    @DarkGate, I think others rares was given out the same way too .. like vampire stiletto .. I don't think it would be possible to anyone get like 8 vampire stilettos without this given rares floating around, also no ones know if ragorak2 was the only account doing that, also it is impossible to know for each one of the accounts if some rare in cause was given that way or not.

    If the spinning process changes like zanzarino said, then I agree with bigiowa22 that deleting and roll back randomly all the rares 1 per 150 won games would be a way of even things out without to have to downgrade rares

    (@bigiowa22, I don't agree that a solution will be deleting any rare over 2-3 because we really don't know how many different rares ragorak2 or others possible spam-rare accounts was actually given)

    In the meanwhile I like the way zanzarino is turning the crisis in to an somewhat experimental abundance of rares..
    Rare cards have been the subject of harsh comments since the beginnings of elements, I am just letting people enjoy abundance of rare cards for a while, before I put things back to the way it was before.
    .. I mean, with this abundance of rares we can see very nicely the balance issues it can arrive when the game got older (which at that age many will have a lot of "legit" rares)

    .. I can say that, when I saw those spawning Owl's everywhere I got crazy in setting a good counter deck (countering 6 Owl's is not easy .. but is possible..) .. i think I lose like 100-150 games on trying a way to defeat the Owl's decks AND the Fire decks AND the Aether-Dragon-copy decks without being one of them ... Gravity Shield is good against the first (because AI don't hit on his own Owl's to pass .. Gravity Shield is good against MorningStar too ..) Gravity Shield + gravity Dragons can somewhat hit the 1st and the 2nd and if you add Aether-Mark with those instant 5 damage plus some Oytugs you maybe can give away the 3rd type too .... after I gain Owl's I concluded that putting 6 Owl's on a 30-card-deck and relying mainly on them doesn't work properly... because of time reversal, freezes, Gravity-shields, direct damage, mutation, etc.. for vampire stiletto even worse because of the waisted blessings after a mutation or a reverse time...
    ok.. now you could think ... "ah.. but i have a 6 miracles + 6 morning stars deck" - imo it will not work - Dimensional Shield and/or Gravity Shield , and other cards to do damage or a simply long deck of 41 cards will win by discard

    so my conclusion (until now) is that the rares are doing accordingly to what a rare card are supposed to do on a deck - putting 1-4 of the same rare you got a strong deck, more than that is a waist if you are against a good deck - so I think is not so unbalanced after all...
