Fun fact: In his boss fight, in the Japanese version of Path of Radience, something goes wrong with his teleport power that leaves him weaker then he'd normally be, which is how Ike was able to beat him in PoR. In the English version, the Black Knight, realizing that he didn't kill Greil at his prime, decided to go EASY on Ike in his boss fight, to let Ike get stronger. So yes, the Black Knight is so badass, that even when he's holding back and letting you beat him, Ike STILL almost loses.
I prefer the english reasoning. i like the thought of the black knights ultimate wish being simply to be able to fight his teacher at his very best so he lets ike live until the moment he matches his fathers power.

Not since the days of Sigurd have we had a lord as brutally powerful as Ike, and you absolutely needed someone as powerful and devastating as the Black Knight to match him.
+Meta Knight Considering that Sigurd is at least as strong as Ike is (if not still better) I'd say Sigurd'd still win. Now Hector vs the Black Knight would have been pretty damn epic.
+Meta Knight Issue is that the Black Knight only has three of his skills maxed out on any difficulty you face him in: Strength, Skill and Defense. I know his max HP is 70 (this is also his max HP in RD) while his Luck and Speed cap out at 35 (which is the same max stats in RD). With 35 Speed in PoR, Ike is totally outclassed as he would get doubled in just one turn and lose the fight if he can't trigger Aether once per battle. Also, unless you remove the Black Knight's invulnerability to weapons not named Ragnell (if you're using PoR Black Knight), Hector isn't even doing anything to the Black Knight even WITH a hammer and all I know Hector's speed cap isn't enough to prevent the BK from killing him. Also, you need 32 speed at the least to avoid being doubled by the Black Knight if he has max speed (BK's max speed in PoR and RD is 35).
***** With Renewal active (heal's user), Alondite able to attack at a range and Nihil to negate opposing skills not named Parity, Nihil or Mantle, the Black Knight is still going to give Hector a really hard fight where BK can still win as RD BK can still double Hector while being faster. Sigurd is better off than Hector though the drop in defense for speed might not be that great in the end.
CipherJin *PoR BK > Hector Reasons: -Outside of hacking, game mechanics make it so the BK can't 'lose' except during a scripted battle. -BK's stats are superior to Hector's at base and at max. With maxed HP, Strength, Skill, Speed, Luck, Defense and Resistance, BK still outclasses Hector if he was also stat capped. BK's max stats are approximately 70/30/20/30/35/35/30(+5)/27 for HP/Str/Mag/Skill/Spd/Lck/Def/Res by looking at Serene's Forest. So even non-blessed, PoR BK would still double Hector and have a weapon advantage. Base PoR BK's stats are still really high even if these stats are him holding back: 60/30/17/30/27/11/30(+5)/22. -Alondite can attack from a distance (though Luna can't trigger then), combined with BK's ability to double Hector makes Hector struggle to deal with BK even if he does more damage per hit than the BK can if possible. Overall: It's best that we don't compare characters from different games that aren't similar since stats and weapon effects (stats) are different per game. Yes I'm aware that Armads has a Might of 20+ in its origin game.
Still the most badass villain in the entire franchise. Dude was just so imposing and threatening throughout the whole game. Absolutely loved his rivalry with ike as well.
The biggest dissapointment is that this track doesn't continue playing during the duel in the castle outside of combat. If the execution was better we would have heard the entire track constantly and the atmosphere would have been that much better.
Ahhhh, this theme. I remember this theme. It first played when the Black Knight moved to and killed one of my units as I was trying to rush past him to the escape point. That was when I knew the true fear that this music brought.
Black Knight: "Did you never think that using your Father's techniques on the one who killed him would be futile?" Ike: "My father robbed himself of using his stronger arm; if he hadn't, he wouldn't have lost, especially to the likes of YOU!" Black Knight: "Hahaha...you think so? Let us test your "stronger arm," then...Come, Son of Gawain...show me your might...!" Best theme in all of Fire Emblem. Best villain in all of Fire Emblem. Best fight dialogue in all of Fire Emblem. Best everything.
I just remember playing radiant dawn in the chapter where micaiah is alone and BK pops to save the day. All those poor low-level enemies that got wrecked by Eclipse while this theme was playing. BK is just too badass.
***** It wasn't even a "theory" - the Black Knight (at least the version used in gameplay, cutscenes use all kinds of ridiculous Black Knights including one called IID_BLACKKNIGHT) and General Zelgius have the exact same stats in Path of Radiance in every regard, from bases, to caps, to weapon experience - everything. It was a spoiler for dataminers, as you can never normally see Zelgius' stats. Unfortunately, they never thought (until RD at least) to put in special flavour text if the Black Knight was defeated before it was meant to be possible - ergo: by removing Skill 91 (Blessed Armour) from him with debug or something.
I agree, that would have been a much better "HOLY SHIT" moment than Ranulf randomly coming in after a chapter and saying "Ike, I know who the Black Knight is, let me spoil it for you without a proper climactic reveal!"
KopperNeoman General Zelgius never even appears on the battlefield in Path of Radiance, most people wouldn’t know that. Not unless they pay attention to data mines or are data miners themselves.
Aether activates "great, at least i will recover some hea..." -BK evades both Sol and Luna hits- "wait...he can evade Aether!?" -Proceeds to Luna Ike for a beautiful 48 dmg hit, almost killing Ike- ...5 turns later "Ok he's has 6 hp left, i'll take him down next tu..." -Nasir appears, fight ends, I end up with Ena in my team- ...and this is why i love that fight
BK’s speed being too high to double even with max speed Ike while also being high enough to double a speed screwed Ike… max strength Ike only doing 9 damage means you probably can’t beat him within 5 turns without skills… Aether is rng-dependent and Wrath puts you at risk of dying to Luna… reinforcements that come in and will either heal him or kill Mist if she hasn’t been sworded up or at least trained, meaning after turn 3 Ike’s heals aren’t as guaranteed… fun this is
One word, EPIC. When I first encountered the Black Knight in PoR, I broke into goosebumps, but when I started to control him and hear this music, I started to shiver.
some might have heard this when their units fought the Black Knight in chapter 11 or 23 not me i stayed the fuck away from that guy and his fucking pink wave shooting sword at all costs i heard it because he attacked one of tanith's reinforcements it was actually kind of hilarious
"I'll have Mordecai recruit Zihark, then he can stay near the house and take the Black Knight in beast form. He can totally handle it." He didn't handle it. At all.
"Oh, I might use Ike to attack the Black Knight. There may be some special kind of scripted battle.." Nope, eclipse-critted and out, roasted with a custom death quote after that. Much bad.
I always make it a habit to check where my units are relative to that center house in Chapter 11 before putting anyone in the boss's range. I do find it kind of funny how you just watch this miniaturized house door creak open and them suddenly BK. Did he have to duck down really low and sidle to get out of there?
+Cynical And I always give Ike a Wind Edge for that reason. Special pre-battle convo done to get that horribly voiced memory sequence set? Done. Soren's already used Calill's Meteor to attack Mickey and set things up for the extended epilogue? Great. Get Heron Reyson in to sing a Galdr and backpedal the frick away! The amount of prep work for the final endgame/epilogues with minimal difficulty is insane looking back at it. More so if you boss/healer/BEXP abuse to max out stats and make 3-7/3-13/3-E a lot more interesting/challenging for yourself like I (foolishly) did my last run.
Heard it on my first run in Ch. 11. The house in the center of the map seemed like a good place to dig yourself in and rout most enemy units. Then BK spawned right between Rhys and Soren...
I like how Ike has no personal beef with the final boss. The black knight is HIS nemesis, killing him is his primary motivation. Same with mist, but she cant equip ragnell
Gregster 101 i more feel like i wanna have Tibarn in the game since hes one of my absolute favourites in the entire series, eben though the BK is pretty Bad-ass too xD (actually i love all of the Tellius-chars O.o)
Well, it's not like he was a "villian" per se. He's an antagonist by definition, I guess. But he's not actually been evil. He just had different ideals.
I don't know why, but I want to see Chrom and Ike vs Walhart and Black Knight. I don't know why, I just feel like that would be the sickest 2v2 in fire emblem history for me.
I really love modern FE using a dynamic map theme that transitions to a combat theme for fights, but between this theme and _Softly, With Grace,_ I really miss the style of combat theme that’s just a faster, more menacing character theme…
One of my favorite Soundtracks Lara (from Legends of Arkensius) vs Black Knight quotes: Black Knight: Who are you? Lara: My name is Lara, Crown Princess of Edellen, also known as the Divine One! And may I know who you are, Mortal? Black Knight: I am the Black Knight, and I am here for battle! Show me your strength, Lara! Lara: I accept your challenge, Black Knight! Come on, bring it on!
The Final Fantasy series is known for having some of the coolest sounding RPG music but wow they wish they had hired this composer, incredible theme for a boss, and beautiful music throughout the whole game.
this song always reminds me of his badass skill eclipse. It doesnt matter who you are, what you are, it doesnt matter how good your sword skills are, if the black knight uses eclipse, you're going to die.
i love this theme ^^ i could imagine it playing if you could fight against Greil before he cut his arm, hard to imagine there was someone even stronger than the BK!
I first heard this theme on that chapter where he just came out of the house I was like "he just came out of his vacation. I made a mistake placing ike there" luckily Ike dodged his attack and I was Like "HELL NO!" so I got ike to run and got everyone to escape, yeah that guy is no joke, and before you say he's easy, at that point in time the game is programmed to have the black knight impossible to beat, even with RNG manipulation.
The turn he walks out of that horrible house, he also gets to move and attack. My poor sweet Zihark was murdered before he even knew it was happening...
Black Knight: "Let us test your 'stronger arm,' then...Come, Son of Gawain...Show me your might...!" Best quote by Black Knight.........Ever. No, not even "'Tis only a flesh wound." compares to it. :P
@balbarith45 It wasn't a translation error for the Black Knight's naming in Brawl, but a localization mistake. He's known as the Dark Knight in Japanese sources, but apparently this was overlooked during Brawl's localization process, even though he's called the Black Knight on his own trophy. Localization and translation are two different things, but you had the right idea. And I don't see how they screwed up his theme in Brawl when they used the exact original version from Path of Radiance.
@ablon008 That's true, you can deal 27 points of damage to the Black Knight if it lands as critical, but Luna will kill easily if it lands. Resolve and Wrath, Resolve and Vantage, Wrath and Vantage, these are usefull to use because Ike will be able to attack first and most likely land a critical-hit before the Black Knight can attack. Miracle is usefull if Ike can have it because it will halve damage from Luna allowing Ike to battle for one more turn before healing, but Mist is needed though.
Anyone JUST NOW notice that the Black Knight is in the background of the Path of Radiance GC game case cover? Along with the Final Boss's dragon under of and Radiance?
-At the port "Ok, lesse, ill send some troops over there and recruit Zihark...Ok advance to the boat, Ike go around slaughter...wait...what the... *Black Knight comes out* " OH FUCK. Ok, RUN! OH GOD! SOREN, NO! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD IKE GET TO THE BOAT!"
@clankb2o5 I answered some question on "The Black Knight" of my videos. Summing it up: Ike obviously Lord and lvl. 20, try to drill (or level her normally) Mist so she becomes a Valkyrie, leveling should become easier as she can ride a horse and using swords to defend herself. Try getting her Valkyrie lvl. 10 untill this epic battle. She'll be able to defend herself against the units that keep appearing in the chamber where Ike and BK have their duell. Even low class healing staffs are fine now.
@zephiel123 Against Ashnard a combination from Resolve, Wrath, and Adept work perfect with Ike. Resolve and Wrath are an instant kill, but one of those with Adept are also instant killers. They can kill Ashnard faster than Aether can in one turn.
@RikoZerame ROY. Roy's the only character whose father is still alive, but we don't get to know anything about his mom. You can make your own theories about it in Fire Emblem (Blazing Sword), but in Roy's own game there's never hinted that his mom is dead or anything, so since Eliwood survived the war with Bern, Roy would be the only FE character that doesn't lose his parents.
and that's why i said i ended up WITH Ena on my team Nasir just went in and pretty much said "oh you wanna kill the BK?, too bad, the place is going down and i'm dead"
@hyr0gl1ph The song is in Brawl. The appearance of the Black Knight is limited to a collectible trophy and stickers. Besides, Radiant Dawn is a sequel to Path of Radiance. *facepalm*
You know what's funny, I compare this situtation to Vaas and Hoyt from Far Cry 3, Vaas like BK was the one you'll remember the most after playing the game (and they both or fought and supposselly killed by you around the end of the middle portion of the game) while Hoyt is like Ashnard (Final enemy to kill, the boss of the other character, and the one you least care about and wish Vaas/BK were the final boss in a Twist)
@2342z well, as I said, it was based on the situation, one was a hard, luck-based fight, the other was easily-controlled if you stood on the defense tile
@ganonslayer01 LOL that brings back bad memories, that happened to me too on when I first played that chapter (BK showing up and killing Soren who I stupidlly left in his attack range thinking he would dodge till I saw the 100% hit rate, I never use guides in game's like FE besides Secret stories and hidden items are), I ended up restarting the chapter extremely pissed off (in all Fire Emblem, I always complete a playthrough with all the character and end up restarting chapters alot).
I had maxed out Ike in everything and was in complete control of this battle, but Aether just wouldn't activate and the battle dragged on until we were interrupted. At that point I couldn't be arsed to play the whole level over again.
Actually that's a great idea, I never did like the whole "grind til OP" opportunities you could get when you can fight an infinite amount of random encounters on the overworld map with FE8/13, if it's abused, it trivializes the strategy aspect of the game when you can roflstomp the enemy just by moving your guys out there in the open. Capping the amount of levels one can gain by a reasonable amount per every few chapters would prevent that kind of abuse.
@zephiel123 If I'm right I did it on my friend's file not on my game. I am not sure if it is possible but those who say they did it before probably hacked their game because I'm trying to solve this question myself. Resolve can only be equipped out of battle not in battle, but their is a semi-base preperation before you fight the Black Knight so I guess that's how my friend did it because Ike would need to hold that scroll. Wrath and Adept work very well as a skill combination against him.
@DarkHaloWarsArbiter technically, the black knight is stronger in RD than PoR, his stats are better, however the situation he is placed in makes him a cakewalk, someone did an exhibition using USBgecko or something along those lines to hack two black knight's stats to make a PoR vs. RD match
Awakening was fun, but I hope they go back to the whole next level, next level, Oh you did a certain something or beat the last level quick Gaiden chapter for you Formula, I miss it so (Plus Not giving us FE 12 really pissed me off)

Correct
Hello everybody!
This video has OVER 9000!!!! views now.
Thank you for watching the video and I hope you continue enjoying the music.
Still look at Dragon ball?
That wasn't even your final form yet.
Whenever I think of the Papal Guards of Assassin's Creed:Brotherhood, this music comes to mind.
I first heard this theme on that chapter where he just came out of the house
I was like "he just came out of his vacation. I made a mistake placing ike there" luckily Ike dodged his attack and I was Like "HELL NO!" so I got ike to run and got everyone to escape, yeah that guy is no joke, and before you say he's easy, at that point in time the game is programmed to have the black knight impossible to beat, even with RNG manipulation.
TheKHfan358over3d hes easy :^)
The turn he walks out of that horrible house, he also gets to move and attack.
My poor sweet Zihark was murdered before he even knew it was happening...
I love that Smash Ultimate uses this exact version of the song.
This appears in smash brawl
This gets the blood flowin'
0:32 best part
I haven't played this series, nice track!
This song is epic.
0:06 we can hear His Father's Son, which is basically happy merry greil is alive theme, in this theme and it's so cool
A very epic battle theme...
And definitely worthy of a character like the Black Knight! :D
Black Knight: "Let us test your 'stronger arm,' then...Come, Son of Gawain...Show me your might...!"
Best quote by Black Knight.........Ever.
No, not even "'Tis only a flesh wound." compares to it. :P
I'm not sure what it is about this song. It just seems to fitting for the times we live in.
Easily the best theme in the game, IMO.
The Black Knight will be in The Eternals movie and Kit Harington has been cast!
(Radiant Dawn)
I could have an epic boss battle with the Black Knight, or I could just a hammer; why does that work - Bismix
@balbarith45 It wasn't a translation error for the Black Knight's naming in Brawl, but a localization mistake. He's known as the Dark Knight in Japanese sources, but apparently this was overlooked during Brawl's localization process, even though he's called the Black Knight on his own trophy. Localization and translation are two different things, but you had the right idea.
And I don't see how they screwed up his theme in Brawl when they used the exact original version from Path of Radiance.
@ablon008 That's true, you can deal 27 points of damage to the Black Knight if it lands as critical, but Luna will kill easily if it lands. Resolve and Wrath, Resolve and Vantage, Wrath and Vantage, these are usefull to use because Ike will be able to attack first and most likely land a critical-hit before the Black Knight can attack. Miracle is usefull if Ike can have it because it will halve damage from Luna allowing Ike to battle for one more turn before healing, but Mist is needed though.
“The son of Gawain… Ike. He… now… is my prey.”
Anyone JUST NOW notice that the Black Knight is in the background of the Path of Radiance GC game case cover? Along with the Final Boss's dragon under of and Radiance?
Oh, they go down together? Ah. That makes sense.
-At the port
"Ok, lesse, ill send some troops over there and recruit Zihark...Ok advance to the boat, Ike go around slaughter...wait...what the...
*Black Knight comes out*
" OH FUCK. Ok, RUN! OH GOD! SOREN, NO! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD IKE GET TO THE BOAT!"
@clankb2o5 I answered some question on "The Black Knight" of my videos.
Summing it up: Ike obviously Lord and lvl. 20, try to drill (or level her normally) Mist so she becomes a Valkyrie, leveling should become easier as she can ride a horse and using swords to defend herself. Try getting her Valkyrie lvl. 10 untill this epic battle. She'll be able to defend herself against the units that keep appearing in the chamber where Ike and BK have their duell. Even low class healing staffs are fine now.
Listen closely to this version and the version in raidiant dawn.
theres slight diffrences. and this one sounds so much better
What? A crossover with Fire Emblem? I totally have to look that up.
yea i would be pretty damn happy
@zephiel123 Against Ashnard a combination from Resolve, Wrath, and Adept work perfect with Ike. Resolve and Wrath are an instant kill, but one of those with Adept are also instant killers. They can kill Ashnard faster than Aether can in one turn.
Black Knight
When you see him... You'll shit brix.
My thoughts exactly.
@RikoZerame ROY. Roy's the only character whose father is still alive, but we don't get to know anything about his mom. You can make your own theories about it in Fire Emblem (Blazing Sword), but in Roy's own game there's never hinted that his mom is dead or anything, so since Eliwood survived the war with Bern, Roy would be the only FE character that doesn't lose his parents.
and that's why i said i ended up WITH Ena on my team
Nasir just went in and pretty much said "oh you wanna kill the BK?, too bad, the place is going down and i'm dead"
@BeyondGodOfEverythin Try not to think about it. Let's just say the term "shitstorm" would be the understatement of the century.
@hyr0gl1ph The song is in Brawl. The appearance of the Black Knight is limited to a collectible trophy and stickers.
Besides, Radiant Dawn is a sequel to Path of Radiance. *facepalm*
You know what's funny, I compare this situtation to Vaas and Hoyt from Far Cry 3, Vaas like BK was the one you'll remember the most after playing the game (and they both or fought and supposselly killed by you around the end of the middle portion of the game) while Hoyt is like Ashnard (Final enemy to kill, the boss of the other character, and the one you least care about and wish Vaas/BK were the final boss in a Twist)
Yeah i just looked it up. They said it will be set in Modern times.
@2342z well, as I said, it was based on the situation, one was a hard, luck-based fight, the other was easily-controlled if you stood on the defense tile
magaman was another great character to add viliger was funny but i have a feeling his move set is going to be OP
@df3guy13 He is in the seaquil Radiant Dawn for the wii
hope to see black knight in FE Heroes
Noi9er Well then...
wish granted
When you overclass Alm and see him walking menacingly towards his foe.
This should be Black Knight's boss theme in any crossover game.
best fire emblem in all of fire emblem
Yeah, sorry about that. I didn't see the "three months ago" till after I posted >_>...
@ganonslayer01 LOL that brings back bad memories, that happened to me too on when I first played that chapter (BK showing up and killing Soren who I stupidlly left in his attack range thinking he would dodge till I saw the 100% hit rate, I never use guides in game's like FE besides Secret stories and hidden items are), I ended up restarting the chapter extremely pissed off (in all Fire Emblem, I always complete a playthrough with all the character and end up restarting chapters alot).
Totally agree.
I had maxed out Ike in everything and was in complete control of this battle, but Aether just wouldn't activate and the battle dragged on until we were interrupted. At that point I couldn't be arsed to play the whole level over again.
its a big list but i will send you a PM since im sure people are tired of watching our convo with the video
I always thought this is one of the best songs of fire emblem...
@RikoZerame
Perhaps not, but "To Challenge Ashnard" likely is!
He means you have to unlock the song itself. You start with the stage.
Actually that's a great idea, I never did like the whole "grind til OP" opportunities you could get when you can fight an infinite amount of random encounters on the overworld map with FE8/13, if it's abused, it trivializes the strategy aspect of the game when you can roflstomp the enemy just by moving your guys out there in the open. Capping the amount of levels one can gain by a reasonable amount per every few chapters would prevent that kind of abuse.
@zephiel123 If I'm right I did it on my friend's file not on my game. I am not sure if it is possible but those who say they did it before probably hacked their game because I'm trying to solve this question myself. Resolve can only be equipped out of battle not in battle, but their is a semi-base preperation before you fight the Black Knight so I guess that's how my friend did it because Ike would need to hold that scroll. Wrath and Adept work very well as a skill combination against him.
@DarkHaloWarsArbiter technically, the black knight is stronger in RD than PoR, his stats are better, however the situation he is placed in makes him a cakewalk, someone did an exhibition using USBgecko or something along those lines to hack two black knight's stats to make a PoR vs. RD match
@TubeYouber
"Hahahaha...You think so?
Let us test your 'stronger arm, then. Come, Son of Gawain...Show me your might...!"
Awakening was fun, but I hope they go back to the whole next level, next level, Oh you did a certain something or beat the last level quick Gaiden chapter for you Formula, I miss it so (Plus Not giving us FE 12 really pissed me off)
