Meteor Dragon — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 47 ± 6 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 51 · Deck: 45 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Material body
Why it scores here
Meteor Dragon is a Normal Monster with no effect, serving as a named Level 6 Dragon body in Red-Eyes decks (21.7% of evidence). It generates no card advantage, has no inherent combo routes (zero recorded combos), and offers no disruption to the opponent. Its value lies entirely in being searchable Red-Eyes material and a clean Fusion target—accessible in archetype searchers but passive in play. The 1800 ATK is not impressive for its level and does not earn points.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 55 | Appears in 23 decks at 1 copy each, primarily Red-Eyes (21.7%), and benefits from archetype searchers like The Black Stone of Legend and Red-Eyes Insight (verified). |
| Combo & Conversion | 15 | Zero recorded combo appearances and no text-based routes to extend play; cannot self-generate boards or act as a combo starter (verified). |
| Resource Economy | 10 | Normal Monster with no effect, search, or recursion—purely a deck slot that consumes resources without refuel (verified). |
| Effect & Interaction | 5 | Normal Monster with flavor text only; provides no disruption, negation, or removal capability (verified). |
| Material Utility | 68 | Level 6 EARTH Dragon with clean stats usable in Fusion summons; 82.6% of co-deck partners are Red-Eyes core cards (Red-Eyes Black Dragon, Meteor Black Dragon), confirming material role (verified). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 35 | Unprotected body with modest 1800 ATK; easily removed once summoned and relies on deck construction, not inherent resilience (verified). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 62 | Straightforward 1-copy inclusion with no garnet, lock, or architectural burden; consistent across all 23 decks (verified). |
Calculation
Weight profile: Material body / Normal Monster. Intrinsic ≈ 51, Deck ≈ 45, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Searchable in Red-Eyes via The Black Stone of Legend, Red-Eyes Insight, and other archetype tutors.
- Clean Level 6 Dragon body—no self-locking or awkward typing that prevents Fusion summons.
- Consistent 1-copy inclusion across 23 different decks, signaling stable archetype fit.
Weaknesses
- Normal Monster with no effect—generates no card advantage and cannot extend combos.
- 1800 ATK is modest for a Level 6 body, offering minimal board threat once summoned.
- Zero combo appearances in recorded boards indicate it is pure material, not a strategic engine piece.
- Heavily Red-Eyes-dependent (82.6% of top partners); limited portability across other archetypes.
Counters / choke points
- Any removal (destruction, bounce, banishment) trivially answers an unprotected Level 6 body.
- Negation of its summoning leaves it as a brick in hand.
- Modern board interaction makes 1800 ATK irrelevant; no specific hard counters needed.
Best use
Named body for Fusion summons and archetype synergy filler. Decks: Red-Eyes (primary), Harpie (secondary), Dark Magician (secondary). Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Normal Monster with flavor text only; no effect text (card description).; Level 6 EARTH Dragon, 1800 ATK / 2000 DEF (card attributes).; Appears in 23 decks at 1 copy each, all main deck (deck evidence).; Red-Eyes concentration: 21.7% explicitly classified, 82.6% partner overlap with Red-Eyes core (deck evidence).; 12 distinct archetypes run it, but Red-Eyes dominates deck incidence (deck evidence).
- Observed: Highest gameplay concentration in Type 4 (60.9%), secondary Type 7 (26.1%) (deck evidence).; Consistent 1-copy inclusion across all 23 decks with zero variance in copies per deck (deck evidence).
- Inferred: Used as named body for Red-Eyes Fusion summons and Fusion material lines (inferred from Level 6 Dragon type + Red-Eyes Fusion partner pairing).; Searchable via Red-Eyes archetype support (inferred from The Black Stone of Legend and Red-Eyes Insight co-deck rates of 73.9%).
- Data gaps: No combos supplied—combo conversion entirely text-based (Normal Monster has no effect). No guides supplied—no manual context on intended role or tech paths. No usage statistics (StatisticsCard)—archetype inclusion % calibrated only from 23-deck sample. No metagame ranking or Top-Card status—cannot assess meta tier or competitive viability. No format-specific legal copy counts or banlist tokens—assumed unlimited (3 copies) in all formats.
