Data & Methodology (How scores are calculated) Season 10

Efficiency: Efficiency Score is a normalized "space ROI" metric: (estimated effect value ÷ size slots). It is NOT raw DPS.

ROI: ROI estimates assume standard round pacing and compare this item against same-tier peers by cost and slot usage.

Percentile: Percentiles are computed within the same category/tier bucket (e.g., Tech items at similar cost).

Meta Strategic Position

The Billboard is best classified as Pivot. At 24g and 3 slot(s), it’s a placement-safe (global) item where timing matters.

High cost means you should only commit if it upgrades your win condition immediately or enables a pivot. Large footprint means you must plan around board compression and sequencing.

Quick Conclusions

Verdict: Buy — based on efficiency 22 and cost 24g.
Trigger: global — placement-safe (won’t usually break).
Best synergy: Cove (score 4 • shared tags: Property, Economy, Shield, Value).


### Efficiency & ROI Analysis
Your efficiency score (22) is a *space ROI* signal, not raw DPS. This usually means it can carry a board plan if you can protect space and scale it. If you’re behind on board stability, delay the purchase until you can immediately benefit from it.

Opportunity Cost

Because it is Large, you’re paying in board space. Plan your next 2–3 rounds so you don’t choke your sequencing or block key triggers.
