* Use the "[[Crystal Beasts]]" as [[Tribute]]s for "[[Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder]]", since they can become [[Continuous Spell Cards]] when [[destroy]]ed. This is also a great backup or substitute for Rainbow Dragon, as it only requires any three Crystal Beasts in the Continuous Spell zone (as opposed to Rainbow Dragon's requirement of 7 different crystal beasts). The downside, of course, is that the beasts are destroyed in the process of summoning Hamon.
**In the [[Crystal Beasts]] idea, it is great to use [[Crystal Beast Emerald Tortoise]] and [[Crystal Beast Amethyst Cat]] with it. You are able to either have a hit and run strategy with Hamon using Tortoise's effect or a permanent pinger.
** With [[Megamorph]], you can possibly [[OTK]] given the ease of summoning this card due to [[Crystal Beasts]] and Hamon's own effect, like if you attack a [[Sangan]] in attack mode. You can even swap your own weaker monsters if your opponent has monsters out via [[Shien's Spy]], [[Creature Swap]], or [[Mystic Box]]; Hamon is a special summon after all, and thus gives you a chance to use your normal summon for those latter 2 cards, like with [[Crystal Beast Ruby Carbuncle]], who has only 300 attack.
* If [[Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder]] is destroyed and sent to the [[Graveyard]], it's a good idea to use [[Monster Reincarnation]] to bring [[Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder|Hamon]] back to your [[hand]] to [[Special Summon]] [[Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder|Hamon]] to the field in the same turn, or later on.
