Card Tips:Silent Magician LV4


 * Using "Level Up!" on "Silent Magician LV4" is a much quicker way to Summon "Silent Magician LV8", than using its own effect. A good combo is using "Shining Angel" to Special Summon "Silent Magician LV4" to the field, then using "Level Up!".


 * Due to "Silent Magician LV4" and "Silent Swordsman LV3" being monsters that can be Special Summoned by the effect of "Shining Angel", both "Silent" series are used in combination in a single deck. This is often referred as a "Silent Deck".


 * "Swords of Revealing Light" can prevent the opponent from attacking, while "Silent Magician LV4" gains a higher ATK from its Spell Counters.


 * "Pitch-Black Power Stone", "Apprentice Magician" and "Tempest Magician" can place Spell Counters directly on "Silent Magician LV4". "Chainsaw Insect", "Dark Bribe", "Hand Destruction", "Morphing Jar" and "The Bistro Butcher" can be used to make your opponent draw cards.


 * Some cards that you can use to help keep your opponent off balance while strengthening "Silent Magician" are "Bubble Crash", "Energy Drain", and "Secret Barrel".


 * To get 5 counters on this card immediately use Card Destruction to force your opponent to draw 5 cards.


 * Combine this card with Secret Village of the Spellcasters sence its a spellcaster your opponent wont be able to activate any spell cards and once it has five spell counters on it it will be equall to Silent Magician LV8 only you wont have to hassel with the summoning requirements (especially if its level 8 form is in the graveyard or removed from play).


 * This card works great with Mage Knight Defender as the spell counters on it will supply it plenty to use it defense effect and when your opponent draws a new card it will regain spell counters.


 * This card works well with Tempest Magician as it can add most of the counters instantly, or if it has five spell counters on it already you can deal your opponent an instant 2500 life point damage then replenish them.


 * This card, combined with DNA Transplant, works well with Shadow Delver, especially when loaded with counters.
