Doomcaliber knight is a pretty usefull card in this format. you forgot to mention 1 of the most popular decks where doom caliber is the big boss tho, and thats Doom Gadgets. Many Players think doom caliber knight is not that good cuz it can block your strategies and slow you down, but thats absolutly wrong.

Doomcaliber Knight will stay on the field maximum 3 turns, i never saw one DCK stays on the field more longuer than that and if he stays on the field more thant it, it means you have the control of the duel. eveyone use effects and this monster will go to hell soon enough XD but before going to hell he will protect you from a threat like Ryko can be or even stop gorz if your going for an OTK.

thx for the review Ray
