Why it scores here
Evo-Force is a 1-for-1 conversion: it Tributes an Evoltile monster and Special Summons an Evolsaur from the Deck, so it turns one body into a different body rather than generating card advantage. Its value comes from being a Spell that lands a deck Special Summon in an archetype that runs it in 57 of 57 sampled decks at an average of 2.04 copies, with the Evol shell (71.9% of decks) and a top partner at 100% co-occurrence. High ATK or the Evolsaur's stats earned no points; the score reflects access to the Evolsaur and the requirement of a live Evoltile. Without combo data, the conversion axis is text-only inference.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 60 | Needs an Evoltile monster on the field to tribute, and the sample shows the card as a main-deck staple at 98.2% of decks, which confirms it is live but not a searcher-based route (observed deck stat, text-based access). |
| Combo & Conversion | 60 | Text converts one Evoltile into a Deck Evolsaur and makes the summon count as an Evoltile effect summon, which matters for Evoltile-side triggers (inference from text); combo examples and power index are absent (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 45 | Pure 1-for-1 body swap with no draw, search, or GY refuel in its text, so it is roughly even on cards (verified from card text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 5 | The card has no negation, removal, or disruption clause, so it provides essentially no opponent interaction (verified from card text). |
| Material Utility | 20 | A Spell card that is not itself a material body; its only material-adjacent effect is that the Deck Evolsaur is treated as an Evoltile-effect summon (inferred from text). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 40 | Once activated it resolves in one step, but it can be stopped by responses to the Special Summon it creates; Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring appears among its partners, suggesting that response pattern is common in this sample (inferred, not verified in combo data). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 75 | A single Spell that is played 2 to 3 copies in the sample with no garnet or lock restriction beyond the Evoltile requirement, so it is cheap and clean to run (observed deck stat plus verified text). |
Calculation
Weight profile: Extender primary role (no secondary weights blended). Intrinsic ≈ 49, Deck ≈ 53, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: Archetype-locked restriction (-3). Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Converts one Evoltile into a Deck-searched Evolsaur, a 1-for-1 Special Summon with no life-point or card-economy cost.
- Main-deck staple in the sample: 57 of 57 decks, average 2.04 copies, 98.2% main-deck.
- Strong observed co-occurrence with Evo-Singularity (100%) and Evolzar Dolkka (98.2%), confirming a practical line.
- One slot, no garnet or brick restriction beyond the Evoltile requirement, so it is cheap to run.
Weaknesses
- Requires an Evoltile monster to be on the field to tribute, so it is dead in hand without one.
- Provides no opponent interaction and no card advantage.
- Archetype-locked to Evol: 41 of 57 sampled decks are Evol, and the card has little value outside that shell.
- The Special Summon it creates can be answered by responses that the combo data cannot confirm for this card.
Counters / choke points
- Hand-trap or response effects to the Special Summon it creates; Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring appears among its partners in the sample, so such responses are likely common (inferred, not verified in combo data).
- Opponent removal or negation of the Evoltile before the Spell resolves, which strands the card.
Best use
Extender: converts a live Evoltile into a Deck Evolsaur while keeping the Evoltile-effect trigger.. Decks: Evol. Suggested copies: 2.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Card text: Tribute 1 Evoltile monster; Special Summon 1 Evolsaur monster from your Deck, treated as Special Summoned by an Evoltile effect.; Deck sample: 57 decks, 57 main-deck, average 2.04 copies, Evol 41 decks (71.9%).; Top partner co-occurrence: Evo-Singularity 57 decks (100%), Evolzar Dolkka 56 decks (98.2%).
- Observed: 98.2% of sampled decks run the card in gameplay type 7; 1 deck in gameplay type 4.; Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring co-occurs in 39 decks (68.4%), suggesting response-based interaction is common in the sample.
- Inferred: Treated-as-summoned clause makes Evoltile-triggered effects usable after the Evolsaur summon.; Ash-type responses would be a common interrupt to the Special Summon this card creates.; Archetype lock to Evol limits its value outside that shell.
- Data gaps: no combos supplied; combo conversion, starter/material/payoff roles, and power index are text-only inference no guides supplied no banlist token; assumed 3 copies (unlimited) no usage statistics (StatisticsCard); archetype inclusion inferred from the 57-deck sample only no evidence of how often the Evolsaur summoned by this card is actually used in the sampled decks
