The range combined with the knockback make this spell viable for exceptional crowd control. It's also rapidly damaging to bosses.

Strategy[]
Overview[]
Orange Knight's element is Fire. Fire deals one hit of damage over time, but unlike poison, over half of the enemies are weak to it. Some of the enemies weak to fire include: Barbarians, the Barbarian Boss, Trolls, Bears, Royal Guards, Stove Faces, Fish Men, Snakeys, Iceskimos, Frost King, and Undead Cyclops. In addition to that, fire deals full knockback to all heavyweight enemies. (Stove Face, Royal Guards, and Coneheads). Fire Demons resist the knockback from all fire attacks. Cult Minions are immune to any elemental effect and take minuscule damage, however, this can be taken advantage of.
Orange Knight boasts one of the longest Splash Attack ranges out of any characters in the game, along with Pink Knight's "Rainbow Chain" Splash Attack. Unlike the aforementioned Pink Knight, and, to a lesser extant, the Blue Knight, Orange Knight has the least expensive Splash Attack in the game.

Trivia[]
- In the startup movie, the Orange Knight wields a Broad Spear.
- On the Xbox 360, players could dress up their Avatar as the Orange Knight by purchasing the tunic in the Avatar Store, and by unlocking the helmet by playing through the game. Due to the Xbox 360 Marketplace shutdown, it is unfortunately no longer possible to purchase the tunic, though the helmet remains obtainable for those who own the game.
