Card Tips:Luminous Dragon Ritual
- This card can be searched by "Pre-Preparation of Rites", "Impcantation Candoll", "Sonic Bird", "Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands", "Herald of the Arc Light", "Spiritual Whisper", "Choju of the Trillion Hands", "Odd-Eyes Pendulumgraph Dragon", "Black Luster Soldier - Legendary Swordsman", "Shinobaron Shade Peacock", "Drytron Zeta Aldhibah", "Prediction Princess Bibliomuse", "Prediction Princess Arrowsylph", "Beginning Knight", "Blue-Eyes Abyss Dragon", "Gateway to Chaos", "Cyber Angel Idaten", "Ritual Sanctuary", "Shinobird Power Spot", "Revendread Slayer", and other generic searchers.
- If you have 2 copies of "Paladin of Photon Dragon" in your hand, you can summon one of the two monsters mentioned above, search out this card, then use them to summon both. This also works if you have a copy of this card, 1 Paladin, and "Senju of the Thousand Hands" (or "Preparation of Rites" and any other Level 4 monster) in your hand, since it can search the second Paladin.
- Equally usefully, use the effect of "Lavalval Chain" to send this card directly from your Deck to your Graveyard. Then you can banish this card and the Level 4 monster detached from "Chain" to Ritual Summon "Paladin of Photon Dragon".
- You can discard this card with Summoner Monk to Special Summon 1 level 4 Monster from your Deck, then Xyz Summon Lavalval Chain and use its second effect to place Paladin of Photon Dragon on top of your deck, this way you will be able to summon it next turn using this card in the Graveyard and the material detached from Lavalval Chain.
- Armageddon Knight is an amazing level 4 to get with this. You can dump a shaddoll for all sorts of effects or even make Ragnazero to get its effect by dumping Archfiend of Gilfer. It can even help with a Djinn lock if you have a level 1 like Galaxy-Eyes Cloudragon in the graveyard
