According to every youtube channel with a templar-inspired name such as 'uwotm888' or similar, it's the Knight.

Knights because Samurai are Asian and therefore cannot see.

Well fact is, NA players are mostly casual normies not knowing mechanics & who would have no chance against competitive EU players on the same ping.

Knights ofc. Well depends acutally on the situation:

A single battle with equal numbers? Knights win.

A war, nation vs. nation? Knights win.

Cuz meat beats rice every day, all day long.

This experiment was done on CRPG :shock: :
Ras_Frenzyyy vs Varadin  :D

I think a samurai see a knight in heavy armor and spear was like for a modern soldier see Star Wars!

IMHO...
(click to show/hide)

The results are based on these criteria:
-My in depth experience with simulated fictional battles between Bushido-styled cultures vs. Chivalry-styled cultures
-Average Samurai physique and equipment for 19th century, Guns excluded!
-Average European Knight physique and equipment from 11th-13th century(very limited access to plate armors or late melee weaponry and severely limited access to steel equipment in general)(Knight disadvantage)
-Both are dismounted(Could be construed as a disadvantage for Samurai)
-No ranged weaponry(Clear Samurai disadvantage)
-Similar experience(Could be construed as a disadvantage for Knight)
-Similar reach "Category" of weaponry(aka. Knights outreach Samurai's by roughly 10-15%, or 1 foot(30cm) at max polearm length: (9ft.)270cm Bill-hook vs. 240cm Naginata)
-"Basic" knowledge of the other person's(culture's) fighting style
-Scenario: Capture and Defend Circle 3m radius(WTF! unrealistically fair, teen e-peen contest scenario!
-Well mannered 5 minute breaks every 30 minutes, warfare is for gentlemen you know.Huh!? Not a real battle?

Categories used for "results"
Win: is statistically almost certain victory(90%+)
Favorable: 66-90% win chance
Equal:35-65% win chance

  • With "short" time limit(at most a 30 minutes):

       Strength Knight vs. :
      
          Agi Samurai: Favorable for Knight due to stamina/exertion not playing a huge role
          Strength Samurai: Knight wins due to superior armor and weapon quality for brute force usage
      
       Agi Knight vs. :
          Agi Samurai: Favorable for Knight due to stamina/exertion not playing a huge role
          Strength Samurai: Knight wins due to superior armor and weapon quality for brute force usage

  • With "Average" time limit(30-120 minutes):
       Strength Knight vs. :
          Agi Samurai: Favorable for Knight due to stamina/exertion not playing a huge role
          Strength Samurai: Knight wins due to superior armor and weapon quality for brute force usage
      
       Agi Knight vs. :
          Agi Samurai: Favorable for Knight due to stamina/exertion not playing a huge role
          Strength Samurai: Knight wins due to superior armor and weapon quality for brute force usage

  • With "Long" time limit(2 hours+):
      Strength Knight vs. :
          Agi Samurai: Favorable for Knight due to stamina/exertion not playing a huge role
          Strength Samurai: Knight wins due to superior armor and weapon quality for brute force usage

       Agi Knight vs. :
          Agi Samurai: Favorable for Knight due to stamina/exertion not playing a huge role
          Strength Samurai: Knight wins due to superior armor and weapon quality for brute force usage

Results:
Knight wins: 3
Knight favorable: 5
Equal: 1
Samurai favorable: 2
Samurai wins: 1

Knight wins clearly.
Summary:
Knights are superior because: Heavier armor, longer weapon reach, these are just a natural result of a larger physique and more widespread access to Iron.

You know that a warhorse can trample at least 9 FULL BOTTLES OF WATER before even noticing that it got samurai gore on its hooves right?
