Card Tips:Stand-Off


 * This can be useful in Decks that rely on "Exodia the Forbidden One" and "Final Countdown", so long as your monster that you targeted has enough ATK for you to withstand any battle damage from battles involving it (until you win).


 * If you don't fear your opponent Xyz Summoning a Rank 2 Xyz Monster, combo this card with the effect of "Nimble Musasabi" to give your opponent a low ATK monster for you to target with this card.
 * The effects of "Miracle Flipper", "Destiny HERO - Departed" (this can be difficult to accomplish), and "Worm Ugly" can also be used instead.
 * (Be wary of the fact your opponent can still Tribute their monster that you targeted.)


 * Use cards such as "Creature Swap", "Mystic Box" and "Shien's Spy" to control which monster your opponent control to target with this card.
 * If you use "Shien's Spy", once the effect of this card resolves, the monster you gave to your opponent will return to you once it is unaffected by other card effects, essentially allowing you to target 2 monsters you control.


 * Good monsters for you to target that you control include "Fusilier Dragon, the Dual-Mode Beast", "Beast King Barbaros", "Coach King Giantrainer", "Hell Centipede" and "Night Express Knight", since they can be Normal Summoned without Tributing (at the cost of their high ATK), but regain their high ATK once their effects are negated (which this card does).
