I love how Shovel Knight is so hype, and kills himself in the process of amazing combos. It's hilarious. Like, yep, you just died at 30 to upspecial, but you traded with shovel knight who was at 80. Seems fair.
5:08 Oh my God, THIS MUSIC. It's from a Newgrounds game I absolutely loved as a kid, about climbing a tower with several platforming-related laws to abide by. Shame I can't remember the name... EDIT : Found it. "Tower of Heaven" is the game I was looking for.
yes more rivals I just started playing it and it's really fun thanks for introducing this game to me I got most of my friends playing this game a good 15$ well spent
The shovel drop when on fire is a reference to shovel knight (armor of chaos earned by defeating kratos a double secret in the hall of champions also ps4 exclusive)
6:28 You can' see it, but Shovel Knight is currently giving the "Are you sure about that?/Now you #%$@ up!!" stare, and now you can't unsee it (I think)
Me before shovel knight: Yeah kirbys is my favorite character Me after shovel knight: *Walking to the bus stop while blasting the song Strike The Earth*
Me and my friend were playing Rivals and I main Shovel Knight (He mains Clairein)and he only won when HE played SK so when we were done I said "Don't even try to tell me you played the game, you were either playing against Shovel Knight or you were playing Shovel Knight"
4:25 The down air is one of the special moves that can be performed with the kratos armor in the playstation version of the game. The PC version has a battletoads armor, the 3ds has a crappy streetpass rival battle arena and, if I'm remembering correctly, the Wii U didn't get shit.
Well before Co op became on all consoles it actually was exclusively on Wii U but you had to buy the amiibo which was the first ever third party amiibo.
Oh man, that Tower of Heaven stage at the start! :D So glad to see that little game still getting a little bit of attention :EDIT: 5:18 Yessss the music!
I haven’t played Rivals yet, but as someone who has played through all of Shovel Knight Treasure Trove it’s super cool the amount of detail they put into Shovel Knight
I didn't make an instagram account to view his instagram page and say no, i did not follow him because i can't follow someone without an instagram account and yes, i did every single one
Rivals of Aether does this were the first time you touch a character overpowered but when like 4 months pass they slowly calm it down and that's what I love
"You even have to buy his moves"
"He's like DLC to the next nevel"
EA: We are very interested in this new business aproach.
except EA would make it real money instead of in game
Bro this hit way too close to home😂😂
Rip pvz
Dear god no don't give them any ideas
Now I know why Nintendo made him an assist trophy. He's just too powerful to be contained outside of his own game.
Considering how many games he's escaped to, and how many spin-off's he's getting, he's probably the most powerful indie game character of all time
Yeah basically lol
Even as an assist trophy he iss too powerfull
He literally defeat kratos
Thats why Yacht club is working on spinoffs too limit his power

Low Gun Roy, chrom, ganon, bowser, and Kirby do it.
@@retrotheweeb mii brawler
seems kragg fair
Shovel Knight feels more at home in Rivals Of Aether. Still glad he happens to be in smash.
As an assist, but still in it.
oh im sure he would've been great as a character there
@ShoryukenPunch you misspelled garbage
@ShoryukenPunch everything you said and i prefer smash as well
i have never actually played rivals of aether and i can tell it is more fun.
Colby Williams at least it’s better then being a echo fighter
Has someone ever made fanart of shovel knight with the infinity gauntlet?? Cause I wanna see that
SuperGaming Dude Shovel Knight would use it for justice
Mash Man He wouldn't use it for that, the shovelrous Shovel Knight would bring about universal peace and prosperity
He says what are you going to do with money in a fight, I guess he hasn't seen Trumps Presidency Campaign.
He'd put himself and every character that's in the new Shovel Knight Bros gamemode and put them in Ultimate

Shovel knight is everything. He's all you ever wanted.

uh, down air is the shovel drop.
the signature move of shovel knight.
When Alpharad uploads a new video I get that little tingle in my genitals basically telling me: “Yea, it’s time boi”
are you sure its natural

"I'm Zetterburn, my f-smash kills at 7" LOL
Wow thanks for the info I'll definitely use it to get rid of my friends
I didn’t expect to hear Custom Robo music on the background of this video. It’s actually a pleasant surprise.
i did all the things for the application for the shovel knight code..i even had to make an instagram account just so i could do them all
I didn't make an instagram account to view his instagram page and say no, i did not follow him
because i can't follow someone without an instagram account
and yes, i did every single one
When you actually played shovel knight I expected you to buy the golden costume
Im DIGGING this kind of video!
im not sorry
"Your my angle or my devil" words from the flamingo youtube channel
The only reasons I want this game is bc shovel knight, I’ve always loved his game and he deserves more
8:00 He's right tho. Zetter is the most braindead character in the og cast
Shovel Knight being an assist trophy in Smash Ultimate makes me think:
"It's cool he got in the game at all"
and
"He could've been a fighter
He could’ve been a god

Dear lord that Custom Robo track hit like a truck.
It's super chill, and it still hit hard.
That's childhood nostalgia for you, I guess.
Shovel Knight in Rivals is suspiciously similar to Hero in Smash Ultimate....
Dude I'm crying. The video started at the end and all I saw was Travis getting destroyed at the last fight. I legit thought that was the video
8:40 Uninstall.
There is no coming back from this.
Is anyone gonna talk about how the BGM was River TWGZ Bed for a moment?
