* This card can be searched by "[[Chaos Zone]]".
+
* This card can be [[Searcher|searched]] by "[[Dark Summoning Beast]]", "[[Phantasmal Summoning Beast]]", "[[Dark Beckoning Beast]]", "[[Opening of the Spirit Gates]]", "[[Fusion Conscription]]", "[[Fusion Reserve]]", "[[Thunder Dragon Fusion]]", "[[Thunder Dragonduo]]", "[[Chaos Zone]]", and other [[List of generic searchers#Monsters|generic searchers]].
 +
** "Opening of the Spirit Gates" is especially useful for this card, since it is a Continuous Spell that can be used for this card's Summon.
  
* Use the [[Crystal Beast]]s as [[Tribute]]s for "[[Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder]]", since they can become [[Continuous Spell Cards]] when [[destroy]]ed. This is also a great backup or substitute for "[[Rainbow Dragon]]", as it only requires any three Crystal Beasts in the [[Spell & Trap Card Zone]] (as opposed to the requirement of 7 different Crystal Beasts for "[[Rainbow Dragon]]"). The downside, of course, is that the Crystal Beasts are destroyed in the process of summoning "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder".

==Summoning tips==
**In the [[Crystal Beast]]s deck, it is great to use "[[Crystal Beast Emerald Tortoise]]" and "[[Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat]]" with it. You are able to either have a hit and run strategy with "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder" using the effect of "Crystal Beast Emerald Tortoise" or a permanent 'pinger' with "Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat".
+
* This card can be easily and efficiently Summoned in the following Decks:
 +
** "[[Crystal Beast]]": Their monsters' effects can have them become Continuous Spells if destroyed while in the Monster Zone, while their other cards have effects that can directly place "Crystal Beast" monsters in the Spell & Trap Zone as Continuous Spells.
 +
** "[[The Weather]]": Their cards' effects can easily accumulate multiple "The Weather" Continuous Spell Cards.
 +
*** The effect of "[[The Weather Painter Cloud]]" can make this card's Summon more efficient, as that monster's effect can recover up to 2 "The Weather" Spells/Traps from the Graveyard if "Hamon" used a "The Weather" Continuous Spell Card for its Summon.
 +
** "[[Witchcrafter]]": "[[Witchcrafter Bystreet]]" and "[[Witchcrafter Scroll]]" are Continuous Spells that can easily recover themselves from the Graveyard for free throughout a Duel.
  
* If "[[Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder]]" is destroyed and sent to the [[Graveyard]], it's a good idea to use "[[Monster Reincarnation]]" to bring "[[Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder|Hamon]]" back to your [[hand]] to [[Special Summon]] "[[Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder|Hamon]]" to the field in the same turn, or later on.
+
* Continuous Spells such as "[[Messenger of Peace]]", "[[Level Limit - Area B]]", "[[Burden of the Mighty]]", and "[[Quiet Life]]" can be useful for stalling the opponent, until this card can be Special Summoned by using those cards for its Summon.
 +
** Although it's a monster, "[[Pumprincess the Princess of Ghosts]]" can treat itself as a Continuous Spell when destroyed in the Monster Zone, and can serve the same purpose of stalling and being used for the Summon of "Hamon".
  
* Use "[[Destiny Board]]" to get the "[[Spirit Message]]" cards out from your [[hand]] or [[Deck]]. By the time "[[Spirit Message "A"]]" is activated, you will have the 3 [[Continuous Spell Cards]] you will need as [[Tribute]]s. However this may seem pointless as you are one spell off an instant win.
+
* "[[Cerulean Skyfire]]" can not only be helpful for enabling this card's Special Summon (as that Spell's effect allows this card to also use face-down Spells for its Summon), but also for providing some defensive capabilities.
  
* Use [[Continuous Spell Cards]] like "[[Messenger of Peace]]", "[[Level Limit - Area B]]" to stall your opponent, and then [[Tribute]] them for "[[Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder|Hamon]]".
+
* "[[Contract with Don Thousand]]" can be a useful Continuous Spell for this card's Summon, as its effect has both players draw 1 card, effectively replacing itself.
  
* If for nothing else, this card can prove to be a quick Tribute fodder, especially for ATK-based cards like "[[Great Maju Garzett]]", as "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder" can theoretically be summoned in one turn without taking up your Normal Summon. In the aforementioned example, you would also have a 8000 ATK monster, which may form an OTK.
+
==General tips==
 +
* "[[Dragon Queen of Tragic Endings]]" can potentially be used in the same Deck as this card, since its Summoning condition requires controlling 3 face-up Continuous Spells (without sending any of them to the Graveyard).
  
* By having this card in [[Defense Position]] and a [[face-up]] "[[Batteryman D]]" on your side of the field, your opponent cannot attack your monsters as "[[Batteryman D]]" prevents attacks on all your [[Thunder]]-[[Type]] monsters except himself while "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder" is the only monster your opponent can attack while in [[Defense Position]]. Since "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder" is a Thunder-Type monster, "[[Batteryman D]]" protects all other Thunder-Type monsters and "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder" protects all other monsters, a [[lock]]down on any opposing attacks targeting your monsters will form.
+
* "[[Eldlich the Golden Lord]]" is a good monster to use in the same Deck as this card, since it is a Level 10 monster that can Special Summon itself by using the same Continuous Spells that this card uses, and can also potentially be used for an Rank 10 Xyz Summon with this card.
  
* You can run multiple copies of "[[Burden of the Mighty]]" to severely weaken your opponent's monsters until you can draw "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder" and summon it.
+
* As a Level 10 monster with an effect that inflicts 1000 damage each time it destroys an opponent's monster by battle, this card can pair well with "[[Mound of the Bound Creator]]", which protects this card from being targeted or destroyed by card effects, as well as inflicting an extra 1000 damage each time "Hamon" destroys an opponent's monster by battle.
  
* This card has the highest original ATK of any Thunder-Type monster, so this card is a prime target for "[[Makiu, the Magical Mist]]" to basically destroy all average-ATK monsters your opponent controls.
+
* As a monster with an effect that prevents other monsters from being attacked, this card can form an attack [[lock]] with monsters such as "[[Batteryman D]]" or "[[Morphtronic Magnen]]".
  
* The "[[Convulsion of Nature]]" and "[[Archfiend's Oath]]" combo can help draw "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder" faster, and also provides two of his three [[Tribute]]s, since they are [[Continuous Spell Card]]s. Additionally, if they are destroyed, you can use "[[Recycle]]" to retrieve them, as well as any other lost Continuous Spells. "[[Card Shuffle]]" can also help if you know that you are about to draw a bad card when your deck is flipped upside down due to "[[Convulsion of Nature]]". "[[Recycle]]" and "[[Card Shuffle]]" are also Continuous Spells, which aid in summoning "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder".
+
* Since this card has the highest original ATK among [[Thunder]]-Type monsters, cards like "[[Makiu, the Magical Mist]]" and "[[Wattcine]]" can be used to their maximum potential with this card.
 
 
* While "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder" is in Defence Position, equip "[[Mist Body]]" in order to create an almost lock in which the opponent can only attack "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder" and he cannot be destroyed in battle thanks to "[[Mist Body]]"
 
 
 
* Add a "[[Morphtronic Magnen]]" to the field in Defense Position alongside "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder", and your opponent can't attack any monster at all.
 
 
 
* This card (in Defense Mode) is also good as a '[[stall]]er' in order to protect [[Fiend]]-Type monsters for a tribute to summon "[[Raviel, Lord of Phantasms]]".
 
 
 
* It is also possible to achieve an OTK when "[[Rainbow Dragon]]" and this card are on the field.
 
 
 
* Use this card in combination with "[[Makiu, the Magical Mist]]" to destroy almost all monsters your opponent controls, since "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder" has 4000 ATK.
 
 
 
* You can use this card with "[[Wattcine]]" to gain 4000 Life Points after this card attacks directly.
 
 
 
* Like the Crystal Beasts, "[[Pumprincess the Princess of Ghosts]]" can be treated as a Continuous Spell Card that can be used for the Summon of this card.
