• Summon "Lava Golem" or "Volcanic Queen", giving your opponent a monster with 0 ATK for "Water Dragon" to attack.

• You can destroy "Water Dragon" with cards like Ring of Destruction and attack with the monsters summoned by "Water Dragon's" effect.

• A lesser known deck/combo is to use "Destiny Hero - Diamond Dude's" effect to use "Bonding - H2O", which next turn will get this card's effect with no cost.

• You can summon "The Creator" and use his effect to get your "Hydrogeddons" and "Oxygeddons" back from the Graveyard after they've been destroyed. It will make it easier to summon "Water Dragon", because you don't have to worry about them getting destroyed.

• Destroy all the cards on the field with "Levia-Dragon - Daedalus" when Water Dragon is also on your side, and you will automatically summon its components to the field, giving you an almost-certain OTK.

• Do not use "DNA Surgery" or "DNA Transplant" to set all monsters on the field to Pyro or Fire, as Water Dragon's effect also affects your own monsters, and will make all of them useless for attack.

• However, if you do want to use "DNA Transplant" or "DNA Surgery" a must-have card to use is "Kishido Spirit" as your monsters will also have 0 ATK points, but will always destroy your opponent's monster. The prefered card is DNA Transplant, as you can then equip a few of your monsters with "Scroll of Bewitchment" as you can turn your best monsters (namely Water Dragon itself) back into it's oringal attribute. If you use "DNA Surgery", make sure you keep several ATK raising equip cards in your deck.

• Alternatively, combine "DNA Transplant" with ways to change monster Attributes, like "Homunculus the Alchemic Being" or "Scroll of Bewitchment". If those effects are used after "DNA Transplant", you can have non-FIRE monsters. For maximum efficiency, throw in a "Final Attack Orders".

• You can have, on your side of the field, a monster that is unaffected by trap cards, like "Elemental Hero Wildheart". They will be immune to the effects of "DNA Surgery"/"DNA Transplant".

• This card is able to be summoned by "Bonding - H2O" even if it is in the Graveyard, so you never need to have more than one copy of it in your deck. Additionally, it has no use in your hand (though it can still be summoned by "Bonding - H2O"), so "Card Trader" or "Trade-In" can be used to prevent a Dead Draw.
