OVERVIEW
Shovel Knight is a versatile all-rounder with attacks for just about every situation. He is able to function at every range, but excels at close range where he can use his faster attacks.
Shovel Knight's attacks all have generally average framedata, range, damage and knockback. Different attacks are ideal for different ranges, with jab and down tilt being good close range options, forward tilt and forward strong excelling in the midrange, and Flare Rod and Propeller Dagger controlling the long range.
Shovel Knight also has a few highly unique moves to distinguish him from other all-rounders. Troupple Chalice is a very limited but very powerful move that gives one of three random outcomes: a heal, temporary invulnerability, or a fullscreen grab. Shovel Drop replaces Shovel Knight's fastfall, and has essentially no startup or endlag in exchange for an awful hitbox.
Shovel Knight is an all-rounder with high mobility and higher-than-average range.PROS / CONS
- Average: Shovel Knight's attacks and stats are average. While they aren't exceptional, they aren't bad.
- Recovery: Shovel Knight has an excellent recovery that can get back from almost anywhere.
- Average: Shovel Knight's attacks and stats are average. While they aren't bad, they aren't exceptional.
- Low Disjoint: Despite using a shovel for long ranged attacks, very few of Shovel Knight's moves are too disjointed and therefore extend his hurtbox out pretty far.
- No Fastfall: Shovel Knightis incapable of fastfalling, instead doing a Shovel Drop. While down air can function somewhat similarly, not having an actionable fastfall is still an issue.
Unique Mechanic: Shovel Drop

Three-hit shovel poke flurry that does good damage. Essentially acts similar to other character's three-hit jabs but can't be cancelled on whiff. The movement combined with very slight smaller hurtbox on startup also gives the move some light evasive properties.

- Forward velocity on 6~15F.
- Can only be used once per airtime, fails otherwise.
- Bounces upwards on hit, and skips any remaining active frames.
- Pressing shield/dodge cancels into Vault.
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.

[Vault] -------------------------------------------------------
- Forward velocity on 1~26F.
- High profile for entire duration.
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.
Vault is also very useful for recovery by using it at the very end of Propeller Dagger, letting Shovel Knight gain significantly more horizontal distance.

LAPADDITION
- The previous version of Shovel Knight, while not bad, was just a bit awkward and weird. Shovel Drop felt wrong. Many attacks had super high startup but incredibly low endlag (for example: 20F startup on fstrong and 2F recovery). Jab, ftilt, nair, and fair were all the same move. Up air in general. Many moves looked weird due to my lack of skill at the time. And most of all, he just felt weird and therefore not particularly fun to use. Now his duplicate attacks (besides jab and nair) have been replaced, and so have many other moves. I know seeing "NEW MOVE" on essentially everything would seem incredibly major, but most of them do still hold a somewhat similar role to the old version.
