* Special summon another copy of this card to XYZ summon a Rank 5.
  
* Tribute Summon this card with "[[Steelswarm Gatekeeper]]" as Tribute. You can use the effect of "Steelswarm Mantis" to Special Summon "Gatekeeper" back for 1000 LP. Because "Gatekeeper" is now face-up on the field during a turn in which you Tribute Summoned a "[[Steelswarm]]" monster, you may then perform a second Tribute Summon. Use the revived "Gatekeeper" to Tribute Summon another powerful "Steelswarm" monster such as "[[Steelswarm Girastag]]", or another "Mantis" to repeat the cycle.

* Tribute "Steelswarm Caller" for "Steelswarm Mantis". Special summon "[[Steelswarm Needle]]" with "Steelswarm Callers" effect, then special summon "Steelswarm Caller" with "Steelswarm Mantis's" effect. Xyz summon for "[[Verz Bahamut]]". You can now detach "Steelswarm Needle" from "Verz Bahamut" to 1) Take controll of one of your opponents monsters and 2) Destroy one of your opponents face up fusion, ritual, or synchro monsters.
** This combo works just as well if you have "Steelswarm Gatekeeper" in your Graveyard. You can use any Steelswarm monster such as "[[Steelswarm Cell]]" to Tribute Summon "Mantis", then use its effect to revive "Gatekeeper" and Summon a second time.
 
 
 
* If you sacrificed "[[Steelswarm Caller]]" to Summon this card, you can [[Special Summon]] both "Steelswarm Gatekeeper" from your Deck and the same "Steelswarm Caller" from your Graveyard. With "Steelswarm Gatekeeper" face-up, you can once again [[Tribute Summon]] for "[[Steelswarm Hercules]]". Since you Tributed "Steelswarm Caller" again, Special Summon another "Steelswarm" monster. Alternately, use the two Special Summoned monsters for the Xyz Summon of "[[Steelswarm Roach]]".
 
**Another use of this combo is to tribute "Steelswarm Caller" for "Steelswarm Mantis". Special summon "[[Steelswarm Needle]]" with "Steelswarm Callers" effect, then special summon "Steelswarm Caller" with "Steelswarm Mantis's" effect. Xyz summon for "[[Verz Bahamut]]". You can now detach "Steelswarm Needle" from "Verz Bahamut" to 1) Take controll of one of your opponents monsters and 2) Destroy one of your opponents face up fusion, ritual, or synchro monsters.
 
  
 
* Using "[[Recurring Nightmare]]" will let you add both "[[Steelswarm Cell]]" and "Steelswarm Mantis" to your hand. You can then Special Summon "Steelswarm Cell" to make for an easy Tribute Summon before using Mantis' effect to revive another Steelswarm.
 
* Using "[[Recurring Nightmare]]" will let you add both "[[Steelswarm Cell]]" and "Steelswarm Mantis" to your hand. You can then Special Summon "Steelswarm Cell" to make for an easy Tribute Summon before using Mantis' effect to revive another Steelswarm.
