Dual Assembwurm — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 52 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 52 · Deck: 53 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Removal / Negation · Secondary: Extender, Material body
Why it scores here
Dual Assembwurm converts its access into value mainly through a once-per-turn field removal (banish a monster with ATK at or below its own) and a hand/GY Special Summon that costs two other Cyberse and halves its ATK. Its cost-heavy entry and halved body keep resource economy low, and no combo evidence was supplied, so the conversion score rests on card text alone. Its deck presence is concentrated in Monarch lists (16 of 33 decks, with Monarch staples as top partners), which confirms it is a real and practical pick, but it earns no points for its 2800 ATK or Level 8 body.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 55 | Live from hand or GY when two other Cyberse are available, and it appears in 33 recent decks across 16 archetypes, but no starter or searched appearances are recorded (observed + inferred). |
| Combo & Conversion | 40 | The text converts one cost into a single halved-ATK body plus an optional removal; no combo boards were supplied, so the conversion is text-only inference (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 25 | The hand/GY summon nets a body for banishing two cards, and the field removal costs a hand card, so there is no recorded refuel or card advantage (verified from text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 50 | A once-per-turn banish of a field monster with ATK at or below its own is situational, and the halved ATK limits the threshold after a hand/GY summon (verified from text, inferred for scope). |
| Material Utility | 50 | Level 8 DARK Cyberse is a clean generic material, but the halved ATK and the banish costs make it awkward to use as material on its own (inferred). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 55 | It works from hand, field and GY across turns, but the summon depends on two other Cyberse being present and no redundancy evidence exists (inferred). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 60 | Used 1 to 2 copies in decks with no garnet or lock restriction, and the average is 1.24 copies per deck (observed). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Removal / Negation + 0.3 Extender. Intrinsic ≈ 52, Deck ≈ 53, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Hand and GY Special Summon gives a body from a dead card
- Once-per-turn field removal with a hard ATK ceiling tied to its own ATK
- Generic Level 8 DARK Cyberse body fits common Cyberse material routes
- Present in 33 recent decks across 16 archetypes
Weaknesses
- Requires two other Cyberse to be banished for the hand/GY summon
- Halved ATK after summon limits the removal threshold
- Removal is capped by its own ATK and costs a card from hand
- No combo evidence supplied, so board conversion is unproven
Counters / choke points
- No counter evidence in the pack; generic handling of the GY/hand Special Summon or the once-per-turn removal would blank its role (inferred)
Best use
Cyberse-based removal with a hand/GY Special Summon. Decks: Monarch, Cynet, Mayakashi Shiranui. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Hand/GY effect banishes 2 other Cyberse to Special Summon, with ATK halved; Once-per-turn field effect banishes a monster with ATK at or below its own ATK; Level 8 DARK Cyberse Effect Monster, 2800/1000
- Observed: Present in 33 recent decks, 16 of which are Monarch (48.5%); Average 1.24 copies per deck, max 2; No combo appearances recorded
- Inferred: Primary role is removal with a summon cost, not a pure starter; Combo conversion is text-only, so the 40 score is a cautious estimate
- Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo conversion is text-only inference no guides supplied no banlist token — assumed 3 copies (unlimited) no usage statistics (StatisticsCard) — archetype inclusion % inferred from deck sample only
