The OP Knight Dragon is an Ultima Tier animal that evolves from the Black Dragon or King Dragon (The Canon ones in actual Mope.io).

## Appearance

Its base appears to be that of the canon mope.io skin, Knight Dragon, except it has quite a few changes: for one, its back is covers with bright green lights that appear to be glowing.

Also, it now has not only non-black eyes, but it also has eyes that aren't even the same color: when turning the image on the template upside down (and therefore seeing the OP Knight Dragon from its point of view), its left eye is red and its right eye is blue. Similar to almost all mope.io animals, it has one white circle in each of its eyes, both of these white circles acting as eyeballs.

The OP Knight Dragon also has two bright green dragon horns on its head. In between them is a silver spike, and there are multiple silver spikes behind the first one.

It has green wings with four crystals coming out of both.

## Technical

The OP Knight Dragon has several powerful abilities and stats that make it an easy animal to use when dominating a server and defeating opponents in combat:

* OP Knight Dragons have very high HP, even compared to their equals.
* Their special abilities include a single-file Shardstream, and EMP, and a Camouflage ability.
	+ Their Shardstream is their main ability. The crystals are electric, dealing extra damage to victims and cause a shivering effect, weakening your foes severely. Uniquely, unlike the Cobalt Night Dragon, the OP Knight Dragon's shardstream never grows more segments, most likely due to how crippling its power is to enemies. This ability takes 6 seconds to reload.
	+ Their second ability is EMP. Despite being a secondary ability, it is not unlocked with the OP Knight Dragon; In order to get it, you must get 100M as the OP Knight Dragon. Upon doing so, you can activate the ability with the (S) key. It is very powerful, being able to disable enemy abilities for 10 seconds. Aside from this, it does little damage on its own, but victims who are close enough to the OP Knight Dragon when the ability is used will become electrocuted, which can take a full health BD down to 50% HP (provided that no other damage or healing occurs within the process). At 150M, you can upgrade your EMP between more damage, more range, or more disability time. This ability has a reload time of 15 seconds.
	+ Their third ability- which *is* unlocked with the animal- is camouflage. Upon holding the (Q) key, the OP Knight Dragon will quickly, almost instantly vanish, and instead being replaced by a crystal. A randomizer will choose the crystal texture and size, making it difficult if possible to tell a camouflaged OP Knight Dragon from a real crystal or gem. This ability alone is passive only, simply making the OP Knight Dragon look like an element of the Crystal Caves. However, this ability can be used offensively, as playing it right and patiently can make for a perfect ambush. Plus, this ability works in all types of water, so you can easily camp in a lake until your prey walks right into your jaws.
* OP Knight Dragons will not burn in the Desert and Volcanic Biomes nor freeze in the Arctic, so there is a very wide variety of biomes that the OP Knight Dragon can go to, the only exceptions being the Aether and Space due to not having a flight ability.
* OP Knight Dragon actually has the most tailbite damage out of any animal in the game.
	+ However, its equals have very high HP, so even then it still makes a very little (yet noticible) difference.

## Strategy

### As the OP Knight Dragon

You have two choices: be a mini or rule the server.

### Against the OP Knight Dragon

Your best hope is that they'll team with you or they're mini, especially if you're Black Dragon or anything below that. If they *don't* team with you, your options of survival are quite low.

First, hope that you're a pro at 1v1 arena. Unless they're a pure noob, the OP Knight Dragon is near impossible to defeat outside of 1v1 arena (unless you're Ultima Tier), so if you're pro at 1v1 arena, you may be able to defeat them. The real problem, though, is

1. are they also a pro at 1v1? If so, are they *more* professional than you?

2. even if you could beat them easily, will they accept the 1v1 request?

King Dragon won't have an easy time defeating the OP Knight Dragon. The King Dragon's firestream won't do much, as the OP Knight Dragon, like all Ultima Tier animals (excluding the Divine White Dragon), is highly fire resistant. However, it is less fire resistant than the Divine White Dragon, which can play in your favor should you try to fight an OP Knight Dragon. If you're a King Dragon, keep trying to tail-slap the OP Knight Dragon and bite their tail while keeping your own safe. *If* you actually manage to get them low enough HP to make them run away, act fast. Repeatedly bite their tail as much as you can, and don't let them get near any caves or hiding holes, as they can go into them and hide.

The Predator will probably die quickly in a fight against the OP Knight Dragon. Its bite is strong, but it has the least resistances out of any Ultima Tier animal (having about 10% fire resistance, 0% electricity resistance, 5% stun resistance, and 20% ice resistance). However, if you're unfortunate enough to be stuck in a fight with an OP Knight Dragon as the Predator, use your bite ability as much as you can, and don't hesitate to fly away. So try using Cobalt Night Dragon and Divine White Dragon for attacking the OP Knight Dragon.

## Trivia

* The OP Knight Dragon was Torque\_Twister's first ever mope.io conception made after the Golden Age Update of mope.io
* The OP Knight Dragon is older than the Cobalt Night Dragon, and yet Cobalt is the more famous one.
* The OP Knight Dragon was ONCE called the "Knight Dragon OP" by accident.
* Somehow, the OP Knight Dragon was made in an "original meme" remix project.
* The OP Knight Dragon's second design replaced the red eye with a pink eye, and the blue eye with a cyan eye.
	+ And of course, that was changed.
* While there is an OP Knight Dragon animal, there is a character made by Torque\_Twister who is not only an OP Knight Dragon, but he was the first OP Knight Dragon.
	+ This Character is named Opedex.
	+ This is also similar to how there is a Cobalt Night Dragon animal and a character who's a Cobalt Night Dragon named Cobalt.
* Torque\_Twister considers the OP Knight Dragon as "Underrated."
	+ The only other ones he considers underrated are The Harvey Doombringer and The Predator.
* The OP Knight Dragon had a scrapped ability of being able to teleport by clicking on the map.
	+ While the OP Knight Dragon can not do this anymore, the spudy and Cobalt can do this.
		- Gyroven can also teleport by clicking on a place in the map.
* OP Knight Dragons are the second least fire resistant Ultima Tier animals, with the first least fire resistant being The Predator.
	+ On the other hand, Galactic Dragons are the most fire resistant animals in the entire game.
		- This makes sense, as they literally live among the stars.
			* Do I smell an Among Us reference?
				+ Oh no that can't be forgiven
				+ Kinda sus, among the stars among the ejected impostors...
