This card, Knights of the Black Rose, would benefit a control or midrange deck that focuses on gaining and maintaining the monarch status to generate incremental advantage over time. While it can be a solid choice in certain strategies, there are potentially better options available such as Palace Jailer, which not only grants the monarch but also provides removal. Whether Knights of the Black Rose should see play depends on the specific deck and its game plan, but it can certainly be a valuable inclusion in the right context.

Rules

08/23/16

Being the monarch carries two inherent triggered abilities. “At the beginning of the monarch’s end step, that player draws a card” and “Whenever a creature deals combat damage to the monarch, its controller becomes the monarch.”

08/23/16

If the triggered ability that causes the monarch to draw a card goes on the stack, and a different player becomes the monarch before that ability resolves, the first player will still draw the card.

08/23/16

The last ability of Knights of the Black Rose will trigger even if the most recent monarch was another player, as long as you were monarch as the turn began.
