If a "Noble Arms" Equip Spell becomes equipped to this card: You can Special Summon 1 "Noble Knight Token" (Warrior/LIGHT/Level 4/ATK 1000/DEF 1000), also you cannot Special Summon monsters for the rest of this turn, except "Noble Knight" monsters. Hard OPT. While this card is equipped with a "Noble Arms" Equip Spell, all other "Noble Knight" monsters you control gain 500 ATK.

Until Noble Arms are Needed Once Again

Excavate cards from the top of your Deck, equal to the number of "Noble Arms" Equip Spells you control, and if you do, add 1 of them to your hand, also place the remaining cards on top of your Deck in any order. You can banish this card from your GY, except the turn this card was sent to the GY; Special Summon from your Deck, 1 "Noble Knight" monster with a different name from the cards you control or in your GY (hard OPT).

Shame the searcher only re-adds itself on the main thing NKs are protected from, and Morgan isn't a Warrior for Isolde plays, but both make sense in terms of flavour. Iyvanne is a great ladder without being too good, although not being generic sucks. Needed suffers from Konami hating Traps but it restocks your handtraps and the last effect is absolutely a reason to play it regardless.

These are really good. Like, REALLY good. I might actually pick up Noble Knights in MR4 now.

[The Highlander]

All of these sound amazing, a (sadly unsearchable) omni negation handtrap (with neglectible cost, you want to do what you want to do anyways and the equip floats).

 

The E-Call (Heritage of the Chalice) can even fetch the Equips and recycle itself as a plus.

 

Iyvanne + any Noble Arms is Isolde, which tutors Medraut, which goes into the Xyz.

 

"Until Noble Arms are Needed Once Again" is a straight (+1), in the worst case the first part is only a draw.

 

All of these sound amazing, unlike he previous support these are actually buffing Noble Knights in a serious way.

The best set of NK support by far.

 

The RotA for NKs and NAs is what they've needed for a long time and the fact that it can add itself to the hand is also a neat addition.

 

Morgan is also great since it’s the interruption that they needed to be a little bit more competitive too. Bonus that it can destroy an equip and re-equip it to Drystan for some more interruption.

 

Iyvanne isn’t bad at all either. He’s another reliable starter aside from Medraut and Borz that can actually do something.

 

The trap is ok because it’s a trap in a deck like this, but excavating is nice. It can also be dumped by Borz, which lets you set up for using its second effect to fetch a knight out from your deck.

 

 

I love this support and I think it definitely mitigates (if not fix) a lot of their glaring issues.

just here to give mad props to you for SPECIFICALLY mentioning the Drystan synergy with Morgan's effects-that's the world's easiest pop, and since UNAANA can spring it from the Deck and the Brothers can get it from the hand for insultingly easy cost, leaving a Drystan on the field with an unattached equip just gave Noble Knights a new mindgame not seen since Isolde into Shien's Squire in the Six Sam build.

 

(wait am I the only one who does that? I mean, battle protection on your Shi En or Rizan is the cat's meow)

Yeah, and I think mind games/interruption is what’s going to make them really competitive.

 

Also, I think the new best combo would be Medraut + Noble Arms > Iyvanne + Noble Arms > Medraut + Token into Isolde.

 

Then shennanigans with Isolde SSing anything from the deck and you can Xyz after still.
