"House Duston":

"Remove Brainwashing" and "Owner's Seal" can allow you to keep the "Dustons" you Summon to your side of the field.

The easiest way to use this card would be to attack a low-ATK monster (or reduce the ATK of an opponent's monster) and attack that monster with this.
- However, a similar trick could be pulled off using a card like "Asura Priest" to suicide your "House Duston" and then attacking all the Dustons you summon for massive damage.
- Use cards like "Darkworld Shackles" to reduce the opponent's monster's ATK to a reasonable amount. Then, you can kill it with another monster after you use up your "House Duston".
- Also, one can use this card together with "Final Attack Orders" and "Mirror Mail" to lockdown an aggressive opponent's entire field on the second turn. To do so, you must take the first turn, or at least produce a similar scenario if attempted later in the game– as it is important that the opponent only uses 1 monster to attack on the following turn. Set the two trap cards and "House Duston," then wait for the opponent to attack. When they do, use both traps to force "House Duston" into attack mode with equal ATK as the attacking monster. The two destroy each other, and you will be able to unload 10 "Duston" monsters in one play.

For optimal results, summon (up to) 3 copies of "White Duston" and 2 copies of "House Duston" to your side of the field, as these monsters can still be tributed or used for Synchro, Fusion, and Xyz Summons.
- In fact, a powerful combo can be achieved by Xyz Summoning "Number 13: Cain's Doom" and "Number 31: Abel's Doom", which can be created using 3 "White Duston" and a "House Duston". These two cards can lock down your opponent and force all of the Dustons they control to attack these cards, thereby triggering their effects.

You can reuse "House Duston's" effect by summoning "Kinka-byo" while "House Duston" is in the graveyard.

A good combination with "House Duston's" effect is "Goblin King". Since all "Duston" monsters are "Fiends", Goblin King can potentially reach 8000 ATK (9000 if the opponent had a fiend-type monster to begin with).

Use cards like "Ceasefire" and "Just Desserts" to burn your opponent for extremely large quantities of damage at one time.

As an alternative strategy, this card can be used as a Deck thinner, since it can thin your Deck by up to 10 cards at once, although you should be careful with the "Dustons" negative effects.

This card can be searched by "Sangan", "Last Will" and "Witch of the Black Forest".
