[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Basically when it's summoned you get to pitch a DARK monster from your deck to the grave. Summoned means any kind of summoning - meaning Flip, Normal, or Special. So, if you get this little guy with Mystic Tomato, then you can activate his effect.
Armageddon Knight's stats aren't, persay, his biggest accomplishment in life. His attack is a mediocre 1400, while his measly 1000 defense would be better off as 0. Then he'd be a target for Recurring Nightmare!
However, his effect makes him a playable card in many decks, the most notable of the aforementioned decks being TeleDAD, or Necro / BurialDAD. The reason this works is because DAD decks use the grave, and like having plenty of DARKs in the grave to generate pluses off of, so Armageddon Knight's dumping, say, a Necro Gardna, or a Mezuki is generally considered for the DAD player a +1.
Armageddon Knight is a target for Dark Eruption, ROTA, and Mystic Tomato, so these are several effective ways to get him into your hand or back into your hand from the graveyard.
Several notable targets for Armageddon Knight include:
-Necro Gardna
-Mezuki
-PSZ
-Dark Armed Dragon
-Sky Scourge Norleras
-Goblin Zombie (Mezuki target)
-Destiny Hero - Malicious
-Cross Porter
.. and many more, depending on your deck-type.
Try out Armageddon Knight! Remember, milling / pitching is more a plus than a minus. |

He said Goblin Zombie, which if you remove Mezuki in your graveyard, you can special summon Goblin Zombie.
EDIT: Didn't see the actual Mezuki. Sorry for that. |
