What is the Dark Magician Knight? How Yugi Moto Uses This
combined with Sogen to Crush in a Joey Wheeler Warrior Duel Strategy!
If Yugi Moto where an archetype, magician would definitely
be the one that comes to mind the most often. If Kaiba were an archetype, the king
(I mean come on…Blue Eyes White Dragon is totally the king) is definitely what
you would use to describe him, and if Joey Wheeler was an archetype, you’re
looking at the warrior archetype hands down, just think about his warrior deck,
swamp battleguard, the flamed swordsman, even the Red Eyes Black Dragon is
something of a warrior dragon. If you want to really take this even further on,
Tea Gardner is most definitely the lover archetype, and Tristan more or less is
just a lost man that does not have an archetype. 
Anyways though, on to the Dark Magician Knight, this card
first appeared in one of the later seasons of Yugioh, and in hearing about this
card, and in writing about it here on darkmagiciandragon.com, it brings me back
to when I was a lot younger and when I was watching Yugioh on kids WB. I can
distinctly hear Yugi Moto saying “Dark Magician Knight I summon you” in that
deep, childish voice that he almost has. 
To refresh what I had said previously in this blog post, actually
this occurred during the “deck master” episodes, with Kaiba having the Blue
Eyes White Dragon, Joey having the flamed swordsman, and Yugi having the Dark
Magician…sounds like the magician, the warrior and the King Archetype to me.
Anyway, what happens in this episode is that Yugi and Joey Wheeler are paired
up together against an extremely powerful dragon monster, known as the Berserk
Dragon, which is the deck master of 5 of Seto Kaiba’s evil business rivals who
want to beat Yugioh in a card game. As the game progresses and gets towards the
end, Yugi finds himself getting his behind kicked alongside Joey, that is until
Joey fuses his Flamed Swordsman with Yugi’s dark magician in order to power up Dark
Magician and turn it into Dark Magician Knight, a warrior, which allows the
flamed swordsman to power up all warrior monsters on the field by 400 attack
points! To finish it off, Yugi calls out in the episode “Dark Magician Knight
Attack” like he does in every single episode, which ends the duel!
appearances have
been alongside the Dark Magician when she used the Ragnarok spell card in order
to wipe out the Powerful Egyptian God Card, the Winged Dragon of Ra, in a
single blast! My overall favorite episode with her however was when she uses
her most powerful and well known special ability, which is that she gains 300
attack points for every magician in her graveyard and in the graveyard, and
uses it to take out Arcana’s life points, a rare hunter set up by Marik to
crush Yugi Moto once and for all, in that she gains 300 attack points for both
Arcana’s Dark Magician and Yugi Moto’s Dark Magician, one of my all time
favorite episodes indeed involving the Dark Magician, video is included in the post!
