Card Tips:Exodius the Ultimate Forbidden Lord


 * This card can be searched via "Witch of the Black Forest".


 * This card can be recycled back to the Deck with Necroface after self-removing when leaving the field.


 * Heart of Clear Water or Mist Body can be equipped to it to avoid its demise when attacking to get Exodia in the graveyard.


 * Use Future Fusion on five Normal Dragon-Type(to summon Five-Headed Dragon) monsters or an any number Normal Machine-Type (to summon Chimeratech Overdragon or Chimeratech Fortress Dragon) to increase this monster's ATK dramatically.


 * An OTK involving this card contains Diffusion Wave-Motion, this card, and Ojama Trio. Make sure you had Ojama Trio set on a previous turn and activate it. Special Summon Exodius with his effect, and activate Diffusion Wave Motion. Attack an Ojama Token, send Exodia the Forbidden One (the head) to the Graveyard so he doesn't gain ATK. Attack the Ojama token again, send 1 Exodia limb to the Graveyard. Attack an Ojama Token again with 2000 ATK, he'll destroy it, send an Exodia limb to the Graveyard. Attack the last 2 Ojama Tokens, send the remaining 2 limbs to the Graveyard. Exodius's effect wins you the duel for the OTK. Exodius and Diffusion Wave-Motion are already a good combo, but for the OTK Ojama Trio is needed.


 * You do not have to have a lot of monsters in your Graveyard to summon Exodius. If your opening hand includes a monster that can be discarded for its effect, such as D.D. Crow or King of the Swamp, or the Spell Card Foolish Burial, you can use their effect and then return the monster to your Deck to summon Exodius in your very first turn.


 * This card can be used to recycle monster cards that have already been used, such as Nimble Momonga.


 * You can use this card in combination with Lightsworns monsters to send as many cards as possible from the top of your deck to the Graveyard. Simply summoning it will also recycle all your Lightsworns to counter the self-milling in that deck (though doing so will reduce the effectiveness of the two Dragons in that Archetype).


 * When using this card, keep in mind that a simple Soul Release can destroy your entire strategy.


 * Try using Shien's Spy, Creature Swap, etc. to give your opponent a monster that cannot be destroyed in battle such as Marshmallon, Arcana Force 0 - The Fool, etc and attack it with Exodius during each Battle Phase. (Keep in mind that you cannot give your opponent Spirit Reaper as it will be automatically  be destroyed by your control shifting card because of it's own effect, causing you to waste two cards.


 * Try using the Gemini Monsters. They'll give you possible effects when they're on the field when you Gemini Summon them, and they'll work in the graveyard when you send them by Exodius' effect.


 * Once you summoned this card, use Painful Choice and select five normal monsters to give it an 4000 attack points boost.


 * When used in a Skull Servant deck, this card will power both itself up and King of the Skull Servants at the same time by sending Skull Servants to the Graveyard.
