Hello. For some reason in the years of playing The Black Knight has evaded my card pulls. A while back I acquired a golden Hogger I have been seeing a lot of black knights floating around lately. Should I get the 1600 dust from hogger and make this happen?
The Black Knight is a very niche, tech card. Craft it if you run into a lot of Taunt Druid or Quest Warrior. Sometimes you'll put The Black Knight in your deck and then find out 9 times out of 10 you don't even use it.
do you need it? that's the question, do not craft something because everyone is using it, im playing even warlock because i need some wins for the golden portrait and i dont have it, i just play siphon soul instead, i hit Legend already in the first days of the season and to be honest u can play the deck without it, if you have a lot of dust and you really need it for a deck then craft it, its a classic and its going to be around forever.
You should take a look at this video about the Classic set. There's a YouTuber that compiled the stats of each Legendary cards and made recommendation on which to craft/dust for the Classic set. Its very useful. ^_^
Depends on how many other classic legendaries you still need. If you have all the ood ones (including Harrision and other situational ones) than sure
I have most of the classic set already, its just black knight i was never lucky to get. I think i am missing about 5-7 legs from the whole classic set. I think knight and malygos are the only significant ones i don't have. I was holding onto hogger hoping it would find a way into taunt warrior or druid... but no luck with that.
EDIT: these are the legendaries i am missing from the classic set: king crush ( never crafted it because i usually got it from a discover), Cho, nat pagle, king mukla, tinkmaster overspark, the beast, black knight, malygos, onyxia, deathwing.
It is a great card to have in collection, and it is a classic, so it is quite craftable. But it is not really essential, for example in even handlock you can simply replace it with Siphon Soul and it will do pretty much the same job.
I crafted him for the even lock deck and I don't regret it and as many posters already mentioned it's a classic and a tech card so this will most likely not be nerfed or moved to hall of fame.
It would suck if you craft Black Knight, and in 3 months or 6 months you feel bad cause there's a legend you REALLY want but are short on dust. Black knight won't make or break the deck so the question is: will you always be happy you have it?

If you thought you knew what you think I know, then you'd know I knew you knew I know.
I've been running it lately over spellbreaker. It just seems like there are enough huge taunts on ladder right now to justify it and still allows your built board to hit face a lot of the time.

that's a good point. I just added a siphon soul to my even meat wagon deck. I'd only really be using TBK to take out lich kings and such and the siphon soul does that also. You do get an extra body on the board though and the ability with glinda + portal(s) to play him more than once.
I don't have TBK though so can't test that out unfortunately.
The Black Knight has gone in and out of favor over the years. One of the biggest resurgences was because of the popularity of the Lich King in the Frozen Throne. It seemed everyone and their mother had the Black Knight in their deck to counter him, but that quickly faded away.
It seems to me now that the new hype comes from his popularity in the Sunmer Championship, merely as a tech card. A smart choice for a tournament event maybe, but on the ladder? I doubt it.

No dude come on ...
Don't craft it It's not that good ... So you telling me that Black Knight Is better than Hex Or Polymoph or Execute ... etc
It's not worth to spend 1600 dust for .

Just don't, especially with a new expansion around the corner.
Especially if you stll don't have Malygos.
Remember playing Control Shaman with Reincarnate shenanigans? No? It was fun, here's a refresher!

"Everyone! Get in here!"
I still need mally. such a great card as well. I've oppened ysera twice and a deathwing, still no mally though :(
I'd say wait, taunt can still be silenced so you have options for substitutes.. BK is good but depends on the meta really
Renounce Darkness
He is a tech card that can be easily replaced by other stuff.
