Why it scores here

Machine Angel Ritual là công cụ cốt lõi cho việc triệu hồi quái thú Ritual Cyber Angel, thường được sử dụng với 2-3 bản trong 141 Deck với Scale Synchro (co-deck) 92.2% với Benten tutor, mang lại khả năng tiếp cận mạnh mẽ trong nhánh (archetype) của nó. Các bàn Ritual (ritual boards) kết quả từ nó mang lại sự xao nhãng điều khiển vừa phải nhưng thiếu đi tiềm năng combo bùng nổ như các chiến lược hiện đại Synchro/Fusion, và lá bài này không tạo ra lợi thế card nội tại ngoài cơ thể đã được triệu hồi. Hiệu ứng bảo vệ Mộ thứ Cấp bổ sung độ kiên cường điều kiện cho các quái thú LIGHT nhưng không bù đắp cho mức độ mạnh hiện đại hạn chế của nhánh so với các Deck hạng đầu (tier-1).

Axis scores

| Axis | Score | Evidence |

|---|--:|---|

| Accessibility | 75 | Run at 2.59 copies average across 141 decks với multiple search routes (Benten 92.2% co-deck), but archetype-dependent với no utility outside LIGHT ritual contexts (observed). |

| Combo & Conversion | 58 | Enables Cyber Angel Ritual Monster summons which provide modest control boards; no explosive combo depth vs. modern synchro/xyz alternatives (inferred from deck context and no combo evidence). |

| Resource Economy | 42 | Ritual cost requires tribute of monsters equal to target's level; no card draw or search on this spell itself; Mộ effect does not generate advantage (verified from text). |

| Effect & Interaction | 18 | Provides no offensive negation or removal; Mộ effect only protects các quái thú Ánh Sáng from destruction—purely defensive interaction (verified from text). |

| Material Utility | 5 | Spell card với no monster body; cannot serve as fusion/synchro/xyz/link material or provide level/attribute synergy (verified from card type). |

| Resilience & Flexibility | 62 | Main-phase spell transitions to Mộ protection tool, adding zone flexibility; conditional Mộ effect requires LIGHT monster on field to activate (verified from text). |

| Deck-Building Efficiency | 71 | Included at 3 copies in 71% of running decks với clean archetype fit; secondary Mộ effect reduces garnet risk; archetype-specific với limited portability outside Cyber Angel and LIGHT themes (observed). |

Calculation

Weight profile: 0.7 × Combo enabler + 0.3 × Recovery/Recursion. Intrinsic ≈ 56, Deck ≈ 60, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40×Intrinsic + 0.60×Deck (decks present, combos absent)

Strengths

• Dual functionality: primary ritual enabler + secondary Mộ protection for các quái thú Ánh Sáng

• High accessibility in Cyber Angel với consistent tutors (Benten 92.2% co-deck rate)

• Solves the archetype's core need (ritual summoning) với clean integration and low garnet risk

• Splashable in any LIGHT-heavy deck với ritual monsters

Weaknesses

• Ritual summoning inherently trades cards for 1 body (negative resource economy)

• Resulting ritual monsters provide modest disruption vs. modern combo strategies

• No offensive interaction; entirely dependent on archetype support to generate value

• Mộ protection effect is conditional—requires LIGHT monster on field

• Archetype-specific; limited utility outside dedicated Cyber Angel or LIGHT ritual decks

Counters / choke points

• Mass Mộ removal (Dimension Fusion Destruction, D.D. Crow)

• Negation during ritual summon (Solemn Judgment, Solemn Strike)

• Removal of các quái thú Ánh Sáng before Mộ effect can activate

Best use

Ritual spell enabler; Mộ protection backup. Decks: Cyber Angel, Impcantation, Dogmatika. Suggested copies: 3.

Evidence & gaps

• Verified: Card text complete; legal in TCG, OCG, MasterDuel, DuelLinks; Used in 141 decks với average 2.59 copies per deck; Highest co-deck rate với Cyber Angel Benten (92.2%); Core partner cards are Cyber Angel ritual monsters (Idaten, Vrash, Dakini, Izana); Run at 3 copies in 71% of sample decks

• Observed: 141 decks using this card across 28 distinct archetypes; Primary usage in Cyber Angel (46.1% of sample), secondary in Impcantation (9.2%), Dogmatika (5.0%); High inclusion consistency in primary archetype; Mộ effect provides secondary zone utility for LIGHT protection

• Inferred: Ritual summoning is the core combo enabler function (no combo boards tested); Modest combo conversion due to ritual monster power levels vs. modern synchro/fusion alternatives; Resource economy is negative due to inherent ritual cost structure; Archetype-specific usage pattern limits external portability

• Data gaps: No combos supplied—combo conversion is text-only inference; cannot measure actual board efficiency or starter-to-board ratios No guides supplied—no competitive context on optimal play, matchup interactions, or meta-dependent utility Limited thống kê sử dụng (only 1 archetype với statistical data); broader archetype coverage unknown No banlist data in evidence; assumed unlimited copies Not 1 top-ranked card; no metagame ranking context available
