  • Normal Summon this card, then Normal Summon "Aratama"; use its effect to add another copy of this card from your Deck to your hand; activate "Soul Transition", by tributing this card, and draw 2 cards, then draw 1 more card with this card's effect.
  • Set "Aratama" and Flip Summon it during your next turn to search for "Hino-Kagu-Tsuchi" or "Yamata Dragon". Then, Normal Summon this card, and Tribute Summon the one you just searched for by tributing both this card and "Aratama". Alternatively, you can search for a level 5 or 6 Spirit monster, such as "Great Long Nose" or "Fenghuang" and tribute only this card and draw 1 card.
  • Using this combo, you can quickly swarm the Field with powerful monsters: Normal Summon this card, then Normal Summon "Aratama"; use it to search for "Yamato-no-Kami" and Special Summon it; use both "Aratama" and this card to Xyz Summon "Number 101: Silent Honor ARK" and activate its effect (detaching 2 Xyz Materials is needed for this combo to work, assuming that you don't have a LIGHT and a DARK monster in your Graveyard; in addition, you will draw 1 card, since this card will be detached while you control "Yamato-no-Kami"); then, banish "Aratama" and this card from the Graveyard to Special Summon "Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning".
  • Normal Summon this card, then, Normal Summon "Kinka-byo"; Special Summon a Level 1 Tuner monster, such as a discarded "Effect Veiler", and use it and this card to Synchro Summon "Ally of Justice Catastor", "Armades, Keeper of Boundaries" etc. Once this card will be used as Synchro Material while "Kinka-byo" is face-up, you will get a strong monster and moreover draw 1 card.
  • Use this card's effect to Normal Summon a second Spirit monster, then use "Creature Swap" to give this card to your opponent; when you destroy it by battle, it will let you draw 1 card.
  • Use this card to Xyz Summon "Daigusto Emeral". Use its effect to shuffle 3 Spirit monsters from the Graveyard into the Deck (Spirit monsters are virtually useless while in the Graveyard) and draw 1 card. By detaching this card, you will trigger its effect and be able to draw 1 more card.
    • At the first time you use this, you cannot target this card itself to be returned, because it will miss the timing and will be shuffled into the deck before it could allow you to draw 1 card.

Traditional Format[edit]

  • Send this card to the Graveyard by the effect of "Lavalval Chain" to draw 1 card.
    • You can later retrieve it with "Izanami".
    • Detach this card from "Lavalval Chain" while you control a Spirit Monster to draw any monster in your deck.
      • If you have a DARK monster in your Graveyard, use the strategy above to stack "Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning", then draw it and Special Summon it.
