Lightning Conger — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 44 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 45 · Deck: 44 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Material body
Why it scores here
Lightning Conger scores as a plain Level-3 WATER Thunder body. Its 350 ATK and 750 DEF earn nothing. The score comes from being a clean generic material that converts without any effect to negate, and from appearing as a main-deck copy in all three sampled decks across three archetypes. With no effect text, no combo appearances and no searcher or negation role, its interaction, combo and resource axes stay near zero.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 40 | Always live in hand as a body, but it has no search or draw route and appears in no recorded combo starter slot (combo data.starter role = 0). (verified: text and deck count) |
| Combo & Conversion | 15 | Description has no effect clause and combo data shows 0 appearances, so it converts nothing on its own. (verified) |
| Resource Economy | 10 | No card advantage, refuel or recursion in the text, and a one-for-one body with no return. (verified) |
| Effect & Interaction | 0 | No effect text, so no negation, removal or hand-trap reach. (verified) |
| Material Utility | 50 | Level 3 WATER Thunder Normal is a generic material fit that stays usable even if blanked, but the material use itself is not confirmed by combo data. (inferred) |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 40 | Nothing to negate, so it is hard to disrupt by effect, but it dies to any generic removal and has no redundancy beyond its single copy. (inferred) |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 60 | Costs one slot with no garnet or restriction, and runs as a single copy in every sampled deck. (observed) |
Calculation
Weight profile: Primary role only (Material body / Normal); no secondary role blended. Intrinsic ≈ 45, Deck ≈ 44, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck

Weaknesses

Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Normal Monster, WATER, Thunder, Level 3, ATK 350, DEF 750, no archetype; Card text is flavor-only with no effect clause; Appears in 3 of 3 sampled decks as a single main-deck copy; combo data: 0 appearances
- Observed: Three distinct archetypes (Mermail, Atlantean, Spright), all in gameplay type 6; Top partners co-occur in 3 of 3 decks, which reflects archetype cores rather than causal synergy
- Inferred: Functions as a generic Level-3 Water/Thunder material body; No effect means nothing to negate, so it converts even when blanked
- Data gaps: no combos supplied, so combo conversion and material use are text-only inference no guides supplied no banlist token; assumed 3 copies (unlimited) no usage statistics (StatisticsCard); inclusion % is unavailable and inferred from the 3-deck sample only
