Shovel Knight

Shovel Knight from Shovel Knight joins the battle!
...

Shovel Knight is an all-rounder with high mobility and higher-than-average range.

An attack that replaces Shovel Knight's fastfall. Due to its incredible speed and lack of recovery, it can be used to go both into and out of combos. On it's own however, it doesn't really lead to much due to the low damage and bounce upwards.

A very weak projectile for harassing opponents at a far range. It can slowly tack on some extra damage, but don't expect it to do a lot. Mainly just to force an opponent to approach.

A fast rushing attack that is somewhat weak but covers a very large amount of space. It doesn't do a lot on its own, but the threat of it can make opponents afraid to whiff attacks. It leaves Shovel Knight in a prime position to follow up and continue pressure on hit, and isn't that bad on block. Pressing shield / dodge cancels into Vault.

An invincible flip forward that can be done at any time during Propeller Dagger. It also has incredible high profile, letting Shovel Knight fly over most projectiles and mid-hitting attacks. This makes Propeller Dagger significantly safer, as any attempt at stopping it such as projectiles can simply be vaulted through. If used early enough, it can be used without Propeller Dagger even starting, giving Shovel Knight an long distance invincible movement option.

A great recovery tool that doesn't put Shovel Knight into freefall. It also has some use in combos, as at certain percents Shovel Drop can be comboed into.

A highly limited but highly powerful move. It can greatly change the state of the match, and possibly enable comebacks. It can only be used twice per stock, but one use can be replenished by landing Troupple King. One of three Ichors is chosen on use. Ichor of Renewal heals 30% of Shovel Knight's health. Ichor of Boldness activates full invulnerability for 7.5 seconds. Ichor of Fortune is a fullscreen command grab that leads into combos.

Invincible ultra that has pretty high kill power and restores one use of Troupple Chalice on hit, but has very poor range and high endlag on whiff.
