Because the library does not show cards you have not owned, I am posting this so that other players can keep track of cards released as promos or special releases.

Since I haven't bought this card it probably isn't fair for me to comment on it but I will anyway, though so sorry if i offend anyone who bought this. This card is really OP and fall in the category of "pay to win." The concept of a purple card that reduces the CAP by 5 effectively means this card has a CAP=2 (7-5=2). Nice concept, hasn't been done before, I like how you're thinking, it's fresh, it's new. How strong then should this card be? Well in a perfectly balanced game this card would probably be as strong as a silver card, but comes in handy as it allows one extra cap space. However, it is an expensive card so I could see it playing like a gold card or even a diamond card also as an at most stretch. It's strength, however, seems to be that of a epic card. It does have a drawback of being a legend card as extra baggage so its susceptible to imprison and gathering storm more than a silver card would be. So I dont think it's fair for me to offer a solution here since I did not buy this, but I'm a prospective buyer and want to promote fair play and also financially support the game, so i do suggest an extra look at this card be worth doing. Also Im happy to see this cards price was marked down from 500 scrolls to 349. Even that number is really high so the end result is a card that one person owns. A lower cost of say 200 would be much better. Most likely is bought by 10 people or result in someone buying 2 of this card. You would probably make more money without introducing a card at such a high price that scares off many new free players from playing the game.

Being that at the moment I am the only person who owns this card (that I know of) I will agree the card is strong. However, when card first was introduced many said it was too weak and the extra cap limit wasn't worth the price. I however, felt the card had a lot of potential. I do not feel though that the card is any more "pay to play" than many other cards in the game (and let's understand that it is not the only expensive card or the most expensive in game). Nor is this card anywhere near as powerful as many other cards (and with recent update does even less damage against lower rank cards). It can be stopped by many traps, and easily destroyed by many cards including Santa who eats it up, Spector who ignores most of it's damage, godfather, unicorn and gathering storm that also destroy it quickly. The card is also a legend card so in itself takes up a huge portion in the deck cap. On top of all its weaknesses it would cost a fortune, not only in diamonds and rubies, but in currency as well to enhance the card past level 30. So strong legend card? Yes. Way too OP? I don't think so.
