- This card can be searched by "Dark Sage", "Ancient Gear Drill", "Alchemic Magician", "Left Arm Offering", "Watch Dog", "The Despair Uranus", "Synchro Fusionist", "Sabatiel - The Philosopher's Stone", "Predaplant Chimerafflesia", "Predaplant Darlingtonia Cobra", "Supreme King Gate Zero", and "Cyberdark Inferno".
- With the new Erratum, it is now possible to destroy this card or remove it from the field before its first effect resolves, so keep cards handy to protect it until you can Fusion Summon your monster. This includes cards such as "Magic Reflector" and "Card Guard".
- Use "Forbidden Lance" or "Forbidden Dress" to prevent the Fusion Monster from being destroyed by this card's effect.
- If there is a "Spell Canceller" on your field, an effect can be used to destroy this card without destroying your Fusion Monster.
- 2 Normal Pendulum Monsters can be send in order to Fusion Summon "First of the Dragons"; then, use "Dark Factory of Mass Production" to add them to your hand, potentially allowing yourself to place them in the Pendulum Zones and perform Pendulum Summons.
- Reveal a Fusion Monster that can be Fusion Summoned from the graveyard with cards like "Miracle Fusion", "Dragon's Mirror", and "Magicalized Fusion" with this card, then activate that card during the next turn to Summon that Fusion Monster.
- If used to Fusion Summon monsters that require a great amount of Materials (like "Chimeratech Overdragon", "Worm Zero", or "Infernoid Tierra"), this card can be a useful Deck Thinner and/or Graveyard Filler. This can be useful for many different strategies:
- Filling your Graveyard:
- This card can serve as a double "Foolish Burial" in a Gemini monsters Deck, providing targets for "Blazewing Butterfly", "Woodland Archer", "Supervise" and "Black Brutdrago" while also sending high Level monsters such as "Phoenix Gearfried", "Chthonian Emperor Dragon" and "Grasschopper" to the Graveyard to be Special Summoned later, while also preventing yourself from dead drawing them.
- In a "Shaddoll" Deck, reveal "Quintet Magician" and send 5 "Shaddoll" monsters to the Graveyard, using their effects to your advantage. If all of the "Shaddolls" have different names, "Quintet Magician's" effect can nuke the opponent's field when it is summoned.
- By sending 3 DARK Dragon-Type monsters to your Graveyard and 2 other Dragon-Type monsters, a "Dark Armed Dragon" can easily be Special Summoned, and in two turns there will be a "Five-Headed Dragon" on the field as well.
- In a "Dragunity" Deck, this card, combined with "Five-Headed Dragon", can be used as a "Painful Choice" + 1. Send Dragon-Type "Dragunity" monsters to your Graveyard, and they can be latter equipped with your other "Dragunity" monsters, and in 2 turns, if your card isn't destroyed, there will be a massive monster.
- With the release of "Rainbow Overdragon", this card can make "Crystal Beast" Decks fairly easier to summon "Rainbow Dragon" (and, if "Advanced Dark" or "Rainbow Gravity" is used, "Rainbow Dark Dragon").
- In a Deck built around "Exodia Necross", you can reveal "Quintet Magician" and dump the 5 "Forbidden One" cards from your Deck into the Graveyard, fulfilling the requirements for "Contract with Exodia".
- Summoning monsters from the Graveyard:
- 3 "Jinzo - Returner" and 3 "Jinzo" can be send to the Graveyard and use the effect of "Returner" and Special Summon all 3 "Jinzo".
- Send powerful monsters to the Graveyard in order to revive all of them with "Soul Charge".
- "Ultimate Ancient Gear Golem" works well due to the fact that if "Ultimate" is destroyed by this card's effect, an "Ancient Gear Golem" can be brought back.
- After a large amount of "Infernoid" monsters are send to your Graveyard by revealing "Infernoid Tierra", they can be revived immediately by banishing other "Infernoid" monsters from your Graveyard, allowing for easy OTK's.
- Filling your Graveyard:
- Use this card, revealing "Elemental HERO Divine Neos", to send monsters that can later return to your Deck with "Miracle Contact".
- Send 3 "Blue Eyes White Dragon", then use "Dragon's Mirror" to instantly Summon "Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon".
- In a Magician deck, "Quintet Magician" can be revealed to send "Double Iris Magician", "White Wing Magician", "Black Fang Magician", "Purple Poison Magician", and any fifth Spellcaster monster to immediately provide all the monsters needed to summon "Supreme King Z-ARC" with "Astrograph Sorcerer" or "Chronograph Sorcerer".
Traditional Format[]
- Another useful combo in a Dragon Deck is to summon "Five-Headed Dragon" or any monster that can use 3 copies of "Eclipse Wyvern" and at least one copy of "Defrag Dragon" to Fusion Summon. Then, banish three Level 7 or higher, LIGHT or DARK Dragon Monsters from your deck, and using "Defrag Dragon's" second effect, banishing the 3 "Eclipse Wyverns" to resurrect it and add the three Dragons banished by "Eclipse Wyvern" to your hand.
