Card Tips:Hieratic Seal of the Heavenly Spheres

  • This card can be easily Link Summoned with only "Black Metal Dragon" on the field.
    • "Black Metal Dragon" should be used to Link Summon "Striker Dragon", so that the effect of the sent "Black Metal Dragon" can be used to add "Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon" from the Deck to the hand. Then, "Red-Eyes" should Special Summon itself by banishing "Striker Dragon", before using its own effect to Special Summon "Black Steel Dragon" from the Graveyard for this card's subsequent Link Summon.
      • From this point on, it is possible to use the effect of "Black Steel Dragon" again to add "Red-Eyes Fang with Chain" from the Deck to the hand, allowing that Trap to be Set to the field. During the opponent's next turn, this Link Monster's effect can be used to Tribute itself, thus triggering its other effect to Special Summon any appropriate "Red-Eyes" monster from the Deck, whose presence can enable the activation of "Red-Eyes Fang with Chain". Overall, this combo provides a total of 2 disruptive options: the effect of "Heavenly Spheres" and the effect of "Red-Eyes Fang with Chain".
        • Furthermore, the Effect-Monster-equipping effect of that Trap can help overcome the 0 ATK/DEF drawback of the effect of "Heavenly Spheres", since the Trap replaces the ATK/DEF of the equipped monster with those of the former-monster-turned-Equip-Card.
  • In a "Hieratic" Deck, this card can be useful for Tributing either a Level 4-6 "Hieratic" Effect Monster (and triggering that monster's effect to Special Summon a Dragon-Type Normal Monster) or a high-Level Dragon-Type Normal Monster in the hand that is useless.
  • Good disruptive options for this card's effect to Special Summon include the following:
    • "Fallen of Albaz", as its own effect allows it to immediately Fusion Summon a monster by using itself and monsters from either player's field.
    • "Grandtusk Dragon", as its effect can immediately target and destroy up to 2 other cards on the field.
    • "Dark Hole Dragon". While not exactly a disruptive option, its effect can activate to add "Dark Hole" from the Deck to the hand during the End Phase, in preparation for the next turn.
  • This card's effect can be used to Special Summon "Guardragon Andrake", triggering its effect and doubling its original ATK, which avoids the negative drawback of 0 ATK/DEF from this card's effect.
