Card Tips:Ancient Dragon
- This card can be searched via "Dragonic Guard", "Draconnection", "Photon Veil", "Masked Dragon", "Summoner Monk", "Soul Rope", "Resonator Engine", "Shining Angel", and "Sangan".
- Special Summon "Cyber Dragon" by its effect and Normal Summon this card. Run over the opponent's monster with CyDra and let this attack directly, boosting its Level by 1 and allowing you to Overlay for "Constellar Pleiades".
- This approach works just as well with other easy-to-summon Level 5 monsters like Darkflare Dragon or Ghost Ship to overlay for a strong Rank 5 Xyz monster like Tiras, Keeper of Genesis.
- This card easily serves for "A Wingbeat of Giant Dragon".
- "Magna Drago" and this card can work well together. They're both dragons, both gain ATK when inflicting damage, and can tune for any synchro monster of level 6 and up.
- Use this card in conjunction with cards like Different Dimension Gate, Junk Archer, Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon or Dark End Dragon to create openings for its direct attack.
- Set Masked Dragon and Dimension Slide face-down. When your opponent destroys Masked Dragon, use its effect to summon Ancient Dragon and chain Dimension Slide to remove the attacker. In most situations your opponent will be left wide open for a direct attack.
Traditional Format
- This card can be searched via "Witch of the Black Forest" and "Last Will".
