• This card can be Tribute Summoned with one Tribute using "Double Coston".

• If you Summoned this card without Tribute, and then "Skill Drain" is later activated, the ATK and DEF are no longer halved. If "Skill Drain" is later destroyed, the ATK and DEF still remain at 2800 and 2000.

• If this card was summoned without Tribute, you can use Forbidden Chalice to make its ATK 3200. After the effect of Forbidden Chalice resolves, the ATK and DEF of this card goes back to 2800 and 2000.

• This card also works well with "Metamorphosis" due to its high level.

• This card works well in a Synchro/Tuner Deck.

• Due to its high level, this card can be used to deal moderate damage using "Dark Strike Fighter"'s effect.

• This card works well with "The Calculator".

• If this monster is Set, its ATK and DEF are not halved while face-down, making it an ideal Tribute for "Deck Devastation Virus" or "Eradicator Epidemic Virus".

• Use with "Ectoplasmer" and inflict 1400 damage.

• Using "Miniaturize" or "Shooting Star Bow - Ceal" on this card will allow you to use "Machine Duplication" to get two more without halved attack. He may also be Tributed for "Crush Card Virus" with this combo.

• You can use "Alchemy Cycle", "Machine Duplication" and "Limiter Removal" to dish out a ton of damage with your 2 new "Fusilier Dragon, the Dual Mode Beast".
  • The above combo is likely to generate an OTK

• Get 2 Tributes for this card by Special Summoning "The Tricky", and discarding "Plaguespreader Zombie" to revive it, as if you were trying to bring a Level 7 Synchro

• This card may be Special Summoned with no Tributes or penalties right from your Deck with "Reasoning" or "Monster Gate". "Beast King Barbaros" also works well in this combo.
  • The above combo is strong in an Aggro Deck, together with "Ancient Gear Gadjiltron Dragon".

• Summon using it's effect and with "Machina Armored Unit" to bring out "Jinzo", because "Machina Armored Unit"'s effect activates in the graveyard.

• After Summoning this monster with no Tribute, use "Interdimensional Matter Transporter" to remove it from play and get it back later, thus reseting its effect. This way, your opponent should contend with that colossal monster.

• This card, along with "Beast King Barbaros" works well in a Fortune Lady deck, because of the effect of "Future Visions".

• Equip it with "Axe of Fools" after Normal Summoning it without Tributes to have a 3800 ATK Beatstick.
