Shadow Paladin (Crossroads of Destiny)

This is a list of cards seen in Crossroads of Destiny.

Background
Who are the Void Knights?

The Void Knights ( Boidokishi) are an elite group of dark knights tasked with protecting the dragon born out of shadows. Shadow Paladin has tasked them with this incredibly dangerous task due to their devotion to self-sacrifice, honor, and determination. They do not seek glory, or fame. Rather, they are content knowing that the Holy Nation and its two Life Force Dragons are kept safe. The Void Knights are so called due to their insistence on working within the shadows, perhaps even more so than the typical Shadow Paladin.

Unlike Oracle Think Tank's Starburst Guard, which is largely nameless and seeks the glory of victory, each Void Knight is seen as an individual, one who takes the oath to never seek fame or fortune. The Void Knights work as a team to ensure a safe future for Cray.

Who is the Darkburst Dragon?

This is the embodiment of, a dragon born out of the shadows within every sentient being's heart. In spite of this, the dragon, from what little has been seen of it, has no ill intent in its own heart.

It is the antithesis to, and may or may not be an ally of Starburst Dragon, the embodiment of life. The two dragons are occasionally seen together, but no one is sure whether the dragons are friendly to each other or not. This is largely because very little of the dragon of darkness has been seen.

Playstyle
The Void Knights rely on retiring their own allies in order to boost the vanguard. Their ace card, Darkburst Dragon, requires this sacrifice in order to increase the power of its own attacks. There is also Void Knight, Darkruler Dragon, who requires two rear-guards to be sacrificed in order to give it an extra critical and drive check. Units like Void Knight, Blaster Dark and Void Knight, Masquerade, can provide additional hand advantage to make it easier to pay the retire costs.

on the other hand, rely on weakening the opponent's columns by exchanging units for grade 0s from the deck, hand, or drop zone. Phantom Witch, Fianna, for example, can shut off your opponent's offensive options by forcing the opponent to call triggers from hand during their turn.
