Another card I recently found and I have been curious as to what people think of it. I use it in my Dark World deck to try and keep the number of cards in my opponents hand closer to mine. Unfortunately it needs to be destroyed by battle for its effect to work so it is unlikely he'll be in my deck for long. I can't help but feel this card is UP with too many limiting aspects. If it didn't have so many limits it would be a great card.

Is not a good beatstick.
It must be destroyed by battle.
Your opponent can take advantage of the discard.
Your opponent can decide not to conduct Battle Phase.

I remember this was the very newest pack when I started playing. I used to think the cardpool of the game and each pack was a lot bigger than what it actually is nowadays, and that the cover card was a sort of "secret" boss that would be very awesome to have. And rainbows and stuff....
Plus, I always liked that art and name. Poet of Hell.
When I actually saw it IRL for the first time, I wanted to trade for it so badly xD and the game was slow enough to make this work, at least at the casual level of Middle School kids playing during lunch time.

The card is stored in a BLS tin where I once got an Japanese Ultimate Rare CED-EotE. Getting dust.
I'll use it for a Marik day someday out of nostalgia if my opponent happens to build something equally low.

The only BIG fault is that it is level 5 and must be destroyed by battle. If it were level four or just had to be sent to the graveyard it would be pretty badass. Unfortunately that is not the case which leaves this card now removed from my deck just because I was questioning the logic of using it anyway. If only they hadn't made it so hard to use, the effect would be very beneficial.
