Blackwings!!!!

Will they be good again? Im not sure. With the banlist coming soon its hard to tell. Lots of rumors of a Whirlwind Semi limit. Absolute Powerforce offers absolutely nothing new for Blackwings. Shining Darkness offers more cards for them but I doubt they'll make much of an impact. BlackFeather Dragons effect kills its playability and it makes Silverwind look good. I would only synch into this card for Kalut support. Then we have Blackwing-Ghibli the Hot Wind who does nothing to mak e Blackwing decks better. Sure he saves you from an attack but not worth space in the main deck or side deck. Following the special summon mechanic comes Blackwing-Gust the Adverse Wind. Makes Elphin playable and can allow access to Silverwind without the use of Vayu. And the reduction effect might be good depending on how much the opponent loses. Blackwing-Breeze the Gentle Wind is whats gonna get Whirlwind banned. Summon Shura search this card special summon it by force and synch into an armor master. Its essentially Gale number 2,3, and 4. Even Blizzard can search this card out. Blackwing Shot would be nice if it let you destroy a monster but since it doesnt lets skip it for obvious reasons. Blackwings get a burn card for them selves. Black Thunder can end games if your opponent controls a large field. Will it be played? Maybe. Depends on the duelist. Its like running Mistral. Can help but sucks as well. Blackwings are already tight on space and adding new cards can be difficult. I would actually suggest not maining the third whirlwind and Dark Armed Dragon. As useful as they are they arent always there. Drawing Dark Armed with 6 Blackwings in the grave is a drag. March 2010. The banlist will most definately hit lightsworns and Zombies but the question remains. Will Blackwing be touched? The deck can still otk and searches like no other deck out there. It has the best synchro mechanin in the game and is still a top tier. The only cards I can see getting hit are Black Whirlwind, Icarus Attack, and Blackwing-Vayu the Emblem of Honor. Those cards build up too much unfair advantage for the Blackwing duelist. Well take care and see you tomorrow.
