removal or bounce simply removes the body, with nothing lost or gained
Best use
Material body / Normal. Decks: Fiendsmith, Primite, Sky Striker. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: No effect text; description is flavor only; Normal Monster, LIGHT, Fiend, Level 4; Present in 400 of 400 sampled decks at 1 copy average
- Observed: Spans 39 archetypes; Listed in the Fiendsmith Control guide's Staple section
- Inferred: Fiend/LIGHT/Level 4 fits Fiendsmith material use; No searcher route, so access depends on the deck's own engine
- Data gaps: no combos supplied, so combo conversion is text-only inference no effect text beyond flavor, so rules reliability is limited ATK and DEF recorded as 0 for a normal monster, which needs checking no banlist token, so 3 copies is assumed no usage statistics (StatisticsCard) available
