Trias Hierarchia — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 61 ± 6 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 59.7 · Deck: 60.5 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Extender · Secondary: Removal, Combo enabler, Utility
Why it scores here
Trias Hierarchia earns its score as a cheap, flexible 1-of in Fairy decks rather than as a high-ATK boss: across 400 sampled decks it is a main-deck staple spanning 53 archetypes at roughly 1.1 copies, and its effect is live from both the hand and the GY as a Quick Effect in any Main Phase. What it reliably converts is existing board presence — up to three Fairy monsters — into a Level 9 LIGHT Fairy body plus either a destruction (2+ tributes) or a draw 2 (3 tributes), which is genuine value but is never a one-card play. Its 1900 ATK and 2900 DEF earned no points here, and the tributes it consumes, its once-per-turn clause, and the banish-when-it-leaves-the-field restriction cap how far the line extends.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 60 | Live from hand or GY as a Quick Effect and present in the main deck of all 400 sampled decks, but it is a 1.1-copy staple with no dedicated searcher shown in the evidence (observed). |
| Combo & Conversion | 52 | Converts up to three Fairy bodies into a Level 9 LIGHT Fairy plus destruction or a draw 2, but never functions as a one-card starter or full-board enabler (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 55 | Three tributes for a draw 2 roughly offsets the material spent while adding a body, and two tributes trades one Fairy pair for one destroyed opponent card (verified). |
| Effect & Interaction | 55 | A Main-Phase Quick Effect that destroys one opponent-controlled card at two-plus tributes is real but soft disruption, and it provides no negation (verified). |
| Material Utility | 52 | A Level 9 LIGHT Fairy is a usable Rank 9/Synchro material and type/attribute provider, but the self-banish when it leaves the field after its own summon limits material reuse (verified). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 58 | Usable from two zones across either player's Main Phase, giving good zone flexibility, but it is once per turn, usually a 1-of, and the summon can be negated after the tributes are spent (inferred). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 74 | A single main-deck slot that is rarely dead because it functions from hand or GY, with no locks or garnet risk, although it needs a Fairy-heavy deck to do anything (observed). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Extender + 0.3 Removal/Negation. Intrinsic ≈ 59.7, Deck ≈ 60.5, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: Compact, low-cost staple (1). Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Live from both hand and GY as a Quick Effect during any Main Phase, so it is rarely a dead card in a Fairy deck.
- Converts Fairy bodies already on board into a Level 9 LIGHT Fairy plus either one destroyed opponent card (2+ tributes) or a draw 2 (3 tributes).
- Highly portable within Fairy strategies: 53 distinct archetypes, 100% main-deck inclusion, only 1.1 average copies.
- Level 9 LIGHT Fairy typing lines up with top partners Diviner of the Herald (87.8% co-decks) and Elder Entity N'tss (65.8%).
- Cheap deckbuilding cost: a single slot that functions from two zones with no locks or garnet.
Weaknesses
- Not a starter: it requires Fairy monsters on the field to tribute, so it does nothing in a vacuum or in non-Fairy decks.
- Low 1900 ATK for a Level 9, and it banishes itself when it leaves the field after its own summon, limiting material reuse.
- Once-per-turn clause, and the Special Summon can be interrupted after the tributes are already spent.
- The draw 2 costs three Fairies, which is steep; the destruction requires two tributes.
- Deck evidence shows a 1.1-copy staple rather than an engine core, and there is no combo data to confirm a high-impact line.
Counters / choke points
- Called by the Grave or D.D. Crow, which banish it from the GY before the Quick Effect can be used
- Ghost Belle & Haunted Mansion, which can stop the GY Special Summon
- Infinite Impermanence or Effect Veiler, which negate the effect after Fairies have been committed
- Solemn Judgment or Solemn Strike, which negate the Special Summon itself
- Any removal of the Fairy bodies needed as tribute fodder, leaving it stranded in hand/GY
Best use
Flexible 1-of Fairy extender that doubles as Main-Phase removal or a draw-2 refuel. Decks: Voiceless Voice, Solfachord, Herald/Dogmatika Fairies, Generaider, The Agent. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Card text: during the Main Phase, if this card is in your hand or GY (Quick Effect), tribute up to 3 Fairy monsters to Special Summon it, banishing it when it leaves the field.; Card text: 2+ tributes destroys 1 card the opponent controls; 3 tributes draws 2 cards; once per turn.; Card identity: Level 9 LIGHT Fairy, 1900 ATK / 2900 DEF, no archetype, legal in TCG/OCG/Master Duel/Duel Links.
- Observed: 400 sampled decks run it, all in the main deck, averaging 1.1 copies (378 decks at exactly 1 copy).; 53 distinct archetypes use it; top homes are Voiceless Voice 36.5%, Solfachord 12.8%, Dogmatika 7%.; Top partners: Ash Blossom 90%, Diviner of the Herald 87.8%, S:P Little Knight 75%, Elder Entity N'tss 65.8%.; usage statistics shows 100% inclusion in The Agent and Voiceless Voice (1811), 72% in Voiceless Voice (1602), and 66.7% in Herald at 3 typical copies.; combo data contains 0 combos and 0 appearances for this card.; 4 guides mention it, three of them placing it in a 'Staple' section.
- Inferred: The 87.8% co-occurrence with Diviner of the Herald and 65.8% with Elder Entity N'tss is consistent with a Fairy/GY-oriented package that puts this card into the GY to make its Quick Effect live.; Because it can be Special Summoned from the GY, it acts as a recurring body in longer games rather than a one-shot.; In decks without a Fairy count to tribute, the card is close to dead.; Its once-per-turn, Main-Phase-only Quick Effect makes it best used either mid-combo or as opponent-turn disruption.
- Data gaps: no combos supplied — combo conversion is text-only inference no banlist token — assumed 3 copies (unlimited) no starter-count data (average starter count when present is null) no per-turn-order, win-rate, or end-board data for decks running it no explicit in-archetype searcher for this card appears in the evidence
