* "[[Inari Fire]]" can be a useful monster to pair with this card, since it only Special Summons itself during its owner's next Standby Phase (if destroyed by a card effect).

"Ecole de Zone":
  • Since this card's effect destroys the first single monster Summoned by the turn player during each turn, it can potentially benefit Decks such as "Fire King", "Meklord", "Unchained", and "Yang Zing" (which benefit from their users destroying their own monsters), as well as other miscellaneous strategies.
    • "Malefic" Decks can also benefit, as not only is this card a Field Spell (which their monsters need to avoid self-destruction), but it also destroys the "Malefic" monsters (replacing them with an equivalent "Mask Token"), allowing the "Malefic" user to circumvent their monsters' ubiquitous 'There can only be 1 "Malefic" monster on the field.' effect and self-destructive effect. Furthermore, this Spell's effect can also trigger the self-Summoning effect of "Malefic Truth Dragon".
      • However, it is also important to note that the common "Malefic" monster effect 'Other monsters you control cannot attack' will still apply to the "Mask Tokens"; therefore, this strategy is most effective when only 1 "Malefic" monster is Summoned per turn.
    • "Timelord" Decks can benefit from using this card, since practically none of their monsters can't be destroyed by card effects, therefore leaving only the opponent affected by it.
    • By destroying a monster such as "Baobaboon", "Marshmacaron", or "Reborn Tengu", whose effect Special Summons more copies of itself, this card's effect can help enable Xyz and Link Summons.
    • This card's effect can be useful for triggering monster effects that only activate when destroyed by a card effect, such as "Mystic Potato" and "Necro Fleur".
  • Since this card's effect produces Spellcaster-Type Tokens, cards such as "Last Day of Witch" and "Puppet Plant" can be used to take advantage of this.
  • "Decisive Battle of Golgonda" can be used together with this card to prevent its user's monsters from being destroyed by this Field Spell's effect.
  • "Inari Fire" can be a useful monster to pair with this card, since it only Special Summons itself during its owner's next Standby Phase (if destroyed by a card effect). Therefore, its Special Summon is usually its owner's first Summon that turn, allowing the owner to Summon other monsters safely for the rest of the turn.

  • Since this card's effect does not activate for Flip Summons, Setting monsters can help avoid its destructive effect.
  • If the player controls a sufficiently high-Level monster while "Level Eater" is in their Graveyard, "Level Eater" can activate its effect multiple times (being destroyed by this Field Spell's effect each time) to produce "Mask Tokens" en masse, which can be taken advantage of in various ways.
