Master Monk

Master Monk — Power Evaluation

Final Score: 43 ± 5 · Confidence: Medium

• Intrinsic: 44 · Deck: 42 · Meta: provisional
• Primary role: Extender · Secondary: Boss/End-board, Material body

Why it scores here

Master Monk is a Level-5 body that requires Monk Fighter to summon but provides a double-attack effect once on board. The effect is purely offensive—it doesn't disrupt the opponent, negate threats, or generate advantage—it simply enables 1900 ATK to attack twice in one turn (3800 damage potential). This limits its power in a meta where disruption and interaction are critical. The resource cost (tributing Monk Fighter) and lack of redundancy further restrict it to decks already built around that engine, reducing accessibility and deckbuilding flexibility.

Axis scores

Calculation

Weight profile: Primary role: Extender. Intrinsic ≈ 44, Deck ≈ 42, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck

Strengths

• High ATK (1900) for a Level-5 body provides solid damage baseline
• Double-attack effect multiplies damage output, enabling lethal scenarios
• Clear, unambiguous card text with no ruling ambiguity
• Consistent inclusion in all tested Monk Fighter decks (3/3 = 100%)

Weaknesses

• Requires Monk Fighter to summon (zero flexibility, single access route)
• Purely offensive effect with no disruption, negation, or interaction value
• No built-in protection or recovery mechanisms
• Vulnerable to removal and negation before or after summoning
• Small deck sample (3 decks) limits confidence in widespread applicability

Counters / choke points

• Monster negation effects (stops Monk Fighter effect or prevents activation)
• Removal/destruction during the opponent's turn
• Hand disruption (forces away Monk Fighter before it can summon)

Best use

Offensive finisher / extender in Monk Fighter engine. Decks: Monk Fighter, True Draco (variant), Solemn (variant). Suggested copies: 1.

Evidence & gaps

• Verified: Card text: Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set; summoned only by tributing 1 Monk Fighter; can attack twice per turn.; Deck appearances: 3 decks, all main deck, 1 copy each.; Monk Fighter correlation: 100% co-deck rate (3/3 decks); Monk Fighter is the top partner.
• Observed: Inclusion rate: 100% of sampled decks run it (3/3).; Copies per deck: All 3 decks run exactly 1 copy; no redundancy.; Archetype spread: Appears in 3 distinct archetypes (True Draco, Solemn, Book Of), but all share Monk Fighter as a partner.
• Inferred: Double-attack effect converts tribute of Monk Fighter into offensive value (3800 damage potential).; No other summoning routes exist; Monk Fighter is the sole access point.; Level-5 Rock/EARTH body is suitable for material synergies, though primary use is attack.; Purely offensive role suggests the card is a finisher, not a disruptor or traditional extender.
• Data gaps: No combos supplied — cannot verify how the card chains into larger plays or its role in combo sequences. No guides supplied — no strategic documentation or usage context. No StatisticsCard data — archetype inclusion rates inferred from 3 decks only; broader archetype adoption unknown. No banlist token — assumed unlimited (3 copies per deck) based on default. Small deck sample (3 decks) — unclear how widespread Monk Fighter strategies are or how central this card is. Unknown edge-case rulings — the phrase 'can attack twice during the same turn' is unambiguous, but interactions with niche damage multipliers or attack restrictions are not documented.
