Quite a few grammatical errors. Also, you should type your card text under the card for people to quote directly.

 

DARK is an attribute and is fully capitalized.

 

Here's a fix, try to follow this pattern:

 

"Equip only to a DARK Spellcaster-Type monster; it gains 1500 ATK Points. When this card is destroyed; the monster equipped with this card is banished, and you lose Life Points equal the monster's original ATK stat."

 

Otherwise, it's pretty neat.

Ik about my grammar issues grammar is not a strong point of mine

You don't need all the semicolons ( ; ) those are used to separate cost from effect and are not typically seen on equip spells.

Equip only to a DARK Spellcaster-Type monster. The equipped monster gains 1500 ATK. When this card is destroyed, banish the equipped monster, then you lose Life Points equal to it's original ATK.

Grammar is a big part of card text, just keep practicing and you'll get the hang of it. (You can delete the quotation marks around your card text.)

Eh, ultimately, this card is very weak.

 

Yes, it has a nice static 1500 boost but it's only to DARK Spellcasters, plus it has a terrible drawback in LP loss (and the equipped monster banished) if this card alone is destroyed.

 

When it comes to sheer power boost, United We Stand and Mage Power is the standard to meet.

 

Perhaps if the Forbidden Grimoire did something extra and gamebreaking. Like letting you arrange the top X cards of your Deck each turn or something.

Well a grimoire is a book of terrible dark magic powers so it stands to reason that only spellcasters can use it and on top of that only ones that are allied with dark forces as for the life lose to read such a book the user had to either make a blood sacrifice of another human being or give his or her own soul up (historically speaking). So basically ultimate power but with the ultimate sacrifice. And most spellcasters are dark anyways, so the restriction should cause that much of a problem

Add more effects then, as the power is not only in the form of direct atk boost.

this better

You know what's funny about this card? Mystic Lamp is like literally it's best use. And even then it's just iffy.
I mean, the oddly specific requirement is fine and all, and 1500 ATK is a little outlandish for something like this, but now-a-days running over things by battle is typically easily interrupted if they are just straight-up played out without any sort of realistic set-up. So more often then not, a card like this is better suited for being a Trap that equips itself to the monster, because the added surprise factor gives it more mileage for the fact it can also be defensive in addition to being offensive. Horn of the Phantom Beast and Survival of the Fittest, come to mind, for examples of what I'm getting at.

Or at least, the way I see it.

So... a 3700 ATK Midrash who happens to be a draw engine is okay now? The Shaddoll support is real XD

I would say it's fine otherwise but these fusion summoning bastards exist and anything spellcaster related that would mildly support other decks are almost gamebreaking with these guys around.

Also I would change the wording on the draw 2 effect because the way it's worded implies that you draw off of the declaration. I would change it to something like: When the equipped monster inflicts battle damage by a direct attack; Draw 2 cards.
