“CyberMask’s voice booms through every MIND and screen as the latest part of the message is decrypted. He reveals Glaive, the reborn Titan. This Vanguard-class OverKnight embodies raw, formidable power, breaking opponents with devastating strikes that grow stronger with every blow. Its unyielding resilience allows Pilots to embrace pure aggression, their defenses never faltering. The transmission ends, leaving many to wonder about the other two silhouettes.“
Series: Genesis
Archetype: Vanguard
The Titan model gives your OverKnight access to powerful Strikes that destroy your opponent’s defenses through sheer force and become stronger the more damage they do. In addition, it provides passives that make you more resilient, allowing you to focus on a more aggressive play style without sacrificing defense.
Add in passives that keep you standing when others fall, and you’ve got a build that lets you go all-in on aggression without ever backing down.
More pressure. More damage. More wins.
Glaive doesn’t play safe — Glaive plays to dominate.
Part Breakdown
Head – Power Edge (Passive)
If blocking with Strikes would reduce their capacity to 0, set it to 1 instead.
- Uses per round: 1
“Power Edge gives Glaive a defensive edge against other models. This ability lets you make the most of both the defensive and offensive power of your Strike cards.“
Denisse Lara – Game Design Lead
Arms – Blade Boost (Active)
- Burst Boost next Strike.
- Energy cost: 0
“Blade Boost is a versatile tool for Glaive that enhances and empowers its other abilities. Combine it with Empowered Strike to secure the damage buff, or with Critical Strike to trigger Shredding. Additionally, pair it with any Strike to activate the Overclock condition.“
Denisse Lara – Game Design Lead
Chest – Critical Strike (Active)
- Shredding Strike 7. When you Strike with 8+, Overclock.
- Overclock cost: 3
“Critical Strike is another offensive ability that can be devastating to the opponent if not properly defended. Its effect has the potential to disrupt the opponent’s strategy by forcing them to block with cards or risk losing them when taking damage.“
Denisse Lara – Game Design Lead
Legs – Empowered Strike (Active)
- Empowered Strike 6.
- Energy cost: 3
“Empowered Strike gives Glaive a Strike that is always available and scales as the match progresses. While it’s relatively weak early on, using it at the right moment can turn it into a formidable weapon.“
Denisse Lara – Game Design Lead
Back – Enhanced Core (Passive)
- Your maximum Core is 35. When you hit, Repair 1.
- Uses per round: 2
“Enhanced Core gives Glaive greater endurance, allowing it to focus more on aggression by increasing its health and restoring it with each hit.“

Model Insights
“Glaive was designed to create a straightforward strategy with a solid balance between offense and defense. By focusing its parts on direct attacks and abilities that provide durability, Glaive is easy to play and a great choice for beginners or for players who enjoy an aggressive playstyle with short-term payoff.”
Denisse Lara – Game Design Lead
Glaive isn’t just a build — he’s a statement. Whether you’re tearing through opponents with Critical Strike, surviving with Power Edge, or closing the gap with Blade Boost, Glaive delivers a playstyle that feels bold, heavy, and unapologetically dominant.
He’s perfect for players who want immediate impact — and even better for those who crave mastery through timing and pressure.
COMBO 1 – PARRYING STRIKE + POWER EDGE
This combination is a sure-fire way of getting all the benefits from Glaive’s blocking power. Using Parry (Adds a +3 bonus to the card’s capacity when blocking.) alongside a simple Strike makes it so you can get a powerful Block, and with Power Edge’s help, that Strike will remain in your hand!
COMBO 2 – ADRENALINE STRIKE + CRITICAL STRIKE
If you want to amplify Critical Strike’s effect, Adrenaline (If you damage with this Strike, next Strike has +2.) will come in handy. Use a Strike with this component, and in your next turn, activate your Chest. Your Shredding Strike will have even more power! You can even use it with Blade Boost to make it more devastating.
Final Thoughts
Glaive is just the beginning.
This launch marks the first of many OverKnight models we’ve been carefully crafting behind the scenes for months — each one built with its own unique playstyle, abilities, and identity. Glaive opens the gate to a new era of gameplay depth, customization, and strategic chaos.
We’ve only scratched the surface of what the Overknights arsenal can become. New models. New metas. New ways to express your skill and flex your style.
So if Glaive feels powerful…
Just wait. The full roster is coming — and it’s going to change everything.
