- If you fear your opponent's potential responses to your attacks, just attack with "U.A. Mighty Slugger" and use this card's effect to boost that monster's ATK. As a result, your opponent will also be unable to respond to this card's effect.
- After using this card's effect, during your Main Phase 2, Special Summon another "U.A" monster by returning this monster to your hand, so that you don't have to suffer the consequences of this monster having low ATK. Additionally, the next time you Summon this card, it will have its original ATK.
