Dingirsu is like a Swiss army knife; he has 3 effects that are all relevant for us, but which come up rarely.

First of all, he has non-targeting removal which can come in handy if you face a monster that can't be targeted by card effects.

Then, he can detach 1 material whenever one of your cards would be destroyed, which can combo nicely with Garunix Eternity, Hyang of the Fire Kings or Fire King High Avatar Garunix, or can just protect you from your opponent's effects.

Last but not least, he can recycle a banished Amphibious Swarmship Amblowhale by attaching it as material, then detaching it at the first opportunity to do so. It comes up very rarely, but it could mean you have an extra disruption that could tip the scales in your favor.

Feel free to experiment with him to see what's best for you.
