Elemental HERO Sparkman — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 65 ± 6 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 65 · Deck: 63 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Material body
Why it scores here
Sparkman is a vanilla Level 4 LIGHT Warrior Normal Monster with no effect text in the evidence (the description is flavor only), so it earns its score as a clean, always-legal material body for Elemental HERO Fusion and Polymerization lines. Its 1600 ATK and 400/400 deck inclusion are not scored as power; the inclusion confirms that it is a reliable, cheap, generic body across 40 archetypes. It has no combo, resource, or interaction output of its own, and the lack of combo evidence keeps the score in the middle band.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 62 | Drawn from the deck rather than searched, and present in all 400 sampled decks at about 1.3 copies average (observed; no searcher evidence, starter role and searched-for role are both 0 because no combos were supplied). |
| Combo & Conversion | 35 | No combo boards were supplied, so any conversion from Sparkman is inferred from its vanilla body and its co-occurrence with Polymerization (211 co-decks) and Miracle Fusion (176 co-decks) (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 20 | No card advantage, draw, search, or recursion in the evidence; it is a body only (verified from card type and absent effect text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 5 | No effect text, so it provides no negation, removal, or hand-trap reach (verified). |
| Material Utility | 80 | Vanilla Level 4 LIGHT Warrior with no effect to negate, so it remains a clean material whether or not anything else happens (verified from card fields; material role is not measured, so the usage side is inferred). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 55 | Nothing on the card can be negated, but it does nothing once on the field, so survival is only useful as material (inferred). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 85 | Normal Monster with a 1.3 average copy count and 400/400 main-deck inclusion; it is a near free-roll body that can be run in multiple copies without locking the deck (observed from deck data). |
Calculation
Weight profile: Material body / Normal profile applied directly (no secondary blend). Intrinsic ≈ 65, Deck ≈ 63, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: Splashable, near free-roll body (1). Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Clean material body for Elemental HERO Fusion and Polymerization lines
- Vanilla with no effect that can be negated or blanked
- Low deck-building cost and tolerant of multiple copies
- Appears in 40 distinct archetypes, so it is portable across HERO homes
Weaknesses
- No effect of its own, so it does not convert a hand into board or advantage
- Dead in hand unless a Fusion or Polymerization route is live
- No combo evidence was supplied, so its conversion value is inferred rather than measured
Counters / choke points
- Nothing to counter directly; the body is not interactive, so the real risk is the Fusion or Polymerization route being shut off
Best use
Material body for Elemental HERO Fusion lines. Decks: Heroic, Elemental Heros. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Normal Monster, LIGHT Warrior, Level 4, 1600 ATK / 1400 DEF with no effect text in the evidence; Present in 400 of 400 sampled decks, 1.3 copies average
- Observed: Co-occurs with Polymerization in 211 decks and Miracle Fusion in 176 decks; Spread across 40 archetypes and 4 gameplay types
- Inferred: Works as a clean Fusion material because it has no effect to negate; Legal copies assumed at 3 (no banlist token supplied)
- Data gaps: no combos supplied, so combo conversion, material role, and starter role are not measured no banlist token, legal copies empty; assumed 3 copies no effect text beyond flavor, so the body is read as vanilla guide mention is about Fusion materials generally and does not name this card's role
