Its one of those cards that are so abusable by running 3 copies of itself (Tengu + Dewloren) that actually deserves to be semi'd.

Sad thing is, it never sees play anymore. Discuss.[/center]

@2 forever. Tengu will join him soon.

[Toffee.]

The Wc07 rulings were hilarious.
You could activate this during your Opponent's turn.

Those claw-Knuckles always freaked me out.

When do you expect the OCG to receive Reborn Tengu?

Hence the word "soon", meaning not now.

This + Genex Ally Birdman = <3

Awesome card

[Giga Hand]

Thing is, with its stats, it doesn't even seem that abusable. Reborn Tengu is far more abusable, especially because it works with Divine Wind of Mist Valley. It would be okay in Monarchs, Genexes, and some synchro-oriented decks, but that's about it I think. I can think of better cards that are at 3 (Treeborn Frog). This needs to be @3, because then it would be not crappy. Okay, I guess it isn't bad @2, but I do not see any reason why it should not be @3, barring some sort of synchro-oriented OTK. Besides, wouldn't it clog @3?

Also, good for rank 6 Xyzs (Do any exist?).

Yes. There are better cards that do pretty much the same thing.

Then teach me! If ignorance is annoying, eliminate it instead of insulting it. I want to see what game-winning combos can be done with this @3 that can't be done @2.

Tengu created Decks. 'nuff said + those copies can still be recycled. More Tengu, more ways to use its effect.

Mystic Tomato into this guy, Normal Summon PLZ, go mad.

Or the level 2 TG tuner that ss itself with grephers to ditch mali, idk.

clear up what you meant in the 1on1 btw

[Shizuku Oikawa]

Pretty much for Destiny Draw, then Special Summon another Malicious, then Summon a Level 2 or lower Tuner, or a Level 3 Genex Tuner. Not sure, been a while since I used him.

[White Void]

For the last time guys, Tengu won't be hit. He's good but he can't be searched by anything commonly played except Summoner Monk outside of Divine Wind decks. What makes Malicious so potent is his synergy with Stratos(who has synergy with RotA and E-Call) and Destiny Draw, along with Dark Grepher, Armageddon Knight, and Tomato. It's far easier to get Malicious to the grave than it is to get Tengu to the field overall.

[Masteran]

Ps it's called just drawing and normal summoning tengu

But that doesn't make it pullable at any time like Malicious does it? My point is Malicious plays can happen easily at any point in the game. Tengu not quite so much.

Overated card is overated. Yes it's a good card, but not so good that abuse will run rampant.

[White Void]

I seriously don't see Tengu going to 2, great card but nowhere near as much synergy as Mali with anything outside of Divine Wind.

I wish E-Tele was at 3 so you could remake Tele-DAD with Tengu ;_;
