It's a powerful Stand with the ability to produce and manipulate fire in various ways. Magicians Red's signature ability is to freely generate and control fire.

Magician's Red is a part of the [[Rarity Tier List|Arrow Stand Pool]], in which it has a {{StandChance|B}} of obtaining from a [[Stand Arrow]]. This Stand also has a Festive Version, called Holiday's Cheer, which can be Obtained by using a [[Presents|Green Present]] while having a normal Magician's Red.

== Appearance ==
'''Magician's Red''' appears as a humanoid stand, with the difference being that its head has more of an appearance to the likes of a bird, more specifically a phoenix.

It possesses the look of a muscular upper body, with its arms and head covered in flames. Also, the stand possesses the look of a realistic-looking face (similar to [[Star Platinum]]), with a bright and large beak sticking out of the middle of its face.

The Stand is seen having yellow feet (similar to many types of birds), with fur covering its entire body except for its chest and back. '''Magician's Red''' focuses on the color schemes of red, orange, and yellow, befitting its name.  

In its Festive iteration, Holiday's Cheer undergoes color scheme modifications to distinguish it from the regular version, featuring a green hue for its feathers and head. Furthermore, the body of Holiday's Cheer is adorned with festive lights, similar to [[Star Platinum|Festive Star Platinum]] and [[The World|Festive The World]].

The shiny, Wizard's Azure appears the same as default Magicians Red just with a color scheme change, changing the red shown on the stand to blue, along with changing the color of the flames produced by the stand from red/orange to blue.

== Battle Strategies ==

=== '''General Combat Knowledge:''' ===
Magician's Red has one of the lowest durabilities in the game and it is imperative to the playstyle to avoid fighting opponents that are close-ranged. Magician's Red struggles a against stands that are also long-range because of the lack of health and spammable projectiles. It has a few close-ranged options but not many. It is completely reliant of Red Bind for close-ranged combat.

=== '''Combos:''' ===
* G + E '''Easy'''
* G + Y + H + F '''Hard'''
* R/T + F '''Easy'''
* G + R + T '''Easy'''
* G + R + E + T '''Easy/Medium'''
* R + C + T '''Easy'''
* F + H + Y''' Hard'''
* G + E + T '''Easy'''

=== '''Pros and Cons:''' ===
<div style="color:#7CFC00;">
===='''Pros:'''====
*Great damage output.
*The afterburn effect deals damage over time.
*Red Bind (G) disables your enemy, allowing for easy damage.
*Great range.
*Good moves to maintain distance.
*Burning bypasses Love Train.
</div>

<div style="color:#f55858;">
===='''Cons:'''====
* Low health, even though its durability is B. 
* Low combo potential, mostly relies on G.
* Requires good aim.
* Many of the moves have high cooldown.
* Projectiles can be hit or miss.
</div>

== Trivia ==
* The voice lines (N) are "''Yes sir!''" and "''YES! I AM!''".
* It used to have "''...*screech*...''" as a voice line, but it has been removed shortly after its release.
* This stand has both the slowest and fastest barrage in game, as it starts off slow but speeds up over time.
* Magician's Red and [[Purple Haze]] used to have the same pose.
* When killed you say, "''Damn you!''". This is one of the few stands that play audio when you die.
* This was included in the [[Easter Event]] in the form of an egg [[Cosmetics|Cosmetic]].
* When posing, the theme of Muhammad Avdol, [https://youtu.be/VRUnjCzgr9U Fire Shaman], will play.
* It has been said this stand will eventually get a remodel.
* Magician's Red originally had a Roll, but as of v3.0.2f, it has been changed to a  slide.
* The projectiles for some reason only hit when they have existed in the map for at least 3/4 seconds, otherwise, they will phase through the target, not dealing damage.
*The only ability currently in game to have a "Burn" effect. 
*On July 10th, 2023, Magician's Red underwent some updates to improve its gameplay. These changes involved making small adjustments to the keybinds, reducing cooldown times, and completely revamping the Crossfire Hurricane Special Move.
*During the [[Events|2023 Christmas event]], Magician's Red received a Festive version, along side [[Mr. President]].
