Playing Style
The "Gizmek" monsters usually cannot do well on their own and instead depend on other archetypes that they support, functioning as an engine in other decks such as Rescue-ACE or Deskbot due to their stats. This makes it easy to use their most powerful card, the Field Spell "Sacred Scrolls of the Gizmek Legend".
The Level 4 or lower "Gizmek" monsters (along with "Makami") support Machines with equal ATK/DEF, and have an on-field effect and also an effect with banished from the GY.
"Makami" is unique in that it can Normal Summon itself without Tributing if you have 6 or more banished cards, which can easily be fulfilled by using cards like "Pot of Desires" and "Gizmek Orochi, the Serpentron Sky Slasher".

Weaknesses
The deck is not very good on its own and often suffers to plenty of disruption, often relying on other decks in order to become more powerful.
