 * The "Apprentice Magician" toolbox is the perfect way to take advantage of "Crush Card Virus", since you easily Special Summon DARK monsters with <1000 ATK. If you Summon "Old Vindictive Magician", you can use its Flip Effect to destroy an opponent's monster and then Tribute it for "Crush Card Virus". This is best utilized when your opponent has a monster with <1500 ATK or "Elemental Hero Wildheart" / "Tenkabito Shien" on the field.
