Explained
A Level 5 Tuner. Special Summon it from your hand while you control no monsters, then summon 2 "Vague Shadow Tokens". Banish it and face-up non-Tuners to revive a "Blackwing" Synchro from your GY with matching Level, treated as a Tuner.
It can't be used in Advanced Format. It's Forbidden in the TCG.
- Using the tokens as Tribute or Synchro Material. They can't be.
Status: Forbidden in the TCG (Sept 21, 2026 list), so it can’t be used in Advanced Format.
How it works
Summon: Can’t be Normal Summoned/Set. Special Summon it from your hand while you control no monsters.
- When Special Summoned from the hand: Special Summon 2 “Vague Shadow Tokens” (Winged Beast/DARK/Level 1/ATK 0/DEF 0). They can’t be Tributed or used as Synchro Material.
- Ignition: Banish this card and 1 or more face-up non-Tuners you control, then target 1 “Blackwing” Synchro Monster in your GY whose Level equals the banished monsters’ total Levels; Special Summon it, treated as a Tuner.
Rulings in plain English
Self-summon: Not an effect; no chain. Once properly summoned, it can later be revived from the GY by other effects.
Revival: Banishing is the cost. The revived Synchro stays a Tuner while it’s face-up in the Monster Zone.
