With the Gizmek support and some of the Gimmick puppet cards having the same attack and defence points, you can easily combine the two.
The main strategy is to get whatever xyz monster fits at the time, Grinder for special summoned monsters, sins for start and a beefy first turn, strings if a rank up magic and more!
The two decks work together so well since they are machines. You can also optimize this deck for yourself it it doesn't fit your style.
Some of the gimmicks aren't used for their effects, instead used for draw power, however they could come in handy depending on your opponent
