iAmNateXero Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Send 1 "Blackwing" monster from your hand to your Graveyard. Select 1 Normal Trap card in your opponent's Graveyard. The effect of this card becomes the effect of the selected Trap Card Now even you dont need that super expensive CCV everybody's been dying to get!

Skyfi Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Great if you're running a Tele-Dad Mirror Match, and you can't draw that damn CCV :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 So I take it this works like Trap of Drakness? As I said before, Blackwing monsters are looking to become one of the better archetype Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabHelmet Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Some of its matchups are just plain awful. Against Lightlords builds that don't include CCV, for example, it's a more expensive Threatening Roar at best, and even if they do run CCV, it's only any use at all if the CCV has already been milled. In fact, if your opponent doesn't have CCV or Dustshoot in the graveyard, this is weak in general: it can become a PWWB with a more restrictive cost, a CED with a cost, a Threatening with a cost, a Waboku with a cost, and so on, but it's always just a weaker version of another card that you could be running instead. You could say it's more versatile, but considering that it depends entirely on what the opponent has in the graveyard, I would consider "inconsistent" to be a more apt description. Throw in the fact that it's useless early in the game, and it has some serious problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SephirothKirby Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 Well, y'know, Blackwings can already utilize Crush Card Virus if you put it in your deck instead of relying on opponents. I'd certainly side deck this, though. Seems like it could be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenzoTheHarpist Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 It's a decent card, certainly runnable in Blackwings but I see this as being more of a personal preference in that decktype than anything truly necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine copying Miorror' date=' effectively giving you two![/quote'] I'm assuming that "Miorror" means "Mirror Force", although it could mean "Bubble Crash" for all I know. First of all, very few people run Mirror Force in this format, and unless your opponent not only runs Mirror Force but also has drawn and used it already, this card cannot have a Mirror Force effect. Second of all, even ignoring all of that, all you're getting is a highly situational and inconsistent Trap version of Lightning Vortex with a more restrictive discard cost that can only be used late in the game and that can't take down a face-up Defense Position monster.

Mr. Judgment Dragon Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 I LOL'd at the title and expected a LOLZ-worthy topic. So I take it this works like Trap of Drakness? In a way, I guess it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. not exactly... this pulls from your opponents grave... but close enough i suppose...Read the bold, Im sure FD was referring to the "Skipping of the Cost/activation requirements" not the fact that its two different cards. I mean, I think its an entirely different card, but I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
