• This card can be added from the Deck to the hand by "Ancient Gear Ballista", "Ancient Gear Wyvern", "Ancient Gear Dark Golem", "Gear Gigant X", "Geargiauger", "Infinitrack River Stormer", "Clockwork Night", "Machina Metalcruncher", "Aussa the Earth Channeler", "Heavy Armored Train Ironwolf", "Biofalcon", "Frontline Observer", "Primathmech Alembertian", "Vampire Dragon", "Resonator Engine", "Umbramirage the Elemental Lord", "Sangan", and other generic searchers.
  • This card can be Special Summoned from the Deck by "Ancient Gear Catapult", "Geartown", "Ancient Gear Howitzer", "Machine Duplication", "Urgent Schedule", "Machina Armored Unit", "UFOroid", "Giant Rat", "BOXer", "Summoner Monk", "Battle Royal Mode - Joining", "Soul Rope", "Rescue Ferret", and other generic searchers.

• In a dedicated "Ancient Gear" Deck, the effects of "Ancient Gear Golem - Ultimate Pound", "Ancient Gear Workshop", and "Ancient Gear Wyvern" can be used to trigger this card's effect.
  • While this card's effect can be useful in searching for specific "Ancient Gear" monsters (in order to use their effects), it can also be useful in accumulating Fusion Materials for the Fusion Summons of "Ancient Gear" Fusion Monsters.
    • As such, "Fusion Recycling Plant" can be useful in those Fusion Summoning Decks, since it can search for "Polymerization" and trigger this card's effect.
  • This card's effect can search "Infinitrack Anchor Drill", which can Summon this card upon its Normal Summon. This allows for a variety of useful Special Summons, such as "Ancient Gear Ballista", "Number 60: Dugares the Timeless", "Knightmare Phoenix", or "Knightmare Cerberus".

• Because it is relatively easy for EARTH Machine Decks to Link Summon "Ancient Gear Ballista" and search this card, it can be used to search certain situational monsters that may be run as a single copy in the Deck. For instance, "Magical Hound" is very useful for dealing with a disruptive Continuous Trap or Field Spell, but is not hugely useful to have multiple copies of due to the once per duel nature of the effect.
  • "Infinitrack Tunneller" is another great target, since it can banish itself from the GY to shuffle 5 EARTH Machine monsters into the Deck to draw 2 cards.

• Since this card's effect can be used if it is added from the GY to the hand as well, "Super Express Bullet Train" can be used to return this card to the hand during the End Phase, allowing its effect to be used more times.
  • "Gear Gigant X" can also recycle this card from the GY.

• This card can work well in a "Geargia" Deck, since there are multiple "Geargia" monsters that have 500 DEF, and because the effects of "Gear Gigant X" and "Geargiauger" can trigger this card's effect.
  • "Infinitrack" and "Deskbot" Decks can also benefit greatly from using this card, due to many of their members sharing the 500 ATK/DEF stat line.

• In Machine Decks, this card's effect can be useful in facilitating the Special Summons of "Machina Fortress" and "Machina Cannon".

Traditional Format

• This card can be searched by "Last Will".
