Description

The tribe of knights got so many powerful rares and mythics that were meant to make mardu knights extremely powerful, similar to what they did with rogues in zendikar. So what I did was took those cards of mardu knights wizards wanted to be played and put them in a deck to see how it would work. Many streamers made similar decks and almost all of them posted above 70% win, and i had similar results. So with all these powerful rares and mythics and high win rates why are knights basically un played, with less than 1% of all knights played based on aether hubs metagame stats.

What seems to be the problem is that no one has tried to make a good knights deck, no one has tried to make a truely competitive version, everyone just seems to consider it a joke. Thats why I built this deck as a start up for innovation including (in my opinion) the best knight tribal cards, and some more experimental ones such as Syr Gwyn, Hero of Ashvaleimage and The Circle of Loyaltyimage.

And if you haven't noticed already i put in one card that is not a knight which is General Kudro of Drannithimage. This is because this knight decks main purpose is getting our small knights and tokens made with worthy knight bigger because they all happen to be humans. And he is a bit of graveyard hate for all the kroxa decks going around. Also Syr Gwyn, Hero of Ashvale has been ok but feels a bit like Fiery Emancipationimage by the time it comes down you either have already won or loss but can swing 10% of games. But it is not like fiery emancipation is good so you probably shouldn't carft her and should probably get more General Kudro and Acclaimed Contenderimage. The rest of the deck though is pretty straight forward of play one drops and two drops than throw down equipment or get them larger with tribal buffs to swing for lethal as quick as possible.

So that is the deck, and be free to make any adjustments you feel necessary and cut cards that don't seem as good as you play and i hope the deck treats you well because if you have read all my mumbling your probably going to try out the deck, and make sure to tell me in the comments what has been your best set for knights so far. Boros? Some other synergy I completely missed? Just tell me in the comments.
