Nope, because "your" means own and control.  If you band in their magician, you control it, but you still don't own it.

actually, 'your' means possession and control. does possession = own? there is no definition for possession in the REG.

Quote from: REG
Your
Several cards in Redemption® refer to cards that are “your” cards (e.g., your Priest, your Heroes, your demons, your warrior-class Evil Character, ). The possession and control of a card is implied by the use of the word “your”.

Yes, 'possession' (as in, the card is legally your possession) = 'own'.
Thus, 'your' = 'own' + 'control'.

Be sure to read this thread on the Magic Charms issue.

Even though you can't use it, it's still a wise play because then your opponent can't use it either (seeing as they don't control the Magician). ;)

I would say it's a wise move just because then you're making a very powerful character (their MC endowed magician) vulnerable to discard by your opponent.
Press 1 for more options.

That is true as well. There are lots of good reasons for stealing their Magician with MC.
