This guy's true value is his ability to give enemy minions taunt. For example, when a Mechwarper is protected by an Annoy-o-Tron: taunt up the Mechwarper and kill it with axe. And then of course there's the obvious The Black Knight synergy, but mostly I think it will be used to taunt up high-priority minions so you can kill them with weapon. Could be a really valuable card in warrior for that reason.
Did you guys noticed it says "give a MINION taunt" instead of "a friendly minion"? Black Knight will get a lot of value out of this card, it's an extra removal for control warrior that despite costing 8 mana, will make you kill any target in the board plus leaving in your side 2 decent bodies. I like it!
No one notices a (sometimes) small drawback this card can have, especially in arena: if you want to play him at turn 2 , and your opponent has a minion on board (coin'd/innervate'd or just a 1drop) you are FORCED to give it taunt. I mean , TBK synergy is cute but in all honesty if it said friendly minion I would've liked it more.

Not really. It's a class card.
Still, this card is awesome.

This is so overbudget, holy shit.
Nope.
I think this card is very good. Finally I can hit that Mana Wyrm hiding behind Mirror Image with my Fiery War Axe!
This with black knight in control warrior means you always get value out of tbk.
Like harrison with blingtron.

Somewhere Out there Many hundreds Of players are crying over the dust that used to be The Black Knight wishing they could go back
I knew i kept him for a reason
It's good when you want to taunt something behind an annoy-o-tron, so you can punch it with your face.
But i see alot of people already said that :P
My comments refer mostly to the wild format.
Remember those Zap-o-matics they hide behind annoyotrons form your MIGHTY AXE? Ha-ha AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA. DIE.
Thought you could hide your precious whirling zap-o behind an anoy-o-tron eh? Think again!!!
Edit: ninja'd by the rest of the thread. Q.Q
Oh wow, I totally missed that this guy has taunt in addition to the taunt battlecry. I'm definitely building a Dragon Wall(et) Warrior Deck.
Oh i did too, he does also have taunt.
And the idea of taunting a annoying enemy minion for TBK or to axe it is very diverse.
I like this card, better than Sunfury protector

Wow giving an enemy minion taunt is sick. This is going to see play for sure.
