Why it scores here
Forest is a Field Spell that gives +200 ATK/DEF to Insect, Beast, Plant and Beast-Warrior monsters on the field. Its value is a stat buff that only matters when the field already holds those monsters, and no combo or interaction evidence supports more than that. It is cheap to run, usually one copy, and appears across 18 archetypes, so it earns modest points for flexibility and deckbuilding cost. High view count and Top-Card presence earned nothing, and the card is not a body or a source of card advantage.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 50 | Drawn like any spell and reachable in 23 sampled decks, with Terraforming as the most common co-played partner (8 decks), which is an observed co-occurrence rather than a confirmed search route (observed; route inference). |
| Combo & Conversion | 30 | Text only: a field-wide buff with no recorded boards, starters, or payoffs, so it converts into a stat bump and little else (verified text; no combo evidence). |
| Resource Economy | 20 | No draw, search, banish, or recursion in the text, so it generates no card advantage (verified). |
| Effect & Interaction | 5 | No negation, removal, or hand-trap reach in the text (verified). |
| Material Utility | 5 | A Field Spell is not a monster and cannot be used as material; the buff only raises the ATK/DEF of monsters that already exist (verified). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 35 | Usable across many archetypes, but a field spell is easily replaced or removed and has no redundancy evidence (inferred). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 70 | Typically one copy per deck, no garnet or lock cost, and easy to splash into a theme that uses those races (observed copies per deck; inference on splash). |
Calculation
Weight profile: Utility / no clear role (default); single role, no blend. Intrinsic ≈ 40, Deck ≈ 44, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Cheap single-copy tech that fits 18 distinct archetypes
- Buffs many bodies at once, so it stays useful when several matching monsters are on the field
- No garnet, lock, or self-restriction cost
Weaknesses
- No recorded combo role (no starter, searched, or payoff evidence)
- Only a stat bump: no draw, search, negation, or removal
- Not a monster and cannot be used as material
- Depends on a board that already contains matching races
Counters / choke points
- Field-spell removal or replacement (inference from card type; no counter evidence supplied)
Best use
Utility field-spell buff in Insect, Beast, Plant or Beast-Warrior boards. Decks: Sự kiện Limit 1, Gate Guardian, Rose Dragon, Sky Striker, Nimble, Melffy, Barbaros, Tenpai Dragon, Ninja. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Field-wide +200 ATK/DEF for Insect, Beast, Plant and Beast-Warrior monsters (card text); Legal in TCG, OCG, MasterDuel and DuelLinks (formats); 23 sampled decks, mostly 1 copy (decks_evidence)
- Observed: Appears in 18 distinct archetypes with a 1-copy majority (decks_evidence); Most common partners: Monster Reborn (52.2%), Big Koala and Sword of Deep-Seated (47.8%) (decks_evidence)
- Inferred: Terraforming as a possible search route for a Field Spell (co-occurrence only; no searcher evidence in the pack); Low resilience to field-spell removal (card type, no measured data)
- Data gaps: no combos supplied: combo conversion is text-only inference no guides supplied no rulings or banlist token: assumed 3 copies (unlimited) no usage statistics (StatisticsCard): archetype inclusion % inferred from the deck sample only
