  • Since this card's third effect has a much greater cost than its second effect, the second effect may be preferable to use. You likely can inflict more damage by attacking with this card than by using the third effect, and getting rid of your opponent's Spell and Trap Cards make that easier.
  • One of the easiest ways to Synchro Summon this card is to Special Summon "Cyber Dragon", then Normal Summon "Junk Synchron" and activate its effect to Special Summon a Level 2 monster in the graveyard.
  • Although you cannot activate its effect without any LIGHT attribute monster on your opponent's side of the field, it can still use as a powerful beatstick to dominate monsters with ATK below 3300 such as "Gladiator Beast Heraklinos".
  • Much like the rest of the "Allies of Justice", you can use "DNA Transplant" to make all your opponent's monsters LIGHT attribute allowing you to use one of this card's effects if they have any monster face-up on the field.
  • This card can be used effectively against "Lightsworn" decks.
  • Use this card's 3rd effect when you have few cards in hand to make your opponent discard all their copies of "Honest", allowing you to deal a safe attack and extra damage too.
  • "Lightsworns" and many other Decks based on LIGHT attribute monsters play the Trap Card "Beckoning Light". Use this card's 1st or 2nd effect to avoid your opponent using "Beckoning Light" to retrieve copies of "Judgment Dragon" or "Honest". While your opponent can chain their Trap Card to your effect, doing so would enable massive damage through the 3rd effect of this card.
  • You can summon this quite easily in a deck of Gemini Monsters. Simply use "Gemini Soldier's" effect to summon a "Tuned Magician" and Gemini Summon "Tuned Magician" to tune the two monsters with another level 4 monster. You can do this even more easily if your monster attacks "Gemini Soldier" and triggers its effect again when you lack the second level 4 monster.
  • In an "Infernity" deck, this card can discard all you cards to achieve your handless combo.
  • Synchro Summon a Level 5 Synchro Monster using "Plaguespreader Zombie" and "Beast of the Pharaoh" as the materials. Then, use the effect of "Beast of the Pharaoh" to bring itself back and Special Summon "Plaguespreader Zombie" with its own effect. You will now have the materials to Synchro Summon "Ally of Justice Decisive Armor".
  • This card could cripple an opponent using Worm decks, since all recent Reptile-type Worms are light attribute, especially if your opponent is holding copies of Worm King and Worm Queen, both at 2700 ATK each, for a possible OTK.
