Card Tips:Noble Knight Medraut

"Noble Knight Medraut":

Summon this card and equip it with either "Noble Arms - Caliburn" or "Noble Arms - Arfeudutyr". Use the effect of that Equip Card (if possible), then if you control no monsters, use this card's effect to Special Summon a "Noble Knight" monster from your Deck. When the equipped "Noble Arms" card is destroyed by this card's effect, re-equip it to this card or the Special Summoned monster, and use the effect of the "Noble Arms" card again (if possible).

"Ignoble Knight of Black Laundsallyn": After Special Summoning this card, if "Medraut" is equipped with a "Noble Arms" card, you can Xyz Summon a Rank 5 monster using both monsters.
- Alternatively, you can Tribute "Laundsallyn" by its own effect to search a "Noble Arms" card from your Deck, equipping it to "Medraut" to give it further protection. This can also allow "Medraut" to activate its effect next turn, if you control no other monsters.

"Noble Knight Artorigus": After Special Summoning this card, re-equip the "Noble Arms" Equip Card that "Medraut" destroyed to it. Xyz Summon a Rank 4 monster with it and "Medraut" (assuming "Medraut" has no other "Noble Arms" Equip Cards equipped to it), then detach "Artorigus" for that monster's effect. Doing so will set-up plays for the effect of "Lady of the Lake".

"Noble Knight Borz": After this card is Special Summoned, re-equip the "Noble Arms" Equip Card that "Medraut" destroyed to it. Use the effect of "Borz" to search a "Noble Arms" card and equip that card to "Medraut" to make it Level 5 again. Then, you can Xyz Summon any Rank 5 monster with this card and "Borz".
- Xyz Summoning "Sacred Noble Knight of King Artorigus" afterwards is highly advantageous, since you can equip the other "Noble Arms" cards that "Borz" sent to the Graveyard, via its effect.

"Noble Knight Drystan": After this card is Special Summoned, re-equip the "Noble Arms" Equip Card that "Medraut" destroyed to it. This will activate the effect of "Drystan", destroying a face-up card on the field. Be warned that if your opponent controls no face-up cards, you will have to destroy one of your own.
- "Drystan" can also protect "Medraut" with its effect. If it happens to be destroyed, you can always re-equip the "Noble Arms" Equip Cards from it to "Medraut", giving "Medraut" some protection even afterwards. But be warned that while you control "Drystan", you will not be able to use the effect of "Medraut".

"Noble Knight Gwalchavad": After this card is Special Summoned, re-equip the "Noble Arms" Equip Card that "Medraut" destroyed to it. Use the effect of "Gwalchavad" if applicable, but keep in mind that if you destroy the "Noble Arms" card that was re-equipped to it from "Medraut", that "Noble Arms" card will not be able to re-equip itself (since it was already destroyed once this turn).
- Alternatively, if you have "Noble Knight Gawayn" in your hand, you can Special Summon it from your hand before you use the effect of "Gwalchavad" (assuming "Medraut" is no longer equipped with any "Noble Arms" Equip Cards). Xyz Summon a Rank 4 monster with "Gawayn" and "Medraut", then detach "Gawayn" from the Xyz Monster to activate its effect. Then use the effect of "Gwalchavad", adding "Gawayn" back to your hand and destroying the "Noble Arms" Equip Card equipped to it. Assuming "Gwalchavad" doesn't have any other "Noble Arms" cards equipped to it, Special Summon "Noble Knight Gawayn" from your hand and Xyz Summon another Rank 4 monster.
  - If you Xyz Summon a total of 2 "Blade Armor Ninja" or "Heroic Champion - Excalibur" this way, an OTK can be had.

If "Ignoble Knight of Black Laundsallyn" is in your Graveyard and you want to Special Summon it, use the effect of "Medraut" to Special Summon "Noble Knight Artorigus" or a "Noble Knight" monster that is treated as a Normal Monster, then Tribute that monster to Special Summon "Laundsallyn".

If there is a specific "Noble Knight" monster you want to be in your hand, and you have "Genex Ally Birdman" in your hand, use the effect of this card to Special Summon the appropriate monster from your Deck, then use the effect of "Birdman" to return it or "Medraut" to your hand. Depending on the circumstances, you can Synchro Summon a Level 7 or 8 Synchro Monster afterwards.
