Pros

  • Negates Trap cards during either player’s turn, this effect can be used multiple times during the same turn.
  • Powerful ATK and DEF stats.

Cons

  • Challenging Summon conditions.

Tips

  • Although powerful in negating Trap effects, this monster can be very hard to Special Summon in the fast paced meta.
  • This monster is still susceptible to Spell effects, therefore it might be wise to include Silent Magician, for example for additional Spell negation.

Spellbook Method

Reaper of Prophecy can Special Summon level 5 or higher Spellcaster-type monster from your Deck if you have 5 or more Spellbook Spell cards in your Graveyard, therefore you should have 2 level 6 or higher Spellcaster-type monsters ready to Special Summon Sorcerer of Dark Magic. Prophecy Destroyer can be Special Summoned from the Graveyard instead, by banishing 3 Spellbook Spell cards, to fill in the quota, or it can be Special Summoned via Reaper of Prophecy’s effect from your Deck, and after tributing it to Special Summon Sorcerer of Dark Magic, you can Special Summon Prophecy Destroyer from your Graveyard, by banishing 3 Spellbook Spell cards.

Dark Magician Girl Method

If you control Dark Magician Girl on the Field, you can use Sage's Stone to Special Summon Dark Magician from your Deck, together they make 2 level 6 or higher Spellcaster-type monsters, ready to use for Special Summon Sorcerer of Dark Magic. Alternatively, if Dark Magician is in your Graveyard, you can use Swing of Memories to Special Summon it to the Field to be used as 1 of the Tributes.

Did anyone test summoning him in a Magical Something Deck?

I've tested this and it DOES work, albeit a slow method to summon.

Whelp, I don't think this card was meant to be summoned quickly anyway.

I have him him in my Dark Paladin deck and he works great for farming. If you have Fusion Recycling Plant, it makes it easy to summon 3 Dark Paladins along with having throw away cards to negate magic cards. Then I sacrifice 2 Dark Paladins to bring this guy out. Now you control all magic & trap card activations while leaving a monster slot open for gravekeeper’s vassal to deal the 10k blow

This card should have an animation :-(

If Duel Links would release Jinzo which is way easier to summon and has more support this card would be not even worth mentioning at all

When is it actually? Right, a few months or maybe a few years frow now. And ppl will keep complaining about Wall of D or Mirror Wall till then
PK
Great card to have against all the walls of disruptions, mirror walls, floodgate etc. Just a pain in the 🔥 to summon.

Is this card limited to only negating and destroying 1 trap card per turn? Like if opponent has both Mirror Wall and Michizure, can this negate and destroy both of the cards?

Yes it's the same effect Horus has only for Traps.

It is NOT limited to just negating 1 trap per turn. It can negate as many as you want.

Something magic can raise it's level when spell cards are used. Just have to use 2 spell cards and it's level 6.

Legion + DMG + Sage's Stone = Turn 1 Summon

idk what you guys are talking about ? you play Legion you summon DMGirl you play sage stone you get Dark Magician, once you have both DM and DMG on the filed you special summon SODM. what are yous not understanding ? Yugi basically did this in the show.

still really hard to meet summoning conditions for a monster with an effect that isn't worth it at all

You can say it again when you deal with opponent using 3 wall, 3 orb or maybe 3 michizure.

Negating traps isn't a good enough effect for something that requires such a hard to meet condition to be summoned. If you're playing a DM deck with this card, you are just wasting resources for this, which will be a dead draw in almost every scenario, instead of a card that actually has value in Champion's Vigilance. Cards like Econ, OtC, and Super Rush Headlong are much more common anyways

Too much requirements to summon. Why play this over, say, mirage dragon?

It negate and destroy.

If you're running a 3*DeMo DM deck you can include this one.
Other than that, I'd say leave it out.

Probably just a little too tricky to get on the field to be practical, but you could still pull it off with Sage's Stone or Magician's Circle in a 3SD deck.

Won't work, cause when you summon DMG using 3SD she became a 3* monster. You have to wait at least your next turn

It WILL work, just not all on the same turn, and that's just if you use 3SD. There are other combos like Jester + DMG + Sage's Stone that will enable him to be summoned immediately.
