Knight Haven

This strategy consists of maximizing a Knight’s potential with tanking buffs and unit-increasing cards. The Knight is a sturdy unit with the strongest stats per unit in the King of Nothing deck, making the increment of its initial troop count (3) the most effective use of a Farm.

In the early game, make sure to place an isolated Farm that can only feed your main Knight card. If fighting against the King of Nature, make sure to use as many Procreate cards as possible. In parallel, it's vital to stack as many Steel Coats on the unit as possible, making the main Knight of your kingdom a true tanker that can hold the front line for many seconds. King of Blood's Vampirism is also a powerful enchantment option in rounds where Steel Coat is not an option. For this build, do not scatter your resources on multiple melee plots.

While you're building your Knight, you should also work on a high-DPS backline. This can consist either of Towers or Ranged Troops, depending on the kings you're up against. It is recommended to pick a tower/ranged unit from another deck, so that you can maximize the use of key Nothing cards for this build (Knight, Steel Coat, Farm) while seizing the best of other kings. A Mangler combo'd with a Mercenary is a viable option. A backline of Wizards with diversified spells is another. Elves are viable, but you'll have to give up some valuable Procreate draws to make it work to its full potential.
