Tell me your favourite knight from King Arthur legends and win games

I would say Mordred, Arthur's bastard that he sired with his sister, not sure if he counts as a knight, but I like him Because he challenged Arthur for his birthright and nearly killed him. Arthur is a dick.

Lancelot, for reasons I won't put in writing. Especially not on the interwebs.. 'cause it never forgets ^_^

Probably would have to be Sir Gawain. Personality-wise he's likely the closest to my own, and he's a very intriguing character to explore from a literary standpoint, since he's been described in all manner of ways. In some way, he's probably a very early example of character retconning that we see so often in comic books; Gawain's character, much like many current fictional archetypes, morphs to suit the needs of the story being told, whether that's as a main character, a supporting one or one in-between.

Alas, I don't have any artistic skills, otherwise I would most definitely draw a duel between Sir Gawain and the noble octopus king, wherein they each earn the other's begrudging respect and Gawain is rewarded a magnificent trident for his troubles...or maybe just a staff with lots of suckers on it called "The Octo-arm".

Also, I already own King Arthur, so you can take me out of the running for that one.

Sir Lancelot because i can really relate to him and honestly?
he is a badass

I was going to go with Gawain, but he's very popular. So, here's my second pick:

Sir Bors de Ganis. The only knight to survive the quest for the holy grail. And after the Lancelot/Arthur split, he goes on the Crusades and dies in battle.

I don't have either game, but Crusader Kings 2 is at the top of my wishlist :).

Sir Galahad is the best knight because he defeats Lancelot and Perceval in jousts and also beat Gawain in a tournament battle. Oh and he was the only one to succeeded in obtaining the Holy Grail.

He's a motherfucking boss.

Lancelot. He has been my role model growing up and I'm pretty sure he is your favorite knight too.

sir galahad because im gay for him

King Arthur, because it's the name of the game.

I will name Sir. Gawayne, since I liked the story about the green knight, which I happen to have by J.R.R. Tolkien.

Edit. after reading the posts I have to be frank, I thought about Mordred too, Hard life, raised in the old ways, born from the old ways.

Lancelot, becouse he is awesome and i can't say anyone else after watching Fate/Zero XD ... ( yep i'm an Anime Nerd and i'm proud of it! XD)

Perceval, because he's the classical commoner who becomes a knight purely because of his strength as a warrior and his honorability.
And also he's hilarious in the show Kaamelott :D, for those who know it.

The Black Knight is obviously the most superior knight. Not only did he have the honor of fighting Arthur in single combat, he was able to keep fighting even after he had lost limbs to the superior combatant. Too courageous to even consider defeat, this noble knight kept fighting. One must admire such stubborn tenacity, for even when he was laid short and low, he refused to give up the fight and bight Arthur's kneecaps. Such bravery must be admired and commended.

As an aside, please tell my that Monty Python's rendition counts as an Arthurian Legend? Technically, it is more modern, but legends are made all the time... Also, I am not saying this because I don't know any of the other legends, just thought this was the best to write a reason for...

Sir Mordred
reasoning, i always love the guys that make things interesting ^_^

peace and serenity gets boring, so he was the one that fixed that.
i like to roleplay, when roleplaying, thats the type of character i gravitate to

I second Brave Sir Robin.

Because he's not afraid to die, or to be killed in nasty ways. By being mashed into a pulp, having his eyes gouged out and his elbows broken, for example. Neither to have his kneecaps split and his body burned away, and his limbs all hacked and mangled.
His head smashed in, and his heart cut out, and his liver removed and his bowels unplugged, and his nostrils raped, his bottom burned off and his peni-- Well, and so on.

Also, he has some tatsy minstrels for companions, which is always good to have.

Sir Percivale, because his tale brought us the movie The Fisher King .

Sir Lancelot is my favorite because he brings flavor to the story from being King Arthur's right hand man to betrayer.

Definitely that traitorous bastard Lancelot. He's pretty much the badass of the tales.

Sir Perceval because he found the Holy Grail and is therefore the world's greatest knight.

Already have King Arthur btw.

Third vote for Brave Sir Robin because he is followed by his favourite minstrels who sing odes to his great brave deeds.

I'd rather pick the Rabbit of Caerbannog but I guess you're not asking for a killer of Knights of the Round Table.

Black Knight with no comparision

I don't really remember any in particular knights, sadly. However, I must chime in to say I'm disappointed that there haven't been any pictures of King Arthur fighting an octopus. :(

Sir Tristan, mostly because the trials he overcome to find his true love. Most of the knights of the round table are pure only in the chastity sense, and the only one who face any romantic developement are Lancelot, who the tragic hero facade is frequently forgotten. So im really tempted to choose tristan.

Batman because i can't remember the name of the one i'm thinking of.
