Well, today was my pick, and its no surprise to those of you who
know me how important this lil lady is to me... Is she not beautiful?
This card is absolutely amazing! Back in the day when I was ranked
among the top 50 duelists in the world, I think its safe to say half
the reason was because of my skill/deckbuilding, and the other half
was because I ran 3 of this card. No, I'm not exagerating. This card
is THAT good.... I can't tell you how many times i recycled Raigeki,
or Pot of Greed, or change of heart..... WAAAAAY to many to count.
Other players wondered why I ran 3.... If anyone remembers long enough
ago, there were 6 magical cards, we called them the 6 staples,
that no deck went without... Raigeki, Dark hole, Pot of Greed, Change
of Heart, and Monster Reborn, and Harpies feather duster.... Not to
mention heavy storm also amazing..... Now looking at those cards, all
of which were banned except heavy storm, what kind of card are they?
Magic Card! What does Magician of Faith recycle? Magic cards! (Its
interesting to note lob is regarded as a bad set, yet all of the 6
staples barring change of heart originated here) The point is, with
that many broken magic cards, running 3x of these made your deck
twice as powerful, if not more!
Now.... Times have changed quite a bit haven't they? All 6 of the
aforementioned staples have been banned... To make matters worse, in
this rotation 2x nobleman of cross outs are allowed, which creme my
poor magician... Does it change how I feel about her? Hell no! Not
nearly as powerful as she once was, and no longer a monster staple
by any means, This card still annihilates the meta.... Outside of GK
decks, I'm ashamed of you if you do not at least run 1, or try running
one... Get back that graceful charity, swords, smashing ground,
heavy storm.... Go on.... Try it....! Oh yeah, for those of you
running sorcerers, One of the absolute best chaos food monsters to
feast on, since once she had done her thing, you might as well remove
her, and she has no physical power to be special summoned to the
field and made useful.... She promotes good card advantage, having
this attacked is often far better then having a dekochi attacked...
All in all, just try this card out, no matter what kind of deck
your running (unless its GK, then don't be stupid)...

This little spellcaster seems to play quite a big role in today's
game. She has so many different possibilities. Looking at the actual
stats won't get you very far. You must look deeper within the soul of
this card, for the true power lies within her special effect. With a
mere flip of this monster, you get to retrieve a spell card from your
graveyard. The reuse of a previous spell could prove very useful in
late-game competition.
This little lady has another hidden power that lies within her
attribute. Being a light-attribute monster brings major potential,
espeically if used in a chaos deck. Having this monster in the graveyard
is half of the summoning requirement for the much more powerful Chaos
Sorcerer. Also if Magician of Faith was searched out by her good
companion Apprentice Magician, there's the full requirement to bust
out the mighty Chaos Mage. Choas holds a mandatory placement for this
little lady, but she can also serve in many other themed (and even
non-themed) purposes. Being a Spellcaster brings another plus. Even
in a non-themed deck, add in this monster for the well-earned
potential for a previously used spell card.
All these advantages seem pretty darn worth using her for. Just be
careful with the now semi-limited Nobleman of Crossout floating
around within what seems to be every deck made. This mage has a strong
power, but that power can only be used after she has been set
face-down on the field. Placing her face-down leaves her easy
prey for the mighty Crossout.

what we have is a flip effect monster that lets you reuse any
spell card. LIKE WOAH, sexy card. however, it has weaknesses.
it's a flip, which means you have to wait a turn, by then it
might be too late, or possibly it'll get NoC and that will result
in both of them that you should be running to removed. Also Blade
Knight, an under rated card, that should go into many decks, yet
many don't have it in there, but that's for a different review.
HaDes and any fiend stop it. but it's considered a staple by many,
and rightfully so.
4.2/5
