The Strength Algorithm, End to End
Last updated 5/21/2026
We now have the pieces. This module puts them in order.
The order matters because some states override others. Void comes before ordinary strength. Month Breaker comes before seasonal support. Day clash means different things depending on what the line already is.
If the line is void by the header, check whether the void actually bites before doing anything else.
If the Month clashes the line, mark severe damage and look for rescue later.
Read the line's element against the Month to classify ordinary strength.
The Day supports, drains, controls, breaks, or secretly activates the line. Apply the strict or working Dark Moving rule consciously.
Apply movement, binding, frames, and other line-level interactions.
Summarize what the line can actually do now.
The seasonal baseline
Use the Five Phase relationship between line and Month.
The line shares the Month's element and is very strong.
The Month feeds the line. Strong baseline.
The line gives energy away. Weak baseline.
The line is not in command of the season. Weak baseline.
The Month overpowers the line. Very weak baseline.
These are baseline labels. True void, break, movement, binding, and frames can change what the line can actually do.
Case 1 as a six-line snapshot
Month-Broken. Very weak despite being a Parent line.
Supported by Month and sitting on the Day. Very strong.
Moving, but bound by its transformation. Potential support is restricted.
The target. On the Month, therefore very strong before interactions.
Void and Day-clashed. Carries the Dark Moving attack by the case's working rule.
Seasonally suppressed but helped by the Day. Weak but present.
The important lesson is not the exact label on every line. It is the order of operations. Change the order and the reading changes.
Case 1 also preserves the rule tension from 5.4. A strict seasonal-strength reading would hesitate before calling Line 2 Dark Moving. Yehe’s case reading uses the broader working classification, so the algorithm keeps that label here and names the choice instead of hiding it.
Common traps
Void comes first. A void line is not available in the ordinary way.
If the Month clashes the line, the break overrides normal seasonal reading.
A line can be strong and still bound, blocked, or attacked.
What this module establishes
Strength analysis is ordered:
void check -> Month Breaker -> seasonal baseline -> Day modifier -> internal state -> working condition
