Mine is to give me flexibility with MS recording.

How about you?

Mine is the double phase-reversal technique in which you reverse the phase of the left side 180 degrees twice. It makes the sound fat, warm, and punchy.

I like to reverse the phase of the drummer by having him strike the drums from the bottom side and then record with all mics with the phase flipped so that its back to normal.

Flipping the phase on the kick going to the monitors (or ears) increases the perceived volume ... great trick.

Does he have to play the track backwards, too?

reversing the phase of the click in the L/R of the headphones for better click cancellation during tracking.

Confession: I'm a little drunk reading and replying to this... Does this work? I can see how maybe it could, but I'm second guessing myself and the overwhelming sarcasm of this forum... Be kind if I'm stupid. ;^)

"better click cancellation during tracking"

If you can master Beat Detective, there's NO need for a click track at all.
