Here is a Tip. Do not Summon this card. If you do, it is sent to the [[Graveyard]] during the [[End Phase]]. What you should do, is [[Set]] this card in [[face-down]] [[Defense Position]], and activate [[Book of Taiyou]] to flip [[Gandora the Dragon of Destruction]] into [[face-up[[ in [[Attack Position]]. Then, activate the card's effect by [[pay]]ing half of your [[Life Point]]s, and [[destroy]] all cards on the field except this Gandora. Your Dragon will gain 300 [[ATK]] for every card [[destroyed]] this effect. Now, during your [[End Phase]], [[Gandora the Dragon of Destruction]] will not be sent to the [[Graveyard]] because you [[Set]] the monster and flipped it [[face-up]] with [[Book of Taiyou]] instead of [[Normal Summon]]ing or [[Flip Summon]]ong it.

* This card can be searched by "[[Dogu]]", "[[Single Purchase]]", "[[Painful Escape]]", "[[Sangan]]","[[Witch of the Black Forest]]", "[[Chaos Zone]]", "[[Magical Contract Door]]", "[[Draconnection]]" and "[[Krystal Dragon]]".

* This card can be [[Tribute Summon]]ed with one [[Tribute]] using "[[Double Coston]]", "[[Totem Dragon]]", "[[Keeper of the Shrine]]" and "[[The First Monarch]]".
  +
  +
* "[[Mausoleum of the Emperor]]" and "[[Star Blast]]" are economical ways of Summoning this card, since their LP costs essentially mean only an extra 1000 LP is paid for this card's effect (as compared to Summoning this card normally and then using its effect).
  +
  +
* Monster such as "[[Dynatherium]]" and "[[Gilasaurus]]" are ideal monsters to use for this card's Tribute Summon, since their effects can provide an additional monster for this card's effect to destroy and banish.
  +
  +
* Since this card has an original ATK of 0, and its effect drastically reduces one's own LP, it pairs quite well with "[[Unstable Evolution]]".
  +
  +
* This card's effect works well with the effects of cards that activate when they themselves are banished, such as "[[D.D. Survivor]]", "[[D.D. Scout Plane]]", "[[Xyz Dimension Splash]]", etc.
  +
  +
* This card's End Phase effect can be avoided by either of the following methods:
  +
** First [[Tribute Set]]ting it, then using a card like "[[Book of Taiyou]]" to change it to face-up Attack Position.
  +
*** "[[Fires of Doomsday]]" and "[[Stray Lambs]]" are efficient cards to use for this, since their effects prevent its activator from Summoning other monsters during the turn they're activated (which Tribute Setting avoids).
  +
** [[Banish]]ing it temporarily before returning it to the field, such as by the effects of "[[Dimensionhole]]", "[[Future Visions]]", "[[Interdimensional Matter Transporter]]", etc.
  +
  +
* If this card is able to avoid its End Phase effect, it is best to use cards that produce Tokens in order to capitalize on its destroy-and-banish effect, such as "[[Scapegoat]]", "[[Scapeghost]]", "[[Grinder Golem]]", "[[Phantom Skyblaster]]", etc.
  +
  +
* Before this card gets sent to the Graveyard by its End Phase effect, it can still be utilized for the cost of cards like "[[Advance Draw]]", "[[Mystik Wok]]", etc.
  +
  +
* This card is a good card to banish by the effect of "[[Phantom of Chaos]]", since that monster's effect can be made to 'expire' during the End Phase before its gained End Phase effect activates.
  +
  +
* In a [[Dragon]]-[[Type]] Deck, this card's effect works well for clearing the field before making an aggressive play by Special Summoning "[[Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon]]" (by banishing this card) and then using its effect to Special Summon another Dragon-Type monster for subsequent [[direct attack]]s.
  +
* Send to the Graveyard using "[[Dragon Shrine]]", "[[Foolish Burial]]", or "[[Trade-In]]"
  +
** Use "[[Recurring Nightmare]]" to recycle "[[Gandora (archetype)|Gandora]](s)" for reuse by "Trade-In" and/or card advantage.

* This card can be searched by "[[Tempest, Dragon Ruler of Storms]]".

* Before this card is destroyed by its effect, use "[[Metamorphosis]]" to summon "[[Cyber Twin Dragon]]".
