Dark Magic Twin Burst is a normal spell card from Yu-Gi-Oh!. The card’s name and artwork represents its archetype. Dark Magic Twin Burst supports Dark Magician. The card’s singular effects require Dark Magician and Dark Magician Girl.

Effect:

Dark Magic Twin Burst adds the ATK of each Dark Magician Girl on the field and in the graveyard to Dark Magician until the end of the turn. This spell’s effect provides a burst of offense. Dark Magician Girl has 2,000 ATK, and this is a large amount of ATK to add to any monster. Dark magician gains large amount of ATK from a single effect. You have a powerful spellcaster for the turn.

For instance, Dark Magician’s ATK becomes 6,500 with two copies of Dark Magician Girl in the graveyard. You have a great opportunity to deliver a massive amount of damage. Dark Magician with this amount of ATK can destroy nearly any monster in the game.

Setup:

Dark Magic Twin Burst needs Dark Magician Girl on the field or in the graveyard for it to be an effective card. You also want to use Dark Magician Girl for her value when you have her. The Eye of Timaeus is a great card to use your monster for this setup.

The Eye of Timaeus and Dark Magician Girl create powerful fusion monsters. These cards send Dark Magician Girl to the graveyard. The setup is ready for your spell card. Dark Magician Twin Burst would have at least one copy of Dark Magician Girl in the graveyard.

Weakness:

However, Dark Magic Twin Burst does not provide any advantages in terms of resources. You are gambling the large amount of ATK. An opponent can negate the attack from the Dark Magician or simply destroy the Dark Magician before you declare an attack.

Support:

Spellbook of Wisdom is a great card to play with Dark Magic Twin Burst. Spellbook of Wisdom protects spellcasters from spells or traps. You can protect the Dark Magician after he gains the additional ATK from Dark Magic Twin Burst. This protection allows you to safely declare an attack.

Card Rating:

Overall, Dark Magic Twin Burst provides a high reward with its offensive effect. Dark Magician’s ATK can rise to high levels with two or three copies of Dark Magician Girl in the graveyard. However, this spell card only offers offense. It is only useful in the middle to late stages of a game. I only recommend Dark Magic Twin Burst in casual decks.
