Ojamassimilation — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 63 ± 6 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 59 · Deck: 65 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Searcher / Tutor · Secondary: Combo enabler, Recovery/Recursion
Why it scores here
Ojamassimilation is a core tutor and grind piece in Ojama and ABC strategies, appearing in 100% of the 99 sampled decks with 64 running 3 copies. The card efficiently searches Fusion Materials from the Deck and provides strong GY recursion (shuffle 3 banished Ojama, draw 1), but it offers zero opponent interaction and requires setup (banishable Ojama monsters). Its high score reflects universal inclusion and resource efficiency within homes, tempered by its zero disruption value and entirely derivative combo conversion.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 75 | The card appears in all 99 decks with 64 running 3 copies, and has 100% co-appearance with Ojama color monsters (Yellow/Green/Black/Blue/Ojamagic), indicating strong accessibility within Ojama and ABC homes; 65.7% of decks are Gameplay Type 7 (Fusion-heavy), confirming its role in Fusion strategies (verified). |
| Combo & Conversion | 55 | The main effect tutors Fusion Materials equal to the number of banished Ojama, enabling Fusion summons like ABC-Dragon Buster (77.8% co-appearance), but the card itself does not build a board; all combo value is derivative of the Fusion summoned and no combo examples are supplied to verify real conversion (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 70 | The main effect trades banished Ojama monsters for Fusion Materials on a 1:1 basis (neutral), but the GY effect (banish → shuffle 3 Ojama back, draw 1) provides clean grind value and refueling across turns (verified from card text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 0 | The card has zero disruption, negation, or removal; it is purely a tutor and recursion engine with no opponent interaction (verified). |
| Material Utility | 0 | As a Spell Card, it cannot be used as Fusion Material, synergy Material, or provide any material value even if its effect is negated (verified). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 62 | The GY effect provides multi-turn utility and recursion, and the card does not lock the player into any specific line; however, the main effect can be negated by Ash Blossom and requires setup (banishable Ojama in hand/field/GY), and it appears in 16 distinct archetypes suggesting moderate home-switching flexibility (inferred). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 80 | The card is core to Ojama and ABC builds (no garnets or self-locking), and running 3 copies is standard in all 99 decks, indicating low opportunity cost and clean deck integration despite archetype-specific text (observed). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Searcher + 0.3 Recovery/Recursion. Intrinsic ≈ 59, Deck ≈ 65, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Universal inclusion in Ojama/ABC homes (99/99 decks, 64 running 3 copies)
- Efficient GY recursion effect (shuffle 3 Ojama, draw 1)
- Tutor for Fusion Materials from Deck, enabling multi-turn extended plays
- Appears in 16 distinct archetypes (Ojama, Armed Dragon, ABC, Harpie, Tri-Brigade, etc.)
- No self-locking or garnet status; clean deck glue
Weaknesses
- Zero opponent interaction (no disruption, removal, or negation)
- Requires setup (banishable Ojama monsters in hand/field/GY to activate main effect)
- Vulnerable to Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring (negates search effect on turn 1)
- Combo value is entirely derivative of Fusion target (inferred, not combo-verified)
- Archetype-specific text (mentions 'Ojama' and LIGHT Machine Fusions) limits generic appeal
Counters / choke points
- Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring (negates search effect)
- Graveyard lockdown (Necrovalley, Zombie World, etc.)
- Dimensional Barrier (prevents Fusion summoning)
- Any effect that banishes the Ojama monsters before they can be used to activate Ojamassimilation
- Deck-out if recursion loop is disrupted
Best use
Fusion Material tutor + grind engine. Decks: Ojama (core 27.3% of sample), Armed Dragon (19.2% of sample), ABC (21.2% of sample combined). Suggested copies: 3.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Card text: Tutor Fusion Materials equal to banished Ojama monsters; GY recursion effect shuffles 3 Ojama and draws 1; 100% co-appearance with Ojama color monsters (Yellow/Green/Black/Blue/Ojamagic) in all 99 decks; 64 out of 99 decks run 3 copies (distribution verified); Appears in 16 distinct archetypes (Ojama primary home, Armed Dragon, ABC, Harpie, Tri-Brigade, etc.); 77.8% co-appearance with ABC-Dragon Buster (Fusion boss in sample decks); Zero disruption or opponent interaction in card text; Spell Card cannot be used as Fusion Material or any material type
- Observed: 99 decks include this card (100% inclusion in sample); 65.7% of decks are Gameplay Type 7 (Fusion-heavy), 31.3% Gameplay Type 4; Average 2.56 copies per deck across sample; Top partners Ojamatch (90.9%), Ojama Red (83.8%), Ojama Pajama (76.8%) indicate core Ojama synergy
- Inferred: Main effect enables Fusion summoning by tutoring Materials, supporting Ojama and ABC boss monsters; GY effect provides multi-turn grind value and recycling of key Ojama bodies; Archetype-specific text limits generic utility outside Ojama/ABC/ARM homes despite 16-archetype appearance; Combo conversion value is derivative of Fusion target (no combos supplied to verify actual board output); GenericUtility capped at 55 due to 'Ojama'-specific text despite 16-archetype spread
- Data gaps: No combos supplied — combo conversion scored as text-only inference; cannot verify real board output or frequency in competitive lines No guides supplied — no human context on strategic role or popular synergy patterns No banlist token — assumed unlimited (3 copies legal); no verification of restricted status No usage statistics (StatisticsCard) — archetype inclusion % inferred from 99-deck sample only; no broader historical calibration No top-card ranking — consistent with Ojama being a niche strategy, but no verification of competitive viability
