'''Spellcasters''' usually represent beings that control magic or some other magical force, such as witches and mages. While the Spellcaster type isn't well supported as a whole, the majority of these creatures contain effects and can be very versatile Monsters, used often with support of [[Spell Cards]]. Many of the most well-known and powerful monster cards are Spellcasters. Also, most of the currently [[Forbidden]] or [[Limited]] monster cards are Spellcasters, including "[[Dark Magician of Chaos]]", "[[Magician of Faith]]", "[[Chaos Sorcerer]]", "[[Thousand-Eyes Restrict]]", "[[Witch of the Black Forest]]", and "[[Magical Scientist]]".
