Black Knight

Last Updated: June 4, 2025

Black Knight Overview

Black Knight is a Banner Lords Legendary who shines as a durable control and damage hybrid, bringing Provoke for bosses like the Magma Dragon and HP-scaling AoE damage that makes him effective in Doom Tower, dungeons, and wave-based content.

Black Knight is a menacing character with his mace and Black Armour, if only he wasn’t wearing his dressing gown over the top would he be out-right scary looking. I wouldn’t want to mess with him!

Black Knight is a Legendary Champion who is a part of the Banner Lord faction. If you were king/queen you’d send Black Knight to do your dirty work for you because he has that evil streak about him!

He did receive a Buff in September 2020 and it was well needed, he replaced the plastic mace with a real one so now he is viable in the game and he won’t be guarding that vault of yours.

Now that Doom Tower is in full swing he has risen to a Stand Out champion to defeat Kuldath the Magma Dragon! This is because of his a1 which has a 75% chance to Provoke (Single Target), this ability really keeps Kuldrath under control so your team can finish him off easily!

Black Knight also has a big AOE on his A3 that has damage based from the HP he has lost making him viable for wave clear in Dungeons and in Arena as a damage dealer with a cool passive making him hard to kill.
