This card is treated as a Normal Monster while face-up on the field. While equipped with a "Noble Arms" Equip Spell Card, this card becomes an Effect Monster with this effect.
● This card becomes DARK and its Level is increased by 1. Once per turn, if you control no other monsters: You can Special Summon 1 "Noble Knight" monster from your Deck in face-up Defense Position, except "Noble Knight Medraut", and if you do, destroy 1 Equip Spell Card you control.
All right folks, after a two week intro to Cosmo
Blazer, with an in-depth look at the Fire Fist
Archtype, we continue to delve into the new set with
our Top 10 cards of the set countdown! Opening the
week is a new card to support the Noble Knight
Archtype. Noble Knight Medraut is a Light
attributed, Level 4, Warrior Monster, with 1700
attack and 1000 defense. Medraut strikes me as
being similar to a Gemini Monster. You don't have
to Summon him a second time to get his effect...
However, you do need to equip a Noble Arms Magic
Card to gain his effect. When equipped with said
Magic Card of sorts, Medraut becomes a Level 5
Monster, and his attribute changes from Light to
Dark. Furthermore, you're allowed to Special Summon
another Noble Knight Monster from your Deck, in
face-up Defense position, once per turn, if you
control no other Monsters. You have to destroy an
Equip Magic Card if you do, but note that it doesn't
specifically require it to be a Noble Arms card.
I like him, he has a respectable attack, has a
balanced trade for a new Monster, and can change his
own Level and Attribute, with a little help.
Obviously this is to make things like XYZ or
Synchro Summoning easier, and his 1700 attack isn't
bad to boot either. I'd be using at least one if I
were playing this Deck, maybe a second one, because
even if you were to Special Summon a second Medraut
by his own effect, and destroy the Equip Card on the
first one, that's a Rank 4 XYZ right there, or a
Rank 5 if you have a different card to spare, and
can equip another to the second one.

Traditional: 3/5 Light and Warrior are good

It's time for yet another of Pojo's infamous top
10 lists. This time its the top ten cards of Cosmo
Blazar. First up at Number 10, Noble Knight Medraut.
A level 4 LIGHT/Warrior monster with 1700/1000 for
ATK/DEF. They keep churning out these Noble Knights
and they keep getting a little better each time.
Medraut hits the field as a normal monster when it's
summoned, but gains an effect when it is equipped
with a "Noble Arms" equip card. It becomes a DARK
monster and gains a level, making it level 5. Once
per turn, if you control no other monsters, you can
special summon 1 Noble Knight monster from your deck
in defense position, then destroy 1 equip card you
control if you do that. You can use Noble Arms
Caliburn or Afuedutyr, get either of those effects,
then special summon a Noble Knight monster. If
you're lucky, you'll have Gawyan in your hand as
well, giving you three Knoble Knight monsters. It's
a LIGHT monster, a step away from Chaos monsters,
and able to team with Honest. This card helps the
Noble Knights swarm the field and Xyz really fast.
Medraut's stats are ok at best, but once it's
equipped with a Noble Arms card, the real fun
begins.

Today starts our top 10 list of the best cards from
Cosmic Blazar! Today we shall cover number 10 on our
list, which is another one of Arthur’s Knights of
the Round table; Modred! The son of the King!
Noble Knight Medraut
Light, Level 4, Warrior
This card is treated as a Normal Monster while
face-up on the field. While equipped with a "Noble
Arms" Equip Spell Card, this card becomes an Effect
Monster with this effect.
● This card becomes DARK and its Level is increased
by 1. Once per turn, if you control no other
monsters: You can Special Summon 1 "Noble Knight"
monster from your Deck in face-up Defense Position,
except "Noble Knight Medraut", and if you do,
destroy 1 Equip Spell Card you control.
1700/1000
I have to say…. Wow. This card does so much at once,
and can be a huge combo maker for the Noble Knights.
It allows the deck to do so much with each card that
is available to it.
First of all; we see that he is treated as a normal
monster as long as he doesn’t have an equip card
attached. This means that you can summon Gawayn
while he is on the field and go for an instant rank
4 xyz if you really want to.
However, once equipped things get interesting.
Basically, you can summon another noble knight from
your deck while it’s equipped; then you destroy the
equip spell. What’s really cool about this combo is
that if you destroy a Noble Arms; you can then
re-attach it to a Noble Knight you control.
Basically; this allows you to do one of two things:
1) Summon Medraut;
equip it and send the equip to summon Artorigus,
Gawayn, or Joan from your deck; re-equip the spell
to one of them and use its effect (if Arfeudutyr or
Cailburn), then xyz a rank 4
2) Summon Medraut;
equip it and send the equip spell to summon
Laundsallyn from your deck; re-equip the spell to
Medraut and use its effect (if Arfeudutyr or
Cailburn); then xyz a rank 5.
Basically, you have a rank 4 or 5 summoning monster
that can also recycle the effect of Arfudutyr to
destroy set cards or Cailburn to regain some life
points. This brings so much to the table for Noble
Knights that could even push them to be competitive.
This is one of those few cards that pushes an
archetype to the competitive stage.
Advanced: 4
It brings an entire archetype together and makes it
quite strong. It deserves a high rating.
Traditional: 2.5
A Chaos-fueled archetype; Warrior; and has the
ability to spam some more monsters? I could see
something working; as long as you don’t get OTK’ed
first.
Art 4: It’s part of the line of amazing TCG
exclusive art and it shows some of the history of
King Arthur through both the art and the effect. It
is Definitely one of the better arts in the game.

Today we are looking at card #10 on our top 10
countdown of Cosmo Blazer: “Noble Knight Medraut.”
“This
card is treated as a Normal Monster while face-up on
the field. While equipped with a "Noble Arms" Equip
Spell Card, this card becomes an Effect Monster with
this effect.
● This
card becomes DARK and its Level is increased by 1.
Once per turn, if you control no other monsters: You
can Special Summon 1 "Noble Knight" monster from
your Deck in face-up Defense Position, except "Noble
Knight Medraut", and if you do, destroy 1 Equip
Spell Card you control.”
He has
a great ability. When he is equipped with a “Noble
Arms” equip spell, you can special summon 1 “Noble
Knight” monster from your deck in face up defense
mode and destroy one equip card you control. This
little destruction effect can prove very beneficial
in the “Noble Knight” deck because most, if not all,
of the “Noble Arms” equip cards let you re-equip
them to another “Noble Knight” Monster when they are
destroyed. So this guy will grab almost any monster
you need right from the deck, and then equip that
same equip spell you just destroyed to him. That’s
pretty cool right? You just can’t have another
monster on the field when you use his effect, no big
deal.
Now
the effect is great, however, his stats are rather
bland. Thankfully when he is not equipped with a
“Noble Arms” spell card, not only does he get to be
treated as a normal monster (No fiendish chain!), he
also remains a light type so he benefits from
honest.
So, in
summary, I am excited to see where this archetype is
going. They have solid effects, balanced stats, and
function pretty well with a lot of already released
support. I haven’t seen a tier 1 build yet, but this
guy really adds to the consistency needed to make a
competitive deck.
Advanced: 4/5 in a “Noble Knight” deck.
Traditional: 1/5 this is an archetype that functions
best in advanced format.
Art: 5/5 (something about his art captivates me)

Noble Knight Medraut
Light/Warrior/Effect/LV4/1700/1000
This card is treated as a Normal Monster while
face-up on the field. While equipped with a "Noble
Arms" Equip Spell Card, this card becomes an Effect
Monster with these effects.
● This card becomes DARK and its Level is increased
by 1. Once per turn, if you control no other
monsters: You can Special Summon 1 "Noble Knight"
monster from your Deck in face-up Defense Position,
except "Noble Knight Medraut", and if you do,
destroy 1 Equip Spell Card you control.
Welcome to the POJO top 10 from Cosmo Blazer. At
number 10 is Noble Knight Medraut the next in the
slowly growing archetype. Noble Knight Medraut is a
strange card which acts similar to a Gemini Monster
except you don’t Second Summon it to get its effect
you give it a equip card. The effect is simple, but
can be powerful, the ability to special summon any
Noble Knight is a great effect, even if it goes in
DEF mode is a good thing. Sadly it will cost you a
Equip Spell but Noble Arms generally don’t mind
being destroyed.As a bonus if you do destroy the card
equipped to Noble Knight Medraut it will become a
level 4 again allowing you to Xyz Summon a Rank 4.
Overall Noble Knight Medraut is a good card for the
growing Noble Knight archetype and should easily see
play in Noble Knight decks
