With the recent release of "Blackwing" monsters along with more DARK support cards, duelists have been looking for other DARK Winged Beast-Type monsters and this card is by far one of the best which fits in those categories. Now at first glance, this card might not seem like much with only 100 ATK and DEF. Virtually every monster in the game can destroy it in battle. However, the effect of D.D. Crow makes up for all its flaws in battle and, at the same time, makes it a noteworthy card.

So what makes its effect so useful? Well firstly, it can be used against the quite commonly-played "Pot of Avarice" by removing 1 of the monsters your opponent selects to return to their Deck, preventing them from returning the 4 other monsters that they wanted back in their Deck. The effect of "D.D. Crow" can also be used to remove the third DARK monster in your opponent's Graveyard slowing them down in the attempt to Summon the infamous "Dark Armed Dragon", or you could remove that fourth "Lightsworn" preventing the Summoning of "Judgment Dragon" and possibly giving you another turn to start a counter attack.

Now of course "D.D. Crow" isn't just limited to removing monsters you remove your opponent's Spell and Trap Cards as well, stopping cards like "Magical Stone Excavation", "Mask of Darkness", and "Spell Reproduction" dead in their tracks. Also, if the card has a cost to activate it, your opponent will still have to pay it and get nothing back as a result giving you more of a field/hand advantage. Its effect, ironically, can also help the Summon and activate the effect of the aforementioned "Dark Armed Dragon", since it can contribute as an easy DARK monster for your Graveyard.

As you can tell, "D.D. Crow" is a very flexible card and can be quite deadly and annoying when used correctly. With all these examples of stopping cards from either being summoned or being able to resolve their effects, there is no reason why "D.D. Crow" shouldn't be able to be placed in most Decks.

We have begun entering all Japanese characters for all relevant cards, using a rather neat set of tags called "Ruby". This enables characters to be entered above others in a smaller text, mimicking how Konami prints the text on their cards.

Subsequently, browsing this Wikia in Internet Explorer is recommended, since this renders correctly. However, Firefox users may be wondering why they just see a set of brackets with characters. Firefox, as it turns out, does not have out-of-the-box support for XHTML Ruby. But, all is not lost, simply go here to download the XHTML Ruby Extension, works on all Firefox versions from 1.0 to 3.0.*.
