- This card is best used in combination with "Disarm" or "Parry" since its effect only activates when it comes from the deck.
- If you want to gain hand advantage with this card but not lose field advantage by returning it, summon it with "Gladiator Beast Secutor", since "Secutor" summons two monsters to the field and is not returned to the Deck itself.
- Use this card to help maintain "Gladiator Beast Octavius".
- In a tight situation where you know you're going to clear the field of monsters, end the line of Gladiator Beast summons to draw a card and not lose the monster to your own card clearing effects.
