* This is a good deck filler card, as it essentially replaces itself due to its effect.
+
* This card can be [[Searcher|searched]] by "[[Scrounging Goblin]]", "[[Trap Trick]]", "[[Trap Tracks]]", "[[Lady Labrynth of the Silver Castle]]", "[[Lilith, Lady of Lament]]", "[[Triple Tactics Thrust]]", "[[Angel of Blue Tears]]", "[[Farewelcome Labrynth]]", "[[Labrynth Set-Up]]", and other [[List of generic searchers#Traps|generic searchers]].

* This card combo's well with "[[Convulsion of Nature]]".
+
* Once activated, it is best to send this card to the Graveyard before it [[resolve]]s, so that it can count itself for an additional drawn card.
 +
** This can be accomplished via cards like "[[Emergency Provisions]]", "[[Scrubbed Raid]]", "[[Full House]]", etc.
 +
*** With cards capable of sending multiple cards to the Graveyard (like "Emergency Provisions" and "Full House"), this combo is more effective when used with multiple copies of this activated card in the same [[Chain]] - for a maximum yield of 12 drawn cards and 3 returned cards.  
  
−
* This card also works well with "[[Emergency Provisions]]". Players are able to set multiple "Housekeeping", then [[activate]] all of them, [[chain]] "Emergency Provisions" and send all of them to the Graveyard before their effects resolve, with the maximum result being 12 cards drawn and 3 cards returned to the Deck.
+
* An alternative way of capitalizing on this card's effect is by sending 1 or 2 copies of this card to the Graveyard first, since activating this card with no other copies in the Graveyard yields a net loss of 1 card (1 drawn card vs. the activated copy and the card returned to the Deck).
 +
** This can be done via generic discard costs, "[[Hand Destruction]]", "[[Magical Hats]]", random milling via "[[Lightsworn]]" monster effects, etc.
  
−
* This card works well in decks where you do not wish to draw a particular card if that card is a [[dead draw]]. For example, "[[Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes]]" is summoned by the effects of other cards and is useless in the hand. This could also be used in an "[[Forbidden One]]" Deck, since you don't want to draw cards other than Exodia parts, generally. Conversely, since they have no use in the hand, you can return the "Spirit Message" cards that work with "[[Destiny Board]]" back to the Deck as well.
+
* This card is best used in Decks that rely on having certain cards remaining in the Deck for use, which are otherwise useless or suboptimal in the [[hand]].
−
** Another use is in an "[[/Assault Mode]]" Deck by using it to make sure the "/Assault Mode" monster is on the bottom of the deck– both making it harder to draw and more summonable with "[[Assault Mode Activate]]".
+
** "[[/Assault Mode]]" Decks, for returning "/Assault Mode" monsters that can only be Special Summoned from the Deck via "[[Assault Mode Activate]]".
 +
** "[[Destiny Board]]" Decks, for returning "[[Spirit Message]]" cards.
 +
** "[[LV]]" Decks, for returning "LV" monsters.
 +
** "[[Metalmorph]]" Decks, for returning "[[Metalzoa]]" and "[[Red-Eyes Black Metal Dragon]]" that can only be Special Summoned from the Deck by using their own procedures.
 +
** "[[Monarch]]" Decks, for returning copies of "[[Eidos the Underworld Squire]]" that are more efficiently Special Summoned from the Deck via the effect of "[[Edea the Heavenly Squire]]".
 +
** [[Three Musketeers of Face Cards]] Decks, for making copies of "[[Jack's Knight]]" accessible for the effect of "[[King's Knight]]".
  
−
* In Decks with three copies of this card, you can discard the first copy of "Good Goblin Housekeeping" for the cost of a card effect, letting you draw two cards the next time you activate it, instead of just one.
+
* "[[Trap of Darkness]]" can combo well with this card, but only with more copies of this card in the Graveyard. Multiple copies of "Trap of Darkness" become less effective with this card, since this card is banished when that Trap Card resolves.
  
−
* Combo it with "[[Trap of Darkness]]" it's better when all 3 copies are already used up so that you can draw 3 new cards.
+
* "[[Thunder Dragon]]" can combo well with this card, even when no copies of this card are in the Graveyard yet. Assuming the effect of "Thunder Dragon" is used first to add 2 more copies to the hand, this card can return 1 of those copies to the Deck, whereupon the effect of the remaining "Thunder Dragon" in the hand can be used to retrieve that card.
 +
** This card also solves the potential dilemma of drawing 2 or 3 copies of "[[Thunder Dragon]]" before having the chance to use one copy's effect.
  
−
* You can activate this card and send it to the Graveyard with "[[Scrubbed Raid]]" when your opponent attacks to end the Battle Phase and draw an extra card with this card's effect.
+
* Once all 3 copies of this card have been used, "[[Mask of Darkness]]" can be used to retrieve a copy and abuse its effect, with other card effects like "[[Book of Moon]]" and "[[Wind-Up Zenmaister]]" keeping this combo going.
−
 
 
−
* You can send multiple copies of this card to the graveyard at once with "[[Hand Destruction]]" or "[[Magical Hats]]" to boost another copy's efficacy.
 
−
* You can also use this card to keep monsters you want to replicate with cards like "[[Broken Blocker]]" and "[[Inferno Reckless Summon]]" out of your hand.
 
−
 
 
−
* This card could be used well in a "[[Lightsworn]]" Deck; after [[Milling]] 1 or 2 copies the third will draw more cards while still only returning 1.
 
−
 
 
−
* Use this card in conjunction with "[[Full House]]" to ease Full House's targeting requirements while boosting this card's drawing power.
 
−
 
 
−
* Once you have all three copies of this card in play, use [[Mask of Darkness]] and cards such as [[Book of Moon]] or [[Wind-Up Zenmaister]] to constantly recycle its effect and significantly boost your hand advantage.
 
−
 
 
−
* This can be helpful with the "[[Poker Knight|Poker Knights]]," as it can keep "[[Jack's Knight]]" in the deck while getting "[[Queen's Knight]]" and "[[King's Knight]]" into your hand faster. This will maximize the Knight's swarming abilities, as well as preventing "Jack's Knight" from becoming a dead draw.
 
−
 
 
−
* This card can be very helpful in "[[Metalmorph]]" decks, in case you end up with "[[Metalzoa]]" and/or "[[Red-Eyes Black Metal Dragon]]" in your hand, as they can only be summoned from the deck. You can return them to the bottom of the deck, keeping them out of the way until needed, and draw extra cards to boot.

"Good Goblin Housekeeping":
  • Once activated, it is best to send this card to the Graveyard before it resolves, so that it can count itself for an additional drawn card.
    • This can be accomplished via cards like "Emergency Provisions", "Scrubbed Raid", "Full House", etc.
      • With cards capable of sending multiple cards to the Graveyard (like "Emergency Provisions" and "Full House"), this combo is more effective when used with multiple copies of this activated card in the same Chain - for a maximum yield of 12 drawn cards and 3 returned cards.
  • An alternative way of capitalizing on this card's effect is by sending 1 or 2 copies of this card to the Graveyard first, since activating this card with no other copies in the Graveyard yields a net loss of 1 card (1 drawn card vs. the activated copy and the card returned to the Deck).
  • "Trap of Darkness" can combo well with this card, but only with more copies of this card in the Graveyard. Multiple copies of "Trap of Darkness" become less effective with this card, since this card is banished when that Trap Card resolves.
  • "Thunder Dragon" can combo well with this card, even when no copies of this card are in the Graveyard yet. Assuming the effect of "Thunder Dragon" is used first to add 2 more copies to the hand, this card can return 1 of those copies to the Deck, whereupon the effect of the remaining "Thunder Dragon" in the hand can be used to retrieve that card.
    • This card also solves the potential dilemma of drawing 2 or 3 copies of "Thunder Dragon" before having the chance to use one copy's effect.
