- This card can be searched by "Banishment of the Darklords", "Condemned Darklord", "Indulged Darklord", "Darklord Morningstar", "Celestial Knightlord Parshath", "Ahrima, the Wicked Warden", "Magical Contract Door", "Chaos Zone" and "Link Party".
- "Fiend's Sanctuary" makes it easy to Tribute Summon this card once its one-Tribute requirement is met. On-theme, the one-Tribute requirement could be accomplished by resolving the hand effects of "Darklord Ixchel", "Darklord Nasten" and "Darklord Amdusc" on the same turn, with "Amdusc" retrieving this card if it were discarded to activate either of the other two.
- This card's effect to destroy monsters is best used when you have the means to win on the same turn, so that the loss in card advantage to summon this card no longer matters. If you cannot close out the duel, use "Forbidden Chalice" to prevent this card from destroying itself. Similarly, you can use it as Tribute fodder (if you Special Summoned this card) or as material for a Synchro Summon, Xyz Summon or Link Summon.
- If you had Tributed a non-Token, non-Pendulum DARK monster having met the summon conditions, then used this card's on-field effect, this card being destroyed would set up a seventh DARK monster in your Graveyard for the summon of "Rainbow Dark Dragon" on your next turn, provided that neither the Tributed nor discarded DARK monster shared their names with any other DARK monster in your Graveyard.
Traditional Format[]
- Use "Painful Choice" to quickly load the Graveyard with 4 different DARK monsters to make it easier to Tribute Summon this card.
