Though I would like to do some new stuff with Blackwings, I can't pass up an excuse to play CBs. Lappyzard (talkcontribs) 19:46, December 11, 2011 (UTC)

Man, a few of these characters have tried out several different archetypes, so the possibilities of Decks to build are wider than normal. --Gadjiltron (talkcontribs) 02:47, December 12, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, I knowingly posted them, so you guys aren't completely bound to 1 deck. ---Dark Ace SP (Talk) 04:23, December 12, 2011 (UTC)

I could probably throw together a neat Insect Deck for Weevil, though I haven't really played that much recently, so iunno how good it'll be. Lord Grammaticus (talkcontribs) 16:00, December 12, 2011 (UTC)

It was between Zane, Akiza, or Crow, but I have a pretty cool idea in mind for Zane. Synchro Maniac10 (talkcontribs) 23:45, December 12, 2011 (UTC)

I can't seem to make my Joey deck, im switching to Crow-based deck for blackwings 33royward (talkcontribs) 10:13, December 14, 2011 (UTC)

I believe, although I'm not sure, that I will not be here on December 17 and 18. Also, done with my deck... BF2 Talk Deck Guides 17:41, December 14, 2011 (UTC)

Cool, I can't believe that nobody wants to do Joey. I'll give him a shot. I've got a cool idea for it too. NotARealUsername (talkcontribs) 06:02, December 15, 2011 (UTC)

This is probably too late, and I'm sorry about the short notice, but I've been trying and other than a simple Disaster build with Blue-Eyes thrown in, I can't figure out an effective Kaiba deck. I'm sorry, but you'll have to cut me out. --Blue-Eyes Starlight Dragon (talkcontribs) 04:37, December 16, 2011 (UTC)

So, when I looked at what Manjoume has played, there's Armed Dragon, VWXYZ, and Ojamas to choose from. What to do? Build and test the respective Decks and see which runs best. Armed Dragon won out in the end.

So, this Deck takes the usual Armed Dragon strategy in trying to level up the Armed Dragon as fast as possible, but also throws in a Synchro option. General opening strategies is to have Masked Dragon search out Armed Dragon LV3, particularly during the opponent's turn, so that I instantly have an Armed Dragon LV5 ready once my turn rolls around. 3 copies Level Up! are also added to ensure that if I don't get that strategy rolling, at least the LV3 dragons I'm forced to Normal Summon don't become cannon fodder soon. Dandylion and Cyber Dragon also serve as easy Tribute fodder in case I need to Normal Summon LV5.

Delta Flyer is a main component in making Synchros, since it's the only Tuner and it can tweak levels. This means I can consistently make LV6, 7 and 8 Synchro monsters. If I feel like it, I could even combine Delta Flyer with Armed Dragon LV7 to make Trident Dragion and push for a game-ending swing.

LV3 monsters aplenty in this Deck, so I decided to throw in Leviathan Dragon to make quick beatsticks if needed. Volcasaurus is there if I somehow find myself with 2 Armed Dragon LV5s.

Oh, and with the large number of Dragons in this Deck, Koa'ki Meiru Drago can definitely fit in without interrupting many Special Summons, while also letting its decent ATK be potent fuel for any of the Armed Dragons' effects.

...Eh, that's pretty much it for the Deck, I guess. The Spells and Traps are pretty generic stuff. --Gadjiltron (talkcontribs) 03:00, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

I was surprised how well this works. Everything fits. Monk is DARK and an allure target. Falcon is odd...but it's quite useful. It lets me reuse Fiendish Chain which is extremely effective, as well as serve as a target for Dark Simorgh, as well as, most importantly, get over Thunder King Rai-Oh with no loss. Which is awesome. Totally. There's exactly one Dark Grepher, because it's searchable with Summoner Monk. It's pretty useful once, maybe twice, for sending Zephyros (and occasionally Dark Simorgh) to the Graveyard. After that, it's just Xyz fodder. Dark Simorgh is great, often game winning. It's pretty easy to search with Grepher and Lavalval Chain. Reborn Tengu is great for Dark Simorgh, making costless Synchro Summons, or even Xyz Summoningf

Now for the Blackwing portion. The obvious oddity is Kochi. Well...it works. I can't Synchro Summon with it after Special Summoning it with Shura, but I can Special Summon a Bora from my hand and Synchro Summon Stardust/Scrap. I can Xyz Summon with it too, usually for Steelswarm Roach or Lavalval Chain, depending on the deck I'm facing. Gale is pretty obvious, and is probably the best monster in the Deck. Kalut is pretty obvious as well. Zephyros is great here - the synergy it has...Normal Summon Bora, Special Summon Zephyros, Special Summon Bora, attack for 3300, Xyz Summon Chain or Roach...awesome. It can be sent with Grepher and can also return Fiendish Chain and has allowed me to make Vylon Disigma often. Blizzard lets me get Brionac, Orient or Armed Wing. It's pretty obvious that the first two are amazing, but I've really underestimated Armed Wing. In a format where people are just recognizing the power of Spirit Reaper, Armed Wing becomes a way to punish them for it.

Overall...this Deck is a total improvement on the old Blackwing style. BF2 Talk Deck Guides 14:09, December 16, 2011 (UTC)
