For any casual deck, if you play black, four of these go in. It will increase the odds of getting the card you need NOW. No matter what the card you need is, if you draw this, you got what you need, whether it be mana, combo card, removal, or any thing else, this card gets you what you need, for a low price.

Arguably one of the most powerful card ever printed !

  -- By Sylvanhor from France on May 21, 2010

Simple. Effective. Cheap. Best in combo decks, obviously, but it can work if any deck needs to draw a particular card in a given situation.

Wow .. I mean, look at all the positive reviews xD This card is probably one of the all-time greatest black cards ever. It can find anything you need, and its manacost just screams BROKEN. If you're running black, or even just splashing black in your deck, you should really consider at least 1 copy of this.

Demonic tutor is a sorcery the scepter is only for instances. You can use Panoptic Mirror though but i cost 5 to cast! please read the cards clearly. Ive read of so many people using sorceries on Isochron.

Five stars. bravo

WOW! i love this card i use 4 of these and 4 scepters each turn for 3 mana i get to search my deck for any card no questions asked

I have seen a summer print of this card and it is worth way more than they are stating here due to the fact that it does not have the pentagram on the forehead! A lot of the summer prints came to Ireland and a friend of mine by chance bought a whole box and subsequently i have come to own some, the colour of these cards is fantastic

Vampiric Tutor is better if you absolutely must have as speedy a deck as possible, but Demonic Tutor is better in any other situation. And a copy from the Revised set is cheaper, too. 5 stars!

  -- By Will B. Staples from Springfield, MA USA on April 04, 2008

awsome card. kicks ass. this can get black lotus or any of the power nine out quickly if you dont already have it

Actually the cheapest tutor is Vampiric Tutor from Visions, which is 1 mana. However, Vampiric, you must put on top of your deck and pay 2 life. It is obviously inferior to Demonic.

A great card, but certainly not in the top 10 and certainly not the best. WMS, Lotus, all 5 moxen, Library, Time Walk, Timetwister, ancestral recall, and Yawgmoth's will are all far superior to this card.

ANYONE WHO PLAYS BLACK HAS TO HAVE THAT IN THEIR COLLECTION!

  -- By CLAUDEKORN from LAFONTAINE,QC,CANADA on February 17, 2004

Best black rare ever printed.

  -- By Tom Nelson from Minneapolis, MN on February 10, 2003

I've been playing since 1993, and still to this day use this card. Without a doubt, anytime you can search your library and put any card in your hand rules.

  -- By Rick from Pittsburgh on January 30, 2003

I agree with all of you it is the most power hungry card out there. And can easily change the tides of the battle. If any of you have heard of Cameron from Spirit Lake and you want to keep your dignity as a good duelist. Stay away from him. I have won many tournaments and I was undefeated until he came to my school and he beat without me taking out any of his life. I am ashamed but listen to me and dont challenge him.

  -- By Magic Master from spiritlake id usa on December 15, 2002

unfortunately too strong to play :( (only one copy in type 1)

  -- By louckal from Kromeriz, CZE on November 16, 2002

Some people say this is the strongest card ever. I say it's exellent. Another one of those crazy good uncommons from the good old days.

  -- By tom cadden from Glasgow, Scotland on June 01, 2002

this card is one of the best cards out there if you need a card you got this to help you out and it goes into your hand and if you have a jet medallion out in play it is only one mana it is the sweetest card made

  -- By karas from buffalo new york on April 02, 2002

this card is awsome to either get ahead stard in the game or get your most powerful card out to finish your opponent!

  -- By Kyle Brewer from Plainfield, CT USA on March 19, 2002

Easily one of the top 10 Magic cards ever printed, no question. 2 for any card in your library is way too good.

  -- By Andrew L. from Canada on March 17, 2002

Demonic Tutor is the best Magic card ever!And with an Anarcist you can play it over and over

  -- By Danniel DeLorme from Beatty OR USA on February 18, 2002

Demonic Tutor is one of the best MTG cards ever,it is the best tutor of them all,its casting cost is the least(to my knoledge) a very good card for a deck,even better with a Black Deck

  -- By RatBoy194 from Michagan on January 12, 2002

if you need mana at the start to get your deck going, or the final blow at the end to knock your oppenent out, demonic tutor is always a great draw. One of the 20 best magic cards ever created!
