- Using Celestial Transformation on an Athena and activating Inferno Reckless Summon while you control any other Fairy monster results in an OTK.
- While this card is on the field, continuously attack your opponent's 1500 ATK or higher monsters with Shining Angel and Nova Summoner. After you've cycled through all 6 of these cards in your deck, activate Athena`s effect to offer the Light Fairy monster to special summon a Shining Angel or a Nova Summoner in your graveyard. You deal 4800 damage with Athena`s effect through this combo.
- Using the above combo with The Sanctuary in the Sky, you take 0 damage from the battles, as well as may summon Airknight Parshath with Nova Summoner. After that, you could tribute Airknight Parshath to summon Neo-Parshath, the Sky Paladin with a lot of ATK.
- If you use the first and second combo together you will deal 14400 damage. 4800 per each Athena on the field.
- This card can be Tribute Summoned with one Tribute, using either "Kaiser Sea Horse", or "Gellenduo", or Special Summoned by using "Tribute Doll" or "Valhalla, Hall of the Fallen" .
- Use this card in conjunction with Honest with its return to hand effect, and Ultimate Offering to continually summon it, dealing 600 damage, to create an OTK. See Athena OTK for tips on this OTK.
- You can send a Radiant Jeral from your side of the field to summon another Radiant Jeral in your graveyard with athena's effect while The Sanctuary in the Sky is on the field to increase your lifepoint by 1000 points each turn, and fullfill the requeriments of Fairy-type monster like The Agent of Force - Mars, The Agent of Judgment - Saturn, Ancient Sacred Wyvern, or Neo-Parshath, the Sky Paladin. They all need that you have higher life points that your opponent.
- Using "Valhalla, Hall of the Fallen" to summon "Athena]" could be done after summoning other monsters with Valhalla, Hall of the Fallen. If you summon a "Guardian Angel Joan", you have a 2800 beatstick as well as an easy way to gain "Life Points". If Joan is destroyed, Athena can be summoned and bring back Joan from the graveyard. You also have gotten rid of whatever resources your opponent had that destroyed Joan (and may have destroyed Athena if you summoned it first). If you gain Life points using Joan's effect, it is easier to use the effect of "The Agent of Force - Mars" or related cards.

Your opponent takes 1200 to 1800 damage depending on the position of the monster they summoned. You can potentially use this method to swarm the field with fairy monsters. Just watch out for the Man-eater Bugs and Cyber Jars your opponent may bring back. You can limit their options with a Soul Release, however.
- You can further improve on this combo by adding a Card of Safe Return (Traditional format only). This allows you to draw 2 extra cards per turn.
- Use the above combo with one Spear Cretin in the graveyard and one face down on the field. On your turn, flip the Spear Cretin face up and tribute it via Athena's effect to summon a fairy in your graveyard, then use Spear Cretin's effect to bring back the other Spear Cretin.

- Darklord Asmodeus and Darklord Superbia have a lot of synergy with this card. Asmodeus can dump any fairy-type monster from your deck into the graveyard to be brought back with Athena's effect.
