Hi, I got a blackwing deck too. I’d suggest making the following changes.

-1 Pitch-Black Warwolf
-1 Morphing Jar
-2 Against the Wind
-2 Pot of Avarice
-1 Book of Moon
-1 Shrink
-1 Swords of Revealing Light
-1 Trap Stun
-1 Threatening Roar
-1 Fake Feather
+1 Blackwing - Blizzard the Far North
+1 Dark Armed Dragon
+3 Dark Eruption (replaces Against the Wind)
+2 Allure of Darkness
+2 Swallow's Nest (Can use to swap out in battle phase)
+2 Bottomless Trap Hole
+1 Icarus Attack

Feel free to ignore taking some cards out if you prefer to use them. Good luck with the deck. Bio 21:43, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

Cheers for the input bud. When I get some cash i'll definitely be investing in a Swallow's Nest or two. And when Raging battle Special edition comes out allures shouldn't be that hard to get ahold of. Is it true that BTH is best ran in threes? And as for the DAD one of my mates has one so I should be able to get it easily enough. Trilby 11:50, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

• Some of my decks use 2 bottomless, others use 3. Depends on the space, because it is a good card and should be played with 3 if you can. I run solemn judgment in my blackwing deck, thinks that only dif between my deck and what I suggested. I like solemns to stop stuff like jd and to unsure wins (3 solemn with field advantage can leave opponent helpless =p), but they are optional...I haven’t fully tweaked my deck yet, but bottomless, icarus, dark eruption and swallow’s nest are cards I’d probably change. Not sure if bottomless or icarus is better. Both same for stuff like jd, bottomless cost free and removes but icarus gets stuff like gravity bind and marshmallow. Same for swallow vs. eruption, swap out for attack or get from grave for sync or kalut. Sirocco at 2 may also be unneeded (never got to use his cyber like effect yet). Should work just fine as is though (does lack bit behind ls without side decking). Also gold 2009 DaD‘s are like $20, glad I sold mine for honests which tele-dad was hot =P Bio 00:37, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I had a DAD and traded it for 4 Honests back when Tele-dad was kicking ass. Best Decision i've ever made due to the banlist coming out 5 days later. XD
I'll probably run 2 Bottomless for the minute and replace them and something else for Solemns when I get them. I've just ordered 2 Swallow's Nest so they should really help out when I run face first into a mirror force or something similar. Thanks for all the help. Could you possibly send me your Decklist? I'd like to have a look and possibly take a couple of ideas from it. Also, is it worth putting in Battlestorms?Trilby 10:07, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

I've been running 3 bottomless for about 2 weeks now, and it is a genius idea. Thank you for helping!

Plaguespreader?

A friend of mine recommended a Plaguespreader Zombie for this deck. Should I put it in or not?

The Latest Build.

This is my newest version of my blackwings. I'm strapped for cash at the minute, so DAD and Allures will have to wait.

Comments and suggestions welcome.

Um, are you sure about Avarice? How often does it get used successfully in this build? Runer5h 15:37, 7 July 2009 (UTC)Runer5h

For me, the 2 POA work beautifully. The amount of synchro-ing going on with this deck means that if I draw them early in the game they can still be usable by turn 2, sometimes even turn 1. It's all down to personal preference really, but I love POA in most decks. It also allows me to recycle my blackwings and search them again with Black Whirlwind. In short,POA has saved my ass more times than I can count.

Okay, this is the latest version, tell me what you think.

I need opinions on the 3 Reckless Greeds and what to do spell and trap wise.
