Card Tips:Red-Eyes Black Dragon Sword
- This card can work well in any Dragon-Type Deck. Equipping this card to a Dragon-Type monster will cause it to gain 1500 extra ATK automatically.
- Use "Dragon Shrine" or "Dragon Ravine" to send more Dragon-Type monsters to the Graveyard to power up the monster equipped with this card.
- Equip this card to "Dark Paladin" or "Buster Blader, the Dragon Destroyer Swordsman" for an added massive increase in ATK.
- Use cards like "Forbidden Chalice" or "Skill Drain" to keep this card on the field instead of equipping it and set up for a Rank 7 Xyz Summon.
- The easiest way to use this card as a monster instead of equipping it to another monster is to Summon it while having no other monsters for it to target.
- Equip this card to "Archfiend Black Skull Dragon" in order to make a high ATK monster that cannot be stopped once it attacks.
- With "Dragon's Rage" also in play, one attack on a Defense Position Monster will result in an OTK.
- This card is a great choice to be equipped to "Gearfried the Swordmaster"/"Phoenix Gearfried". If you are facing off a Dragon Deck, (or you could mix "Gearfried" with a Dragon Archetype), this card as an Equip Card would fulfill "Gearfried's" effect as well as worth all the Dragons that have been used at Duel.
- Ironically, Joey Wheeler used this strategy against Rex Raptor at Episode 161
Traditional Format[edit]
- Equipping this card to "Victory Dragon" will give it at least 1500 ATK. Keep in mind that that Monster can be Normal Summoned without any Tributes via "Star Blast".
- However, it's best to set up your Graveyard, partially through "Victory Dragon's" Summoning Conditions, to get the most out of this card's effect.
