- Magicians' Force~
Flavor text from the aforementioned twin magicians forms the basis for the lore of this archetype. It is implied that the Magician of Stellar Insight and the Magician of Ancient Flame are siblings who both mastered the magical arts and contend with one anther in a sort of rivalry. Despite this rivalry, it is never suggested that either of the two monsters fights on the side of darkness based on any other cards. For example, the Spell Card "For a Tomorrow Without Tears" depicts a slew of monsters fighting for the side of light and includes both Magicians in the imagery. Some fans speculate that the Magicians assist these 'good' monsters within the lore, but are mainly focused on their own arcane pursuits, which is why depictions of them in group card art are somewhat rare. Other cards from the archetype establish confirmed lore. Magician's Apprentice is stated on numerous occasions across multiple cards to be a student studying under one of the two, though there isn't any evidence to suggest which one of them is actually her teacher. As a result, most lore enthusiast conclude that she is learning magic from both of them. Magician's Crusader and Magician's Valkyria are both cards that are somewhat combat-like in nature. It's suggested that these two joined the Magicians later in their quest for some reason or another, and act as a sort of body guard or spell assistant for the siblings.
Duelists who utilize the archetype are relatively uncommon. The Magician of Stellar Insight and the Magician of Ancient Flame are both classed as Ultra Rare cards, so the difficulty of getting the cornerstone of the deck makes it difficult for some to pick up the archetype. Those who do make use of this archetype often couple it with other spellcaster-type monsters in order to make the most of the various abilities associated with this typing. Other combinations are possible with the second most popular being the coupling with warrior-type monsters. The most famous wielder of this archetype, Karina Arden, uniquely couples the magicians with the fiend-type Kuriboh.
