Card Tips:Hino-Kagu-Tsuchi


 * This card can be Tribute Summoned with one Tribute using "Flame Ruler".


 * Use "Dark Bribe" to protect this card. The card he/she draws from the effect of Dark Bribe will be send to the graveyard at your opponent's next draw phase.


 * This card works very well with "Mausoleum of the Emperor", as this card's power is respectably high, and it can destroy whatever assets your opponent has, Fushi No Tori can be used to ease the cost of Mausoleum.


 * You can play "Macro Cosmos" or "Dimensional Fissure" and offer "D.D. Survivors" or "D.D. Scout Planes" as Tributes for the Tribute Summon. When "Hino-Kagu-Tsuchi" returns to your hand, "D.D. Survivor" and "D.D. Scout Plane" will get Special Summoned onto your field and not leave you open because of their effects.
 * Use this combo if you are up against Dark World Decks, as Hino-Kagu-Tsuchi will only cause them to activate their effects otherwise.


 * Another method is to play Stray Lambs and set Hino-Kagu-Tsuchi. Keep in mind that the effect activates when your opponent attacks and the monster is flipped up, but may be less effective, as he can set as much cards as possible.


 * This and the other Spirit Monsters can waste Light and Darkness Dragon's effect.Due the spirit bounce effect is obligatory during the End Phase, LaDD will negate again and again the effect until it has a low ATK.


 * In a Dark World Deck, give this monster to your opponent and attack it with a monster with lower ATK. While the monster will be destroyed, Hino-Kagu-Tsuchi will return to your hand, as well as cause you to discard your entire hand at the start of your turn. However, because it's under your opponent's control, you can activate all of the secondary effects of the monsters, As well as at the beginning of your turn (this can be especially deadly if you discard two Reign Beaux, as that would clear your opponent's field as well as allowing you to attack directly with at least 2 monsters with 2500 atk).
 * Have a few Broww, Huntsman of Dark World's in your hand when you do this, so you will not lose hand advantage.


 * Use Sword of Kusanagi to make activating it's effect much easier.


 * If you can attack directly with both this card and Sasuke Samurai 3, your opponent will have to discard 7 cards from his deck, using this effect consecutively depletes a deck fairly quickly.


 * Activate "Giant Trunade" before inflicting damage with this card, so your opponent will discard more cards.


 * Use cards like "Guardian Sphinx" to allow this card to attack directly and make your opponent discard more cards.


 * Use Drop Off to get rid of your opponent's entire hand.
