Why it scores here
Vylon Delta is a Level 7 LIGHT Synchro whose only effect is a conditional search: at your End Phase, if it is face-up in Defense Position, you add 1 Equip Spell from your Deck to your hand. Its value is the Level 7 LIGHT body and that one conditional search, not a board-breaking effect. The 1700 ATK and 2800 DEF earn no points on their own; the score comes from the Extra Deck slot cost and the fact that the search depends on the Synchro surviving to the End Phase in the right position, which is a real limit on accessibility and resilience.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 40 | Needs a Tuner plus a LIGHT non-Tuner on the field to summon, and the search only happens if it is still face-up in Defense Position at End Phase; the 3 sample decks confirm it is played, but no starter or searched data exists (observed, inferred). |
| Combo & Conversion | 30 | No recorded boards, so conversion is text-only: a Synchro body plus one Equip Spell search, which does not build a board by itself (inferred). |
| Resource Economy | 45 | The End Phase search is a single +1 card when the condition is met, but the Synchro summon spends two materials, so the net is roughly even at best (inferred). |
| Effect & Interaction | 10 | The card has no negation, removal, or hand-trap effect and provides no opponent interaction (verified). |
| Material Utility | 45 | Level 7 LIGHT Fairy is a usable Synchro/Xyz material, but it has no clean generic fit beyond level, and the material value is not measured in combos (inferred). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 35 | A single negate or a board wipe before End Phase removes the search entirely; it is only live in a narrow board state (inferred). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 60 | Single copy in each of the 3 sample decks, Extra Deck slot only, no garnet or lock; cheap to run (observed, verified). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Utility + 0.3 Searcher/Tutor. Intrinsic ≈ 45, Deck ≈ 44, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Level 7 LIGHT Fairy body usable as Synchro or Xyz material
- Conditional End Phase search for an Equip Spell from the Deck
- Single Extra Deck slot, easy to run, appears across 3 different archetype homes
Weaknesses
- Search requires the card to be face-up in Defense Position at End Phase, which is a narrow condition
- No negation, removal or hand-trap effect
- No combo data supplied, so board-building value is unproven
- Summoning needs a Tuner and a LIGHT non-Tuner on the field
Counters / choke points
- Board wipes or removal that hits it before End Phase
- Negating its effect before End Phase stops the search
Best use
Level 7 Synchro body with a conditional Equip Spell search. Decks: Vylon decks (archetype link only, not confirmed by sample decks), Decks running LIGHT Synchro or Level 7 Xyz material lines. Suggested copies: 1.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Level 7 LIGHT Fairy Synchro, ATK 1700 / DEF 2800, archetype Vylon (card text); Effect: Synchro requirement is 1 Tuner plus 1 or more non-Tuner LIGHT monsters (card text); Effect: End Phase search of 1 Equip Spell when face-up in Defense Position (card text); Appears in 3 sample decks at 1 copy each, main deck slot (deck data)
- Observed: 3 distinct archetype homes: The Agent, Arcana Force, Phantasm Spiral (deck data); Top partners include Vylon Epsilon, Vylon Omega, Vylon Sigma (2 of 3 decks each) (deck data)
- Inferred: The search is conditional and narrow in practice (text reading); Material value is moderate given Level 7 LIGHT, not measured in combos; Deck-level synergy is modest given no combo boards
- Data gaps: 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 sample decks do not list the Vylon archetype as a home, despite the card's archetype field
