Card Tips:Herald of the Arc Light
- In a "Yang Zing" Deck, this card can be Synchro Summoned, preferably during the opponent's turn, with "Chiwen, Light of the Yang Zing" and "Bi'an, Earth of the Yang Zing". It will be battle indestructible, putting pressure the opponent since it can negate one of their effects.
- This can be even more effective if the effect of "Bi'an" is activated in response to a card or effect that sends monsters from the hand or Main Deck to the Graveyard at its resolution, such as "D/D Swirl Slime", "Foolish Burial", "Raiden, Hand of the Lightsworn", etc, so that those monsters will be banished.
- The effect of "Gale Dogra" and/or "Zaborg the Mega Monarch" can be used to send multiple copies of this card from the Extra Deck to the Graveyard in order to search up to 3 Ritual Monsters and/or Ritual Spell Cards.
- This card can be effective against "Shaddoll" Decks, by preventing them from gaining their advantages by being sent to the Graveyard (unless they were on the field). To the other hand, this card will mostly be 100 % effective against "Lightsworn".
- In a "Nekroz" Deck, send this card to the Graveyard by the effect of "Nekroz Kaleidoscope" to make use of this card's search effect. You can also then use the effect of "Outer Entity Nyarla" to attach this card to it as an Xyz Material, and then detach it later to make use of the search effect again. This can be repeated to thin the Deck and allow for more Ritual Summons. Note that the search effect will still be applied even if "Nyarla" leaves the field while this card is attached to it.
