I think in most cases I'd just let the Knight die.

This is would actually be an extremely powerful card in competitive play. 2 for a 2/2 first strike is on par with White Knight, and the damage prevention ability is arguably superior to White Knight's protection from black.

5/5 for having reminder text on how to do the Hokey Pokey.

Shivan Meteor... Apparently, doing the Hokey Pokey grants you invincibility from a meteor strike.

Well, it looks like the Hokey Pokey really is what it's all about.

The reminder text is wrong. The song is "you do the Hokey Pokey and you turn yourself about", The turning around is separate from the Hokey Pokey.

What if I mindslavered my opponent who had this card and mox lotus in play? Could I force him to do the hokey pokey for ever? :D

My friend Steve would be all about "Knight of the Worm." Six years ago, anyway.

"Shivan Meteor... Apparently, doing the Hokey Pokey grants you invincibility from a meteor strike. "

If I read this card correctly too, it'll also work against plague zombies. ::sighs deeply and smiles:: we're gonna survive the zombiepocalypse...we're all gonna be okay.

Very efficient card. Basically has psuedo-regenerate and first strike on a 2/2 body for WhiteWhite.

I can totally imagine this knight doing the Hokey Pokey while being sent Into the Maw of Hell and being Lightning Bolted and being ran over by a Nova Chaser and still somehow alive and well.

My favorite par tis that they give rules text on how to do the hokey-pokey.

If allowed, this might be one of the best Pauper Cube cards ever. Thank the Obzedat my play group is lenient ^_^. So powerful for 2 mana.

Also, yes, the reminder text is the best part.

Why cant we have this ability in standard! :D I would much prefer to see a room with people doing the Hokey Pokey than people sitting there all cheesy with an indestructible creature at the local FNM. :D

WE NEED A KNIGHT OF THE HARLEM SHAKE!!!

So this is what the Knight of the Holy Nimbus was doing back in Time Spiral to auto-regen himself, eh? XD

What's the equivalent of KotHN's "Opponent pays 2 to prevent regeneration" ability? Punching the hokey-pokey-er in the face?

BEST. CARD. EVER.

Also, Axelle, who cares about how good it is? it lets you do the freaking hokey pokey.
