Prophecy Destroyer closes out the week, and wins the
award for "I'm clearly a Fiend but classified as a
Spellcaster because of my effect." We have a Level
6, Dark attributed Spellcaster, with 2500 attack (so
even if it were a Tribute isn't bad, although it
won't ever likely be) but a defense equal to
Summoned Skull at 1200. Dark is obviously Chaos
food, and he can Special Summon himself from the
Graveyard if you remove three Spellbook Magic cards
from your Graveyard. I'd probably tech one in my
Spellbook Deck, but no more. You're not going to
break a game open with him, but it's not going to
hurt to use one I think.

Prophecy Destroyer has some possibilities. High
Priestess is the boss monster of choice in a
Prophecy deck as it has a higher attack and can get
rid of your opponent’s threats, but in the right
situation, Prophecy Destroyer can be the better
option. If you have a lot of Spellbooks in your
graveyard and you need a monster with staying power,
searching for the Destroyer with Temperance of
Prophecy instead of High Priestess could be the best
option as the Priestess can only destroy once per
turn. Running one Destroyer in your deck could be
advantageous. It is ironic that the Prophecy monster
that does not destroy is called destroyer though.
Don’t you think?

Today's card is one of the best card artworks in
the game, but is Prophecy Destroyer just as awesome
as his card art? A level 6 DARK/Spellcaster-type
with 2500 ATK and 1200 DEF.
If this card is in your graveyard: You can banish 3
Spellbook spell cards from your grave; Special
Summon this card from your graveyard.
This card has pretty ok stats for a Level 6
DARK/Spellcaster. Its ATK can get over a lot, being
a Spellcaster means all the goodies Destroyer gets
just for being one, such as Magical Dimension and
other tricks. Being DARK means one half of the
Chaos equation so that's good there. His graveyard
summoning conditions are not the best. Banishing 3
Spellbook cards from your grave without a real way
to get them back *Until Spellbook of Alma is
released*. He can get to the field a number of other
ways, but I woulnd't use his GY one. Also, if you
are looking for big Spellcaster monsters, High
Priestess is usually the way to go here. If he had a
better effect, then i would give Destroyer a better
score. Other than that, he's just a very cool
looking beatstick.
