Blackback, another weapon to the all ready
overloaded Blackwing arsenal. Now, the
downside with this card is that you can only
activate this during your turn, and also the fact
that you can't Normal Summon or Set the turn you use
this card.
You can however still Special Summon, which is
important. Select a Blackwing monster with
2000 or less attack from your Graveyard, and this is
a Special Summon. Odds are this will be a
Tuner or some other non-Blackwing Synchro monster.
Use this to perform said Synchro Summon, or whatever
it is you need to do. I like it, but it's a
card I can really see Blackwing players taking or
leaving, having that said:

Blackback: Not a pirate, but yet another
Blackwing card Konami doesn't want real players to
use. It essentially lets you use your normal summon
to play a Blackwing from the graveyard. Why is it
useless? It can only be used during your turn, you
lose your normal summon, and it's a trap card. If it
was a spell card, it'd have some sort of use, but
not as a trap. Nobody wants to wait a turn to waste
their normal summon on a weak effect. Blackwings
have better cards to run and cards worth normal
summoning.
2/5
Art: At least it looks nice when it's shiny.
Fun Fact: Disney founded that peg-leg eye-patch
pirate stereotype.
Tomorrow: A nice FFFUUUUU- card.

Blackback is a normal trap that special summons a
Blackwing from your grave with 2000 or less attack.
You can only activate it on your turn and you cannot
normal summon or set when you activate this card.
Other then quick damage, this card is terrible.
Blackwings need their normal summon in order to set
up their plays, taking it away and only giving them
a Wing with 2000 or less attack to work with, isnt
good.
1/5 Both formats
Art- Boring

Blackback is an interesting trap, and it would be
pretty decent too, if it weren't simply outclassed
by preexisting cards. Special Summoning anything
Sirocco-sized or less is significant, but the
clauses at the beginning and end are what seal its
fate as a trash holo. Activating only during your
own turn hurts a lot, but no Normal Summons or Sets
is just awful. There's pretty much no reason to play
this card when you have Monster Reborn and Call of
the Haunted available, unless you are already using
both of those and want more revival.
Traditional: 1/5 Blackwings aren't even very good
here, plus you'd have Premature Burial as another
replacement for Blackback.
Advanced: 1.5/5 Not that it's totally useless, but
other cards to the same thing better.
Art: 1/5 Pretty boring.
