• You can Xyz Summon this card with the effect of "Rescue Rabbit" by banishing itself to search for two Level 3 Normal Monsters. Since it's banished, you can Special Summon it through this card and use its effect again next turn.
  • Another easy way to Summon this card is by containing 2 or more copies of "Tour Guide From the Underworld", or even by having 1 copy and using it to Summon another Level 3 Fiend-Type monster from your Deck.
    • "Feedback Warrior" can help in Summoning this card as well.

• This card works well against DARK Decks, as you can Summon monsters your opponent banished via cards such as "Dark Armed Dragon".

• This card can work well in a "Six Samurai" Deck. You can easily Summon this card by Normal Summoning "Kageki" and using its effect to Summon another Level 3 monster, or you can Special Summon "Mizuho"/"Shinai"/"Elder" via their own effect. You can use its effect to Summon monsters banished via "Monster Slots" (because most of the "Six Samurais" are Level 3 and 4), "Enishi, Shien's Chancellor", "Legendary Six Samurai - Enishi", "Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning" (if you use some LIGHT and DARK "Six Samurais") or even "Naturia Barkion" ("Kagemusha" + "Kizan" or "Squire" + "Grandmaster").

• This card works well against Decks based on "Macro Cosmos".
  • Or use "Macro Cosmos" to your advantage and Special Summon the Xyz Material you just banished.

• Keep in mind that this card can Special Summon from either player's Banished Zones.

• In your own Macros Deck, use the following strategy to Summon "Gren Maju Da Eiza": Use "Tour Guide From the Underworld" to Special Summon "Da Eiza", and use both to Summon this card. Use this card's effect, detaching "Da Eiza" to Summon a monster, which banishes "Da Eiza". Then, on the next turn, detach "Tour Guide" to use the effect again and Summon "Da Eiza". (It is also possible to summon directly "Da Eiza" by detaching it for the cost, and then targeting it for the effect of "Leviair")

• You can use "Skull Lair" to banish your own monsters for this card's effect.

• "Bottomless Trap Hole", "Dimensional Prison" and "D.D. Warrior Lady" can load your opponent's Banished Zone to be used by this card late-game.

• If you have a non-Xyz Monster, recover Tuners like "Plaguespreader Zombie" and "Genex Ally Birdman", and use them for a Synchro Summon.

• Use this card in a RFG Psychic Deck. Summon 2 Level 3 monsters with "Overdrive Teleporter", and Xyz Summon this card. Remove an Xyz Material to bring back either "Esper Girl" or "Mental Seeker" to use their effects.

• In a Deck running the Plant Synchro engine, Summon "Leviair", then banish "Lonefire Blossom" for the effect of "Spore". Use the effect of "Leviair" to Special Summon "Lonefire" to the field, then Tribute "Lonefire" to Summon a Plant-Type monster of your choice from your Deck.

• You can use this card in an "The Agent" Deck to Summon the monsters banished for the effect of "Master Hyperion" or "Cards from the Sky".
  • You can Summon "The Agent of Mystery - Earth" to search for "The Agent of Creation - Venus". On you next turn, Normal Summon "Venus" and use its effect to Summon 3 "Mystical Shine Balls" from your hand/Deck. Then, Special Summon "Genex Ally Birdman" by returning a "Mystical Shine Ball". You can then Xyz Summon this card and "Gachi Gachi Gantetsu" or "Shining Elf".
  • Use the "Mystical Shine Ball" you returned to your hand with "Herald of Orange Light" or Summon it directly back to the field with "Venus". Using the effect of "Leviair", retrieve one of your banished Tuners (possibly "Earth" due to the Summoning condition of "Hyperion") to Synchro Summon using the remaining "Mystical Shine Ball".

• Use this card with "Nordics" to bring back Tuner monsters banished for "Aesir" resurrection and Synchro Summon with them, allowing them to be reused to revive "Aesir".
  • Most of the "Nordic Beasts" often used are Level 3 Monster Cards that are easy to search and Summon so Xyz Summoning this card won't be too hard with "Nordics".

• In a Disaster Dragon Deck, use this card's effect to Special Summon a Dragon that was removed for "Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon". You can also Special Summon "Red-Eyes Wyvern" (after it uses it's effect) or "Totem Dragon".
  • However, since this card is NOT a Dragon-Type, whenever this card hits the Graveyard it will automatically render "Totem Dragon" useless.

• You can use this card's effect to reuse "Mezuki".

• This card's effect can be used to bring back "Stygian Street Patrol" so you can use its Summoning effect again when it's in the Graveyard.

• Use this card with "Destiny HERO - Doom Lord", "Future Visions", "Past Image", etc. "Doom Lord" is also a Level 3 monster.

• Use this card's effect to Summon "Blue-Blooded Oni", which can be banished via "Allure of Darkness" or other means. Then use the effect of "Blue-Blooded Oni" to Summon a Level 4 Zombie from your Graveyard, allowing the Summon of a Rank 4 monster.
  • If you Summoned "Leviair" using "Tour Guide from the Underworld", this can get you 2 Xyz Monsters off 1 card in hand.
• Combine this card's effect with "Gold Sarcophagus" or "Different Dimension Capsule" to bring the selected banished monster to the field rather waiting till your 2nd Standby phase to be in your hand.

• You can use the effect of this card when you use a "Dragon Ruler" monster. When you Special Summon the "Dragon Ruler" Dragon, you can Summon "Leviair" and then use its effect to bring banished monsters to the field.
