** Use "[[Rain of Mercy]]" before activating that Trap. Be careful to decide whether you want to activate this card before or after Summoning "Ra". Activating it before would give "Ra" and extra 1000 ATK, but on the other hand activating it after Summoning would allow you to use the destruction effect of "Ra" once more. Either way your opponent would have 1000 more life points while you are left with 100 total, thereby increasing your chances of meeting the requirements of "Life Equalizer".

This can be repeated infinitely, effectively giving you access to an astronomically high number of Life Points. Adding "[[Spell Absorption]]" to this cycle will add an extra 500 points for each time you do this, boosting your Life Points even higher. By using "[[Inferno Reckless Summon]]" to get 3 "Flint Lock" monsters on and doing the loop, you can then Tribute them to Summon "Ra" after gaining enough LPs for an OTK.
 
 
 
* The [[The Winged Dragon of Ra|legal]] "Ra" cannot be Special Summoned, but you can use "[[Monster Reincarnation]]", "[[A Feather of the Phoenix]]", "[[Herald of Creation]]", "[[Pot of Avarice]]", "[[Localized Tornado]]" or other such cards to return it to your hand or Deck if it gets discarded or destroyed.
 
** You can quickly send this card to the Graveyard with "[[Foolish Burial]]" and retrieve it later.
 
 
 
* You can use "[[Trap Monster]]s" protected with "[[Imperial Custom]]" to gain Tributes for this card.

* "[[Dark World]]s", "[[X-Saber]]s", "[[Lightsworn]]s", "[[The Six Samurai]]", "[[Psychic]]s" and "[[Blackwing]]s" can work well with this card as they can swarm the [[field]] and be used for Tributes.

* "[[Supremacy Berry]]" can be very useful after Summoning this card as it often gives you the power to kill 2 monsters and maybe [[direct attack]] for massive damage.
 
 
 
* "[[Draining Shield]]" allows you to build up Life Points for either of this card's effects.
 
 
 
* "[[Enchanted Javelin]]" lets you gain back Life Points you paid for its second effect almost immediately after you summon.
 
 
 
* You can use "[[Nightmare Archfiends]]" with "[[Owner's Seal]]" Special Summon 3 monsters to Tribute for this card, which can also work for "[[Obelisk the Tormentor]]" and "[[Slifer The Sky Dragon]]".
 
 
 
* 2 copies of "[[Life Absorbing Machine]]" can give you back the Life Points you paid for the effects of "The Winged Dragon of Ra".
 
** Using 3 copies will increase your Life Points even more.
 
 
 
* Instead of activating this card's effect to gain ATK, equip it with "[[Heart of Clear Water]]" to protect it as you use its monster destruction effect.
 
** Using "[[Spirit Barrier]]", you can avoid taking damage from your opponent's monsters.
 
 
 
* Have "[[Dark Bribe]]" on the field to protect this card from effects that can destroy it.
 
 
 
* Use "[[Ancient Fairy Dragon]]" to gain Life Points to use for this card's destruction effect, or even Special Summon monsters to help Tribute Summon it.
 
 
 
* If both you and your opponent have around the same amount of Life Points before you activate the ATK and DEF increasing effect of "The Winged Dragon of Ra", activate another card effect that increases the ATK of "Ra" and attempt to attack for game.
 
 
 
* With "[[Healing Wave Generator]]" on the field with this card you can ''generate'' just enough Life Points to use this card's destruction effect.
 
 
 
* In a "Psychic" Deck you can use "[[Telekinetic Power Well]]" in order to Summon 3 Level 2 or lower Psychic-Type monsters to fulfill this monsters Summoning requirements.
 
 
 
* "[[Dian Keto the Cure Master]]" gives you enough Life Points for this card's destruction effect.
 
 
 
* Use "[[DNA Surgery]]" to transform this card into a Psychic-Type monster, then equip this card with "[[Telekinetic Charging Cell]]", allowing you to use its second effect for free.
 
** After destroying your opponent's monsters, you can activate "[[Giant Trunade]]" or "[[Full House]]" to eliminate their Spells and Traps as well, allowing you to deal a ridiculous amount of damage without fear.
 
** You can also use "[[Brain Research Lab]]", but comes with the risk of dealing damage when destroyed.
 
 
 
* Use "[[Prime Material Dragon]]" to both prevent your opponent from using [[burn]] to finish you off after you use this card's effect, and to protect it from card effects.
 
 
 
* Use "[[Soul Absorption]]" with "[[Banisher of the Radiance]]", "[[Banisher of the Light]]" or "[[Macro Cosmos]]" to gain Life Points whenever a card is sent to the Graveyard. Be careful, though; if your opponent manages to destroy this card, it will be removed from play.
 
 
 
* Use "[[Soul Exchange]]" to sacrifice your opponent's most powerful monster to help clear the field (at the same time you will only have to sacrifice 2 of your monsters). This can also be helpful to get rid of "[[Stardust Dragon]]" and other similar cards, which can easily get in the way of this card's second effect. [[The Monarchs Stormforth]] is superior, due to not targeting and letting you attack the same turn.
 
 
 
* Use "[[Power Frame]]" to make this card have the same ATK as a monster your opponent controls without the need to decrease your life points to be able to have enough ATK to stay alive and destroy monsters on the field.
 
 
 
* Use Stall cards like "[[Swords of Revealing Light]]", to buy you some time to Summon this card. You can search for this card with "[[Gold Sarcophagus]]" or "[[Different Dimension Capsule]]" before using "Revealing Light" therefore you will not need to worry about attacks from the opponent's monsters while you gather Tributes for this card. This also works for "Obelisk the Tormentor" and "Slifer the Sky Dragon".  
 
  
* This card works really well with "[[Number C39: Utopia Ray]]" and "[[Number C32: Shark Drake Veiss]]", since the effect of "The Winged Dragon of Ra" gets your Life Points low enough to use the effect of "Utopia Ray" or "Shark Drake Veiss" for more damage.
+
* Provided you can get an [[Xyz Monster]] fast on the field, "[[Corrupted Keys]]" can generate instant tribute fodder for this card.
  
* To regain life point's place "[[Sebek's Blessing]]" before Summoning "The Winged Dragon of Ra". When "Ra" is summoned reduce your Life Points to increase the ATK to max. Then attack directly with "Ra" and after the attack, activate "Sebek's Blessing". This will restore the Life Points you offered.
+
* Combine "[[Nightmare Archfiends]]" with "[[Owner's Seal]]" to Special Summon 3 monsters to Tribute Summon this card.
  
==Traditional Format==
+
* In a Psychic Deck you can use "[[Telekinetic Power Well]]" in order to Summon 3 Level 2 or lower Psychic-Type monsters to fulfill this card's Summoning requirements.
* Summon this card and activate its first effect, then activate "[[Last Turn]]" for an almost guaranteed win.
 
  
* Use this card's second effect to clear your opponent's field of monsters, then use "[[Metamorphosis]]" to turn it into a "[[Cyber End Dragon]]" for a quick direct attack -- or even an OTK if you have a "[[Limiter Removal]]".
+
* Use "[[Sebek's Blessing]]" to restore the LP you paid to increase this card's ATK.
  
* Be extremely careful if your opponent has cards such as "[[Creature Swap]]", especially if you've reduced your Life Points to increase this card's ATK.
+
* Use "[[Power Frame]]" to make this card have the same ATK as a monster your opponent controls without the need to decrease your LP to be able to have enough ATK to stay alive and destroy monsters on the field.

* This card works well with "[[Number C39: Utopia Ray]]" and "[[Number C32: Shark Drake Veiss]]", since the effect of this card gets your LP low enough to use the effect of "Utopia Ray" or "Shark Drake Veiss" for more damage.
  
* Cards like "[[Megamorph]]" and "[[Unstable Evolution]]" can also works very well with this card
+
* If you control two "[[Flint Lock]]s", "[[Flint]]" and "[[Morale Boost]]", then you can continuously equip "Flint", switching between the two "Flint Locks", while "Morale Boost" gives you 1000 LP each time you do so.

Adding "[[Spell Absorption]]" to this cycle will add an extra 500 points for each time you do this, boosting your LP even higher.
