- This card can be searched by "A Cat of Ill Omen", "Primathmech Alembertian", "Trap Trick" and "Lilith, Lady of Lament".
- NOTE: This card doesn't Fusion Summon any monsters. It just allows you to alter the method of getting the Materials to fuse.
- Alongside "Fusion Gate" and "Temple of the Kings", this card enables plenty of FTK strategies due to "Fusion Gate" not having a once-per-turn on its effect. The most prominent FTKs involve "Elemental HERO Electrum":
- Gustav Max FTK
- Blaze Fenix FTK
- "Cannon Soldier" and similar cards (now Forbidden in the OCG) also abuse the loop by Tributing two "Electrum" Special Summoned by "Fusion Gate", then Fusion Summoning an "Elemental HERO The Shining" by using the two "Electrum" now in the Graveyard, before Fusion Summoning a third "Electrum" to return "The Shining" and the other two "Electrum" to the Extra Deck.
- Aero Shark FTK does not involve "Electrum", but still involves banishing 27 cards in your deck and then using "Submersible Carrier Aero Shark's" effect three times.
- Outside of any FTKs involving "Fusion Gate", this card is best used alongside a Spell Speed 2 effect that Fusion Summons, the most notable being "Necro Fusion", in which this card overrides "Necro Fusion's" face-down banishment of Fusion Materials by banishing them face-up instead.
Protecting the Summoned Monster[]
- Synchro, Xyz, or Link Summon using the Fusion Monsters that are summoned, then revive one of the Fusion Monsters using "Re-Fusion".
- Have "Mound of the Bound Creator" active to protect Level 10 or higher monsters from being destroyed.
- Use "Vehicroid Connection Zone" for "Vehicroid" Fusion Monsters.
- "Ultimate Axon Kicker" cannot be destroyed by card effects.
- "Heavy Mech Support Platform", "Oilman", "Machina Gearframe" or "Machina Peacekeeper" can protect Machine Fusion Monsters.
- "Armored Cybern" works well for saving "Chimeratech Overdragon".
- "Elegy the Melodious Diva" can protect "Melodious" Fusion Monsters.
- Use with cards like "Dimensionhole" to protect your Fusion Monsters from this card's destruction effect.
