UPDATE: I found a more consistent way to summon Shuraig the Ominous Omen and Simorgh while not having Phantom Knight Bardiche on the field and still summoning Ultimate Falcon. Instead of relying on Bardiche's effect to pop the Arsenal Falcon (and as a result summon ultimate falcon), link summon either Shuraig or Simorgh using Wise Strix as two materials and Arsenal Falcon as one of the other materials. This will pop Arsenal activating his effect to summon Ultimate Falcon, as well as turn Wise Strix into a more formidable monster than Phantom Knight Bardiche. Also I changed how I go into Arsenal Falcon. I added back Raider's Knight and Raid Raptor - Stranger Falcon(Lvl 5 xyz). I go into the lvl 5 Xyz using Raider's knight then summon Arsenal Falcon using another rank up card Rank-Up-Magic Skip Force (set via Wise Strix effect) (I dropped the phantom knight rank up magic launch spell for this). Then using the method above I link summon away Arsenal Falcon and get Ultimate Falcon. This method also let's me USE both Stranger Falcon and Arsenal Falcon's ability during the combo line because they both will have sufficient materials to do so. In the method shown in the video you cant use Arsenal Falcon's XYZ ability because he only has one raid raptor material and if you detach it, he loses his ability to summon Ultimate Falcon when he goes to the grave. Phantom Knight Bardiche is now a backup option in case a rank-up magic card gets negated or if I had trouble popping Arsenal Falcon. He can help me get a new one and help me pop Arsenal Falcon. Other notes, - I reduced force strix to 2 instead of 3 to make room for Raider's Knight. - I added one copy of Raidraptor - Mimicry Lanius to help extend combos when going down Raidraptor Line (reduced blackwing kris to 2). - Dropped the blackwing level one tuner, removed one allure of darkness and one droplet. I usually always run droplet at 3 so I may go back to that). - Added in Raigeki and Lightning Storm (this deck is really prone to interruptions so I want to add in a couple board breakers to help. - Dropped the blackwing level 12 syncro to make room for Raidraptor Stranger falcon. - Switched out level 5 blackwing syncro for lvl7 blackwing syncro blackwing tamer. I'm working on a video now to showcase ranked duels with this deck and it is performing awesome in plat. The new video will show the duels and updated decklist.

U can rank up to ultimate falcon by banish 4 on force strix earlier way
I wonder if the new black wing support from darkwing blast could have a home in this deck
Oh for sure it does. I mainly only focus on master duel so I won’t cover them until they come to the game !
Please release that video dude
A more evolved version of this build is on my channel under blackwing/raidraptor ranked duels ! Thanks for watching
If you add revolt you can bring out tri brigade
Oh man! Just looked it up. Definitely gonna add that. As you can tell I’m not an experienced tri brigade guy 😅 thanks!
