Attribute: LIGHT
Monster Type(s): Spellcaster / Synchro
Effect: 1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner Spellcaster-Type monsters
When this card is Synchro Summoned, you can add 2 Spell Counters to this card. This card gains 800 ATK for each Spell Counter on it. Once per turn, while this card is in Attack Position, you can remove 2 Spell Counters from this card; destroy one card on your opponent's side of the field. If this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon "Arcanite Magician" from your Extra Deck (This Special Summon is treated as a Synchro Summon).
ATK/DEF: 400/1600

Make it not be treated as a synchro, otherwise this would be a deadly card in general. That magician doesn't need counters on itself for that effect to still proc.
