Card Tips:Interplanetarypurplythorny Dragon
- This card works very well in Dragon decks. Set "Masked Dragon"; then, when your opponent destroys it by battle, activate this card's effect, while Masked Dragon brings out a Tuner like "Delta Flyer" or "Magna Drago" for an easy Synchro Summon.
- This card can be searched via "Dragonic Guard", "Hieratic Dragon King of Atum, and "Ninjitsu Art of Super-Transformation"
- This card is easily used as a Tribute for "Deck Devastation Virus".
- This card is an easier to summon version of "Dragonic Knight" and can replace it for most of its purposes.
- You can use this card with "Shocktopus" when it is destroyed. Not only will your opponent have a weaker monster but you will also have a tougher monster.
- Use this card in Inca deck, since duelists often use card such as "Destruct Potion" to destroy their dragons. Also work well as Synchro Material for the Inca dragons or to protect you against direct attack.
- Use this card in Gusto deck as safety measure. All Gusto recruiters are vulnerable to destruction effects (except "Gulldo", "Squirro", and "Falco"), and this card can still provide field presence in case your opponent activate "Dark Hole" or "Torrential Tribute". Also works best if you also control "Shrine of Mist Valley". You can also place a face down Kamui, Hope of Gusto and when it's attacked use the effect to special summon a Gusto tuner and when it's actually destroyed you can use the effect of this card to summon it then summon a Gulldo with Kamui, Hope of Gusto's effect to easily summon a level 8 synchro monster.
- Use this card as backup in a Malefic deck in case you lose your field spell so you won't be left open to attack.
- Use this card in conjunction with a nuke such as "Black Rose Dragon" or "Torrential Tribute". Not only will you have the only monster on the field, but it will be a relatively powerful one.
- This card is fairly splashable, as its effect makes it very easy to special summon, and it makes a fairly effective beatstick, and can also be used for emergency defense.
