Quick Summon — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 62 ± 6 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 61 · Deck: 62 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Starter / Combo enabler · Secondary: Searcher/Tutor, Recovery/Recursion
Why it scores here
Quick Summon converts its value into a Normal Summon of one monster, a conditional no-Tribute Normal Summon of a Level 5+ monster when the opponent controls a monster, and a once-per-turn GY banish that adds a Level 5+ monster to hand and Tribute Summons it, so it returns some value from the GY. It is a generic, cheap, 3-copy staple run in 79 of 79 sampled decks across 48 archetypes, and that breadth is what earns the deck-fit points. It has no interaction, no negation and no combo-board evidence, so the score stays in the low 60s; the high deck count confirms that it is played, not that it is powerful.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 68 | Run in 100% of 79 sampled decks at 1.92 copies average across 48 archetypes, but it needs a Normal Summon window and the GY effect is conditional on being in the GY (inferred from text and deck stats; no combo starter data). |
| Combo & Conversion | 55 | The text yields one Normal Summon plus a conditional extra no-Tribute Normal Summon, and the GY effect yields a Tribute Summon, so it builds a two-body line at most (inferred from text; no combo examples). |
| Resource Economy | 62 | It trades itself from the GY for one monster added to hand plus a Tribute Summon, a roughly even 1-for-1 with a small refuel (inferred from text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 8 | The card has no negation, removal or hand-trap effect, so it gives the opponent no interaction (verified from card text). |
| Material Utility | 40 | It enables Level 5+ monsters to be summoned without Tribute, which helps material and Level fit, but it does not itself provide a body or Level (inferred from text). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 58 | The GY effect is once per turn and not usable the turn it was sent to the GY, so it has one hand-to-GY route with limited repeatability (verified from text; inferred for resilience). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 78 | It is a single generic spell with no garnet, lock or brick cost, is run at up to 3 copies, and shows broad staple inclusion (observed from decks_evidence). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Starter / Combo enabler + 0.3 Searcher / Tutor. Intrinsic ≈ 61, Deck ≈ 62, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Live in 79 of 79 sampled decks across 48 archetypes, so it is broadly portable.
- Generic, cheap and splashable, with no garnet or lock cost.
- Gives a Normal Summon plus a conditional no-Tribute Level 5+ summon and a GY search, so it converts a spell into more than one body.
Weaknesses
- No opponent interaction of any kind.
- No combo-board evidence, so combo conversion rests on text alone.
- The GY effect is once per turn and requires the card to be in the GY and not sent there this turn.
Counters / choke points
- Hand traps and GY-response effects that stop a hand or GY activation (inferred from text; not measured).
Best use
Starter / Combo enabler with a secondary GY search for Level 5+ monsters.. Decks: Broad staple inclusion across the 48 sampled archetypes, with the most inclusion in Clown Crew, RaidRaptor and Mitsurugi..
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Card text: Normal Summon/Set 1 monster, conditional no-Tribute Level 5+ Normal Summon, once-per-turn GY banish to add and Tribute Summon a Level 5+ monster.; 79 of 79 sampled decks run it at an average of 1.92 copies across 48 archetypes.
- Observed: Top partners include Maxx "C" (97.5%), Droll & Lock Bird (87.3%) and Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring (83.5%), which show deck-level co-occurrence.
- Inferred: Starter/searcher role is inferred from text because no combo appearances were supplied.; The GY effect is weighted as a small refuel because the banish is a cost.
- Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo conversion is text-only inference no guides supplied no banlist token — assumed 3 copies (unlimited) no usage statistics (StatisticsCard) — archetype inclusion % inferred from deck sample only
