* Use "[[Appropriate]]" to draw 2 extra cards during each of your opponent's turns. This can be especially useful for "[[Exodia]]" Decks.

* This card can be [[Searcher|searched]] by "[[Elemental HERO Stratos]]", "[[Elemental HERO Shadow Mist]]", "[[Xtra HERO Cross Crusader]]", "[[Evil Mind]]", "[[Masked HERO Dian]]", "[[D - Tactics]]", "[[Over Destiny]]", "[[D-Time]]", "[[Destiny Signal]]", "[[Phantom Magician]]", "[[Reinforcement of the Army]]", <!--"[[Isolde, Two Tales of the Noble Knights]]", -->"[[Double Dai]]", "[[Wake Up Your Elemental HERO]]", "[[Infernoble Knight Captain Roland]]", "[[Iron Knight]]", "[[Exchange of Night and Day]]", "[[Gaia, the Mid-Knight Sun]]", "[[Arcana Extra Joker]]", "[[Field-Commander Rahz]]", "[[Freed the Matchless General]]", "[[Red Sparrow Summoner]]", "[[Dragodies, the Empowered Warrior]]", "[[Creeping Darkness]]", "[[Dark General Freed]]", "[[Mystic Potato]]", "[[Mystic Tomato]]", "[[Ahrima, the Wicked Warden]]", "[[Chaos Zone]]", "[[Summoner Monk]]", "[[Primathmech Alembertian]]", "[[Battle Royal Mode - Joining]]", "[[Vampire Dragon]]", "[[Resonator Engine]]", "[[Soul Rope]]", "[[Rescue Ferret]]", "[[Umbramirage the Elemental Lord]]", "[[Sangan]]", and other [[List of generic searchers#Monsters|generic searchers]].
  
* Use "[[Helpoemer]]" to get rid of some of the cards your opponent draws through this card.
 
  
* Use "[[Protector of the Sanctuary]]" or "[[Skill Drain]]" to block this card's [[negative effect]].  
+
* Beneficial applications of this card's effect for the user include:
 +
** Enables the effect of "[[Droll & Lock Bird]]" to be activated, potentially before the opponent can use their more important searches that can only be done during their Main Phase.
 +
** Prevent the opponent from activating "[[Pot of Prosperity]]".
 +
** Enables the user's "[[Appropriate]]" to be activated, then its effect of drawing 2 extra cards can be applied during each of your opponent's turns. This can be especially useful for "[[Exodia]]" Decks.
 +
** "[[Silent Magician LV4]]" can double its [[ATK]] gain rate when used alongside this card.
  
* Although extra cards can help your opponent, if you have 2 or more of these [[face-up]] on the field in [[Defense Position]], your opponent can [[mill]] through their [[Deck]] rather quickly. This can be useful against a "[[Lightsworn]]" Deck.
+
* Use "[[Protector of the Sanctuary]]" or "[[Skill Drain]]" to block this card's [[negative effect]].
** Special Summon this card (through "[[Destiny HERO - Fear Monger]]" or any other revival cards) and then play "[[Inferno Reckless Summon]]", bringing three copies of this card onto the field. This will make your opponent draw a total of 4 cards each turn. This will allow you to mill through your opponent's deck in under 9 turns. You can further this process along with "[[Needle Worm]]" and "[[The Gift of Greed]]". To ensure your opponent can't use many cards against you, activate "[[Enervating Mist]]" and "[[Spatial Collapse]]", so that most of his surplus cards are sent to the Graveyard.
 
  
* You can use this card's negative effect to help your opponent [[Deck Out|Decking Out]].
+
* This card works well with cards that switch its ATK/DEF such as "[[Magnum Shield]]", "[[Ojama Country]]", "[[Weapon Change]]", "[[Shield and Sword]]" and "[[Inverse Universe]]", turning this card into a formiddable beatstick. This card will then be also usable with both "[[Eradicator Epidemic Virus]]" and "[[Deck Devastation Virus]]". Also, being in [[Attack Position]], the opponent will not get any free draws.
** It also can help making your opponent discard [[Hand size limit|by having more than 6 cards]] in the [[hand]].
 
** It can also be good against [[Infernity]] Decks, forcing your opponent to draw 2 cards during their turn and disable Infernity effects.
 
 
 
* Summon three of these and activate "[[Greed]]". Your opponent loses 1500 Life Points per turn and his/her deck gets thinning. Then tribute them for "[[Destiny HERO - Dogma]]" and cut his/her life points in half. Alternatively, Summon "Dogma" before summoning three "Defenders", to drain your opponent of lifepoints in only 3 turns (or less, if "Dogma" can attack directly).
 
 
 
* "[[Robbin' Goblin]]" works well with this card. If you also use "[[Staunch Defender]]", "[[Battle Mania]]", etc. you can take advantage of your defender's effect, making your opponent discard cards quickly and deal damage.
 
 
 
* A possible OTK with this card would be a Defense position Defender, "[[All-Out Attacks]]" and "[[Ojama Trio]]".
 
 
 
* This card works well with "[[Weapon Change]]", "[[Shield and Sword]]" and "[[Inverse Universe]]".
 
 
 
* A rather complicated combo involves a [[Gemini Summon|Gemini summoned]] "[[Shadow Delver]]", "[[Weapon Change]]"/"[[Shield & Sword]]", and this card. Switch Defender to Attack position. Use "Weapon Change"/"Shield & Sword" to make its ATK 2700, then use "Shadow Delver's" effect to let this card attack directly.
 
 
 
* "[[Silent Magician LV4]]" can double its [[ATK]] gain rate when used alongside this card.
 
 
 
* This card can be a very powerful beatstick in an "Ojama" [[Beatdown]] Deck, as under "[[Ojama Country]]" it will have 2700 ATK. Also, being in [[Attack Position]], the opponent will not get any free draws.
 
 
 
* "[[Weapon Change]]" makes him usable with both "[[Eradicator Epidemic Virus]]" and "[[Deck Devastation Virus]]", making it a useful control card.
 
 
 
* This card can be Special Summoned by "[[Debris Dragon]]" to easily summon a Rank 4 Xyz Monster.
 
 
 
* Combo this card with "[[D2 Shield]]", "[[Inverse Universe]]" and "[[Shadow Delver]]" to get a 5400 direct attacker. Don't forget that the first 2 cards will have a permanent effect on your Defender.
 
 
 
* Play "[[Greed]]", "[[Magical Thorn]]", "[[Enervating Mist]]" and "[[Anti-Spell Fragrance]]" to slow your opponent down as well as do damage from forcing them to draw plus more damage when they have to discard from too large a hand.
 
 
 
* Since Trap Cards are more vulnerable to destruction you can always use "[[Stronghold Guardian]]" instead of "[[D2 Shield]]". Plus, it's a Warrior like "[[Destiny HERO - Defender]]" and you can search for it with "[[Reinforcement of the Army]]". Also, you can save more monsters with this card because "[[D2 Shield]]" doesn't give a flat amount to help the weaker monsters too.
 
 
 
* This card is a great Tribute for "[[Destiny HERO - Dogma]]" because of its high [[DEF]].
 
 
 
* You can equip this card with "[[Magnum Shield]]" to turn it into a 2800-ATK monster, giving you a mighty offense while sidestepping its effect.
