Knight Man

Knight Man (ナイトマン) is a Robot Master from Mega Man 6 designed as a medieval knight. He was created for combat with balanced attack and defense, and it is said that he has defeated over 1000 robots in duel. Knight Man is equipped with the Knight Crush, a strong flail (sometimes called mace or morning star) with a long chain, in his left arm which allows him to attack from great distances. In his right arm he holds a resistant knight shield. In the First Annual Robot Tournament, he was reprogrammed by Mr. X to help him conquer the world. Because of his spirit of chivalry and honor, Yamato Man has great respect for him, and ironically, his weakness is the Yamato Spear.

Strategy

 * Be careful when Knight Man throws his mace. He throws it at exactly where Mega Man was when he started the attack. Jumping is the best way to avoid this.
 * Determine where Knight Man will jump, because, after jumping, he will attempt to land right on you. Slide out of the way to dodge his landing.

Trivia

 * If Knight Man is attacked with the Yamato Spear or a charged attack from the Power Adaptor, it will damage Knight Man himself since those two attacks ignore defenses.
 * Centaur Man in the Rockman 6 Manga, is actually a long-haired woman, and has a crush on Knight Man.
 * The extra part "Hammer Body" from Mega Man: Battle & Chase resembles Knight Man and can attack with a giant flail.
