Card Tips:Doomkaiser Dragon/Assault Mode
- This card can be searched by "Assault Mode Activate", "Assault Reboot", "Psi-Reflector", "Glow-Up Bloom", and other generic searchers.
- If this card is in your hand, use "Card Trader" or any other card that could shuffle this card back into the Deck, since "Assault Mode Activate" only Special Summons the "/Assault Mode" monster from the Deck.
- If there is two copies of "Despair from the Dark" among the monsters Summoned by this card's effect, you can Xyz Summon "Number 22: Zombiestein".
- Use "Zombie World" to make all monsters in both player's graveyard Zombie-type monsters.
- Also, if you control "Zombie World" and at least 1 "Soul-Absorbing Bone Tower" before summoning this monster, you can create an effective Deck Out strategy.
- While "Soul-Absorbing Bone Tower" is on the field, Normal Summon "Zombie Master" and use its effect to Special Summon "Plaguespreader Zombie". Synchro Summon "Doomkaiser Dragon", then use its effect to Special Summon one of your opponent's monsters. Then activate "Assault Mode Activate" to Special Summon this card and Special Summon 3 other Zombies from either player's Graveyard for a total of 10 cards discarded from your opponent's deck in one turn.
- You could add to the number of cards discarded by Special Summoning "Plaguespreader Zombie" and another Level 4 Zombie with this card's effect, and use them to Synchro Summon another "Doomkaiser Dragon" or "Revived King Ha Des". This way, your opponent loses 12 cards from their deck, and your newly Synchro summoned monster doesn't get destroyed at the end phase by this card's effect. If you Synchro Summon a second "Doomkaiser Dragon" this way, you can use its effect once again to Special Summon another one of your opponent's monsters, bringing the discard count to 14.
- While "Soul-Absorbing Bone Tower" is on the field, Normal Summon "Zombie Master" and use its effect to Special Summon "Plaguespreader Zombie". Synchro Summon "Doomkaiser Dragon", then use its effect to Special Summon one of your opponent's monsters. Then activate "Assault Mode Activate" to Special Summon this card and Special Summon 3 other Zombies from either player's Graveyard for a total of 10 cards discarded from your opponent's deck in one turn.
- Also, if you control "Zombie World" and at least 1 "Soul-Absorbing Bone Tower" before summoning this monster, you can create an effective Deck Out strategy.
- Use this card's effect to Special Summon 3 more Zombie-Type monsters from your graveyard (include "Doomkaiser Dragon" if needed), then Special Summon "Kasha" from your hand to 'recycle' them back to your deck. You'll also leave your opponent's field open for a direct attack.
- Bring back "Plaguespreader Zombie" along with any number of Zombies for an easy Synchro Summon.
- You can use "Union Attack" to increase this card's ATK equal to every monster you have, keep in mind, that the monster will not inflict any Battle Damage to your opponent, and other face-up Attack Position monsters cannot attack.
- Since the monsters you summon will be destroyed at the end of the turn, after you attack with them, activate "Assault Slash", so that all monsters will be destroyed and you can summon "Doomkaiser Dragon" and an opposing Zombie.
- You can respond to this card's destruction by activating "A Deal with Dark Ruler". This way, you can Special Summon "Berserk Dragon" as well as "Doomkaiser Dragon".
- If you have this card on your field when you clear the field, with a card like "Black Rose Dragon", you'll both clear the field and attack your opponent's life points directly with the non-"/Assault Mode" version of this card.
Traditional Format[edit]
- If you don't have many monsters in your Graveyard and you're planning on Summon this card, activate "Painful Choice" to fill your Graveyard with Zombie-Type monsters.
- If "Zombie World" is activated, you can send 3 copies of "Earthbound Immortal Cusillu" or any other Special-Summonable Level 10 monster, and you will be able to Xyz Summon "Superdimensional Robot Galaxy Destroyer" or "Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Gustav Max".
- If you send 3 copies of "Ultimate Obedient Fiend" and Special Summon all of them, you'll have (3 x 3500) + 2900 = 13400, and in many cases, that mean an OTK.
- If "Zombie World" is activated, you can send 3 copies of "Earthbound Immortal Cusillu" or any other Special-Summonable Level 10 monster, and you will be able to Xyz Summon "Superdimensional Robot Galaxy Destroyer" or "Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Gustav Max".
- Combine with "Card of Safe Return" to draw cards for each monster Special Summoned by this card's effect (in this case, the monsters must be only from your Graveyard).
