Is there anyone who can tell me where I can find his map?

Why when i play this character online with friends its almost guarenteed that the match crashes, or atleast causes some kind of problem that ends the match early, it only happens when this charcter is selected and at random points no definite move that makes that happens

Why is F-Smash so bad? This move seriously needs some buffs, Smash has a bunch of useless if not downright harmful moves, while Rivals's balance philosophy is there's no useless move, every move has a niche and can be used, but this move just takes the candle for the most useless move in this game of the entire base roster, it has way too much startup, simply make it faster or idk, rework it cuz it's too slow, its reward isn't even that good for its startup, everytime I see someone F-Smashing I either Parry or simply jump and punish lol, no move should be this bad, but otherwise this character is really great, my friend mains him and he's pretty annoying, not as annoying as his Shovel Knight, but still annoying, I love to fight him.

Great work.

I do hope you go on to create the remaining knights! Specter and Plague Knight especially!

Hey ! I really love the character you made thank you so much for that ! I really enjoy it !
Btw King Knight have a little glitch when he dash attack :o sometimes he dealls drill damages... like 30 percent damages in one frame :o
Thank you if you can fix it ! No joke this is one of the best character in the workshop ! Have a great day good sir o/

My absolute favorite fighter in both Rivals and Shovel Knight. Thank you for this.

Not sure what the issue is but dspecial crashes the game in my instance. Just thought I'd let people know.

Feels like a real addition to the roster alongside Shovel Knight!

Alright last comment I swear.
On balancing, his up-strong hitbox seems a bit too big on the landing, it should either be thinner or have the animation adjusted to match. Down-strong also seems a bit overtuned, it has huge range for how fast it is and it isn't lacking in kill power.

More importantly, there's a bug where if you try to use down-b in playtest mode the game crashes right as the rat is supposed to spawn.
The Ogrelord 16 Oct, 2022 @ 8:27pm 
Almost forgot to mention, it seems like his down air just makes the bomb rat's bomb disappear instead of exploding on the ground and/or being sent downwards in the air? Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if that's a bug.
The Ogrelord 15 Oct, 2022 @ 10:58pm 
An excellent translation of the character to Rivals, feels great to play and has enough mechanical depth to keep things interesting.

Only things I can really criticize are up-strong seems kinda janky and doesn't always connect the last hit if the opponent gets caught on the edge of the multi-hit, and f-air seems a tad too fast.

i'm not sure why but in playtest i got a crash trying to do dspecial
Xion Toshiro 12 Oct, 2022 @ 9:16am 
This'll be the perfect fit, for the Shovel Knight Stages, as well as a perfect fit for Shovel Knight
Crush 28 Sep, 2022 @ 9:28am 
Love the character, but the game unfortunately crashes when using DSpecial while in Playtesting mode at the character select screen
shawn frogzoid 8 Sep, 2022 @ 3:28pm 
hey! theres 2 bugs i noticed and i know ur prob done with this mod but id love if u could fix them
the bomb rat doesnt turn around when reversed anymore and a number overlay is constantly above king knight, i wish i knew what it meant but i dont think its intentional, maybe stun frames or something
shadowblaster19 10 Aug, 2022 @ 6:42pm 
Also why does the rat run backwards now? seems like a bug
shadowblaster19 10 Aug, 2022 @ 6:41pm 
What's the random number from 0-3 on him during the game?
ReadySetRewind 30 Jul, 2022 @ 4:41pm 
dear lord this is phenomenal! the sprite work and attacks make this genuinely feel like a character created by the aether team themselves, i actually had to come back to this character's workshop page to check that it wasn't uploaded by dan fornace himself!
Peku 27 Jul, 2022 @ 6:07pm 
Senior Big bones is spiting fact. we want more of this blessed character. like plague kight or specter knight
potsky 14 Jul, 2022 @ 3:45am 
I gotta say, this Character FEELS amazing to play, the moveset is well thought out, it feels great to use, the sprite work is amazing and this characters combo game is one Ive grown very found of. It would be a BLESSING to have any of the Order of No Quarter members be made by your Skilled and Wonderful hands.
TheHoseJam 7 Jul, 2022 @ 10:29am 
nice to see our decadent dandy in aether style!
Peku 1 Jul, 2022 @ 3:03am

it crash when you do down special
Little 21 Jun, 2022 @ 9:49am 
Can you make Specter Knight too?
DeadLikeMe 2 May, 2022 @ 12:31pm 
this is a damn impressive mod, feels like he belongs in the base game along side shovel knight
Bakatelas 31 Mar, 2022 @ 1:55pm 
damn he thicc
Also great work
fusionclaw22 25 Mar, 2022 @ 9:27pm 
This mod is better than the other king knight mod. I'm wondering if you guys can make a specter knight mod.
Dragussy 24 Mar, 2022 @ 11:57pm 
epik
Broly 22 Mar, 2022 @ 2:55pm 
I've noticed that having both flying rats out and then using king knight's side special to start spinning in mid air can cause some major lag
MisemonoReverie 10 Mar, 2022 @ 7:28pm 
I tried to use the down special and it crashed the game
NoobButCool 22 Feb, 2022 @ 10:14am 
we need the finals smash cuz it will be good ig
Nathus 20 Feb, 2022 @ 6:31pm 
It's so well made I'd think its official :zetterburn:
GlowDonk 19 Feb, 2022 @ 11:09am 
This is so well made, man
Mr. Slumber 16 Feb, 2022 @ 8:18pm 
Small correction regarding the last three comments: From what i can tell, Down-B only crashes in playtest mode, not in actual battles or training mode.
Could be wrong tho.

fucking amazing mod however, one of my favorites personally.
Cynn 11 Feb, 2022 @ 8:34am 
down B is crashing the game,
kr1pter 7 Feb, 2022 @ 8:01pm 
down B crashes the game :(
Trainer_Lucario 5 Feb, 2022 @ 12:56am 
down b crashes game
i love toys 24 Jan, 2022 @ 12:23pm 
Now what if you got the other 2 chads in the game? :0
i love toys 24 Jan, 2022 @ 12:22pm 
As good as the previous king knight was, I yearned for a 16-bit King Knight. Thank you
Clown Sniffer 19 Jan, 2022 @ 9:52am 
Going to do a stream on this character today, but I just want to say thank you for adding the best Shovel Knight character lol
Burner Phone (They/Them) 11 Jan, 2022 @ 5:53pm 
I noticed when I was playing as king knight in brawlhalla and saw that the move was identical lol
batit the plant  [author] 9 Jan, 2022 @ 9:04am 
finally someone got it
Burner Phone (They/Them) 9 Jan, 2022 @ 8:45am 
Is the down tilt a brawlhalla reference?
berryl 6 Jan, 2022 @ 4:48pm 
for some reason using the propeller rat on the character select test cause the game to crash, not really a pressing issue but still note worthy. love the character, pretty fun!
Wiseguy 5 Jan, 2022 @ 1:47pm 
Currently color palette #14 causes the game to crash. I'm not aware if that has happened to anyone else.

Aside from that, great character. :)
Net15 1 Jan, 2022 @ 8:35pm 
I love this character so much. Like my friend BigMac said, it feels official. The moveset is incredibly creative, fun and balanced, the artwork is astonishingly great and expressive, and everything is polished. I haven't found a single bug playing it.
I beg you to do the other Knights, what we have of them now are just low effort sprite rips, and this is what that franchise deserves.
Trobador 1 Jan, 2022 @ 11:58am 
Great work! Just wanted to report a strange bug I encountered as I was trying out the character in training mode : I hit a shouler bash on Shovel Knight and the move kept on hitting every frame, keeping us both in hitlag and getting him to 999% until it suddenly ended. I got a screenshot but it ended right after I got out of the training pause menu, so I wasn't able to get a video.

Update on the 3 Prop. rat bug: It occurs when an enemy counters King Knight. It destroys all the rats, and the next one you try to summon immediately despawns. After that, you can make 3.
