Pros

  • Able to get Dark Magician support spell/trap cards from your deck.
  • Can return to your hand from the graveyard.

Cons

  • Needs to be normal summoned for its effect to activate.
  • Effect can only get the cards from the deck, which can be bad if you only have a few and get them in your starting hand.
  • Second effect requires a tribute of a spellcaster-type monster to return to your hand.

Tips

Monster or Spell/Trap removal

Magician's Rod gives you many options as to which one to take, and you get to decide which one you need for certain situations. This also helps with getting Dark Magic Attack more consistently, since you can only get 1 copy from Yami Yugi's level up reward.

Variances

While a Dark Magician turbo deck can already work well on its own, you can still play with its variances through these support cards. They have different playstyles that are useful in certain situations. Dedication through Light and Darkness can be used as a surprise during battle phase to get an extra attack, Sage's Stone can help with swarming the field, while Knight's Title can be good if your Dark Magician is locked or affected with a attack decreasing debuff.

Spellcaster tribute

You can use Magician's Rod's second effect to return it to your hand by tributing these monsters. They have effects that will activate in the graveyard, and will also help with searching a Dark Magician from your deck/graveyard.

why cant this card add “Eye of Timaeus” from the deck?
<< Anonymous(anon)

Yeah this is the problem with dark magician cards because dark magician is both a card and an archetype.Rod actually wants dark magician card itself for card's text but eye of timaeus mentions DM as an archetype in its text.

Could this be a hint that they are going to add more dark magician support soon?

Yeah, it could be a hint.

Like how we got 3 Mahjong Munia Maidens few events before Subterror is released.

MMM is not subterror card I know, but it works wonders for subterror.

Besides, both BEWD & REBD have received enough love already. DM deserved the same amount of love too.
