I know the Black Knight is not an insanely good card. But I play a lot of Aggro decks and one of the things that trip me up is taunt. I have every card needed in pirate warrior and I like that play style, so I was thinking of putting the Black Knight in that deck. Taunt is so annoying to deal with especially with Taunt warrior. Any thoughts? Suggestions? Thank you!
You should not play situational cards in agrro deck. It makes no sense since it will ruin all your other match-ups. If you lose vs taunts, whatever, it's how it works, some decks are countering other ones. You just conceding and trying again.
Black knight is more for mid-range / tempo decks which benefit from a nice swig in the midgame (I'm not saying it is currently good at that, but that is what it does best).
It has no use in aggro decks, you don't need the swing... you just want to push past that taunt. An owl or spellbreaker will do just as well, but even those should largely be unnecessary... pw has plenty of dmg and is good all-round, teching just weakens it vs the field most of the time.

you are wrong dude.
pirate warrior nowadays runs 1 copy of Spellbreaker which is totally enough, Black Knight is unnecessary.
