Why sucks?

When you have Gwen this deck doesn't suck trust me. Gwen on a dark knight is powerful

[@Mr.Event501]

I just used it against a galaxy (here), black rose dragon, ddd, magician, most the top tier decks, and it's doing great! I think if it's built differently than most (like mine. Don't need 3 Merlin, 3 medraut ) it can still beat top tier. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZCse5qPf5Kqe9E

[@user-ashborn16]

Noble Knight is one of my favorite decks, playstyle and artwork - wise. Its such a pity that the deck was nerfed: Harpies and the widespread use of Book of Moon in the later weeks after the banlist would powercreep the deck naturally, and many decks that needed Balance to have playable hands got nerfed into oblivion with the restrictions placed in the skill. Konami made a very poor game- planning when choosing to hit the skill instead of the deck

[@OrganizationXIII]

Cry me a river Go play cod or something It’s more fun anyways

[@williamhuynh869]

I actually liked the Noble Knights. They werent even that strong going into when they were nerfed by power rankings, and didnt use too much disruption. Desperado was much less fun to llay against then.

[@bhmayhem]

@@OrganizationXIII shut the hell up, the man is sad his favorite deck (and mine) got hit and your being a inconsiderate shithead. If you hate people so much be toxic on COD instead.

[@ThatGuyUnderYourSofa]

id disagree its good to hit the skill but the way they hit it was too rough. good example is onomat. how many cards you wanna limit 2 cause of the skill? its obvious the skill is the problem but balance could have been nerfed better

[@Brandon195718201]

It sucks but Balance had to get nerfed. It was only a matter of time when another, more powerful deck abused it. Hell, Noble Knights abused it to get into Tier 1. And generally, I'm not a fan of decks so heavily reliant on a skill. It was laughable how a skill nerf killed NKs. And I'm glad it did as it allows for more deck creativity imo. Which is why I'm trying to build Onamats in a way where a skill nerf won't deter it as much.

[@Smol_Butt_Cheeky]

NK is such a cool archetype. It's a shame it gets shut down so badly by disruption

[@aidee1920]

Yeah, it has so little comeback potential. Go second, you summon, get disrupted, and BAM that's it.

@@altair3058 you dont use your favorite deck just because its bad? Youre already hollow, arent you?

[@TimothyGod]

Before watching video prediction!! I don't think it will be nearly as easy imo. My reason is that it relies to heavily on its normal summon, and things nowadays are way to quick so stop that. Also hopefully I'm wrong I got the deck 3 times when it came out and (that was back when I was kinda trash deck build and would always go 30 cards) used all the cards for my deck, minus anything from a box. I didn't get Gwynivere til later. I should preface and say, that also meant I was playing without realizing they were meta, since I didn't do anything besides play in game. And sometimes and rarely go online

[@chestercz9428]

nope, when u activate "brother" on normal summon, you can take 2 other noble knights to filled up the field from your hand. and you can attack the opponents with 3 noble knights filled your field only. It has nothing to do with activating the effect of summoning.

[@arahyoonseul4174]

I didn’t understand how his deck works. So i just went for ultimate dragons.

[@crimsonblaze2838]

I used this deck it's almost perfect but the only thing the stopped me are the opponent summon shooting star dragon in his first turn so it's over

[@crismc_dog3957]

Noble knights are such a fun archetype to play. It’s sad that Konami nerfed the skill instead of the deck because I would rather have 2 different weaker play styles than hurting the consistency of the deck especially when this deck relies on normal summoning at the start to get going. This deck should be brought back as it is like an engine (At first it’s slow, but after a while it becomes strong and flexible) where over time you gain advantage kind of like Gaia. Nerfing the skill stopped people from playing meta back row because it hurt the already low consistency of the deck without the skill; meaning that if you do play it with just 20 cards, you have no protection if you get disrupted at the start. Please bring them back Konami if you read this!!

[@inhalethegreenexhalethedre4443]

The death of this deck shows one thing to me , the skill is more important than the deck itself because Konami will manipulate your opening hand and the only way to cheat through that is with a broken skill that lets you add the card you need for your combo , if you don't believe me take a look at the strongest decks right now.. Onomats , Gaia , Resonators...

The way NK got killed with no limited cards is the same way Onamats as we know will go if Konami pulled their heads out of their asses and nerfed their skill. It still pisses me off how they nerfed balance but thought Onomanaplay was healthy. And I'm convinced Onamats would still be a good investment. A decent rank 4 and 6 spam deck that's only gonna get stronger with good XYZ and support. And like Cyber Dragons, their great cards are being gate kept by stupidly busted skills.

@@The_Etchaleon To be honest with you I don't care what type of playstyle Onamats defer to after the nerf. In fact Id be rather impressed if they do anything on their own merits. And a restriction wouldn't hurt them too much. There's plenty of Number and Utopia monsters to be released and Onamat players can wait for that. The decks been meta closing in on a year now and will continue to see rogue or tiered play in the future. But the skill has to go. No ifs ands or buts. It HAS to go. Its incredibly unhealthy and no amount of underplaying its power will convince me otherwise. Plus with the nerf, comes the possibilty of unnerfing the Onamats cards. Which i would love to see just to see if the deck can stand on its own with a stupidly busted skill.
