Black Hawks -First Time Post-

[DuskOkami]

As the title suggestions this is my first time ever making a post about cards. I'm definitely rusty so my knowledge goes only up to the beginning of XYZs so I have no clue how nuts it has become. The cards are consistent of essentially Chaos warriors to fill the field up and summon their bigger monsters to take out the opposition as well as most of its support revolves around summoning or surviving. I'm not the best grammatically so I expect a few (or a ton) of errors and I'm real sorry for not being able to credit the artist at the time since I had essentially lost the image files since they where on an old laptop. This intro has been rambling on so let's start:

Its hard to rate and help with ocg when there are so many cards so I'll just try to do a quick overview.

 

All monsters have the effect to be treated as both Light and Dark, and reading through their other effects, I don't really see a point to this. Try making a few high levels  (your generals) be affected by it to give it a use, as in "For each face-up Light monster you control this card gains..." and same with Dark.

 

It seems like most of the cards are overpowered, and usually not because of the combos from this archetype, but from being able to be used with cards outside of it.

Most of the cards that summon from your deck are op as in they have no drawbacks (destroying at the End Phase is not a real drawback); maybe say you cannot ss again this turn, they can only be used for "Black Hawk" synchros or xyzs, you take dmg per summon, skip this turns battle phase; anything that can stop you from otk, otherwise you have several ways to pull that off very easily.

 

Ive also noticed several (attacking) field locks, which seems a bit much for a single deck.

 

"Overwhelming Will of Survival" and "Humble Retreat" need to specify that the monsters cannot be destroyed by battle only on this turn.

 

"Rally" seems almost Useless in this deck as there was only 1 real drawing card, most support cards for these monsters keep them alive on the field or ss from the deck. Seeing as how the ss from the deck (especially in the quantity of some of these cards) is op, maybe them to your hand instead, this would give "Rally" more use.

 

"...Armstrong" can be too powerful, maybe alter his eff to say they can make a second attack, except a direct attack to their opponents Lp.

 

Several cards were trying to specify "Dark or Light Warrior-type monsters" whereas you completely forgot to put in "Light".

 

Anyways, weaken the cards that SS from your deck, try to find backgrounds for those without one and keep in mind some of what I said; that might help this deck turn around to being a cool idea to a more realistic archetype.
