Card Tips:Dark Strike Fighter
- Use high-level, easy-to-summon monsters for this card's effect. Metal Reflect Slime is the prime combination of high level and ease of summon.
- Use "Advanced Ritual Art" to Ritual Summon "Demise, King of Armageddon" by sending 2 "Mechanicalchaser", 2 "Blocker", or 1 of each, and clear the field with Demise's effect. Then Normal Summon "Black Salvo", use its effect to Special Summon one of the monsters sent by "Advanced Ritual Art" to Synchro Summon "Dark Strike Fighter" for an OTK.
- Another OTK with this card involves "Summoner Monk" and "Rescue Cat". Use "Summoner Monk's" effect to summon another one from your deck, and use that one's effect to summon a "Rescue Cat" from your deck. Then, Tribute the "Rescue Cat" and summon two "X-Saber Airbellums" from your deck. Tune the "Airbellums" with your "Summoner Monk", and summon 2 "Dark Strike Fighters". Attack directly with both of them, then tribute both to win (assuming your opponent hasn't gained any Life Points) 2600+2600=5200+(7*200+7*200=2800)=8000.
- By summoning "Black Salvo" and use its effect to get a level 4 DARK Machine monster you could synchro summon this card.
- This card fits in quite well with the "Quillbolt Loop" deck, by using it to Tribute "Quillbolt Hedgehog".
- This card can be very useful in a Yubel Synchro deck, for a quick way to summon, reborn a "Doom Shaman" and use his effect to Special Summon "Sinister Sprocket".
- If you control this card and "Yubel", use "DNA Surgery" and declare Machine to change Yubel into a machine-type monster, use "Machine Duplication" to summon 2 more "Yubels", then tribute them all and this card to inflict 7400 points of damage.
- If used in a Fish Synchro deck, this card can be used for an OTK if you also have "Superancient Deepsea King Coelacanth" on the field. Just attack with both of them directly and tribute both using "Dark Strike Fighter's" effect for OTK by life point deduction.
- Basically, this card can give any deck that has the ability to swarm the field with (preferably) high level monsters in one turn an OTK.
- Use "DNA Surgery" and declare Plant to use "Copy Plant's" effect for heavy effect damage.
- Special summon one "Copy Plant" and then "Inferno Reckless Summon" for another two to deal 1400 damage apiece.
- Use this card in combination with "Black Ptera" and "Ultimate Offering" for an OTK.
- This card works well in a destiny hero deck, use this effect to tribute "Destiny End Dragoon" which you can special summon in your next standby standby phase to go again.
