What it does
First strike (This creature deals combat damage before creatures without first strike.)
Protection from white (This creature can't be blocked, targeted, dealt damage, or enchanted by anything white.)
Battle doesn't need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don't ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don't ask why I fight.

Where it came from
Black Knight was originally printed in the Alpha and Beta sets of Magic: The Gathering, released by Wizards of the Coast in 1993 to pioneer the trading card game genre. The card was carried over into the Revised Edition, or Third Edition, released in 1994, which served as the first core set available in mass-market retail outlets. This era of the game was defined by a transition from a niche hobby to a global phenomenon, with the Revised Edition featuring updated white borders to distinguish it from the earlier, highly collectible printings.
The artwork for Black Knight was created by Christopher Rush, one of the most prolific and iconic early illustrators for the game. His design sought to capture the high-fantasy aesthetic of the early nineties, utilizing a stark, menacing composition that emphasized the card's 'protection from white' ability—a signature mechanic representing the knight's status as a dark, adversarial force. While the Revised Edition version is less rare than its predecessors, it remains a quintessential example of the game's foundational black-aligned creatures.
