This Format: Blackwings
Blackwings are incredibly popular at the moment. Not only are they cheap to build, but the are a very competitive deck type. They came 3rd in the last Shonen Jump Championship (Anaheim), and reached 2nd in the Canadian nationals, as well as placing highly in nationals and the european and south american championships. They are a good pick, providing relatively consistent control and the ability to easily swarm and OTK. Below is the build Matt Peddle took to second place at Canadian Nationals.

Monsters
A pretty standard blackwing lineup. Dark Armed Dragon is great for clearing the field and going for a final push. Tuners such as gale and blizzard are crucial for the deck in order to whip out synchros like Dark Strike Fighter and Blackwing Armor Master. The monster lineup is purely focused on swarming, and maintaining field presence with cards like kalut.
Spells
Black whirlwind is the engine behind the deck. If you open with whirlwind along with a shura or bora, it can immediately put you in a strong position in the game. Black whirlwind offers almost a toolbox of blackwings to search out. It effectively turns most monsters in your deck into an e-hero stratos. It also stacks, so multiple whirlwinds can give you huge advantage very quickly.
Brain and Mind control are great cards in the deck, as they can help clear the opponent's field, and take cards to be used for synchro summons. Dark Eruption lets you get back your used up gales, blizzards and kaluts. It also helps with graveyard manipulation, so it's easy to drop Dark Armed Dragon and dominate.
Book of moon is a great pick. It's chainable, helps shura blow up monsters and is good against most decks this format. It can stop lightsworns from milling, and blocks off synchroing for your opponent.
Traps
Solemn gives the deck even more control, and helps block off your opponents big plays, or moves that may put you behind in the game. Icarus attack is also great, especially with blizzard. It's rare that your field is going to be empty, so this gives you even more control over the field. It also works on spells and traps, which can set you up for the potential OTK next turn.
