    3:02:17 The True Ending rant is so extremely relatable because even in the footage you used from me I lose the big red bomb and only happen to salvage the run out of sheer luck lol.
    Great video, by the way :)

    Love how everyone headcanons Plague Knight's victory in Plague of Shadows against Shovel Knight never really happened and was actually him making up a story latter. "Um, actually, I defeated him first and he got me when I was distracted!"

    I'm honestly shocked you don't have more subs! Shovel Knight was like the first real indie game I played, and it opened up a whole new love for these older style platformers and the like. Gungeon and Isaac hold my heart in their bony fingers, but the hours of Shovel Knight made it all happen. I really hope the algorithm picks you up soon, and I can't wait for more!

    I don’t know why people say mega man is shovel knights primary inspiration when it’s obviously castlevania with mega man second, followed loosely by all other classic 2d platformers

    In King of Cards, bubblefrog trivializes the final boss. You don't have to worry about falling. Just charge, bubble, charge, bubble.

  • @thesardonicrenegade3065

    I've commented this on another video, but Black Knight's second theme "The Defender" is perfection in a musical and storytelling point.
    In Shovel Knight's campaign, Black Knight has been backed into a corner, his last chance to protect Shield Knight by having to reluctantly accept the Enchantress' power, this song is his theme, his determination to protect Shield Knight, but it's Shovel Knight's theme too, his own determination to beat Black Knight and the Enchantress, to save Shield Knight, the epic and triumphant reprise of "Plains of Passage" is proof of that.
    In Specter Knight's campaign, Black Knight's motivation is the same, protecting Shield Knight, but now he's facing off against an absolutely furious and vengeful Specter Knight, full of rage at the revelation that the Enchantress is Shield Knight, the one who made him who he is now, who he had to swear undying servitude to, and he absolutely blitzes right through Black Knight to get to her.
    But my favorite version of this has to be in Plague Knight's campaign, at this point in Plague Knight's story, he believes that Mona has left him because of whatever lies Black Knight said to her. So now he's even more determined than ever to finish his potion, wholeheartedly believing that if he finishes it, it will make Mona love him again. Not caring what happens as a result of making it, as long as Mona returns to him, but he doesn't realize that she has loved him this whole time. So he smashes through the Tower of Fate entrance, just to find Black Knight, the cause of his misery, waiting for him. Where he then learns that Mona was trying to protect him this whole time. Blinded by his emotions from this revelation, Plague Knight attacks Black Knight relentlessly, he NEEDS to finish this potion now, no matter the cost, and no one will stand in his way.
    It isn't Black Knight's theme anymore, it's Plague Knight's.

    Why do you not have more subs and likes again??? This video is being amazing till now (and I'm sure it'll deliver till the end), and I agree when you say that Showdown is lackluster. Imo they did what they wanted with the first 4 games and Showdown was just to appeal to those who wanted it. They'll probably do a sequel somewhere in the future, but until them, we can live with the fan made ones in Rivals of Aether.

      2:03:40 like scrooge mcduck. Shovel knight is like scrooge. Becasue Scrooge jumping first changes the rotation of the earth. Logic tells that this means that scrooge is more powerful, mostly because taking the fact that Scrooge canonically f*cked very close to the beginning of the 20th century, and as shovel knight came out in 2017, that mwann that 17-20= 67 which is also when scrooge was born, which means that it all leads back to him, which means that shovel knight his powerscaling is not consequantial, because shovels are stuck between temporal time travel, as proven by the law of david tennant. You said it yourself. Scrooge takes this dub.
