Guardragon Reincarnation — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 45 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 43.7 · Deck: 45.5 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Starter / Combo enabler · Secondary: Extender
Why it scores here
Guardragon Reincarnation converts Link Monsters already on the field or in the GY into one Fusion Monster from the Extra Deck. That is a real but single-step board conversion, with no search, no card advantage and no interaction. The Fusion bodies it produces earn nothing on their own stats; the score reflects the access requirements (a Fusion in the Extra Deck plus Link fodder) and the consistent one-copy presence in the Crusadia and World Legacy shells. Combo data is absent, so conversion is text-only inference.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 45 | Needs a Fusion Monster in the Extra Deck and Link Monsters on field or GY, with no searcher or combo route in the evidence to confirm it is reliably live (inferred from text; 3 decks only). |
| Combo & Conversion | 55 | Text shows one Fusion Summon from Link materials, a one-step board conversion, but no recorded boards confirm the follow-up (inferred from text). |
| Resource Economy | 40 | Spends itself and the banished Link materials to gain one Fusion, which is roughly even with no refuel or search (inferred from text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 5 | No negation, removal or hand-trap effect in the text, so it provides no opponent interaction (verified). |
| Material Utility | 0 | A Spell card cannot be used as material, so this axis is zero for the card body itself (verified from card type). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 40 | One Quick-Play activation per turn with no recovery, and it depends on materials staying in field or GY, so a single response can end it (verified text, inferred impact). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 45 | Run as one copy in each of 3 decks with no garnet or lock, but it needs a specific Fusion and Link shell, so splashing is poor (observed decks, inferred restriction). |

- No search, card advantage or interaction (verified text)

Counters / choke points
- Negation of the activation, or removal of the Link materials before it resolves (inferred from text)
Best use
Fusion enabler from Link materials. Decks: Crusadia, World Legacy. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Card text: Fusion Summon 1 Fusion Monster from Extra Deck by banishing Link-monster Fusion Materials from field or GY, once per turn; Card type is Quick-Play Spell, available in TCG, OCG and MasterDuel; 3 of 3 sample decks run exactly 1 copy in the main deck
- Observed: Monster Reborn, World Legacy Succession and World Chalice Guardragon Almarduke appear in 3 of 3 decks; Crusadia (2 decks) and World Legacy (1 deck) are the only archetypes in the sample
- Inferred: The Link-material restriction points at Guardragon-style Fusion Monsters; Quick-Play timing follows the standard rule for that frame; Accessibility depends on a Fusion Monster being in the Extra Deck
- Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo conversion is text-only inference No guides supplied No banlist token, so 3 copies (unlimited) is assumed No usage statistics (StatisticsCard), so inclusion is inferred from the 3-deck sample only No evidence of Extra Deck Fusion availability or Link-material card types for the partners
