• If used to Fusion Summon monsters that require a great amount of Monster Materials (like "Chimeratech Overdragon" or "Worm Zero"), this card can be a useful Deck Thinner and/or Graveyard Filler. This can be useful for many different strategies:
  • Filling your graveyard
    • In Traditional Format, use this card in combination with "Exchange of the Spirit". Use this to Summon "Chimeratech Overdragon", removing at least 15 Machine-type monsters from your deck. Then activate "Exchange of the Spirit" during your opponent's turn, causing them to lose by deck-out on their next turn.
    • This card can serve as a double Foolish Burial in a Gemini monsters deck, providing targets for Blazewing Butterfly,Woodland Archer,Supervise and Black Brutdrago while also sending high level creatures such as Phoenix Gearfried,Chthonian Emperor Dragon and Grasschopper to the graveyard to be Special Summoned later, while also preventing you from dead drawing them.
    • You can send 1 DARK Fiend-Type and 1 LIGHT Fairy-Type to your Graveyard by selecting St. Joan as your Fusion Monster. That's half the requirement of Sky Scourge Norleras or Sky Scourge Enrise, and in Traditional Format, that's all you need for Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning, Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End, or Chaos Sorcerer.
    • By sending 3 DARK Dragon type monsters to your graveyard and 2 other Dragon type monsters, you can easily special summon a "Dark Armed Dragon" and in two turns you will get "Five-Headed Dragon" onto the field as well.
    • In a "Dragunity" deck, this card, combined with "Five-Headed Dragon", can be used as a "Painful Choice" + 1. Send Dragon-type "Dragunity" monsters to your graveyard, and they can be latter equipped with your other "Dragunity" monsters, and in 2 turns, if your "Future Fusion" isn't destroyed, you will have a massive monster.
      • In a Dragunity deck that has a few DARK Dragons, you can send both Dragon-type Dragunity monsters and DARK Dragons to Special Summon "Dark Simorgh".
    • Target Five-Headed Dragon and then use Pot of Avarice, essentially getting you a free F.G.D. (If Future Fusion isn't destroyed)
    • Send 5 DARK monsters when choosing Five-Headed Dragon or Chimeratech Overdragon as the Fusion monster so that you can easily Summon Dark Creator, then you can Summon whatever monster that is useful at that moment.
    • Use this card with UFOroid Fighter and select Necro Gardna as the other Fusion Material Monster to use his effect later on, plus you get an 1800 ATK monster after 2 turns.
  • Summoning monsters from graveyard
    • You can send a massive amount of machines to the Graveyard by selecting Chimeratech Overdragon as your Fusion Monster. Players often then use Bazoo the Soul-Eater, Skull Lair or Overload Fusion to remove those machines from play, then summon them with Dimension Fusion and Return from the Different Dimension.
    • You can send 3 Jinzo - Returner and 3 Jinzo to the graveyard and use Jinzo - Returner's effect and special summon all 3 Jinzo.
    • "Ultimate Ancient Gear Golem" works well due to the fact that if "Ultimate Ancient Gear Golem" is destroyed by Future Fusion's effect, you can bring back an "Ancient Gear Golem".
  • Fusing from your graveyard
    • By sending 5 Dragon-type monsters to your graveyard with Future Fusion (including 3 Blue-Eyes White Dragon), you can use Dragon's Mirror to obtain either two Five-Headed Dragons or a Five-Headed and Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon.
    • If you select an Elemental Hero monster as your Fusion Monster, it will also send those monsters into the Graveyard, which you can then fuse with Miracle Fusion or Dark Calling. The best monster to use for this would be Elemental Hero Electrum, which will put 4 Elemental Heroes in the Graveyard. Then, when "Miracle Fusion" is used for a second "Elemental Hero Electrum", its effect will send all four Elemental Heroes back to your Deck to be used again later in the Duel.
    • This combo is great for later in a duel. Use Future Fusion to send Cyberdark Horn, Cyberdark Edge, and Cyberdark Keel to the graveyard, then activate Cyberdark Impact! to send them back into the deck to get out a Cyberdark Dragon instantly, and equip him with a Dragon from your graveyard, then 2 turns later, you get your second one.
      • This combo can also be used in reverse order, using Cyberdark Impact! first, then activating Future Fusion to send them back from the deck to the grave, and follow it up with Overload Fusion to special summon a third one.
  • Get one strong offensive
    • Activate Future Fusion to Special Summon 1 Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, activate De-Fusion then Delta Attacker to inflict 9000 points of damage.
    • You can use this card to Summon Worm Zero with 13,000 ATK if you use the other 25 Duel Terminal series Worms, as well as Worm Drake. Then use Zero's effect to send all of your opponent's monsters to the Graveyard.
    • You can target Chimeratech Overdragon and send 15 DARK Machine-type monsters to the graveyard and remove 7 to summon Rainbow Dark Dragon, and then remove the rest to boost its ATK to 8000 for a possible OTK
  • Dragon-oriented combos
    • Dragon cards can be used in conjunction with Future Fusion to perform an OTK. If you have Future Fusion and Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon in your hand with 1 playable Dragon, Monster Reborn, and Giant Trunade, you can use Giant Trunade to remove all Spell and Trap Cards from the field. Then, activate Future Fusion, select Five-Headed Dragon, and send four high-ATK Dragon cards plus 1 Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon from your deck to the Graveyard. Play the playable Dragon from your hand and use the effect of the Red-Eyes in your hand to remove the dragon from play and summon Red-Eyes. Then, activate Monster Reborn to revive the Red-Eyes in your Graveyard. Activate the Dragon-revival special ability of both cards to bring back your high-ATK Dragons in the Graveyard. Use 1 Red-Eyes to take out your opponent's monster. Use your remaining Dragons to remove the rest of his lifepoints. If this fails, providing you still have Future Fusion on the field, you will still get a Five-Headed Dragon later in the duel.
    • Activate "Future Fusion" and choose 3 "The White Stone of Legend" and 2 other dragons, to summon "Five-Headed Dragon" in 2 turns, plus you get to add 3 Blue-Eyes White Dragon to your hand. If you have Polymerization in your hand, you can summon a Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, if you have a Dragon's Mirror you can summon a Five-Headed Dragon before the other is Summoned in 2 turns. Or use the 3 Blue-Eyes White Dragons to special summon Montage Dragon with 7200 ATK.
      • You can also use Red-Eyes Wyvern and Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon as the other two monsters for Future Fusion, and as long as you did not Normal Summon or Set this turn you will have Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon, plus three Blue-Eyes and a F.G.D. coming in two turns.
        • An even nastier version of this last idea is to use Future Fusion to send 5 Dragons to the graveyard, then use Giant Trunade and play future fusion again. This time send 2 Red-Eyes Wyverns and 2 Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragons. Play Dragon's Mirror to summon Five-Headed Dragon, but don't remove the "Red-Eyes" monsters from play. At the end of your turn, activate the Wyvern's effect to Summon both of the Darkness Metal Dragons. That is 2 "Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon"s summoned in one turn, a Five-Headed in 2 turns, and you can use the metals to later Summon Dragons that weren't removed from play by Dragon's Mirror. The best thing is this strategy only requires having 3 cards in your hand!

• After activating Future Fusion, use Swords of Revealing Light, or Nightmare's Steelcage, to stall for time until your Fusion Monster is Summoned to the field.

• Do not actually attempt to Summon Chimeratech Overdragon with this card and expect it to stay on the field. Chimeratech Overdragon's effect will destroy Future Fusion when it is summoned, thus also destroying your Chimeratech Overdragon. Instead, use Future Fusion's cost to fill up your graveyard, then use Overload Fusion.

• If you have Spell Canceller on the field you can use an effect to destroy Future Fusion without destroying your Fusion Monster.

• Use Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier, Giant Trunade or Ally of Justice Cyclone Creator to re-use this card so that you can send more monsters to the Graveyard then you can use the tips above this one even better.

• Use this card, revealing Elemental HERO Divine Neos, to send monsters you can later return to your Deck with Miracle Contact.
