PostSubject: Blackwing - Zephyros the Elite   Sun Jan 30, 2011 12:01 pm


/ Attr. Dark / Type: Winged Beast / ATK/DEF: 1600/1000

You can return 1 card you control to the hand to Special Summon this card from your Graveyard and take 400 damage. This effect can only be used once per Duel.


Let's introduce you something good.The card first appeared in 95 episode of Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's, but his debut on OCG was in Duelist Pack 11: Crow.The effect is pretty awesome.This card gives you free easy special summon of level 4 monster, also he's Blackwing so with all these tuners there - much easier synchro.First Blackwing monster with 1600 attack always will takes our attention.Good searching with Whirlwind (Kalut,Gale,blizzard,vayu etc).For the summon - can just set some spell/trap and return it, or return Gale or Bora and then special summon them again.Also you can return Kalut for his damage effect or just summon Zephyros for Icarus to cleaning the field.

But the cutiest side of the card is that Zephyros can be used in any deck.As free special summon monster this card can be used in any Deck, which use Tuners or Monarchs.You can even insert it in the old Tele-DAD or zombies.Own with PSZ and Malici.The only gay think is "This effect can only be used once per Duel.", but meh the card is still great.

effect is reasonable though "once per duel" is kinda disappointing. good shizz as a beatstick or a synchro material and also for icarus and that HS for BW's

in all card is not bad worth a try

Tested this already, it doesn't plus as much as people may think, most of the time you end up breaking even due to field constraints, if your playing well. It is pretty good though, especially with all the crappy BW support that Konami pushes down our throats each set, Overall: A necessity, this is not But I like it.

Just looked for something new interesting and surprise - new support for Blackwings.Let's present some of the card, who caught my eye:


Blackwing - Kogarashi the Wanderer
Level 6 / Types:Winged Beast/Tuner / Attribute:DARK / ATK/DEF:2300/1600
When a face-up "Blackwing" monster you control is destroyed by a card effect and sent to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon this card from your hand. If this card is used as a Synchro Material Monster for a Synchro Monster, your opponent cannot activate a Spell, Trap, or Effect Monster's effect.


Kk this card makes his debut on Extreme Victory set, which soon will come to TCG too.Easy summon beater - 2300 attack, can be used with some turbo things as well.Just another good bw's support.

-------------------------------------------

Blackwing - Hiren the Sudden Gust
Level 5 / Types:Winged Beast/Tuner / Attribute:DARK / ATK/DEF:0/2300
When you take 2000 or more battle damage from a direct attack, you can Special Summon this card and 1 Level 3 or lower "Blackwing" monster from the Graveyard and negate their effect(s). This effect can only be activated once per Duel.


Another card from Extreme Victory set.Maybe will not be used as much as others.Can be used like saver in some moment when you don't have protection or turn over the game.With Kalut can be used to synchro summon level 8.Or summon itself + another BW monster and with dat use it for Icarus and u still will have advantage +1BW.Also can be used with Zephyros.And think about the combos with Level Eater.They'r pure evil Twisted Evil Twisted Evil Twisted Evil

p.p. The bad thing here is that the card doesnt end the Battle Phase, so if your opponent have several monsters high attack can kill the advantage, which that card gives you.Also 2000 direct damage isn't so little.

Blackwing - Kogarashi the Wanderer: The odds of a Bw being destroyed by card effect without an icarus followup or protection are slim to none are slim to none. Making the card dead most of the time. The second effect would've been good, if it wasnt a 6 star tuner.

Blackwing - Hiren the Sudden Gust: You shouldn't be taking 2000 from a direct attack unless you drew terribad, it brings out a nice wall if you are in that predicament but its still situational like Kogarashi. And the lvl 3 monster will most likely be destroyed. Best to just use Gorz as the followup options are much better.

Overall: Konami is trying too hard or not hard enough with the Black Feather Support

ya, it's in case of TT or mirror force i gues and probably this card also the others(if Hiren will be played at all) will be runned once.
Each set Konami review more and more bws cards so i gues we should expect anothers.

Zephyros is already teched in Debris-Dandy builds as long as we talk about OCG. Tech Genus Hyper Librarian had some people to build a whole deck relying on its strategy at a relatively high rate by using cards like Junk Synchron and Deep Sea Diva for quick Synchro Summons and therefore more card advantage. I'd be happy to see them both released in TCG.

More Bw? <.< In general, both are good cards. A good contribution for Bws.

The only "good" support that Konami has realased for BWs is Zephyros. Everything else in the past to a certain point, and after has just been Shovel ware for Konami to put in booster packs. Its not like the arch type needs the support, they just have a bad way of going on about it.

Kogarashi: I already explained this one. The only way this is going to come out via effect is if you plan badly or mess up somewhere, which shouldn't be happening if you are playing the deck right. It doesn't make any sense to give up resources willingly let alone by mistake to get out a beater that is of less significance than Sirocco, which at the moment is taking a back seat to more important things because its that good in the SS matchup, which is very high in popularity right now. It cant be used in the damage step, and the last effect would've been good if it wasnt a 6 star tuner

Gust isnt too bad however, you shouldn't be in a situation like this: Taking 2000 or more damage from a direct attack means you messed up somewhere or played bad and that should not be rewarded. Not to mention it can only be used once per duel, its not worth it when it generates such little advantage in the end you neg yourself hard. might as well use Gorz if you think you're going to be in that situation.

Anyother Black Feather that Konami has done this sort of thing with is Daybreak:

Blackwing - Kochi the Daybreak
Attribute: DARK
Level: 4
Winged Beast/Tuner/Effect
If this card was Special Summoned, it cannot be used as a Synchro Material monster.
Attack: 700/Defense: 1500

Now this wouldve been really good, if it was like Vayu but its not: Its been ruled as a condition, not an effect so no real synergy with Shura. Once again situational stuff we dont need or want.

Overall: Best thing they have given us as of late is Zephyros. Nothing else isnt really worth using. Good Contributuon? This the typical contribution. Nothing good about it, this has become a common thing.

^ LOL
To limit Gale was one of the smartest thing dat Konami did last formats.And Konami isn't killed the blackwings, they just make them more fair and then create bunch of dumb supports that have 1-2max cards that can be played, but enough to make them stay on top.
