A True Illusionist - Dark Magician Deck

[Khina Bree]

"Only a true master of illusions deserves to hold a Dark Magician. You will never understand its full potential."

Hello everyone, Spensyr here. As you all know, or should, by now . . . "The Dark Illusion" is the set coming out after "Shining Victories," and it introduces the new "Dark Magician" support. Thanks to Demon and Zaio, I've come up with a new build for my Magician that I think its good enough.

So without further adieu...

Seeing this up close and personal in combat
I could not help but be extemely satsified abouts it
The og Magician kicking some serious ass
The Master of Magicians is back
Extemely powerful levels capable of combating the meta just fine too.

Considerations:
Possibly running a third Navigate in place of Legion or Renewal.

Considering a third Magician of Black Illusions. Unsure of what to replace however.

Sacred Sword of Seven Stars. Possibly 2 of this but again, uncertain.

==========
The biggest issue seems to be speed. At times the deck flows beautiful and smoothly. Other times it feels like a newly hatched Magikarp.

Holy shit. This is exactly how I feel about my Buster Bladers. Couldn't have put it better myself.

The extra Sacred Swords seems like a good idea. That is if you can use it right. Always preferably juggle around two Dark Magicians me thinks. But, if you're adding that 3rd Magician of Black Illusions, the 2nd Extra Swords will work just fine.
Maybe run an extra Rod instead of Jester I'd suggest? But you should probably replace Jester for either a trap to save your life with or something to increase your consistency. Navigate is a good idea in that case as you already put it.
You can even replace your Bottomless for something if it comes down it, really is what me thinks.
Have you considered adding some rank3s into the deck instead of tthem rank4 placeholders? Lel.

With Kuribandit included i believe its a good idea to include Soul charge once again to see where it would go with the dark burning magic combo

[Khina Bree]

Yeah I already have 3 copies of Rod. Robe doesn't see as much use sadly.

[Khina Bree]

Bump.

List updated.
