Strategy Article
General Knights strategy is on the Knights page.
Sir Vander is great in games with lots of Knight attacks going around—he'll get trashed soon enough when he duels an opponents' Knight, and will Upgrade himself into a Gold! However, if he's the only Knight around, he's not so great... unless you plan to use a trash for benefit card on him.
