Dyna Base — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 57 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 57.4 · Deck: 57 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Combo enabler · Secondary: Material body
Why it scores here
Dyna Base's 0 ATK and 2100 DEF earned nothing; its score comes from a conditional hand-summon (only when your LP is lower than the opponent's) and a once-per-turn Main Phase Fusion Summon that can use the card itself plus other hand or field monsters as material. Its body is a generic Level 4 EARTH Machine, so it still has material value when its effects are negated. The deck sample (44 decks, 12 archetypes, Ancient Gear cluster partners) confirms the card is routinely played, but that confirms accessibility, not intrinsic strength, and the lack of combo data keeps the score in the middle band.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 50 | Hand-summon is conditional on LP being behind, and there is no as_starter or as_searched data, but 44 sampled decks run it across 12 archetypes (observed). |
| Combo & Conversion | 62 | The Fusion effect turns itself plus hand or field monsters into a Fusion Monster, which is real conversion once Fusion targets are present, but no combo examples or power_index exist (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 45 | It spends itself and other cards as Fusion material for one Extra Deck Fusion, which is roughly card-neutral with no refuel or search (inferred). |
| Effect & Interaction | 5 | No negation, removal, or hand-trap effect is described in the text (verified). |
| Material Utility | 60 | A Level 4 EARTH Machine with 2100 DEF is a generic material body, and it still works as material if its effects are negated (inferred). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 45 | Two separate once-per-turn effects in hand and field give some multi-zone reach, but a single negate on the Fusion effect ends the line (inferred). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 70 | Typically 1 to 2 copies (avg 1.95), no garnet, and no self-lock clause in the text; only the LP condition restricts use (observed). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Combo enabler + 0.3 Material body. Intrinsic ≈ 57.4, Deck ≈ 57, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Fusion engine that can use itself as material, converting one hand or field card into a Fusion Summon (verified)
- Hand-summonable when LP is behind, which helps recover from a losing position (verified)
- Level 4 EARTH Machine body is a generic material that still works when its effects are negated (inferred)
- Included in 44 sampled decks across 12 archetypes, with a consistent Ancient Gear partner cluster (observed)
Weaknesses
- Hand-summon requires your LP to be lower than the opponent's (verified)
- Each effect is once per turn (verified)
- 0 ATK, so the body contributes little on the field beyond material (verified)
- No combo or guide evidence to confirm how far the Fusion line converts (data gap)
Counters / choke points
- No counter data supplied; the hand-summon and the Fusion effect are both interruptible by generic interaction (inferred)
Best use
Combo enabler (Fusion engine) with material-body backup. Decks: Ancient Gears, Karakuri, Jinzo, Infinitrack, Dogmatika. Suggested copies: 2.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Hand-summon requires LP lower than the opponent's; Two effects, each once per turn; 0 ATK / 2100 DEF, Level 4 EARTH Machine; Included in 44 sampled decks across 12 archetypes
- Observed: Ancient Gear partner cluster at about 41% co-deck rate; Average 1.95 copies per deck
- Inferred: Fusion line is roughly card-neutral; Body is a generic material even when effects are negated; Single negate on the Fusion effect ends the line
- 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 no counter list supplied
