Griffore — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 45 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 49 · Deck: 42 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Material body
Why it scores here
Griffore is a Level 4 EARTH Beast Normal Monster with no effect text in the evidence; the only description is flavor text about its hide. Its score comes from being a clean, always-live Level 4 body that converts to material without any effect to negate. Its 1200 ATK and 1500 DEF earn nothing, and the four sampled decks (three of them Blue-Eyes) confirm it is played but do not show a distinct strength.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 35 | No searcher or starter route in the evidence; it is a plain hand-or-draw body, appearing in 4 of 400 sampled decks at one copy each (observed, with the route itself inferred). |
| Combo & Conversion | 20 | No combo boards are recorded, and the card has no effect text to convert into a board on its own (verified: description is flavor-only; combo evidence empty). |
| Resource Economy | 10 | No card advantage, refuel, or search clause in the text (verified from description). |
| Effect & Interaction | 5 | No negation, removal, or hand-trap clause in the text (verified from description). |
| Material Utility | 60 | Level 4 EARTH Beast is a generic material fit, and with no effect it cannot be blanked, so the body converts fully (inferred from stats and text). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 40 | Has no interaction to survive, but also no effect to protect; it dies to any targeted removal and offers no recursion (inferred from text). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 70 | Single-copy, no garnet or lock restriction, and no banlist token supplied, so it is cheap to run (verified from decks and legal formats). |
Calculation
Weight profile: Primary Material body / Normal; no secondary roles. Intrinsic ≈ 49, Deck ≈ 42, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Clean, effect-free Level 4 EARTH body that converts fully to material

- Only 4 sampled decks, 3 of them Blue-Eyes, so the usage is thin

Counters / choke points
- Any targeted removal or bounce
