• This card can be searched by "Orcust Crescendo", "Gear Gigant X", "Machine Duplication", "Machina Armored Unit", "Biofalcon", "UFOroid", "Genex Neutron", "Tuner's High", "Chaofeng, Phantom of the Yang Zing", "Hot Red Dragon Archfiend Bane", "Mystic Tomato", "Chaos Zone", "Sphere of Chaos", "Serpentine Princess", "Battle Royal Mode - Joining", "Vampire Dragon", "Rescue Ferret", "Umbramirage the Elemental Lord", "Sangan", "Witch of the Black Forest", and other generic searchers.

• If you are in a tough spot, you can Normal Summon this card and Synchro Summon "Black Rose Dragon".
  • In a Meklord-themed Deck, Normal Summon this card, activate its effect to Special Summon "Meklord Army of Wisel" from your Graveyard, Synchro Summon "Black Rose Dragon", and destroy all cards on the field. Then, because "Black Rose Dragon" was destroyed by a card effect and sent to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon a Meklord Emperor from your hand and attack your opponent directly.
  • In a "Geartown" Deck, this can give you a free "Ancient Gear Gadjiltron Dragon" as well, since the Trigger Effect of "Geartown" doesn't preclude the Summon of a Meklord Emperor.

• After Normal Summoning this card and using its effect, you can Special Summon 2 copies of this card via "Machine Duplication". Then, use a "Salvo" and the revived Machine to Synchro Summon "Karakuri Shogun mdl 00 "Burei"". He can Special Summon a non-Tuner Karakuri monster ("Karakuri Ninja mdl 7749 "Nanashick"" is recommended). Tune "Salvo" and the newly Summoned monster for another Karakuri Shogun, and Special Summon more non-Tuner Material for the last Salvo. You can drop "Dark Armed Dragon" at this point, just in case.

• If you are wondering how to easily Summon "Hyper Psychic Blaster", if you control a level 2 Tuner monster, just Summon this card and, by its effect, any Level 4 DARK Machine-Type monster from your Graveyard, Synchro Summon a "Psychic Lifetrancer", and use "Psychic Lifetrancer" as a Synchro Material Monster for "Hyper Psychic Blaster". Note that this doesn't work for "Overmind Archfiend".

• This card has plenty of targets in an Ally of Justice Deck.

• Use this card to get out "Trap Reactor・Y FI". Then Special Summon "Turbo Booster" from your hand to Synchro Summon "Dark Flattop". You can use "Dark Flattop" to Special Summon any Reactors from your Graveyard.

Traditional Format

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

• Use "Advanced Ritual Art" to Ritual Summon "Demise, King of Armageddon" by sending 2 "Mechanicalchasers", 2 "Blockers" or 1 of each, and clear the field with "Demise's" effect. Then Normal Summon "Black Salvo", use its effect to Special Summon one of the monsters sent by "Advanced Ritual Art" to Synchro Summon "Dark Strike Fighter" for an OTK.

• Other than the Reactor monsters, you can also use this to Special Summon DARK Machine-Type Monsters from your Deck after activating "Future Fusion" for "Chimeratech Overdragon".
