Mega Knight

What it looks like

The Mega Knight is a Legendary card that is unlocked from the Electro Valley (Arena 11). It spawns an area-damage, ground-targeting, melee, ground troop with very high hitpoints and high damage. Upon deployment, he will deal damage to enemy units around him in a 360º area around him, and inflict knockback. If there are ground units between 3.5 and 5 tiles of him, he will stop moving and begin charging a jump attack which takes 0.9 seconds to execute, and will deal double damage, and inflict knockback. He appears as a Knight with blue eyes and black eyebrows, wearing a helmet with a team-colored feather on top, maces on his arms, and huge dark armor. A Mega Knight card costs 7 Elixir to deploy.

Trivia

• The word "Knight" comes from the German "Knecht", meaning servant or vassal. Originally, knights were associated with mounted warriors, later being considered a class of lower nobility, until eventually, knighthood had become associated with the ideals of chivalry, a code of conduct for the perfect courtly Christian warrior. Often, a knight was a vassal who served as an elite fighter or a bodyguard for a lord, with payment in the form of land holdings. In the Chinese and Vietnamese language settings of the game, the Mega Knight's name translates to "Super Knight". In the Italian and Arabic language settings of the game, the Mega Knight's name translates to "Great Knight" and "Giant Knight" respectively.
