Forum:March 2012 - Dark Valley Deck dead?

This is one of the decks I really liked to run because of its bounce effects - and because it was different enough that it would mess with most of the decks in my area (not necessarily win, but it would make people sweat). Unfortunately, it used Reborn Tengu as part of its engine, which was semi-limited as of March 2012. So tell - is my deck now useless? Should I (can I) replace the Reborn Tengu cards with something else? Or do I run my 2 Tengus, and simply throw in a Genex Blastfan or a Winged Rhynos? Please, let me know your thoughts. Here's the deck as it stood prior to March 2012:

Reason for card choices:


 * Dark Simorgh It's a WIND and DARK deck, so why the heck not?
 * Mist Valley Thunderbird makes for easy synchro/xyz with Shaman
 * Mist Valley Falcon It has 2000 atk. and it works great with Divine Wind, Thunderbird, and Tengu
 * Mist Valley Shaman It's a level 3 tuner and works great with Divine Wind, Thunderbird, and Tengu
 * Mist Valley Soldier Target for Divine wind and Summoner Monk, and it's a tuner.
 * Genex Ally Birdman see Shaman
 * Sangan Best searcher ever.
 * Reborn Tengu Works so well in this bounce deck
 * Summoner Monk x2 makes for easy Synchros and XYZs


 * Divine Wind of Mist Valley Must have field spell for this deck
 * Quill Pen of Gulldos Not only recycles WIND monsters, but works great with Divine Wind, Thunderbird, and Tengu AND bounces opponent's cards.


 * Compulsory Evacuation Device A must have card in a bounce deck.

Thanks for your help. -- - Kungfu-mama ( Talk ) 16:24, March 2, 2012 (UTC)
