Good card.
Lower  :darkness cost,but shouldn't the upgraded version do like 75% of missing?

If that was true, I'd say it would be better than Dimmensional Shield.

this card sounds bad at first but when you think about it you can halve the damage of a full field of fireflies permantently (not just 3 turns like dim shield :P)
Diashield can even block all the damage vs unupped Fireflies and 75% vs upped Fireflies.
Even if really 50% of Creatures hit, the damage will not be halved considering that there are mostly  strong and less strong hitters on the field. Maybe you have a Lava Golem with 23damage and a Photon with 1 damage. If the Photon hit, but the Golem not your damage is almost completely blocked although you blocked only 50% of the attacks.
cute shiny  Photons :))

I hate this Shield in such a way I started counting hits....
Its almost every time way above 50% about 60-70% and its annoying...
I dont even want imagine what happens with an Improved Dusk (75%).

Yeah, it might not be 50% as it says. A while ago I had a PvP with Terro, and both of our Dusks are making us miss like 80% of the time. This doesn't have anything to do with Murphy's Law (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murphy%27s_law) because it's missing for both of us.
To be or not to be, I can do both at once. Go learn quantum mechanics, n00b.

Today during the war, Dusk decided to block 90% of my attacks =(. Just change the number on the card, we all know its a lie!

You keep saying this but when you had 3 phoenix out 33% hit then when you had 5 out 2 hit 40% so your average there is more like 73% so stop going round saying everyone 90% of your attack were blocked when it was fairly less.

Oh come on Mini, I'm just trying to vent where it wouldn't seem like i'm complaining and you found me! Obviously 90% didn't get blocked, there were probably not even 10 attacks to base that statistic, 90% is an exageration meant to state that it is more than 50%. Thats all, no offense meant you won the game fair and square

At least I am not the only one thinking that, but why is that so? Is there something wrong in the coding?

It's certainly saved me for enough turns to win.

This is one of my favorite shields in the game. It doesn't care if the creature is pint sized or a powerful dragon. 50% is a lot! It has saved me from many games and will save a lot of yours.
