- This card works especially well with "Naturia Pineapple", whose effect treats all monsters you control as Plant-Type.
- Since "Alpaca" is a Level 7, and requires 2 Tributes, you can use "Cost Down" to only need one Tribute to Summon it. It can also be Tribute Summon with one Tribute using "The Trojan Horse" and "The First Monarch".
- Use "Spirit Barrier" while your cards are in attack position to prevent you from taking any damage.
- Careful use of "Zero Gravity" and "No Entry!!" will allow you to manipulate how your cards are destroyed. In the event of "Dark Hole" or a similar field clearer, you can chain either of those two to put all of your monsters to Defense to protect them from destruction, and in the event of a giant swarm, you can activate either of those two to disable their attacking while making sure if the opponent has a card like "Elemental HERO Wildheart" they still can't take out a monster on your side of the field.
- Use "DNA Surgery" to convert this card into one of the three types it's effect affects. affording this card self defense via its own effect.
