Storm Caller — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 36 ± 12 · Confidence: Low
- Intrinsic: 36 · Deck: — · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Utility
Why it scores here
Storm Caller's verified text is a conditional battle-redirect: it sends opponent monsters destroyed by battle with Psychic monsters to the top of their owner's Deck instead of the Graveyard. That is narrow interaction, not a negate or removal, and it carries a real cost, since destruction by a card effect deals damage equal to its original ATK. The 2300 ATK and the Level 6 body are not scored; the body only earns modest material value, and the empty decks and combos leave the score provisional at Low confidence.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 25 | No searcher, summon route or setup appears in the text or evidence, and a Level 6 body is not a cheap summon, so the card is hard to put on the field (inferred). |
| Combo & Conversion | 20 | The text creates no cards or board, and combo data shows 0 appearances, so conversion is a text-only inference (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 30 | The Deck redirect replaces a Graveyard send rather than gaining cards, and the self-damage equal to its original ATK is a real cost when a card effect destroys it (verified). |
| Effect & Interaction | 35 | The redirect only applies to opponent monsters destroyed by battle with Psychic monsters, a narrow trigger rather than a negate or removal (verified). |
| Material Utility | 45 | A Level 6 Psychic WIND body with generic race and attribute, and the effect does not stop its use as material, but no combo or deck evidence shows it used that way (inferred). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 30 | The effect depends on battle, and a 2300 ATK body can be destroyed by ordinary battle or card effects, with self-damage applying on card-effect destruction (inferred). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 60 | The text has no garnet or lock, and no deck data shows slot pressure, so the card is cheap to run in principle (inferred). |
Calculation
Weight profile: Utility default (no clear role), single role, no blend: 0.18/0.16/0.12/0.14/0.14/0.14/0.12. Intrinsic ≈ 36, Deck ≈ —, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: Final = Intrinsic (no decks and no combos, provisional; Deck = null)
Strengths
- Level 6 Psychic WIND body is generic material with no garnet attached
- Redirect effect can remove opponent monsters from the Graveyard flow when destroyed by Psychic battle
- No lock or restriction in the text
Weaknesses
- Narrow trigger: only battle destruction by Psychic monsters
- No searcher or summon route in the evidence
- Destruction by card effect deals damage equal to its original ATK to its controller
- No deck or combo evidence to confirm a real role
Counters / choke points
- Card-effect removal, which also triggers the self-damage
- Non-Psychic attackers, which never trigger the redirect
- Ordinary battle destruction, which is not blocked by any effect in the text
Best use
Situational Psychic-battle interaction; no confirmed deck role in the evidence.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Level 6, WIND, Psychic, Effect Monster, ATK 2300, DEF 2000, no archetype; Legal in TCG, OCG, MasterDuel and DuelLinks; Text: redirect of opponent monsters destroyed by battle with Psychic monsters to the top of their owner's Deck; Text: destruction by a card effect deals damage equal to its original ATK to its controller
- Inferred: Role is situational interaction with no confirmed deck role; Accessibility is limited by Level 6 and the absence of a searcher; Material value is generic but unproven in combos
- Data gaps: no decks supplied - deck/synergy signals unavailable 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 Battle-participant wording ('other Psychic-Type monsters') is taken as written and not ruled on
