Blackwing - Wild Thunderbird

[Atypical-Abbie]

A new Blackwing Synchro Monster, it focuses on effect damage.

 

 

1 ”Blackwing” Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner “Blackwing” monsters
When this card is Synchro Summoned: You can Special Summon 1 “Blackwing” monster from your hand, then you take damage equal to its ATK. Once per turn: You can discard 1 “Blackwing” card; destroy all Spell/Trap Card your opponent controls, then inflict damage to your opponent equal to the number destroyed x 500. Cannot be Special Summoned from the Graveyard, except by the effect of a “Blackwing” monster.

Not a bad card, it gives the Blackwings some back row clearing power and effect damage. With the waning importance of spells and traps, I don't necessarily see this as that overpowered, especially considering that this has a cost associated with it. The special summoning condition can be seen as a bit overpowered seeing that there's no level limit on the monster you can summon, but the Blackwings have never been known to have powerful trump cards outside of their synchros so it seems like it will okay. I like that it is level seven so it doesn't compete for space against extra deck staples like Stardust Dragon and Trishula.
