Summoning[edit]
- Ways to quickly get Fiend-Type monsters onto the field in order to Summon this card include:
- Normal Summoning "Tour Guide From the Underworld" and using her effect to bring out another Fiend-Type monster.
- "Garbage Lord" can be Special Summoned from your hand by paying 2000 Life Points.
- Activate "Fires of Doomsday". However, you won't be able to Summon other monsters during the same turn. So, try and activate it during your opponent's End Phase.
- Tribute Summon a DARK monster with "Metabo Globster" to Summon 3 Fiend-Type "Metabo Tokens".
- Summon "Kuriboh" and activate "Multiply". Tribute 3 of the "Kuriboh Tokens" to Special Summon "Raviel".
- Activate the Trap Card "DNA Surgery" and select "Fiend". Then activate "Scapegoat" and tribute 3 "Sheep Tokens" to Summon this card.
- Normal Summon "Phantom Skyblaster" while you already control another monster, which produces 2 Fiend-Type "Skyblaster Tokens" to accompany "Phantom Skyblaster" as Tributes.
- Activate "Nightmare Archfiends" and use "Owner's Seal"/"Remove Brainwashing" to take control of the Fiend-Type "Nightmare Archfiend Tokens".
- Special summon "Grinder Golem" to your opponent's side of the field and use "Owner's Seal"/"Remove Brainwashing" to take control of it. Then tribute it and the Fiend-Type "Grinder Tokens".
- Use the effect of "Puppet Master".
- Use the collective effects of the "Malicevorous" monsters.
- Use the effect of "Giant Germ" to Special Summon 2 more copies after it's destroyed.
- When you Special Summon "Evil HERO Infernal Prodigy" and your opponent controls a face-up monster, combo with "Inferno Reckless Summon" to bring out another 2 copies.
- Use the effect of "D-Boyz" to bring out 2 more copies of itself. If the first "D-Boyz" wasn't destroyed by battle after it was flipped face-up, you now have suitable Tributes to Summon this card.
- Use the collective effects of the "Crashbug" monsters.
- Afterwards, you can Summon "Super Crashbug", assuming that all the Tributed monsters went to the Graveyard.
Other Tips[edit]
- This card can be used in a Dark World Deck, since almost all of the monsters in that archetype are Fiend-Type.
- Tribute "Grapha, Dragon Lord of Dark World" for this card's effect, since that monster can easily be revived multiple times by its own Summoning condition.
- Remember that Fiend-Type Tokens can be used as well as regular Fiend-Type monsters for this card's Summon.
- Use "Light of Intervention" to prevent your opponent from Normal Setting. They'll be forced to Normal Summon instead, which helps to generate more "Phantasm Tokens".
- After this card is Summoned, "Dark Necrofear" can be easily Summoned afterwards due to the Tributes.
- Use this card as a Fusion Material Monster for "Evil HERO Dark Gaia", as it is tied with "Darkness Neosphere" and "The Wicked Dreadroot" for having the highest ATK of any Fiend-Type monster.
- This card is also tied with those monsters for having the highest DEF of any Fiend-Type monster.
- With this card's effect, "Goblin King" will gain more ATK from each "Phantasm Token" this card produces, along with this card itself.
- Combo with "Token Stampede" to protect your tokens.
- Combo with "Dark Ruler Ha Des", perhaps bringing it out with a "Phantasm Token".
Traditional Format[edit]
- If you're planning to summon "Raviel" with "Phantasmal Martyrs", one method of doing so is a combo with "Phantasmal Martyrs", "Plaguespreader Zombie" and "Card of Safe Return".
