The three Sacred Beasts historically lacked support cards that worked to effectively support all three monsters, and so were typically played separately as individual decks focused on bringing out one of the three Sacred Beasts, using their own summoning conditions. Later on, as the three Sacred Beasts received consistency support and series-wide support, Sacred Beast Decks gradually homogenized around the new series-wide support.
Before receiving their shared consistency support, historical Sacred Beast decks focused on individual Sacred Beasts differed signicantly significantly between them in order to fulfill the monsters' summoning conditions:
* Historical "Hamon"-focused Decks are focused on using [[Continuous Spell Card]]s to enable the summon of "Hamon". The Deck synergized with "[[Crystal Beast]]s", as they become Continuous Spell Cards after being [[destroy]]ed.
After receiving their shared support, Sacred Beast monsters became far easier to summon thanks to the effects of "[[Chaos Summoning Beast]]" and "[[Dark Summoning Beast]]", and became far easier to access thanks to the searchers "[[Dark Beckoning Beast]]" and "[[Opening of the Spirit Gates]]".
Modern Sacred Beast Decks can be built to focus on summoning one of the three Sacred Beasts and use its dedicated [[Signature move]] support (e.g. "[[Cerulean Skyfire]]") to maximize consistency, or playing multiple different Sacred Beast monsters to enable stronger support cards that require multiple different Sacred Beasts (e.g. "[[Awakening of the Sacred Beasts]]"), inluding including summoning "Armityle" with the effect of "[[Dimension Fusion Destruction]]".
