(This card is always treated as a "Power Patron" card.) If a "Power Patron" card is on the field: You can Special Summon this card from your hand, then you can add 1 "Theorealize" Spell/Trap from your Deck to your hand. If a monster is banished face-up (except during the Damage Step): You can activate 1 of these effects; ● Add 1 "Ars Magna" card from your Deck to your hand. ● Banish this card, and if you do, Special Summon 1 "Diactorus" monster from your Extra Deck. You can only use each effect of "Theorealized Medius" once per turn.
Theorealize Medius — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 62 ± 8 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 60 · Deck: 64 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Starter / Combo enabler · Secondary: Searcher/Tutor
Why it scores here
Theorealize Medius converts a Power Patron field into a hand Special Summon plus a Theorealize Spell/Trap search, and its banish effect adds an Ars Magna search or a Diactorus Extra Deck summon, so it is a two-for-one engine piece. The 98% partner rate with Ash Blossom and Ars Magna - Citrinitas shows it is a live, central piece in 335 recent decks, but no recorded boards exist to confirm the conversion. Its 1800/1800 stats and Level 4 body earn nothing on their own; the score comes from access and search value, and the hand-summon's Power Patron requirement keeps it from scoring higher.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 70 | Hand Special Summon needs a Power Patron on the field, but 109 Power Patron decks and 119 Elfnote decks run it live with partners in hand (observed, from deck stats; the text condition is verified). |
| Combo & Conversion | 55 | Text gives a Spell/Trap search on summon and an Ars Magna or Diactorus route on banish, but there are zero recorded combos to confirm the conversion (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 72 | Each effect is a search or a body-for-body swap, so it nets card advantage without paying cards from hand (verified text; the net-positive reading is inferred). |
| Effect & Interaction | 10 | The card has no negation, removal or hand-trap text, so it contributes no opponent interaction (verified). |
| Material Utility | 58 | A Level 4 DARK Fairy is a clean generic material body, but it has no effect that survives negation (inferred from stats and text). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 45 | It is hand-only for its main effect and is exposed to hand-based interaction, with only the banish route working from the field; the 98% Ash Blossom pairing shows the exposure is real (observed, plus inferred from text). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 72 | It is a single-copy slot in 304 of 335 decks (avg 1.1 copies), with no garnet or restriction (observed; the no-restriction reading is verified from text). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Starter + 0.3 Searcher. Intrinsic ≈ 60, Deck ≈ 64, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Searches on both effects, so it converts access into extra cards
- Central in the Power Patron and Elfnote homes, with 98% partner inclusion
- Single-copy, low-cost slot
Weaknesses
- Hand Special Summon needs another Power Patron on the field
- No negation or removal, so zero opponent interaction
- Main effect is hand-dependent and exposed to hand-based interaction
Counters / choke points
- Hand-based interaction that hits the monster in hand before it is summoned (inferred)
Best use
Starter / Searcher inside the Power Patron engine. Decks: Power Patron, Elfnote. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Hand Special Summon requires a Power Patron card on the field; Search: one Theorealize Spell/Trap from Deck on summon; Banish trigger: add one Ars Magna from Deck, or banish self to Special Summon one Diactorus from Extra Deck; Each effect is once per turn; Format legality: TCG and OCG
- Observed: 335 recent decks, 98% gameplay type 7, avg 1.1 copies, 304 single-copy decks; Partner inclusion: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring 98.2%, Ars Magna - Citrinitas 98.2%, Medius the Pure 96.7%; Archetype spread: Elfnote 35.5%, Power Patron 32.5%, DoomZ 8.1%
- Inferred: Hand-based interaction can remove it before the summon; Its body is a clean generic Level 4 material that stays usable when negated; Net card advantage is positive because each effect searches or swaps one-for-one
- Data gaps: no combos supplied, so combo conversion is text-only inference no guides supplied no banlist token, so 3 copies assumed no rulings, so the 'always treated as Power Patron' wording is taken from text only usage statistics covers only the Ars Magna archetype
