Spellcasters usually represent beings that control magic or some other mystical 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", "Thousand-Eyes Restrict", "Witch of the Black Forest", and "Magical Scientist".
A high proportion of Spellcaster monsters are either LIGHT or DARK. Spellcasters are often the most prolific users of Spell Counters
Archetypes include the Exodia cards, Gravekeeper's, Dark Magician-related cards, the Charmers and their counterparts, and Pikeru and Curran-related cards. Spellcaster-Type LV Monsters include Allure Queen and Silent Magician.
They also have two of their own Structure Decks, Spellcaster's Judgment and the newest Structure Deck, Lord of the Magicians, which is currently only released in the OCG. Its TCG counterpart is Spellcaster's Commmand, set to be released in March 2009.
