The Black Knight is a minor antagonist in the 1975 iconic classic British comedy film Monty Python and the Holy Grail​.

He is a rogue knight clad in black, as his name suggests, who guards a tiny bridge for unknown reasons, challenging those who pass by to a duel, and then killing them.

Bio[]

Not even the other members of King Ivan's army know the truth behind this dark knight. His already fearsome strength is bolstered further by a staunch refusal to ever give up. He's so powerful that you might even expect him to be the final boss.

Special Powers[]

  • Superhuman Durability: The Black Knight is nigh-unstoppable in sheer determination, surviving wounds that would kill an ordinary man.

Skillset[]

  • Expert Swordsman: The Black Knight is an excellent swordsman whose skills have allowed him to best King Arthur.
  • Skilled Martial Artist: He is an excellent fighter, able to hold his own against such highly skilled fighters such as Knuckle Joe.

Boss Intro[]

The Black Knight walks onto his boss arena before drawing his sword and saying "None shall pass!"

Moveset[]

Move Description
Bash (バッシュ) The Knight bashes the opponent with the pommel of his sword with high speed and immense knockback. Knockback can be both vertical and angled, depending on how it lands. In general this move is swift and unpredictable, but suffers from a very short range.
Run Them Through (やり遂げる) The Knight rushes forward offscreen, before jumping back onscreen.
Slash (斬りつけ) The Knight readies himself, then slashes making a large shockwave in front of him. The hit itself deals strong knockback. Damage is also very high, however the slash itself has a very low range. The red shockwave inflicts high knockback, but is not as strong.
Jump Slash (ジャンプ斬り) Jumps into the air, swinging his sword downward from above.
Slash Up (斬り上げ) A large upward swing with his sword. After the attack, the Knight briefly faces away, allowing the player to attack him from the front.
Back Sweep (後方薙ぎ) Turns around, slashing behind him.
Piercing Kick (突破蹴) The Knight delivers a strong straight kick. Some characters can crouch underneath this attack to dodge.
Holy Hand Grenade (ホーリーハンドグレネード) The Knight throws a barrage of Holy Hand Grenades in the air. These can be detonated with vertical-based attacks. The grenades are quite difficult to avoid, despite being slow, but they are also one of the Knight's weakest attacks. The lower the health, the more grenades are thrown.

When defeated, the Knight's arms and legs fall off as his torso falls to the ground and says "Oh I see; running away, eh? You yellow bastard! Come back here and take what's coming to you! I'll bite your legs off!" as the scene fades out.

As an assist character[]

The Black Knight also appears as an assist character which can be unlocked after you defeat him. He moves across the stage slowly, attacking any nearby opponents with his sword. He either attacks with a single sword swing or a slow two-hit combo; both attacks are extremely powerful and can easily KO at low percents. While he can be attacked and defeated, his HP is relatively high, he can't be grabbed, and he only flinches from sufficiently strong attacks.

The Black Knight has three quotes:

  • "Here I go." when summoned.
  • "The Black Knight always triumphs!" when departing.
  • "Can't move!" when defeated.
