"Archlord Kristya":

If you do not want to return a monster to your hand, you could use "The End of Anubis" to prevent this card from retrieving a monster and keep the number of Fairy monsters in the Graveyard at 4.

This card works well with "Honest", "Zeradias, Herald of Heaven", "Hanewata", "Hecatrice" and other Fairy monsters that can be discarded for an effect, to maintain the Special Summon requirements.

If you fill up your Graveyard with DARK Fairy-type Monsters like "Dark Valkyria" and "Darknight Parshath", you can Special Summon "Archlord Kristya" and return "Darknight Parshath" to your hand. Then on your next turn, you can Tribute Summon the "Darknight Parshath" you added to your hand by using "Archlord Kristya" as a Tribute, returning" Archlord Kristya" to the top of your deck. Now in this case, you can Special Summon a "Dark Armed Dragon" from your hand and, if "Darknight Parshath" is sent to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon "Archlord Kristya" when you draw it on the next turn.

Use "Archlord Kristya" to get "Hecatrice" back to your hand, then discard it to obtain a "Valhalla, Hall of the Fallen", which will allow you to maintain 4 Fairies in the graveyard.

Discard "Hecatrice" and "Zeradias, Herald of Heaven" to add "Valhalla, Hall of the Fallen" and "The Sanctuary in the Sky" to your hand, allowing to set up "Kristya"'s summon. This also gives you easy access to summoning him using "Valhalla" and stopping battle damage you would take involving a Fairy while "The Sanctuary in the Sky" is active on the field.

Using "Mask of Restrict" and "Zombie World" will stop any attempt to Tribute Summon a monster stronger than "Kristya" (although "Zombie World" can prevent "Kristya" from being Special Summoned and Tribute Summoned later if it is destroyed).

Use the effects of the "Heralds" to fill the Graveyard with Fairy-Type monsters for this card's Special Summon effect.

Combine the effects of a few Lavalval Chain and Daigusto Emeral To have a strong graveyard control for this card.

Because "Archlord Kristya's" effect that returns it to the top of the deck is compulsory, it can then become a bad draw, especially if your opponent wiped out your monsters with "Lightning Vortex" or "Torrential Tribute". For this reason, it may be wise to include cards like "Valhalla, Hall of the Fallen" or "Trade-In" so that it does not become a dead draw when this happens. Another option is "Tethys, Goddess of Light" if "Kristya" is returned to the top of the deck when you draw in the next turn you draw "Kristya" and another card.

While this card is on the field, you can use "Phantom of Chaos" to copy the effect of "Sky Scourge Norleras", clear the field, and draw this card. If you have the correct amount of Fairies in the grave, you can then Summon this card for a direct attack AND return a Fairy to your hand.

Using "Book of Moon" and "Book of Eclipse" will allow you to manipulate the effect that prevents a player from Special Summoning.

Use this monster together with "Silent Swordsman LV7", "The End of Anubis" and "Fog King" to ensure a ruthless lock.

Use this Card in an Arcana Force Deck, Arcana are all Fairy monsters so summon this card is easily, also in Combo with Tour of Doom and Second Coin Toss will make a Lock combo that will not let your opponent summon any monster, and only to Set monsters.

For additional speed in a deck that runs 2 copies of "Kristya", try using "Advance Draw" to draw "Kristya" and 1 more card.
- "Trade-In" also works well with this card, as it is level 8, and can add a Fairy-Type monster to the Graveyard to help meet the Special Summoning requirement.

In a Vylon deck, this card can create outstanding monster lockdown along with "Vylon Omega". You can summon this card with its built-in effect (assuming you have enough Fairy-Type monsters) or you can Tribute Summon this card by using "Vylon Element" to gather Tuners for Tributes.
- Make sure you Synchro Summon "Vylon Omega" first, otherwise you cannot Summon Omega due to this card's restriction.

A very simple way to remove this card from your opponents side of the field is to use "D.D. Warrior Lady", "Dimensional Prison", "Dark Core", etc.
