• This card can be searched by "Trap Trick", "Trap Tracks", "Lady Labrynth of the Silver Castle", "Lilith, Lady of Lament", "Triple Tactics Thrust", "Angel of Blue Tears", "Farewelcome Labrynth", "Labrynth Set-Up", and other generic searchers.

• This card can be used with "Winged Kuriboh LV9" to power it up and take out some of their Spell Cards.

• After using this card, summon a "White-Horned Dragon" to take advantage of all the spells that have been sent to your opponent's Graveyard.

• You can use "Double Spell" to copy the Spell Card you need once it is sent to your opponent's Graveyard.

• Use this card with "Doomkaiser Dragon/Assault Mode" or "Superancient Deepsea King Coelacanth", as the monsters they summon with their effects would otherwise be useless.

• Since this card causes you to lose field presence, it would work well with "Kaiser Colosseum" to prevent more monsters from being summoned by your opponent. For best results, chain this card with an already active "Kaiser Colosseum" to an opponent's card effect that would allow him/her to summon additional monsters (e.g., "Monster Reborn", "Backs to the Wall"), which would shut down the effect of your opponent's card, potentially cause your opponent to pay a heavy cost for activating their card, and mill your opponent of a few spell cards.

• Use this card in a "Hieratic" Deck, Tributing "Hieratic Dragon of Su", "Tefnuit", "Eset" and/or "Nebthet" to Special Summon one Dragon-Type Normal Monster for each Tributed monster.

• This card works best in any deck focused on Pendulum Summoning. At any turn where all your monsters survived your opponent's turn, you can use this card to tribute all 5 of them and greatly cripple your opponent's deck, then simply re-Summon them using the set scales. By using 2 of this card, you can eliminate all of your average opponent's spell cards.

• Use this card as a counter to "Raigeki" or "Torrential Tribute", to make use of the monsters that were about to be destroyed.
• Be extremely wary about using this card against Kaiju-focused decks, as your opponent could send 3 copies of Interrupted Kaiju Slumber to their graveyard to set up plays for later. In most cases it can be wiser to substitute this card for a Side Deck card against such opponents.
  • The same goes for Nekroz, Monarchs, or any deck running multiple copies of Galaxy Cyclone.
