Card Tips:Sorcerer of Dark Magic


 * Summon a Spellcaster and attack, activate "Magician's Circle", Special Summon "Dark Magician Girl", activate "Sage's Stone" to special summon "Dark Magician", then Tribute both to summon "Sorcerer of Dark Magic" in one turn.


 * For one way to pull this monster on the first turn you must have "Peten the Dark Clown" in your hand and find a way to discard it. ("Peten the Dark Clown"'s trip to the Graveyard has to be the last thing to happen or you'll miss the timing). Then use "Peten's" effect to special summon a second one, and tribute it to summon a "Dark Magician Girl". Now use the Spell "Sage's Stone" to special summon a "Dark Magician", then tribute both to summon "Sorcerer of Dark Magic" in the first turn.


 * In Traditional Format, Summon "Magical Scientist" and use its effect to special summon 2 "Sanwitches", then tribute them to easily special summon "Sorcerer of Dark Magic".


 * It's possible to use "Magician's Circle" to also summon a variety of other Level 6 Spellcasters, such as "Mind on Air", "Neo Aqua Madoor", "Great Dezard" and "Dark Red Enchanter", or even "Allure Queen LV7".
 * "Mind on Air" and "Allure Queen LV7" can be also special summoned easily with "Mystic Tomato".
 * "Neo Aqua Madoor can also be special summoned with "Mother Grizzly".


 * Use this cards effect in combination with Spell negating cards such as "Horus the Black Flame Dragon LV8", or preferably "Dark Paladin", since you must tribute Spellcasters, and are probably running it in a Spellcaster deck. You can also use an effect negating card, like "Destiny Hero - Plasma".


 * Use "Sorcerer of Dark Magic" and "Secret Village of the Spellcasters" together to jam all of your opponent's Spell and Trap cards.


 * Note that "Sorcerer of Dark Magic" cannot negate Counter Trap Cards. Because of this, if your opponent controlled a "Sorcerer of Dark Magic", you could activate a trap, and if your opponent tried to negate it with the Sorcerer, you can destroy it with "Divine Wrath".


 * This card works well with "Fortune Ladies", as they can easily swarm the field, and their levels can reach 6 quickly. "Fortune Lady Water" works exceptionally well for this role, as your opponent might not want them to return to your graveyard so quickly, knowing they might be special summoned back.


 * Special summon "Chaos Sorcerer" with its effect then use "Magical Dimension" while having 1 monster to tribute and Special Summon 1 Spellcaster-Type monster from your hand, like "Neo Aqua Madoor " or "Chaos Command Magician".


 * You can also use the benefits of a Synchro Summon. After Synchro Summoning "Arcanite Magician", you can use cards like "The Shallow Grave" to bring back a level 6 or higher Spellcaster-Type monster, or a low level Spellcaster Monster and then activate "Magical Dimension" to bring a high level Spellcaster.


 * You can use "Foolish Burial" to get "Sorcerer of Dark Magic" in the Graveyard, then recover it using the effect of "Herald of Creation".
 * If you do this, you can discard a "Dark Magician Girl", then Special Summon it from the Graveyard and activate "Sage's Stone" to special summon "Dark Magician", then tribute both to summon "Sorcerer of Dark Magic" in one turn.
 * You can also Special Summon any other level 6 or higher Spellcaster monsters with "The Shallow Grave", and then Special Summon "Chaos Sorcerer" with its effect and have 2 Level 6 or higher Spellcaster-Type Monsters to summon "Sorcerer of Dark Magic".
