SPYRAL Resort — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 60 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 58 · Deck: 62 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Searcher/Tutor · Secondary: Floodgate/Control
Why it scores here
SPYRAL Resort scores on two text-verified effects: a once-per-turn search of a SPYRAL monster from the Deck, and a targeting shield for other SPYRAL cards you control. Its 400-of-400 deck presence and 3-copy typical count confirm it is a reliable, cheap, consistently run piece, but that frequency is credited only through deckbuilding and accessibility, not as proof of raw strength. Its ATK/DEF is 0 and it is not a material body, so those axes earn nothing. No combo data was supplied, so combo conversion rests on text alone and is held near the middle.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 70 | Three copies run in 366 of 400 decks, and the search is repeatable each turn once the field is live (decks, verified; the live-turn repetition is inferred from text). |
| Combo & Conversion | 45 | No combos were supplied, so the card converts to a SPYRAL monster via search but does not build a board by itself (inferred from text only). |
| Resource Economy | 70 | The search adds one card from the Deck each turn and the End Phase option can refuel the GY into the Deck, giving a sustained positive economy (verified text, inferred net value). |
| Effect & Interaction | 60 | The shield stops targeting by card effects against other SPYRAL cards, which is a meaningful but narrow defence that does not cover non-targeting effects (verified text, inferred scope). |
| Material Utility | 10 | A Field Spell with no level, ATK or material role, so it cannot serve as material (verified from card type). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 50 | Its protection covers other SPYRAL cards, not itself, and the card itself is exposed to field-zone interaction that the evidence does not cover (inferred; field exposure is speculation). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 75 | A single-copy field slot with no garnet or lock beyond the SPYRAL theme, run at 3 copies in most decks (observed from deck data and verified text). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Searcher/Tutor + 0.3 Floodgate/Control. Intrinsic ≈ 58, Deck ≈ 62, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Repeatable once-per-turn search of a SPYRAL monster, giving steady card flow
- Shield against targeting by card effects for other SPYRAL cards you control
- Cheap to run: one slot, typically 3 copies, with no garnet or self-lock in the text
- Central to the SPYRAL shell: 400 of 400 sampled decks run it and its top partners are SPYRAL engine pieces
Weaknesses
- Zero combo data supplied, so its board-building conversion is unverified
- Protection covers only targeting by card effects; it does not stop non-targeting effects
- Does not protect itself and does nothing without SPYRAL monsters to search or shield
- Only the SPYRAL-named cards gain value, so it adds little outside a SPYRAL shell
Counters / choke points
- Non-targeting effects, which the shield does not stop
- Field-zone interaction aimed at the Field Spell itself (role of such cards not in the evidence)
Best use
Searcher/Tutor with targeting shield for the SPYRAL engine. Decks: SPYRAL (archetype 666), SPYRAL (archetype 177). Suggested copies: 3.

- Observed: Top partners co-occur at 89-95% with SPYRAL engine cards (deck data); 136 SPYRAL-labelled decks and 213 decks under other archetype labels run it (deck data); Inclusion 100% across 6 StatisticsCard archetypes; not used to raise the score (usage statistics)
- Inferred: Search repeats each turn, giving sustained card flow; Shield is narrow: it does not stop non-targeting effects; Net economy is positive over several turns
- Data gaps: No combos supplied, so combo conversion is text-only inference No banlist token; assumed 3 copies (unlimited) No ruling or interaction data for the shield against non-card effects No evidence on field-zone destruction or other removal aimed at the Field Spell
