Guys, you are killing me! For the last time: If you think Retaliation Abygale has any draw power, you're making a naive fallacy. It's like when you give someone 10 Dollars, then he gives you 10 Dollars, too, and both of you expect to have more money than before.

As for Doo Bie, yes, he doesn't work on your first turn, but then you just use it on your second turn and of course it is a good idea to have backup, but Retaliation won't do the trick because of the reason above. My advise would be to wait until the opponent attacks your monster and then use Black Ritual.

About the matter of your start hand. If you get a bad start hand so often, a replacement engine becomes neccessary, i'd rather say you need to rethink your deck. Same goes for the Impact. Yes, there may be times you won't have one, but since the whole deck idea revolves around that card, those times should be really rare or your deck is crap. And the few times you really are that unlucky, a good deck will make a stand without it (and/or Doo Bie).
