* This card can be [[Searcher|searched]] by "[[Zexal Construction]]", "[[ZS - Ascended Sage]]", "[[Gimmick Puppet Fantasix Makina]]", "[[Raidraptor - Brave Strix]]", "[[Number 71: Rebarian Shark]]", "[[Raidraptor - Wise Strix]]", "[[Puppet Parade]]", "[[Raider's Unbreakable Mind]]", "[[Raptor's Ultimate Mace]]", "[[Triple Tactics Thrust]]", "[[Endymion, the Mighty Master of Magic]]", and other [[List of generic searchers#Spells|generic searchers]].

* When running "Astral Force" normally, one will often be restricted to a single "line" of monsters that share a [[Type]] and [[Attribute]] (as detailed below). This is partly due to "Astral Force's" condition of targeting the highest-rank monster the player controls– which will usually be whichever monster was summoned last with "Astral Force." Keep this in mind when building your extra deck if you plan on using "Astral Force" multiple times in succession.

* Keep in mind that you can manipulate which Xyz Monsters you can Summon with this card by using "[[DNA Surgery]]" and "[[DNA Transplant]]" (or "[[Scroll of Bewitchment]]") to adjust your monster's stats.

** This can also work as a disruption tactic against your opponent if they also rely on "Rank-up" strategies where monster [[Type]] is critical.

* A [[Deck]] that uses "Astral Force" as a key card would do well to run "[[Xyz]]" cards. "[[Xyz Tribalrivals]]" can help support powerhouse monsters granted more than 2 materials through continuous rank-ups. "[[Xyz Territory]]" will help build momentum against your opponent, as your new Xyz monsters will benefit more and more from the field with each successive rank-up. Running "[[Generation Force (card)|Generation Force]]" can help maintain consistency by searching for all these support Cards.
** This can also work as a general disruption tactic against your opponent if they also rely on strategies where their monsters' Type or Attribute is critical and/or make their cards vulnerable to your own Type/Attribute-targeting cards.

*A good powerhouse monster to use with "Astral Force" is "[[Divine Dragon Knight Felgrand]]," as its "Rank-up Line" features several common and useful LIGHT-Warriors ("[[Number 39: Utopia]]," "[[Photon Strike Bounzer]]," etc).

* Unlike the other "[[Rank-Up-Magic]]" cards, this card can Special Summon other Xyz Monsters besides "[[CXyz]]", "[[Number C]]" and "[[Raidraptor]]" monsters, making it the single general-purpose and cross-archetype Rank-Up Spell, despite it's limitations.

* "[[Outer Entity Nyarla]]" can change its own Rank, Type and Attribute under certain conditions, allowing for an easy way to meet this card's conditions if a particular Xyz Monster can be Summoned. In fact, for many Xyz Monsters, this will be the only way to Summon them with "Astral Force".
