Magician

From Odd-Eyes to Performapals to Supreme Kings, the pendulum Magicians offer many routes to develop their theme, keeping your opponent guessing even once they see your initial cards. Magicians utilize pendulum summons to swarm monsters up to level seven, often employing "Mist Valley Apex Avian" and "Mythical Beast Jackal King" to negate opposing cards.

Like several series, Magicians tend to neglect traps, but they enjoy one of the best spell searches in the game, "Pendulum Call," which discards a unit (prepping your graveyard) to nab any two Magicians from your deck and shield your pendulum scales for a few turns. But that's just the tip of the iceberg—you can take your spellcasters in whichever direction you want, and their lengthy run among the top decks showcases their lasting power.
