Hey. I'm not the best at playing a good knight, but that leaves me in a pretty good position to give newbie tips.

First off, it's Knight, not warrior. That'll probably help you search for more information, and faster. Also check out the Knight subforum. This topic might be moved there anyway, by a proactive forum admin.

Now then, Knights. You have your sword, you have your shield, you have bombs (maybe). When matched against a builder or archer, use jabs if they're trying to run, and slashes if they're cornered or distracted. Slashes are also good (but predictable) for waiting outside an enemy door or behind one of your team's doors. With archers, shield whenever you see them raise their bows at you. Knight vs. Knight combat is a bit trickier- Shielding will block jabs, jabbing will interrupt/clash with charged slashes, and slashes will break shields. It's like Rock Paper Scissors. The best way to win a Knight vs. Knight confrontation is to have more people on your side putting pressure on the enemy. Even a distracting builder can turn the tide.

Keep in mind that falling on an enemy from the tower walls will stun and damage them, leaving you able to finish them off. This is very useful for defending your front gates. Bombs are also rather nice, if you can afford them. jump and shield up while a bomb explodes in your hands to do a basic bombjump, which can let you take out unsuspecting archers. Otherwise, try "cooking" a bomb (holding onto it for a few seconds) and then throwing it into a group of enemies. You'll kill any builders and archers, and any knights that didn't have a chance to shield. If you hear hissing, get ready to shield, but beware- the enemy may just be using the bomb to trick you into shielding and pull off a quick slash before it goes off. Knight vs. Knight combat's rough like that.

Always go in with a plan, and allies if possible. Don't be afraid to retreat if you have 1/2 a heart and a lot of coins (back in your base, you can heal/buy bombs!). Don't just charge forward and die over and over, unless you're in an Unlimited Units server.

That's all I have. Maybe I'll come back with more. Good luck!

 

TYVM :d

 

Dont count on a lot of normal knight strategy working right now until knights get some tweaks. Expect slashes and jabs to frequently do no damage and the enemy to suddenly one shot you. You will also teleport around a decent bit.
