Ignition Beast Volcannon — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 50 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 48 · Deck: 52 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Removal / Negation
Why it scores here
Ignition Beast Volcannon is a Fusion Monster whose only effect is a one-for-one trade: on Fusion Summon it destroys one opponent monster and itself, with bonus damage if both are destroyed. Its score comes from that trade and from a fusion route that is real in the sample (Super Polymerization appears in 52.6% of its decks), not from its 2300 ATK, which earns no points. Its low material and resilience scores reflect that it is a Fusion Summon dependent card with little value once summoned.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 45 | Needs a Machine and a Pyro material plus a Fusion Summon; decks show Super Polymerization in 52.6% of its 76 decks, but there are no combo boards to confirm an opening-hand route (observed + inferred). |
| Combo & Conversion | 35 | The text is a trade-removal with conditional damage and no combo boards exist to show a larger board from it (verified text, combo evidence absent). |
| Resource Economy | 50 | It destroys its own card to remove one opponent monster, so the card count stays even, with damage as the only upside (verified from text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 45 | It removes one opponent monster on Fusion Summon, but the trigger is tied to the Fusion Summon itself and it is destroyed in the process (verified text, inferred strength). |
| Material Utility | 20 | As a Fusion Monster it is a poor material body, and the text does not show any value when it is used as material (inferred). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 30 | Its effect depends on a Fusion Summon, so a single negate of the summon or the materials ends it before the trigger resolves (inferred from text). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 40 | It takes an Extra Deck slot and needs a Fusion route, but it is spread across 36 archetypes and has no garnet or lock text (observed deck spread, inferred cost). |
Calculation
Weight profile: Primary role only (Removal / Negation); no secondary role, so no blend. Intrinsic ≈ 48, Deck ≈ 52, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Destroys one opponent monster on Fusion Summon, with conditional damage if both monsters are destroyed
- Fusion route is real in the sample: Super Polymerization in 52.6% of its decks
- Spread across 36 archetypes, so it is not tied to one home
Weaknesses
- Trades itself for one monster, so it does not generate card advantage
- Requires a Machine and a Pyro material plus a Fusion Summon, which limits accessibility
- No combo boards recorded, so its conversion is text-only
- Poor material value once it is on the field
Counters / choke points
- Negating the Fusion Summon or its materials before the trigger resolves (inferred from text)
- Destroying or banishing the Fusion Summoned card in response to the trigger (inferred from text)
Best use
Fusion-based one-for-one removal with conditional damage. Decks: Vanquish Soul, Volcanic, Cyber Dragon. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Fusion Monster, 2300 ATK / 1600 DEF, Machine and Pyro material requirement; On Fusion Summon: destroy one opponent monster and itself, with damage if both are destroyed; 76 of the sampled decks run it, mostly main deck (80.3% in gameplay type 7)
- Observed: Super Polymerization appears in 52.6% of its decks; Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring appears in 64.5% of its decks; 36 distinct archetypes in the deck sample
- Inferred: The card is a Fusion-dependent one-for-one trade rather than a board presence; Negating the Fusion Summon or materials stops the trigger
- Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo conversion is text-only inference no guides supplied no banlist token — assumed 3 copies (unlimited) no usage statistics (StatisticsCard) — archetype inclusion % inferred from deck sample only
