Yes, they are. Back around the time when the game was first released, green bordered cards were called Magic Cards. However this term is actually a trademark belonging to Wizards of the Coast, publisher of Magic the Gathering. Since both products are a similar nature, this infringed on the trademark, so Konami changed Magic Card to Spell Card, then Magic Ruler to Spell Ruler.

In game terms, Magic Card and Spell Card are totally interchangable, different names for the same thing. If something instructs you to affect a Magic Card, it will apply to Spell Cards too, and vice versa.

Are 'De-Spell' 'Cursebreaker' and 'Magic Cancellation' in Yu-Gi-Oh the same cards?

'Magic Cancellation' is the literal Japanese name for the video game-only card known as Cursebreaker in English. Despite having an almost identical picture to the genuine spell card De-Spell, the two cards are not the same thing. De-Spell is a Normal Spell card that destroys one Spell Card on the field, Cursebreaker is a Quickplay that negates other spell card activations on the same chain.


Yugioh Can a quick play magic such as mystical space typhoon be used on a normal magic card suchas heavy storm or can a counter trap only be used against it?

Yes, but make sure the counter trap card says it can counter a magic card (or whatever else you want to counter). Same for quick play spell cards, but mystical space typhoon wouldn't work because mystical space typhoon only says that it destroys 1 spell or trap card on the field. It does NOT say that it negates the effect.

Is earthbound immortal wiraqocha rasca the most powerful Yugioh card?

It's ok, but its the worst earthbound immortal. It's somewhat weak for this reason: your opponent must have cards in their hand and you must have cards in your spell/trap zones (because you have to get rid of up to 3 spell/traps on your field, and your opponent loses the same amount of cards from their hand, but you cannot toss more cards than what is in your opponents hand. Rasca games 1000 attack x the number of cards you destroyed.)


Is yu-gi-oh still popular?

Yugioh has become less popular due to the fact that Konami has changed the whole story of yugioh 3 times. They should have left it the same with yugi and the pharoah. When the final duel came and left, yugioh popularity went with it. The cards are interesting but most people are not that interested in the whole yugioh game anymore because it is not the same anymore!

Quick-play Spell cards are Spell Speed 2, so are the same speed as all Trap cards except for Counter Trap cards which are Spell Speed 3.
