Well now, this certainly looks familiar doesn’t it?
YOS2-JP002 Shoukanjuu Magistus Therion / Invoked Magistus Omega
Level 8 DARK Beast Fusion Effect Monster
ATK/2800 DEF/2000
“Aleister the Invoker” + 1 Fusion, Synchro, Xyz, or Link Monster
You can only use the 1st and 2nd effect of this card’s name each once per turn.
(1) If this card is Special Summoned: You can target 1 Fusion, Synchro, Xyz, or Link Monster in your GY and 1 monster on the field; banish them.
(2) If this Fusion Summoned card is destroyed by battle or card effect: You can Special Summon 1 Level 4 Spellcaster monster from your Deck, then you can equip this card to it as an Equip Spell that gives it 1000 ATK.
Note: This card’s name appears to be a reference to Omega Summon (Magical Name – “To Mega Therion” in Japan). It is not part of the Therion theme (Therions in Japan).
Specifically, the real Aleister Crowley used this as an alias, as part of his shtick of being the “Most wicked man in the world”, as To Mega Therion means “The Great Beast”, another name used for The Beast of Revelation in the Bible.
The Beast from the bible itself is more likely a name attributed to the Roman Empire writ large but more specifically Emperor Nero, who was a major enemy of the Christian Church at the time Revelations was written.

This is the form Aleister/Crowley takes after using his body as a medium for activating Omega Summon in the OCG Stories Manga.

How exactly is this 1 card combo?
Ok that’s funny, you can use Magistus as Tea support.
why this card isn’t the defacto card to blend the deck well but instead just a sub decent target to summon
It’s better than “sub decent”.
Also, this card indicates they aren’t trying to blend both Decks. Not really. At least not right now. What they made here is a card that works in either individual Deck.
…
Normal Aleister, add Invo, link into Almiraj, link for Secure Guardna, Invo into this into any Magistus
One card into Magistus combo

One Card Combo:
You only need one card to start the combo.

AMAZING art bro, I can’t wait to learn more about its lore.

Kind of an underwhelming card. Banishing an ED monster from your GY to only banish monsters is weak, and the equipping being attached to floating is abrasive to Magistus’ strategy. In Invoked this is just a worse Augoeides. Seems like Konami is afraid of making the Aleister engine good again so they gimped this card which is incredibly lame but whatever.
To the doomers for this card:
If you go second with invoked it is a pivot to Magistus since you link Aleister into Artemis, invocation to banish from the opponent’s grave and aleister from yours, now the Artemis equips to Omega.
As for the floating effect, it would’ve been much better if it didn’t say this fusion summoned card, and it just let Endymion equip to self, then Endymion second eff pop it to summon from deck, but sadly it doesn’t. It still can be triggered by calamity GY effect. And is like the only bit of floating this archetype has so it’s not unappreciated.
This is significantly easier to summon than Augoeides.
Why do I feel like I’ve seen this artwork before?

Because this card is present in the alt art of the “invokation” card.
@World of Gems Ah, that’s what it was.
damn, was hoping to get Chorozo’s adult form as a card.
Great card though otherwise
Invoked Mr. Beast
So, this card’s name, Therion. Its a reference to a demon the real life Aleister Crowley claimed to have a contract with, Master Therion. Honestly, its surprising it took this long for Konami to make a card based on Master Therion.
Why does it look like the synchro from magikey?
LOL the tcg is never getting this card
What makes you so sure about that?
