Blackwings [DISC on Blackwing Archtype]


Recommended Posts

Discuss their place in the current meta. Also, you can talk about how many different variants there are and which is best etc. Also, discuss how many more blackwing decks we will see when GLD3 comes out and Vayu comes out in Super (there will definitely be at least 1 more, I am making them when GLD3 comes out).

They have their own Allure, a hell of an original card which turns to beatsticks, a card that litterally says "Special Summon 1 "Blackwing" monster from your Deck" and tons more, including a beatstick that can't be destroyed and has a built in instant-Reptilliane effect. <3

They don't see as much play in TCG due to the fanboys and fangirls playing Infernity decks, and because of the TCG exclusives that make other decks meta worthy. Blackwings are still tier 1 or at minimum tier 2, just wait for the hype to die down or for everyone and their grandma to main every anti-card for infernities and x-sabers its not even funny.

Terribly inconsistent. 1 less Whirlwind really made a difference. They are still good though, you just have to avoid 8-round+ tourneys unless you have some secret tech that actually makes up for the lack of the 3rd Whirlwind. Treasure doesn't help at all, but Pot of Awesome (or w/e the name was) probably will.

They are not actually all that inconsistent. Just dueled a guy with them (Kiryu's build) and they were great! 1 less Whirlwind does make a difference though. Pot of Duality do you mean?

That's because I run Doomcals in order to slow the pace of the game down to make up for the lack in Whirlwind, while adding speed with Morphing Jar.

Run at least 1 Caius in BWs' date=' some Rykos, and maybe spies.

 

Helps the deck tons.

I'm sorry, but, no it doesn't.

Jar is run in BW anyway (or it should be) because of the high chance of having no cards in the hand when it activates. Doomcals won me a duel actually. I had Bora on the field and my opp had 1200 LP left and a set JuJu Master. I summoned Doomcal and activated it when it attacked JuJu for game.

Caius is really amazing. Deck isn't explosive anymore, so you gotta play more conservative and play off card advantage. Icarus is more of a skillful card again, and you need to play it smarter.

 

Blackwings need to slow down the game, not speed up.

Blackwings actually take skill to play now. When it was DSF Wings (<3) it was just:

 

BORA BORA GALE GALE DSF DSF BLERGH BAWBAWBAW I WIN.

 

Now it's all about using Kalut's wisely, when to use Vayu, when to Icarus, etc.

 

I run Doomcals because it gives me alot more time to make these decisions and makes my options alot more varied.

 

I run Jar however because my hand size is always quite low, hmm, I should probably rebuild my Blackwings and tell people how to play them.
