Changes: Noble Knight

Revision as of 05:51, 2 May 2014

Template:Infobox archetype

"Noble Knight", referred to as "Sacred Knight" in the anime and some video games, and known as "Holy Knight" (聖 (せい) 騎 (き) 士 (し) Seikishi) in the OCG, is an archetype of LIGHT and DARK Attribute Warrior-Type monsters. It was introduced in the Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Tag Force 5 Strategy Guide and received its first support in Return of the Duelist with "Noble Arms - Gallatin".

All TCG/OCG "Noble Knights", except "Noble Knight Joan", are based on the Knights of the Round Table of Arthurian legend. The "Noble Arms" archetype supports this archetype, and encompasses weapons used by those knights.

Playing style

The archetype based on three playing styles: Spell/Trap Card control (with the effect of "Noble Arms - Arfeudutyr" and "Artorigus, King of the Noble Knights"), Equip Spells for Warrior-Type monsters with various effects (with 4 released so far), and LIGHT Normal Monsters (1 of them being a Normal Monster itself and 3 treated as one while face-up on the field).

Gemini monsters like "Elemental HERO Neos Alius" and "Knight Dei Grepher" can be useful in this Deck since they are treated as Normal Monsters on the field, making the Special Summon of "Noble Knight Gawayn" and "Ignoble Knight of Black Laundsallyn" easier, and they can also be used with "Gemini Spark" for card advantage. "Honest" is useful in the Deck since they all are LIGHT monsters, except the two "Laundsallyns" (although some other Noble Knights become DARK when equipped with "Noble Arms").

The Deck can easily utilize Xyz Monsters that require Warrior or LIGHT monsters as Xyz Materials, like the "Heroic Champions", "Comics Hero King Arthur", "Blade Armor Ninja", "Constellar Omega" and "Starliege Paladynamo".
