Zirkumflex zetterburn shine and forstburn combustion also has the same properties, it all depends where is the character positioning since is a all around hitbox
He's a earth/rock themed character who prefers fighting/falling in the sky. A piece of rock falling in the sky is a meteor which is why he has an insane amount of "spikes" or "meteor" attacks.
"This is the most expensive one, and is completely useless" "It only exists to style on other players" So you're saying it's the best armor in the game?
For breakfast I had a delicious pancake spread alongside eggs, sausage, hashbrowns, and corned beef hash. I made everything separate and had a special whipped butter spread I used. Didn't take long. Used Grade A cage free eggs. Only the best potatoes. A hint of vanilla in the pancake batter, cooked to a perfect golden brown. Exquisite smell. Also had some fresh squeezed orange juice with it. Like everything in Shovel Knight's kit, It too, also spikes.
Waffletigercat So is Steve from Minecraft. Microsoft and Nintendo have been on friendly terms in recent years, and Phil Spencer mentioned they have done negotiations in the past before. It's safe to assume that the same case may happen with RoA, though Dan may have the whole answer.
Minecraft is definitely an oddball exception though, created specifically out of the fact that it used to be third-party and then got sold to Microsoft. And part of the terms of that sale were that Microsoft continue to support Minecraft as multiplatform.
shovel knight and shantae have both appeared as guest characters in several games. in blaster master they were both dlc characters. Shovel knight is already in 2 fighting games while shantae hasn't been in one yet. i think the only reason shovel knight isn't playable in smash is because sakurai chose shantae instead because of her history with Nintendo. i think she will be revealed soon. Still, it would've been awesome to see him playable in smash as he's sort of an indie icon.
He has no proof but he explained the evidence for his speculation. Shovel Knight is a bit overserved in the guest character arena and Shantae is underserved. Based on that he's made the assumption that Shovel Knight getting guest status in Ultimate suggest Shantae might be getting the character slot instead. It's just speculation but there's some reason behind it.
It may not be Smash (as a playable character anyway), but it's super cool to see Shovel Knight in a platform fighter. His existing abilities and attacks cater super well for a fighting game like this one.
reNINTENDO If he was more popular in Japan, he would have had a pretty great shot at being a full character. And we can kinda see that in his assist trophy moves
The creativity of the Rivals team never ceases to amaze me. Being able to open a shop screen in the middle of a match? Being able to fish 🎣 🐠 in the middle of a match? Insane. Perfect pick for the last third party character. So nice. 👌
So is it the last 3rd party, or the last character in the game? Because personally I think Rivals should keep going until they have a roster of 20 characters at least. The roster is a bit abysmal, and reminds me of Skullgirls meagar roster, despite how unique those characters are.
@@Manganization I think is the last character... I hope after the deluxe version, dan and company, work in a sequel. Rivals of Aether 2 would be awesome.
No wonder they took so long with this one. He's about as overloaded as Elliana, but in a good way i believe. He's also just incredibly creative and respectful to the game he's from. I swear that if nintendo had made him playable, they would have never taken it this far. Huge kudos to Dan for the awesome game and love letter to fans of a character that didn't make it to smash as a character, but deserves every other form of respect here.
The gear seems good as set-up. The one problem I see is the cost. You can buy most good stuff only at the last stock, if even then if my math is correct.
okay so when this comes out im going to get about $15 of DLC because imma get the characters ive missed. theres the snek, the frog, that one dinosaur (i think) and some others so yaknow.
"This hitbox also spikes" the character
Why does the horn spike? That's just too much.
Zirkumflex zetterburn shine and forstburn combustion also has the same properties, it all depends where is the character positioning since is a all around hitbox
Me “ I’m just gonna go to the comments and say the hit box also spikes”.... I come down and see failboat already having said it.😭
He's a earth/rock themed character who prefers fighting/falling in the sky.
A piece of rock falling in the sky is a meteor which is why he has an insane amount of "spikes" or "meteor" attacks.
Failboat what are you doing here?
Also Up B and Airhorn Spike...
One man's assist trophy Is another man's character.
CJayZ One man’s assist trophy is another man’s character
@@Ocilley thanks for that, just noticed my slip up.
Well said
Considering people's recent gripes with Assist Trophies, that makes plenty of sense if you know what the original saying is.
CJayZ if Shovel Knight was more popular in Japan, he probably would have become a character
THEY KEPT HIS CROUCH ! That's so perfect I have no words
At first, I thought he has no couch O_O, but when you look at the sprite closely, HE DOES.
Minty Saga it lowers him by a single fucking pixel
th-cam.com/video/1W7c8QghPxk/w-d-xo.html
He must have too much armor to crouch
At first i thought he said crotch lol.
"This is the most expensive one, and is completely useless"
"It only exists to style on other players"
So you're saying it's the best armor in the game?
Especially when you use the runes
@@diontebryant9262 what’s the runes?
@@raheemaslam7363 they're little things that you can buy in abyss mode to augment the roster
I use it
Watch people do some micro spacing with that crouch
I'd die laughing
just like the game
I love that they made Shovel Knight so true to his original game, but he's also like Business-Casual Man from Slap City.
God I love Rivals.
isn't slap city another one of the lazy platform fighters that have been appearing on steam recently
Maybe? Except the main thing with Slap City is that it's actually fun.
sinn lazy?
Slap city ain’t lazy, the devs actually put some good mechanics in and it feels buttery smooth to play
sinn Its actually pretty well made
Shovel Knight better be able to "taunt" by spamming crouch like he can in his game.
Yes.
*T-bag
You forgot to mention that his parry brings out shield knight! Even if that has no actual gameplay purpose its still amazing!
Thomas Shimosaka Yo, I need to see this! That’s awesome!
"Big Dig"
BIG DIG ENERGY
Big dick
Bick dig
Big dig daddy
Clears throat
They really kept so much of his original game in his moveset, it’s actually amazing.
He looks fun as hell
Shovel "This Spikes as Well" Ross
This Comment can also so spike.
and also this reply
My spike is the spike that will spike this comment thread! :O
This made my day
Spike-ception.
I bet his crouch spike as well
THEY GOT THE CROUCH RIGHT!
THIS IS ALL I WANTED.
everyone was saying shovelcide in chat when when dstrong was revealed but apparently he can jump out of it
ain't that some shit
so to summarize Shovel Knight in one sentence, "This hitbox can also spike".
For breakfast I had a delicious pancake spread alongside eggs, sausage, hashbrowns, and corned beef hash. I made everything separate and had a special whipped butter spread I used. Didn't take long. Used Grade A cage free eggs. Only the best potatoes. A hint of vanilla in the pancake batter, cooked to a perfect golden brown. Exquisite smell. Also had some fresh squeezed orange juice with it.

Yoo they went wild with the character mechanics!
But we can go EVEN THROUGH BEYOND
Between Rivals of Aether, Slap City, and Ultimate, the platform fighter genre is showing some dominance this year. Hell yeah!
Samuel vi Britannia Does Slap City count? It always seemed like a joke game to play for laughs. Is it actually really good and I'm missing out?
AUTG Slap City is actually super well designed. Despite the funny visuals, it's mechanically as solid as Melee, if not a little better.
Hey look! Alpharad predicted that the prices would go WAY down. Just so you know, the ornate plate used to be 9999 gold.
Let’s hope rivals of aether is on the Nintendo switch soon...
At least Steam lets me use the Switch Pro Controller now. Having it on the go would be so dope tho
I think Dan said he's aiming to get it out between December-February
How?Aren't Ori & Sein owned by Microsoft?
Waffletigercat So is Steve from Minecraft. Microsoft and Nintendo have been on friendly terms in recent years, and Phil Spencer mentioned they have done negotiations in the past before. It's safe to assume that the same case may happen with RoA, though Dan may have the whole answer.

So smash deconfirmed shovel knight but then rivals of aether one ups them.
Sakurai Please, I need this!
Midnight Prince true

I really hope shantae is not in smash lol. Hopefully as an assist trophy tho
Smash Class and they made him good-as-fuck as well.
You forgot to mention that the war horn can spike if you hit with the bottom
DannyTheGameboy Yup, cause we needed to talk about MORE SPIKE HITBOXES
lmao
"It only exsists to style on other players"
And just like that, Rivals is in my cart, ready to purchase.
It may not be Smash (as a playable character anyway), but it's super cool to see Shovel Knight in a platform fighter. His existing abilities and attacks cater super well for a fighting game like this one.
reNINTENDO If he was more popular in Japan, he would have had a pretty great shot at being a full character. And we can kinda see that in his assist trophy moves
he's not really a intend character and doesn't have an exclusive game
6:33 Draw me like one of your French girls
"The move can also spike"- the character

"And this is Shovel Knight's crouch."
Barely bends his knees.
I love the amiibo inspiration! SIDE SPECIAL IS THE FREAKING INFINIDAGGER TOO
I actually gasped when I saw the crouch good lord.
You missed that there is a second hit box on up b when coming down. This combos from the first up b hit.
You forgot to mention that the chest is a hit box and you can use it when you in the respawn platform
I love how there's Amiibo stuff in his moveset.
Shovel Knight in a nutshell:
"Brother, dost thou even spike?"
You forgot to mention the horn also can spike if you are right above the opponent.
"He has trouble getting out of combos"
Mate, Shovel Knight has every combo in the game.
he even pulls out the phase locket when he airdodges. holy shit
shovel knigh looks so unique its insane
More rivals content please!
You know they got the character right when their crouch lowers them a single pixel. Well done, Dan, you beautiful bastard.
Ok, this looks fucking AMAZING !!
Down Tilt can also move Up Strong’s block
holy shit he's literally exactly pulled from his game this is sick
fsmash has a tipper btw. and war horn spikes, its just bigger shine.
The crouch is such a good reference
Chester should have been Shovel Knight’s Down Special because his old one is used for camping.
these animations are SMOOTH
Holy crap he’s Accurate as hell. When I get the game I know who I’m maining.
Now that all the characters are in the game, can you PLEASE make an official Rivals of Aether tier list?
I’ve never watched these vids before so hearing strong attacks was hilarious
You need to these videos for every rival some of the og rivals are really hard to get your head around
shovel knight:everything spikes
You forgot that the dirt block also spikes, as if that wasn't enough
that does? he has so many ledge-guarding options, then
Yep, it's basically a villager's bowling ball that goes up first
Woo! Alphadad is featured at the end!
The gear seems good as set-up. The one problem I see is the cost. You can buy most good stuff only at the last stock, if even then if my math is correct.
Suprised they didn't say the downward hit ox on his up special spikes
Holy gee whiz! They really did a good job with him!
His up air gives me bayonetta upB nightmares
First he makes it into Smash and now he's playable in another Smash-esque fighting game? This shovelrous knight is going places.
Shovel Knight is one of the most interesting characters in rivals of aether the shop the down special letting you get some goodies very interesting
Hopefully the taunt button works on gc controllers by then.
If he ever did get into smash, this would probably be his moveset
okay so when this comes out im going to get about $15 of DLC because imma get the characters ive missed. theres the snek, the frog, that one dinosaur (i think) and some others so yaknow.
HOW DO YOU GET HIM
Now I want Gunvolt in Rivals of Aether too.
Jesus Christ this character looks nuts!
Sooooooo, is there anything that DOESN’T spike?
The horn spikes, the shovel spikes, the dig spikes?
The fishing hook spikes!!!
Are there any other spikes I should know about?!?
It is sad that the roster is ending but who better to wrap it up than the legend of indie himself. ..
He may not be in Smash, but he sure is in a lot of independent platform fighters.
I'm so excited for this game
Shovel Knight has big dig energy
I would love if they would add more items, like green armor that makes you gain double the money and make your down air stronger
Why make up ghost gloves if the flare wand functions the same?
And why is the propeller dagger not his up special?
Still excited though
Him existing spikes.
His crouch is just him standing Still 😆
Man, this makes me want Shovel Knight in Smash more, but I’m glad he’s at least in Smash as an assist trophy
Shovel knight has at least 7 spikes. What the hell Dan.
This charger looks incredible!! I can't believe how faithful to the game it is and I so wish he was playable in Smash Ultimate
Rip beefy aether doods
Shovel Knight doing damage!
so what's the deal with the little warp he was doing in a couple of scenes?
THIS GUY IS IN EVERYTHING
3:22 INFINIDAGGER WOOOOOOOOO
Shovel knights crouch hit box is so small its kirbys and jigglypuffs in smash
this could have been you Sakurai. This could have been it...
I will say I don't think the buying with treasure on the fly fits though...
He may be tough, but nothing beats the power of
bOmB sPaM
not fair they got shovel knight. and we got him as a assist trophy
If Ornate Armor isn’t the first thing you buy from Chester during a match, you’re not a true knight.
Fun fact: walking with shovel knight can also spike
Yall remember beefy aether doods?
I’m curious Vish, why isn’t this on your rivals of aether channel?
Anthony Besaw Channel is ded and has been like that for a good while
I really wanted CommanderVideo from the BIT.TRIP games in RoA.
Great overview!
Forgot to say warhorn spikes
