Card Tips:The Calculator
- This card can be used in tandem with "Zombie World" and in combination with "Malevolent Mech - Goku En", then playing "Book of Life" with "Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon" and/or "Vampire Lord".
- This card fits in well in a Fortune Lady deck, since all the Fortune Ladies gain levels.
- This card comboes well with Machine Duplication and Woodborg Inpachi. The Calculator could have at least 5100ATK.
- This card can be searched via "Witch of the Black Forest" and "Rai-Mei".
- You can use this card in combination with "Greed Quasar" because "Greed Quasar" can increase its own level.
- Good cards to use with "The Calculator" include "Yubel", "Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys", "Fusilier Dragon, the Dual-Mode Beast", "Metal Reflect Slime", "Guardian of Order", "Beast King Barbaros and "Cyber Dragon".
- If afer normal-summoning a "Fusilier Dragon, the Dual-Mode Beast" to the field using its effects, you reduce its ATK with "Shooting Star Bow - Ceal"; you can use "Machine Duplication" and get more "Fusilier Dragons". This will give you (2) 2800 ATK monsters, (1) 400 ATK monster that can direct-attack, and 6300 ATK-boost to "The calculator" (6900 ATK points). In total, the ATK of all your monsters combined would be 12900, more than enough to OTK.
- "Miniaturize" can be used too, but doesn't work as well.
- If afer normal-summoning a "Fusilier Dragon, the Dual-Mode Beast" to the field using its effects, you reduce its ATK with "Shooting Star Bow - Ceal"; you can use "Machine Duplication" and get more "Fusilier Dragons". This will give you (2) 2800 ATK monsters, (1) 400 ATK monster that can direct-attack, and 6300 ATK-boost to "The calculator" (6900 ATK points). In total, the ATK of all your monsters combined would be 12900, more than enough to OTK.
- By activating 3 "Metal Reflect Slimes" on the turn you summon this card, its ATK will be at least 9600 or more (in case you have another monster on the field). In the case that your opponent has no cards on his/her field, it'll be an OTK.
- If you have no monsters you can Special Summon "Cyber Dragon" then Normal Summon "The Calculator". Both monsters will have 2100 atk. You can also Special Summon "Guardian of Order" and increase attack of "The Calculator" to 4500.
- You can also use "Graceful Revival" to bring it back from graveyard. And if his ATK is 1500 or less you can activate "Inferno Reckless Summon" and bring 2 more on the field.
- This card could make a good combo with "Junk Warrior".
- On a similar note, if you use the effect of "Junk Synchron" to bring this card back, it is then a legal target for "Inferno Reckless Summon", provided your opponent has a monster out. Then, you can Synchro Summon into Junk Warrior, who will have an impressive 7700 attack points, with each of The Calculator at 2700 ATK.
- This card is great in many swarm decks that use level 4 monsters, particularly Crystal Beasts, as it will benefit from the decent amount of total levels on the field from multiple monsters.
- This card works well in a Batteryman deck thanks to its type (which can power up "Batteryman Charger" or serve to feed the effect of "Batteryman Industrial Strength"). In a single turn, a player could Normal Summon "The Calculator", Special Summon "Batteryman Industrial Strength", and attack for a combined total of 5600 damage.
- This card works well in a Swarm deck.
- Yubel works well with this card, and each time your opponent destroys a Yubel card, Yubel gets stronger, and so does this card.
- This card works well in a "The Creator" deck since it´s level is 8 and The Calculator is 2 you can summon The Calculator with 3000 ATK without tribute.
- This card works tremendously well with a Pyramid of Light Deck, everytime you special summon Theinen the Great Sphinx, Andro Sphinx or Sphinx Teleia who are all level 10 monsters, that's an extra 3000 ATK which means you could max The Calculator out to over 12000 ATK more than enough for an OTK.
- This card also works well with "LV" monsters because they can get high Level cards out very quickly.
- This card works well with Tragoedia, since it is a Level 10 Monster, can Special Summon itself and change its Level.
- This card is also useful in a Dragon Deck based on Five-Headed Dragon, since it is a Level 12 Monster and can easily be summoned by using Dragon's Mirror or Future Fusion.
- Instead of Five-Headed Dragon, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon is a good choice as well.
- In addition, Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon can power up this card further, since it can special summon itself and another high level Dragon-Type Monster.
- This card works well in a Fabled Deck. Fabled Raven is able to increase its own level and ATK by discarding cards. If you discard The Fabled Cerburrel or Fabled Krus by this effect, you will get another monster out to further increase this cards ATK.
