Should errata this card for duel links so cosmic cyclone and magical space typhoon doesn’t cuck it during its activation. A one for one loss is only fair otherwise dark magician dragon knight is fair to release.
Not KoG
Dark Magic Curtain is F2P equivalent.
Not KoG
3x means 1 brickless deck.

You can only each effect once per turn..
Does that mean you can search dark magician monster/spell next turn after its activation?

you can banish 1 card once per turn. the first effect applies only for activation. maximize banish effect, navigation our end turn then summon dark cavalry, activate dark magician (that 2100 attack) effect, special summon dark magician from Grave

No you cannot activate two different Сircles in one turn if you have two copies in your hand. And you can banish as many times as many Dark magicians you summon to the field

Do you guys think this card will still be used in a future optimal dark magician deck if we get apprentice illusion magic or secrets of dark magic?

Yes, this will keep seeing play.

The only card I think could be used at less copies is navigation, if konami releases eternal soul

this card is broken af. combine with magicians wand and navigation, boom, you win. but ofc konami want to suck some money first before they nerf it in honor to the new (2021) blue eyes deck

This card and magician navigation need to be banned straight away. If the one that goes second doesn't draw a card with backrow removal effect, it is then basically an automatic win to the one that goes first. The whole combo is just broken.

We had navigation for years in duel links and none used dm decks. If they limit it they will just 🔥 the deck. Circle is what makes dm competitive. And atm are not even tiered.

3 Circles, 3 Navi, Kycoo everything standard. Even with a perfect start, this was not enough in most duels.
When I managed to summon the purple horse it was a little better, but my Magicians rarely survived before I draw the spell

Maye you should have had 3 cards to summon purple horse in this case.

This card needs to be limited. In the KC cup I faced 4 DM decks back to back & a lot of them had a least 2. The DM decks stopped me from getting to stage 2

Well dm suffer from the same major drawback as the old desperado decks. Target immunity. Once your oppenent realise is facing a dm deck he will assap summon a sabredancer, cocytus, es lapauila etc. leaving you hoping to draw eye of timeus or dm expanded, if you run them. Also, lightsworn variants force you to use navigation in the main phase to stop lumina-brd, leaving dm helpless in battle phase.

I think you got a misconception about being bricky.
From your explanation, DM had a hard time to face certain archtype. And thats normal for deck to have a natural weakness. However, being bricky means you cant do anything other than watching your opponent as you cant even play your card ( ex: blue eyes brick dragon). A deck with huge change for being bricky wont get tiered in the first place.

Blue-Eyes isn't always bricky, it depends on your build.

Why doesn't this card miss timing?

It's okay :)

The guy who misplayed against DMC would have known that it couldn't miss timing if he played with a DM deck before.

Not using a deck yourself means losing games you could have otherwise won against it by avoiding miss play.

That is why we are more skilled than you F2P.

This is actually easy. See if your opponent has 3 copies of the latest UR/SR, or those that come from different old boxes.
Alternatively if they have full meta deck of 3 very different archetypes.
