World Legacy Landmark — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 48 ± 6 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 49 · Deck: 51 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Recovery/Recursion · Secondary: Extender
Why it scores here
World Legacy Landmark converts one World Legacy monster (banished from hand or field) into two monsters revived from the Graveyard, a net gain of one body and a real recursion line. It is a Trap, so it cannot be material and gives no opponent interaction, which keeps the material and effect axes low. The Recovery role weights resource economy and resilience most heavily, and the 9-deck sample across 6 archetypes supports a practical, if archetype-locked, role. The 'cannot attack this turn' clause limits the immediate board, and no combo data was supplied, so the score stays in the mid-range.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 55 | A Trap that needs a World Legacy monster in hand or on field to banish, and is live in 9 recent decks across 6 archetypes; no combo starter data (inference from text and deck counts; Medium evidence). |
| Combo & Conversion | 50 | Two GY monsters Special Summoned per activation, but they cannot attack that turn, and no board or combo examples were supplied (inferred from text; observed deck partners only). |
| Resource Economy | 70 | Costs one banished card and returns two monsters from the GY, a net +1 body (verified from card text; no combo netCardAdvantage data). |
| Effect & Interaction | 5 | No negation, removal, or disruption text; it is a recursion trap only (verified from card text). |
| Material Utility | 5 | Trap card, so it cannot be used as material and provides no material body (verified from card type). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 45 | Trap that can be set, but it is a single-use effect that is easily negated by generic trap answers; redundancy depends on 1-2 copies (inferred from text and copies per deck). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 55 | Average 1.33 copies per deck, no garnet or lock text, but the World Legacy monster requirement is a mild restriction (verified from deck stats and text). |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Recovery/Recursion + 0.3 Extender. Intrinsic ≈ 49, Deck ≈ 51, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: Archetype-restricted cost (-2). Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Net +1 body: one banished card returns two monsters from the Graveyard
- Cheap to run: 1-2 copies in the observed decks, no garnet text
- Live across 6 archetypes, with consistent inclusion alongside World Chalice and World Legacy monsters
Weaknesses
- Revived monsters cannot attack this turn, which slows the immediate board
- Needs a World Legacy monster in hand or on field, so it is dead without that body
- Trap card: no material use, no opponent interaction, and easily negated
Counters / choke points
- Generic trap negation applies to a Trap card (inference from card type; no counter evidence supplied)
Best use
Recovery/Recursion trap that turns a World Legacy monster into two GY revivals. Decks: World Chalice, World Legacy, Dark World. Suggested copies: 2.
