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.

Well, its RNG. I got my luckiest pull of my life for this 3 copy. Got first for 2nd 10 pull. Second with 1st 10 pull. Last with 4th 10 pull. 3.5k gems only

Yeah, that's pretty abnormal for an RNG.

I‘ve got the worst luck with pulling this card. I‘ve been playing with 2 copies of this and each came with just around 20 packs left. Now I went for the third and pulled every UR except two out of this box again.. guess who is missing? Right, that damn circle. Now i got 2 UR left on 80 packs...

Hi guys,
Funnily I always play Blue Eyes and never Dark Magician. Then when I open boxes I get lots of Ur & Sr DM cards but very few of BE ones.

If I knew that the pack openings were rigged against the archetype that has the most play time I would have been playing with something else than BE so that I can get the BE Spirit more easily.
Useful info, thanks

Some people are still learning what had been obvious from the very beginning? Took you some time to learn that the RNG is rigged man.

They don't have to limit a card to nerf it when they can release new cards that are 2 times more broken GG instead. Like a "Dark Magic Circle Advanced version" for 3x more profit.

I bet those 1100 gems only net you one copy of this card. Getting 3 copies is expensive, will definitely eat a ton of gems.

I couldn't chain maiden with eyes of blue to this effect, bug or why?

because everyone else ignored the question like an idiot.....

Did you use Maiden's other effect on the same turn? You can only use one of Maiden's effect per turn.
