3 Level 5 monsters (This card is always treated as "Number C39: Utopia Ray".) Once per turn: You can detach 1 material from this card; equip 1 "ZW -" monster from your Deck or Extra Deck to this card as if it were equipped by that monster's effect. This effect's activation and effect cannot be negated. Once per turn, while this card is equipped with a "ZW -" Monster Card (Quick Effect): You can target 1 Effect Monster your opponent controls; negate its effects, and if you do, halve its ATK.
Ultimate Leo Utopia Ray — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 64 ± 6 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 59.4 · Deck: 67.4 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Boss/End-board · Secondary: Negation/Interaction
Why it scores here
The card's value comes from its end-board role: it is a payoff in 3 of 5 recorded boards, with an average power index of 76 and a 100 index on the basic Utopia line. Its once-per-turn quick negate (halving ATK) is conditional on a ZW monster equipped by its own detach effect, so the negate is reachable but not free. Its 2500 ATK and the 400/400 deck inclusion earn no points on their own; the inclusion confirms accessibility and the partner density confirms a real line, not that the card is intrinsically strong.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 60 | Rank 5 Xyz needs three Level 5 monsters and has no searcher or starter role in the evidence (starter role 0, searched-for role 0), but it appears in all 400 decks with 83.5% pairing with ZW - Pegasus Twin Saber (observed). |
| Combo & Conversion | 78 | Payoff in 3 of 5 recorded boards, end-board appearances in 3, average power index 76, and the top example reaches 100 with three boss monsters (observed). |
| Resource Economy | 50 | Detaching a material to equip a ZW monster from the deck adds a body, but the card itself neither draws nor refuels; net card advantage on boards is 3 to 6 but driven by the wider line (inferred from text and observed board stats). |
| Effect & Interaction | 60 | Quick negate of one opponent effect monster plus ATK halving is strong when live, but it requires a ZW equip first and is once per turn (verified from text, with the equip dependency noted). |
| Material Utility | 30 | Recorded as material in 0 boards and is a Rank 5 Xyz whose materials are detached for its effects; its value as a Rank 6 material is an inference, not observed (inferred). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 55 | The negate is once per turn and the equip is only available while a ZW monster is attached; the card is not a multi-turn redundant body in the evidence (inferred from text). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 60 | Runs at 1.18 copies on average with 350 of 400 decks at one copy, no garnet language, and an unlimited banlist assumed; the Number/ZW dependency narrows splashability (verified from decks and text). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Boss/End-board + 0.3 Negation/Interaction. Intrinsic ≈ 59.4, Deck ≈ 67.4, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Payoff in 3 of 5 recorded boards with average power index 76 and a 100 index on the basic Utopia line (observed)
- Live in 400 of 400 sampled decks with strong pairing to ZW - Pegasus Twin Saber (83.5%) and ZS - Ascended Sage (80.8%) (observed)
- Quick once-per-turn negate that also halves the target's ATK once a ZW monster is equipped (verified)
- Equip from Deck or Extra Deck does not depend on the card being summoned by a searcher (verified)
Weaknesses
- Does not start boards (starter role 0) and is not searched (searched-for role 0) (observed)
- Negate needs a ZW monster equipped first, so it is conditional on the line running (verified)
- Weak as material in the evidence (material role 0) and detaching materials costs future value (observed/inferred)
- Sample is narrow: 5 combos and 6 guides mention it, so the score rests on the 400-deck sample (data gap)
Counters / choke points
- Interference that removes the Xyz or its ZW equip before the once-per-turn negate is used (inferred from text and general rules, not in evidence)
- Opponent effect-negation of the quick effect in response to activation (inferred from text)
Best use
Boss/End-board finisher with a conditional negate once a ZW monster is equipped. Decks: Utopia, Onomat, Gagaga, Chaos Chimera OTK. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Quick effect: negate one opponent effect monster and halve its ATK, once per turn, only while a ZW monster is equipped; Equip from Deck or Extra Deck is once per turn and its activation cannot be negated; Formats include TCG, OCG, MasterDuel and DuelLinks; no banlist token, so unlimited is assumed
- Observed: Live in 400 of 400 sampled decks at 1.18 average copies; Payoff in 3 of 5 combos with average power index 76; Inclusion 100% in Chaos Chimera OTK and 60% in Utopia (usage statistics)
- Inferred: Rank 6 material value from detaching a Rank 5 Xyz; Counters through removal of the Xyz or equipped ZW monster
- Data gaps: No banlist token; assumed 3 copies (unlimited) Combo sample is only 5 boards Material use not observed (material role 0) Top-card ranking absent (not a top card)
