- Consider using "Xyz Veil" to protect this card, due to the negative effect it has while having no material.
- "Overlay Regen" can replenish this card's material so that it can still be able to attack directly.
- Alternatively, you can Xyz Summon "Downerd Magician" or "Full Armored Black Ray Lancer" on top of this card after it has exhausted all of its material.
