    I use wordfence with every wordpress install. This plugin looks good but Im wondering if wordfence does the the blackhole plugin techniques already but maybe in a different way.

    Should I use this plugin and wordfence?

    Yes, Blackhole for Bad Bots works great with Wordfence, totally fine to use both together. I think WF blocks bad bots statically, based on a list; Blackhole blocks bots dynamically, based on the actual behavior of the bot (which means more accurate protection, fewer false positives, etc.).
