• Since Continuous Trap Cards are Spell Speed 2, you can first activate another Spell Speed 2 effect and then send it to the Graveyard with "Scrubbed Raid's" effect to end the Battle Phase. For example, activate "Ceasefire", "Just Desserts", "Magical Explosion", "Secret Barrel", etc. to inflict Burn Damage to your opponent then chain it with "Scrubbed Raid's" effect so you can send the burn card to the Graveyard to end the Battle Phase.

• This is also useful in Stall Decks or Exodia Decks as it can be a great defence.
  • Using "Imperial Custom" will protect this card and other stall cards like "Wall of Revealing Light" and "Gravity Bind".

• Include this card in a Crystal Beast Deck, because if your Spell & Trap Card Zones become clogged, this card can help you clear 1 Zone per turn.

• Use this card in conjunction with cards such as "Sangan" or "Emissary of the Afterlife" to stop your opponent from attacking and gain their effect. This is especially useful in an Exodia Deck

• Use this card with "Black Ptera" to negate the -1 this card generates for every use.

• Use this card with "Kuraz the Light Monarch" and "The Creator". Using this card, sacrifice the Monarch. Then later, revive him, destroying up to two cards on the field.

• Use this card with "The Immortal Bushi" for a continuous blocking.

• Use it in a Blackwings deck send "Blackwing - Vayu the Emblem of Honor" to the Graveyard or Blackwings that can be later summoned by "Blackwing - Blizzard the Far North".

• Attack directly with "Earthbound Immortal Aslla piscu", then use this effect to end the battle phase by removing the monster from the field. Your opponent's monsters will be destroyed and they will lose a large portion, or possibly all, of their remaining life points.

• When activating this, you can send any card on your field. Even one destined for the grave anyway. On your opponent's turn, during their Battle Phase, you can use a trap or spell and chain this card to it. Send the activated spell or trap. You will get both effects and this effect for relatively free. You can also do this with monsters, say a monster is attacked by "Ally of Justice Catastor", usually it will be killed by it's effect. With this card, you can send that monster to the graveyard and protect any other monsters from being destroyed.

• You can use this card to evade "Sakuretsu Armor" and "Dimensional Prison" and the alike cards which specifies "The attacking monster". As the battle phase has ended when the effect of this card resolves, no monsters are attacking thus the above cards cannot proceed with their effect.

• Use this card with "Savage Colosseum" and "Light of Intervention". If your opponent tries to attack, end their Battle Phase and destroy all monsters they control. You can also use Carrierroid to protect your Spell and Trap Cards. Use the Gadgets and "Scrap Recycler" to endlessly fuel "Scrubbed Raid".

• You can use this card to send "Good Goblin Housekeeping" to the Graveyard to be able to draw 1 additional card with its effect due to there being a "Good Goblin Housekeeping" in the graveyard when its effect resolves.

• You can use this card to send "Limiter Overload" to the Graveyard to end the battle phase and special summon a "Speed Warrior". This combo would work well in a Yusei Fudo-based deck.

• Probably one of the best cards to use with Scrubbed Raid may be "Scapegoat", because you can use "Scapegoat's" effect to special Summon 4 Sheep Tokens, chaining Scrubbed Raid to it, and send it to the Graveyard. You will also have 4 tokens.
  • The same can be said for Dandylion, which summons tokens when it is sent to the graveyard.
    • However, take note that since Tokens are not considered 'cards', and do not function like cards (I.e. do not get sent to the graveyard upon destruction, cannot be flipped face down, etc.) You cannot send any token as the cost for Scrubbed Raid.

• Another monster that works well with this card is "Level Eater". You can use this card with "Drill Warrior" to continuously bring back "Level Eater" to tribute it for "Scrubbed Raid". With "Drill Warrior" effect you can remove it from play, and when it comes back it would be untouched. Plus, you get to bring another monster from your grave to your hand.

• Sending an equipped "Dragunity Aklys" to the graveyard also gives you an opportunity to destroy one card on the field, along with stopping your opponent's attacks.

• Combo this card with "Destiny Hero - Plasma", "Relinquished", or "The Atmosphere" to create a perfect defense by sending the equipped monster to the graveyard. You can also clear your opponent field using this card's effect during Battle Phase of your turn after attacking, then absorb again the other opponent monster.
