Once per turn: You can banish 1 Spell Card from your Graveyard; increase this card's ATK by 1000 until your next Standby Phase. If this card is banished: You can add 1 "Magician" Spellcaster-Type monster with a different name from your Deck to your hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpasmicUnitato Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 While you control a Spellcaster-Type monster; you can Special Summon this card from your hand.

If this card is banished; you can add 1 "Magician" Spellcaster-Type monster with a different name from your Deck to your hand. Okay so, I just corrected some parts where it said ":" and not ";", so yeah... It has a nice special summon effect, which makes up for its 2000 ATK for a level 6, and then it has the attack gain to make it a 3000 beater until your next standby phase. But anyone could really get out of that situation easily, but this is casual I guess. It's final effect is okay, with the banishing being needed, and being a dark is a good way to get banished. It kinda protects itself from being Bottomless as you can use it to grab itself, unless you wanted that, you could add a "except "Prophet Magician", I guess... (I am a bit of a noob with reviewing, so yeah...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darj Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 I find amusing how it synergizes with Allure of Darkness to generate a plus. You could even make it Level7 so it can banished by Sword of Seven Stars.I wonder why you went for a "with a different name" clause instead of "except "Prophet Magician"" for the searching effect. That aside, a Level6 with a self-summoning effect seems cute for Synchro or Rank6 plays, and the other effect turning it into a 3000-ATK beater should be handy for dealing with opposing threats, but overall it is not too impressive IMO since it's limited to odd niches, specifically DARK Spellcaster decks with some Tuners and/or Level6s, and I may be missing some decks but at the moment I cannot think of any unless you build a deck around this card; the closest that comes to mind is Shaddolls, but other than going for a Synchro with Falco they have little uses for this. Actually, I think making it Level7 would work on her favor by turning it into a viable option in Dark Magician decks. As a minor OCG pick, AFAIK:increase this card's ATK by ---> this card gains X ATK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacause if I so much as try anything different, you immediately shun it down. Actually, I think making it Level7 would work on her favor by turning it into a viable option in Dark Magician decks. That's not why I made it like that. I based it a little more on Dark Magician Girl than I did Dark Magician. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darj Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Because if I so much as try anything different, you immediately shun it down. Lieeees!It's not that I shun down everything, but it's case by case: sometimes your cards go too far, other times they are lacking, and others you get them right. To further comment on this card, it should be alright. I forgot you could play it with Gold Sarcophagus for a search and then retrieve it later after 2 turns, so it can provide a bit of speed for decks with any kind of magicians, including the Pendulum Magicians. As for its Level, 7 seems to be more convenient for Rank7s with Dark Magician and the Level7 Pendulum Magicians, but on the other hand I can't tell if it being Level6 is what keeps it fair or otherwise in check; I guess someone with more experience with Odd-Eyes Magicians and/or neo-Dark Magician decks would know.

Sleepy Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 It has some nice synergy with Recurring Nightmare, making it a potential Rank 6 by itself.That sounds super sweet but I remember I have a Level 8 DARK Dragon used by Mizael in the anime that is also a 0 DEF with a self special summon effect, Recurring Nightmare, Trade-In, Allure of Darkness, it has potential as a speed engine, yet I am yet to find the right place for it to belong to. Your card reminds me a lot of it, but your card has more value to it just from the fact you can bump it up to 3k to take down stuff. Then Masked Chameleon can actually make use of this card iirc there was a Level 10 Synchro that didn't require 3 materials. I've seen the new Magician Girl cards in action and you could make Magi Magi with this and DMG, or that other Rank 6 that negates cards.Either way you'd still have access to Ebon via Ranking it up by its own effect. The searching effect will make Allure of Darkness and Gold Sarcophagus so good in Magician decks. That effect makes me wonder if this card should be on the casual wing of the section. It doesn't have a hard OPT clause so that could be an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darj Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 That Level10 Synchro is Leo, Keeper of the Sacred Tree. There is Ascension Sky Dragon too, but that one isn't as resilient as Leo. And I had forgotten about Norito as well, the negation Rank6 you refer to.The card being Level6 has really nice things going for it after all, IMO.
