Number 99: Utopia Dragonar — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 60 ± 6 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 57 · Deck: 62 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Extender · Secondary: Board breaker
Why it scores here
Number 99 is a 3000-ATK Rank 12 Xyz whose main value is its Quick Effect: it detaches 2 materials to Special Summon another Number from the Extra Deck, so it converts its own body into a further Xyz on the field. Its ATK-to-0 response on an opponent's attack adds a reliable battle-interaction layer, and it runs as a single copy in essentially every sampled deck. The 3000 ATK and the Rank 12 requirement earn no points on their own, and the high usage in the Utopia and Onomat shells confirms access and deck fit rather than intrinsic strength. The score is held back by the absence of combo data and by its weak value as material.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 62 | Reached through Extra Deck Xyz summons from Level 4 spam and Utopia/Onomat lines, and 400 of 400 sampled decks run it (observed); no starter or searched data supplied, so reliability is inferred. |
| Combo & Conversion | 62 | Its effect summons a second Number from the Extra Deck, which is a real extension step, but combo data has zero boards, so the conversion depth is inferred from text only. |
| Resource Economy | 50 | Detaching 2 materials to summon one Number is roughly card-neutral with no recursion or draw, so the score sits near even (verified from text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 60 | The ATK-to-0 response on an opponent's attack is a reliable, once-per-turn battle interaction, but it is a single soft effect rather than a negation (verified from text). |
| Material Utility | 30 | A Rank 12 Xyz is a poor material body for lower-rank Xyz and no combo evidence shows it being used as material, so this is inferred as low (inferred). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 50 | Each effect is once per turn and both depend on detaching materials, so one negate on the field can end the line; no redundancy beyond the field presence (inferred). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 60 | Single-copy usage in 398 of 400 decks with no garnet, but it takes a fixed Extra Deck slot and imposes a turn-level restriction on the summoning player (verified from decks and text). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Extender + 0.3 Board breaker. Intrinsic ≈ 57, Deck ≈ 62, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: Self-locking restriction (-2). Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Extra Deck Xyz-to-Xyz extension of a Number monster
- ATK-to-0 response to an opponent's attack, once per turn
- Present in 400 of 400 sampled decks across 32 archetypes, with no garnet
- Single-copy deck slot with no splash or redundancy cost
Weaknesses
- Relies on Extra Deck Xyz summons and on having the Number targets available
- Activation locks the player's own direct attacks and Extra Deck summons that turn
- Detaching 2 materials is a real cost with no card advantage return
- Low material value: a Rank 12 Xyz is a poor material for lower ranks
Counters / choke points
- Generic effect negation in response to its Quick Effect
- Removal or ATK reduction on the body before the Xyz summon completes
Best use
Extender / ATK-zero board presence in Number-based Xyz lines. Decks: Utopia, Onomat, Gagaga. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Effect text: detach 2 materials to Special Summon a Number from the Extra Deck, ATK-to-0 on an opponent's attack, once per turn per effect; Copies per deck: 1 in 398 of 400 decks, 3 in 2 decks; Rank 12, 3000 ATK, Utopia/Number archetype membership
- Observed: Runs in 400 of 400 sampled decks; 30.5% in Utopia and 27.2% in Onomat; Top partners appear in 87–96% of decks; Usage statistics show inclusion of 53–100% across 5 archetype homes
- Inferred: Extender primary role with a Board breaker secondary role; Material value is weak for lower-rank Xyz; Combo conversion depth and reliability, from text only
- Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo conversion is text-only inference No banlist token; assumed 3 copies (unlimited) No rulings supplied for the once-per-turn and Xyz-summon treatment wording
