- This card can be searched via "Sangan", "Chaos-End Master", "Shining Angel", "UFOroid", "Falchionβ" and "Damage Condenser".
- Use stalling cards such as "Swords of Revealing Light", "Nightmare's Steelcage", "Spirit Barrier", etc. to allow time to pass without having your Satellite hit by an attack. When your Satellite is ready, destroy your opponent's monsters via card effects or other attacking monsters and have it attack for the final blow.
- "Satellite Cannon" is also a good way to bypass "Wall of Revealing Light".
- Take advantage of the fact that "Satellite Cannon" has low ATK while in the Deck, Graveyard. and while you're waiting for it to pump itself up. "Shining Angel" and "UFOroid" can Special Summon it, and "Machine Duplication" and "Inferno Reckless Summon" allow you to triple your attacking force.
- Best used with "Royal Decree" to prevent the use of Trap Cards like "Magic Cylinder" when its ATK is very high.
- Use "Limiter Removal" to make the ATK increase faster.
- When using "Gravity Bind", all monsters level 4 or higher cannot attack, and since "Satellite Cannon" can only be destroyed by a monster of level 7 or higher, it is effectively invincible in battle. Once it is sufficiently charged, you can destroy or negate "Gravity Bind" using cards such "Emergency Provisions", "Royal Decree", or "Giant Trunade", allowing "Satellite Cannon" to attack. Even better, you could equip "Satellite Cannon" with "Demotion" to let it attack without letting your opponent's monsters do so.
- To make "Satellite Cannon's" attacks more effective, equip it with "Shooting Star Bow - Ceal".
- As this card cannot be destroyed by battle with a monster of level 7 or lower, you can use this as a suicide weapon to take out strong monsters with an ATK of a multiple of 1000.
- When your opponent attacks, activate "Staunch Defender" or "Patrician of Darkness" and also activate "Fairy Box". Since your Satellite isn't attacking, your opponent may lose many monsters and life points to a single Level 5 monster in a single turn- and it will still have its charged attack power.
- Have an "Honest" in your hand for emergency (e.g. your opponent have a monster which is Level 8 or above and have a attack higher than "Satellite Cannon").
- Destroy a monster with "Chaos-End Master", then Special Summon "Satellite Cannon". Use "Machine Duplication" to fetch 2 more copies of your monster, and let them power up on your End Phase. You'll accumulate a lot of ATK points very quickly this way, maybe enough for an OTK.
- Use the effect of "Beast King Barbaros" to get rid of all opponent's cards and attack with "Satellite Cannon".
- A good OTK would be including the card above, "Beast King Barbaros", two Satellite Cannon on the field (along with 3 monsters on the field already, preferably with high DEF, such as "Gear Golem the Moving Fortress") with 2000 ATK each (or one with 4000 ATK, works just as well), and a "Limiter Removal" on hand. Tribute Summon Beast King Barbaros with 3 Tributes, clearing the opponent's field, activate Limiter Removal, revving up their ATK to 4000 each (or 8000 if only using one) and attack directly for an OTK. This strategy would be more effective if used with a Stall Deck.
- Use "Silent Strider" to decrease the levels of your oponents monsters.
- Since the effect that causes "Satellite Cannon" to lose the "ATK" points it accumulates is a "Trigger Effect", "Angel O7" can combine with Satellite Cannon to allow the ATK it gains be permanent even if you attack with it.
- "Satellite Cannon" only loses attack points when it attacks. Using Battle Mania can let you bypass this effect by making other monsters attack it.
- You can use a recently-summoned "Satellite Cannon" in conjuction with "Machine Duplication" to Special Summon up to 2 more copies from your deck. Then, use 2 of those monsters as Xyz Material for Tiras, Keeper of Genesis or other Rank 5 cards.
