• Discard this card to Special Summon "The Tricky", then Special Summon "Reeze, Whirlwind of Gusto" from your deck. Then Normal Summon "Gusto Egul", and swap him with your opponent's best monster with "Reeze's" effect. Destroy "Egul" by battle, then Special Summon "Caam, Serenity of Gusto" and use her effect to draw 1 card. Afterwards you can overlay "Reeze" and "The Tricky" to summon a rank 5 Xyz monster if necessary.
• Use this with "One for One" to Special Summon "Gusto Egul", then by its effect, Special Summon "Reeze, Whirlwind of Gusto" from your Deck for a quick Synchro Summon of "Daigusto Sphreeze". Plus, you can get an Extra Normal Summon to summon any Searcher from the Grave (using Sphreeze's effect) or your Hand.
• "Lady Ninja Yae" works well with this card. However, since "Lady Ninja Yae" isn't Gusto monster, you can't use her to Synchro Summon any "Daigusto" monsters (as they usually need non-Tuner "Gusto" monsters) even though you Special Summon a Gusto Tuner monster via Grif's effect.
  • Fortunately, Grif is also a Gusto monster, so it can be used for another purpose such as with "Junk Synchron" for Synchro Summoning "Daigusto Gulldos".
  • Also, since Grif is also Winged Beast-type, you can choose to Synchro Summon "Vortex the Whirlwind" instead, which later can grant access to Winda-Gulldo-Egul defense line, or Tribute it for "Icarus Attack".
