- This card can be searched by "Genex Blastfan", "Genex Power Planner", "Genex Searcher", "Vindikite R-Genex", "Genex Neutron", "Tuner's High", "Chaofeng, Phantom of the Yang Zing", "Hot Red Dragon Archfiend Bane", "Orcust Crescendo", "Gear Gigant X", "Machina Armored Unit", "Psychic Arsenal", "UFOroid", "Mystic Potato", "Mystic Tomato", "Chaos Zone", "Sphere of Chaos", "Serpentine Princess", "Battle Royal Mode - Joining", "Vampire Dragon", "Rescue Ferret", "Umbramirage the Elemental Lord", "Sangan", "Witch of the Black Forest", and other generic searchers.
- Combine this card with monster stealing cards like "Enemy Controller", "Mind Control" etc. Swipe their monster, then return it to their hand while Summoning a Tuner with up to 1900 ATK.
- Use this card with any monster that has an effect that activates when it is Summoned from the hand, like "Breaker the Magical Warrior", "Dragunity Arma Mystletainn" or even "Fortune Lady Wind".
- You can use this card to recycle the effects of Effect Monsters that only activate when they are Tribute Summoned by returning the Tribute Summoned monster to your hand, whereupon you can Normal Summon it again with this card as Tribute. (This combo can be used with "Monarchs" or "Dark Dust Spirit").
- Use this card with "Mist Valley Thunderbird", which will Special Summon itself and give "Birdman" an extra 500 ATK.
- This card works well with "Phantom Skyblaster", since its effect allows you to Summon Level 4 Tokens up to the number of monsters you control. After Normal Summoning "Skyblaster", bounce it to Special Summon "Birdman" and then perform a Level 7 Synchro Summon.
- Special Summon this card by its own effect, then discard the monster returned to your hand for the effect of "Genex Ally Axel", allowing you to Special Summon a monster of the Level appropriate for a needed Synchro. This will allow you to Synchro Summon a monster between Levels 4 and 7.
- Use it in "Six Samurai" Decks. Return "Great Shogun Shien", "Grandmaster of the Six Samurai" or "Legendary Six Samurai - Kizan" - the first two especially, as you can Special Summon them for free to produce Bushido Counters.
- This card can make a OTK - and potentially FTK - combo with "Koa'ki Meiru Doom" and "Gallis the Star Beast" (see God Bird of Doom FTK for details).
- This card works well in a "Monarch" Deck.
- Use this card to return "Machina Fortress" to your hand and Synchro Summon with "Machina Gearframe" or one of the "Gadgets" for a Level 7. That way "Fortress" can be Summoned from your hand at any time. "Karakuri Shogun mdl 00 "Burei"" or "Black Rose Dragon" should be your first choices for "Machina", "Gadgets" and Chimeratech OTK, respectively. The former preserves "Solidarity", while the latter will prevent your opponent from blocking your "Chimeratech Overdragon" with Trap Cards, and your field would be wiped after using "Overload Fusion" anyways. Even with only "Cyber Dragon" and "Gearframe" in the Graveyard, as long as you can drop "Fortress", you will OTK.
- This card works well in a "X-Saber" Deck to re-use the effects of "XX-Saber Boggart Knight", "XX-Saber Ragigura", and especially "XX-Saber Faultroll". After reviving a monster with "Faultroll", you can bounce it for "Birdman", then re-Summon "Faultroll" and use its effect again. With two Level 3 non-Tuner "X-Saber" monsters, you can Synchro for "Mist Wurm" or "XX-Saber Gottoms". Combine with "XX-Saber Darksoul" to get multiple "Faultrolls" quickly.
- This card works really well with "Reborn Tengu". Normal Summon your "Tengu", then return it to the hand with "Birdman". With this combo, you can make a Level 7 Synchro (which will get another "Tengu") and still have one in hand to work with later.
- This card can be used in conjunction with "Dragunity Dux" and "Dragunity Phalanx" where you can swap out "Phalanx" to Synchro Summon a Level 7 monster instead.
- Special Summon "Level Warrior" with its own effect, and then bounce it back for this card. Then Normal Summon "Level Warrior" again for a quick Level 6 Synchro Summon or Rank 3 Xyz Summon.
- When you have a monster in your Graveyard, you can use "Monster Reborn" to retrieve that monster, return it to your hand to Special Summon this card, then Normal Summon the monster you just reborn.
- This card can be used to return monsters whose effects have been negated by cards such as "Effect Veiler" to the hand so that you have another shot at activating their effects the next turn.
- This card works very well with "Junk Synchron". You can Normal Summon "Junk Synchron", use its effect to Special Summon a Level 2 or lower monster from your Graveyard, then bounce "Junk Synchron" for this card to be able to use the effect of "Junk Synchron" again later.
- Summon "Deep Sea Diva" and search "Atlantean Heavy Infantry" then Normal Summon any Level 3 Sea Serpent-Type from your hand. Then bounce "Diva" back into your hand and Special Summon "Birdman" to Synchro Summon for "Red Dragon Archfiend". Then next turn Normal Summon "Diva" to Special Summon another to Synchro Summon for "Red Nova Dragon".
- If "Imperial Iron Wall" is face-up, two copies of this card can repeatedly return each other to the hand to Special Summon each other, allowing for a One Turn Kill if used in conjunction with "Spring of Rebirth" and "Fire Princess", or "Cyber Summon Blaster".
Traditional Format[edit]
- This card can be searched by "Last Will".
