Card Tips:House Duston
- This card can be searched by "Dogu", "Single Purchase", "Temple of the Kings", "Broken Blocker", "Sangan", "Rescue Ferret", "Serpentine Princess", "Vampire Dragon", "Mimiclay", "Where Arf Thou?", "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing", "One for One", "Dragunity Corsesca", "Ties of the Brethren", "Painful Escape", "Rai-Mei", "Photon Veil", "Shining Angel", "Stygian Security", "Chaos Zone", "Lucent, Netherlord of Dark World", "Magicalized Duston Mop", "Duston Roller", "Diamond Duston", and another "House Duston".
- Use "Remove Brainwashing" or "Owner's Seal" to keep all the "Dustons" you Summon.
- The easiest way to use this card's effect would be to ram it into an opponent's low-ATK monster (perhaps by first reducing that monster's ATK).
- Use a card like "Darkworld Shackles" to reduce an opponent's monster's ATK to a reasonable amount. This also allows that monster to be easily destroyed later after you use this card.
- For optimal results, Summon (up to) 3 copies of "White Duston" and 2 copies of "House Duston" to your side of the field, while Summoning the other members of the "Duston" archetype with their negative effects to your opponent's side of the field.
- After doing this, create a powerful combo by using 4 of your "Dustons" to Xyz Summon "Number 13: Embodiment of Crime" and "Number 31: Embodiment of Punishment". These two cards can lock down your opponent and force all of the "Dustons" they control to attack them, thereby triggering their effects.
- You can reuse this card's effect by Special Summoning it via "Kinka-byo".
- "Goblin King" works well with this card's effect. Since all "Duston" monsters are Fiend-Type, "Goblin King" can potentially reach 8000 ATK.
- Use cards like "Ceasefire" and "Just Desserts" to burn your opponent for extremely large quantities of damage at once.
- As an alternative strategy, this card can be used as a Deck thinner, since it can thin your Deck by up to 10 cards at once, although you should be careful with the "Duston" monsters' negative effects.
Traditional Format
- This card can be searched by "Last Will" and "Witch of the Black Forest".
- If this card's effect is used successfully, "Kaiser Colosseum" can prevent the opponent from Summoning any further monsters.
