If this card is Special Summoned to a zone a Link Monster points to: Destroy all Link Monsters that point to this card, then destroy all other monsters that those Link Monsters pointed to, and follow the Link Arrows of all those destroyed monsters, destroying everything they point to, and repeating the process, until there are no more to destroy. (This card cannot be destroyed by this effect.) You can only use this effect of "Voltester" once per turn.
Voltester — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 45 ± 12 · Confidence: Low
- Intrinsic: 45 · Deck: — · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Board breaker · Secondary: Material body
Why it scores here
Voltester's score comes from its conditional chain-destruction effect, which only turns on when it is Special Summoned into a zone a Link Monster points to, and it is once per turn. Its 2500 ATK and Level 7 body earn nothing on their own; the material score is modest because a plain Level 7 body is only a moderate material. With no deck, combo, or guide evidence, the score is provisional (Final = Intrinsic) and carries a wide band.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 25 | Needs a Link Monster already on the field pointing at an open zone, and no searcher or hand-route evidence exists (inferred from text; no combo starter data) |
| Combo & Conversion | 45 | The chain can destroy several Link Monsters and the monsters they point to when it triggers, but no recorded board shows it converting (verified text; no combo evidence) |
| Resource Economy | 50 | It is a one-for-many removal with no recorded refuel or card-advantage line (inferred from text; no combo stats) |
| Effect & Interaction | 55 | Strong multi-target removal, but it depends on the Link-zone trigger and is once per turn (verified text) |
| Material Utility | 45 | A Level 7 DARK Thunder body is usable as material for Level 7 summons, but no material usage was observed (verified stats; inferred use) |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 35 | Its own effect cannot destroy it, but the once-per-turn limit and the Link-zone trigger leave it awkward to use across turns (verified text) |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 70 | No archetype, garnet or banlist token is recorded, so it is assumed to be a clean three-copy card (inferred; no banlist token) |
Calculation
Weight profile: 0.7 Board breaker + 0.3 Material body. Intrinsic ≈ 45, Deck ≈ —, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: Final = Intrinsic (no decks and no combos; Deck is null)
Strengths
- Chain-destruction effect that can clear several Link Monsters and their pointed monsters in one activation (verified text)
- Level 7 DARK Thunder body that can serve as material (verified stats)
- Cannot be destroyed by its own effect (verified text)
Weaknesses
- Needs a Link Monster pointing at an open zone before it can trigger (verified text)
- Once per turn (verified text)
- No archetype or searcher route, so access is hard to guarantee (inferred)
- No recorded deck or combo use (data gap)
Counters / choke points
- Negating the Special Summon or the Link Monster that makes the zone live would stop the trigger (inferred from text)
Best use
Situational Link-zone board breaker.
