Amusingly enough he turned up in today's Bakura event but obviously once again as a cutscene NPC. Getting some use out of that sprite though. Shame about him not being playable still though.
I think we will get him next year.
Last year Duke Devlin (DM) and Supreme King (GX)
This year Bakura (DSOD) and Jim Crocodile (GX)
Next year Marik (DM) and Atticus (GX)
It's probably hopium, but I do wonder if all the Egyptian God support released in recent years being absent from Duel Links is maybe because they're holding them for Marik.
The best support god cards (and earthbound immortals too) could get is to have 3 copies of each, I know they are kept as one for lore reasons but I think a better homage to those cards would be make them playable and not just cards collecting dust in your inventory
