Knights (Black and White)

Does anyone have an effective white/black knight deck or know good cards for one? I would like to build one, but I have no experience in using knights and what cards are good for this type of deck. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advanced.

Stillmoon Cavalier and Black Knight are two very good knights.

On the white side there is White Knight and Paladin en-Vec

I had a Type 2 Knight deck for a while, though it didn't play very well... I'm thinking about giving a legacy knight deck a try, by focusing on protection with Painter's servants.

Some knights with protection are Stromgald Crusdare, White Shield Crusader, and Silver Knight

And if you like first/double strike, there is Knight of Meadowgrain and Kinsbaile Cavalier

There's plenty more out there, this is just to give you some ideas of where you can go with a knight deck. There is also plenty of flanking knights, if thats your thing.

a 2/2 for 2W first strike is good as is, but with the 3/3 attacking alone is pretty legit, pumping up any of your knights.

There are a lot of good knights at two CMC: Knight of Meadowgrain, Knight of the White Orchid, White Knight, Silver Knight, White Shield Crusader, and many black analogues of those knights. The problem is that you get sort of a mana hiccup with so many creatures at two mana: first turn- do nothing, second turn- knight, third turn- knight for two mana, one mana goes wasted... It gets even worse when you have mana costs of WW and BB fighting to be cast a the same spot on your mana curve.

To help this, play Aether Vial.
