Whenever I see Noble Knights I have to get up in there. I give these cards my utmost attention with great detail of scrutiny for a reason - I love these cards.

In terms of flavour, well, the card hasn't any, really. I can't find a single tie this has with Athurian Mythology. The only thing I can conceive of this being flavourful is a simple stable boy or something, but that isn't really significant enough to be placed on such a card yielding the name of the Noble Knights. Was this the result of a Picture to Concept thing? I really wished you'd have done more research into it.

In terms of effect, it is complicated. The nature you've gave it is completely different to other Geminis as this is a Normal Monster in your Deck. I know why, to be a target for Medraut, that's a good idea. Also it allows this to serve as Rabbit fodder if you run the bastard in a Deck. The unlocked effect is confusing, because you do not specify how you can activate it. Does the effect trigger hen you Summon it and unlock the abilities? Does it activate when Equipped with a Noble Arms card? I don't think that it is able to even be used as it stands. However, the effect itself is too much for a simple Gemini monster - being able to bring any Noble Knight from your Deck or search a Noble Arms would be fine as a stand-alone ability, but this has no cost. So, it is unfair.

Overall I am a little bit disappointed in the card. It seems completely astray from the Noble Knights, yet potentially breaks them.
