Ed: Today combatants aren't just characters made out of 2D. But heroes who had gone far beyond to defeat their enemies, never stopping to rest, even when they have a lot to carry out.
Demo: Shovel Knight, the Knight who examples the Code of Shovelry!
Ruby: And Cuphead, the Walking Cup that defeated The Devil! I'm Ruby Rose, and those are Ed and Demo!
Ed: And is our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out, who would win a Death Battle.
Shovel Knight
Ed: Long ago, when the world was wild, adventures roam this planet, from wizards to reapers. Between all these adventure seekers, two of them exceeded in every category, the dynamic duo of Shield Knight and Shovel Knight.
-Background
-Name: Unknown
-Height: 4'6"
-Weight: 100(without Armor)/150 pounds(with Armor)
-Travels via Catapults
-Deserves to be a playable character in Super Smash Brothers! Not an Assist Trophy!
Demo: You practically know the fucking story; Shield and Shovel went to explore and try to conquer the Tower of Fate when it unlocked itself and in the middle of a fight, Shovel was knockout by a curse spell. When he woke up, his partner had vanished into thin air, which made him believe she was dead. So like any person who gave a shit about life when they lost everything, he stopped adventuring and try to shut himself from the world.
Ruby: That is until an evil woman called The Enchantress took over the land, along with a group of evil Knights known as the Order of No Quarter. When Shovel Knight heard of this, he discovered that the Tower of Fate was unsealed and it would be his only chance to find out what really happened to Shield Knight.
Ed: With armor intact, weapons ready, and a wealth for adventure, our chivalry hero journey to the mysterious tower without hesitation once again.
-Weapons, -Armor, and +Skills
-Shovel Blade
-Flare Wand
-Phase Locket
-Dusk Knuckles
-Throwing Anchor
-Mobile Gear
-War Horn
-Propeller Dagger
-Chaos Sphere
-Fishing Rod
-Troupple Chalices (Boldness and Renewal)
-Dynamo Mail
+Shovel Drop
+Charge Handle
+Drop Spark
+Infinite underwater breathing
Demo: His main weapon of choice is none other than the Shovel Blade, basically the birth of a sword and a shovel. This baby is used to dig treasure down on the earth, slash and cut opponents, and even used it as a pogo stick with his trademark attack, the Shovel Drop! And we have witnessed this move before….twice! But swinging around this blade isn't just what it can do, it also has a Charge attack, and even a long-range attack called Drop Spark!
Ruby: But the Shovel Blade is not his only arsenal. With the help of magic, Shovel Knight has tons of weapons to use! The Flare Wand, a wand that summons and shoots a flame projectile. The Phase Locket, which makes him immune to any damage for 4 seconds. The Dust Knuckles help him mash compact dirt with no problem, and the Throwing Anchor, which is exactly as it said!
Ed: The Mobile Gear is a platform that allows him to move between deadly obstacles. The Propeller Dagger helps him fly through the air, the Chaos Sphere is a ball which bounces and destroys anyone that touches it, and the War Horn is a devastating horn whistle that destroys anyone on his radius. Oh, and his Fishing Rod, not only for fishing, but also to catch certain objects, and send them back to whoever throws it.
Demo: And of course, there also the Troupple Chalices, drinks that contain substances call Ichors which helps in many ways. For this match, Shovel will use the most he used in battle, which are the Ichor of Boldness, which makes him invincible for 10 seconds, and Ichor of Renewal, the one who restores his health and magic completely. And finally, a knight is nothing without their sweet, sweet armor.
Ed: Shovel Knight has many armors, six to be precise. But like in the original Death Battle, and apparently other fiction stories, we'll give him the armor he uses more frequently the Dynamo Mail. This special armor allows Shovel a shoveling attack after he had bounced from two objects consecutive.
Ruby: With all this, you would think Shovel Knight has trouble moving around, but this knight has never once felt tired, even after defeating dragons!
-Feats
-Defeated the Order of No Quarter...Twice
-Killed Griffins and Dragons
-Dropping force of 6,700 joules of Kinetic energy
-Defeated the Battletoads and Kratos
-Dodge Cannonballs and Magic Fireballs
-Can hold his breath indefinitely
-Takes no damages after catapultthrow
Ed: As has been stated before, Shovel Knight is 4'6 inches tall and weighs 100 pounds. The armor of that era is 50 pounds, plus 5 with his shovel, the dropping of his shovel from the air, his strike force must be at least 6,700 joules.
Demo: Holy Shit! His striking force is four times stronger than Mike Tyson's punches, and he has K.O 44 contenders with the force of 1,600 joules! But what can you expect from the guy who Ultimately defeat the Order of No Quarter twice, Griffins, Dragons, and has taken on the Battletoads and the God of War himself?
Ruby: Not forgetting his incredible speed of dodging cannonballs and fireballs, or breath underwater for a long time, or his durability to survive a landing after being sent through the air by a catapult?! How I which to feel that…"
Ed: You did, in the Entrance Examen, Season 1 Episode 4. Seriously, sometimes your naivety can be your greatest weakness... speaking of which!
-Weakness
-Not Bright
-Limited Magic use
-Money obsessed
Ed: While Shovel is a might of force, he also lacks what those powerful warriors don't have, smartness. I mean, look what happened after he thought Shield Knight was death. Not forgetting that his arsenal, while useful, requires an amount of magic. If he's not careful, he will end up in a pickle.
Demo: Still, Shovel Knight is one warrior that would do two things; dirty his hands for sweet treasure and won't hesitate to put his enemies six feet under!
*Shovel Knight and Shield Knight work together to give the final blow to the Enchantress.*
Cuphead
Ed: Inkwell Isles, composed of three islands, this place-
Demo: Is the home of those Disney rejects! There's no other way to explain the existence of this place! Especially to a boy with a glass cup for a head named Cuphead.
-Background
-Name: Cuphead
-Height: Unknown
-Weight: Unknown
-Has inconsistent coloring
-So popular, Mickey Mouse is actually jealous
Ruby: One day, Cuphead and his brother, Mugman, were on the woods walking around when they came across a casino. Feeling lucky, they both went inside and they found out they were really good at betting. But then, the Devil showed up.
Demo: Satan himself is the casino's owner?! No wonder I always lose my money every time I go there! Is there's one thing I shouldn't forget, is to never make a deal with the Devil! Something Cuphead forgot when he bet his and Mugman soul for the entire Casino!
Ed: Now on the hands of the deity, they beg for him to not take their soul. And surprisingly, the Devil agreed, in exchange that they must collect soul-contracts from his previous victims that had gone into hiding. With the time limit being a day, Cuphead, alongside his brother, went to fetch this contracts.
Ruby: Just that? It doesn't look that hard-I jinx myself, didn't I?
Demo: Yep! Turns out, all of them have supernatural powers, way too much for a simple cup. Luckily, Cuphead's father/grandfather/Guardian?... had the perfect mix-up for his problem, one that grants him the power to shoot lasers from his fingers!
-Arsenal, -Armor, and +Skills
-Peashooter (EX Mega Blast)
-Spread (EX Eight Way)
-Chaser (EX Chaos Orbit)
-Lobber (EX Kablooey)
-Charger (EX Radial Barrage)
-Roundabout (EX Jumbo Roundabout)
-Airplane Weapons (Gatling Gun, Bombs, Missiles)
-Smoke Bomb Charm
-Coffee Charm
-Whetstone Charm
+Parry Slap
+Energy Beam
+Invincibility
+Giant Ghost
+Super Bomb Morph (Airplane only)
Ed: Correct. And over the course of his journey, he has collected several other powers, his most used one is the Peashooter, a rapid-fire, single shot with average damage lasers. By the way, all of his weapons give him a special attack call EX-forms which, while powerful, requires time to charge over the course of the battle. In this case, Peashooter grants him a powerful Hadouken-like blast that does incredible damage called Mega Blast.
Ruby: There is also Spread, which is a short-range projectile with a lot of damage. For this one, he needs to be at point-blank for more damaged. Its EX-form is called Eight Way, which allows Cuphead to shoot 8 projectiles in all directions. The Chaser is a tracking projectile, while they lack power, they make it up with homing its target. Its EX-form is the Chaos Orbit, where four large orbs surround him and protect him from incoming enemies.
Demo: The Lobber is an arching weapon with limited range but decent damage, and it can bounce around normally, no need for a perfect aim. Its EX-form is called Kablooey, and surprisingly, is a better version of the Lobber, only with more damage. The Charger is, without a doubt, his strongest yet, made of pure power only, which also means that it needs times for it to work. Its EX-form, Radical Barrage, is a giant explosion coming out of his hands! Seriously! If this isn't a rip-off from Bakugo's Explosion Quirk, I'm done!
Ed: And finally, is the Roundabout, a boomerang-like weapon with average damage. While it has great range, Cuphead must have his back turned for it to work. Very risky, but excellent for crowd control or fleeing from enemies. It's EX, the Jumbo Roundabout has the same concept, but can deal more damage as it will always follow Cuphead's position and will not vanish until it touches him or scoring 7 hits.
Ruby: Wait right there! We're not even finished yet! If he must, our Cup friend can get his airplane and take to the sky! With it, he can shoot at his enemies with Gatling Guns, Bombs Missiles, even shrinking itself! And even they have EX-forms! He's gun allows the Chomper Missile, which travels forward at an increased speed and deals damage to anything it touches. The bombs have the Magnet Missiles, which are kind of familiar to Mega Man's own Magnet Missiles, only that this one's home in on any target! But if he really needs serious power, he can morph into the Super Bomb, where he becomes a missile and Kamikazes anyone who stands in his way!
Demo: But weapons aren't the only thing he gains from the old kettle, he also has the Parry Slap, which helps our cup headed boy to bounce off any pink projectile, helpful for dodging attacks or building up his EX Meter!
Ed: Cuphead has encountered and collect Charms through his quest; emblems that aid him in battle. The Coffee Charm helps him fill his EX Meter without the need of the Parry skill and the Whetstone Charm turns a Parry into an Ax attack, but it only affects his first Parry only. But his favorite Charm is the Smoke Bomb, this charm allows Cuphead to dash through any attack or enemy.
Ruby: And lastly, after helping the Legendary Chalice from ghosts, three times mind you all, he got access to 3 Super Attacks! While they require a full EX Meter, its result is worth the wait! First is the Energy Beam, a Super Kamehameha made out of what I believe is boiling water! The second is Invincibility, purely for defense, it makes Cuphead immune to all damage for roughly 5 seconds. And finally, Giant Ghost, where he summons a ghost version of himself, whose purpose is to ram into bad guys! The only problem is, Cuphead has to control its movement and it lasts for 7 seconds!
Demo: HOLY SHIT! This guy has a lot of arsenal, armor, and skills! No wonder the Devil was a crying baby when he beat him!
-Feats
-Collect all soul-contracts within a day
-Cracked Goopy Le Grande's Tombstone in half
-Expert Dodger
-Destroy multiple chunks of Limestone
-Defeated Hundred of Enemies in a day
-Defeated King Dice and his minions
-Defeated the Devil and made him cry
Ed: Sure enough, with everything in hand, Cuphead and Mugman were able to collect all contracts in 24 hours. Along with defeating the likes of robots, mermaids, a three-headed dragon, ghosts, a mouse and a rat, and many but many more enemies 10 times bigger than them. He can dodge lasers, fireballs, traps, bouncing spike balls, incoming missiles, and many more.
Demo: Not forgetting that he was strong enough to break a tombstone in half and limestones. Do you guys how much force does it needs to break that shit? With the side of the trees, which they appear to be around 8 feet tall, and tombstones is made of solid cement, along with our friend here, Cuphead must have destroyed it with at least 1,400 tons of force! Holy shit, that's hard!
Ruby: And finally, he defeated the two beings who had him and his brother on the threat line. The beating was so hard, Satan was crying! And let me remind that making a deity of darkness cry isn't easy at all! In fact, is practically impossible! But not for this walking cup…. Speaking of which!
-Weakness
-Frail body
-Strictly a Ranged Fighter
-Blind by riches
Ruby: While amazing, Cuphead is still a cup, his body is frail, the reason why his specialty is dodging. He is without a doubt a ranged fighter, so no hand-to-hand battles. And finally, he is easily blind by riches, leading him to make foolish mistakes.
Ed: True, but even so, to save the day, he will never stop running like a faucet. Even the Devil had a terrible day with this morning Cup.
*Cuphead unloads a barrage of lasers before the Devil began to hold his head in pain while crying.*
Ed: All right, the combatants are set, time to end this debate once and for all!
Demo: Who will come on top?! The Shovel or the Cup?! Well, only one way to find out!
Ruby: Get ready, for a Deaaaaaaaath Battleeeeeeeeee!
A young man with a cup as a head was seen running through the woods. Along with his path, several monsters try to stop him, but the young boy never stopping running as his finger began to shoot blue lines, hitting and killing his opponents. Once it was clear, Cuphead ran through the forest to collect more soul contract.
That is….until he came to a screeching halt. He blink two times before slowly moving his face to the left, he saw a glowing light. Feeling curious, he made his way there, and when he reached it, his eyes extend out of his sockets. In front of him was a mountain of gold; coins, gems, weapons made out of silver, diamonds and more. His pupils turn into dollar signs and didn't hesitate one bit to speed forward to it, immediately beginning to pick up everything he could. However, what he didn't notice was that another figure was making its way to the mountain of gold. It was a man clad in blue armor from head to toe, and in his hands was a shovel.
Shovel Knight was following the path of expensive treasure that he accidentally dropped around. When he reached his property, he found the walking Cup picking everything he could. Gasping in shock, and anger by it, the blue adventure charge and jump into the air.
Cuphead was picking another gold coin when suddenly, he felt something wrong. He looks up and widens his eyes in surprise before running out of the way, just in time to dodge the Shovel Drop that embedded down on the ground. Rolling back to his feet, the Devil Beater was face to face with the Knight of Shovelry. Shovel proceeded to aim his blade at his opponent, daring him to come for his treasure. However, knowing he needs the gold, Cuphead simply answer by aiming his finger pistol to him. The azure knight didn't need to know that the cup won't walk away from here.
Is Gold or Nothing, Folks!
FIGHT!
The cup attack first by shooting his Peashooter, hitting Shovel Knight armor, but he wasn't bothered by this as he rushed forward with his Charge Attack and letting it swing forward. Seeing the incoming attack, Cuphead jump in the air, dodging the swing attack just in time, but his firing did not stop as they continue to hit Shovel Knight. Seeing far away, Shovel stand his blade on the ground and send his Drop Spark at super speed. Cuphead almost couldn't dodge it as the attack lightly grazed his feet when he jumped, but that long was enough for Shovel Knight to appear and slam his Shovel Blade at Cuphead, sending the cup backward. The Knight proceeded to take out his Fishing Rod and wrapped the string around the legs of the walking Cup. He pulls him to his direction as he takes out his trusty Dust Knuckles. Cuphead widen in shock at the massive knuckles, but he had the perfect counter. Just as he reaches and Shovel Knight threw its giant fist, Cuphead slam both of his hands together and shot the Mega Blast to counter the Dust Knuckles. Their attacks cause both fighters to be pushed back from each other, but Cuphead was quicker as he switched his ammo to the Chaser, sending an army of green missiles at Shovel.
Not wanting to find out what they do, Shovel began to charge forward, swinging his Shovel Blade around, dispersing each projectile on his way. He proceeded to swing once again at Cuphead, making his head spin...literally. Dazed by it, Shovel Knight use his Drop Spark which sends the walking Cup back into the woods. The Knight quickly went after his opponent trail, he went through the woods as fast he could, but he noticed that the Cup was not in sight. He began to search through the bushes, and then, was faced with a finger to the face...and a rapid fire of Spread to the face. His guard down, Cuphead jump out of the bush before using the Parry Slap on the head of the Knight. He landed behind him and used his Eight Way, the blast connecting with the back of Shovel send him blasting forward, tumbling through the dirt. Cuphead laugh at his good work, mocking the Knight with a tongue out and the eye. He then began to prepare the Charge shot.
Shovel Knight stood up and shook the dazed of him, he proceeded to take his Flare Wand and shoot the four spinning balls, at the same time Cuphead shot his Charger. Both attacks connect with each other and explode, but Shovel and Cup didn't flinch as the adventure charge at speed utensil, who quickly change to the Peashooter and fire at him. But to his shock, the lasers hit him but didn't do anything! That's because the azure hero had used his Phase Locket, and he didn't waste time on landing powerful slashes on Cuphead, finishing with using the Propeller Dagger, taking to the sky with his opponent and crashing on the top of a tree. Cuphead bounce off the wood, and landed on a big branch while Shovel Knight used his Shovel Blade to stab into the wood as it slides down. The Walking Cup quickly stood up and shook the daze off him, he looks up to see his opponent coming at him by sliding, he quickly summons the Chaser and let them fly, the green projectiles heading at the Knight. Shovel began to move left and right, dodging those he could, but some managed to hit him, and seeing that he was getting closer, he stops sliding and jumps in the air, intending to finish things up with his trademark attack, the Shovel Drop. The Devil Beater widened his eyes at the incoming drop, so he quickly summon the Chaos Orbit, just in time as the blade collides with the shield. He proceeded to turn himself into smoke to the shock of the Knight, he looks to the side to see Cuphead running away. He once again went after him.
The Running Utensil point back as began to shoot with his Roundabout sending the boomerang attacks, but Shovel Knight counter with the bouncing Chaos Sphere, which not only counters the attack, it allowed Shovel to jump and bounce on them, making him closer to Cuphead. He focuses himself to see where he was heading, only for his eyes to widened and quickly came to a screeching halt...and his feet were inches away from a cliff...which looks to be really, but really deep. The ground didn't even look to be close. Cuphead let a sigh of relief out, good thing he saw this in time...if only one could say the same thing about Shovel Knight when he crashes into him, making them both fall by the force and letting gravity do its work.
Both combatants were now free falling, but they both were very close. Seeing it like that, Cuphead immediately began to use his Lobber attack, sending the arrow-like lasers at Shovel Knight, who, after the first sent him back a bit, used his weapon to block the other arrow attacks, and after blocking one more, he used the Propeller Dagger to fly at him. Cuphead saw it and this time, he dodges it by using his Smoke Bomb Charm again. Shovel missed the attack and wasn't prepared when Cup appeared behind him and used the EX of the Charger; Radical Barrage. The explosion sent the adventurer down at maximum speed. The ground was finally at sight...only to show that the ground was filled with spikes. While been apart, both heroes widened their eyes at the incoming doom. Luckily, they both have a solution to the problem.
Cuphead proceed to whistle very loud, and soon, an airplane flew out from the clouds and quickly pick him up. Meanwhile, Shovel Knight took out the mechanical vehicle; the Mobile Gear. He threw it down and the vehicle expand, and landed on the spikes without a problem. He landed on the platform safety, and he looks up and saw his opponent...flying in a magical metal creature?! He didn't have time to think more as the plane began to drop missiles at him. Shovel immediately made his vehicle move, almost not dodging the explosive weapons. The Mobile Gear ran like a train while evading the dropping attacks as they destroy the spikes when they exploded on the ground. Knowing he can't be simply evading, he uses the Flare Wand and shot four fireballs at the plane.
Cuphead flew his plane like a ballucted, dodging all four fireballs without a problem. He proceeded to drop his bomb ammunition, which were heading to Shovel Knight's direction. Speaking of the Knight, he noticed the round black objects heading his way, and an idea pop into his head. When they got close to him, he jumps into the air and used the Shovel Drop to bounce of it, exploiting the Mobile Gear into pieces. Shovel Knight began to bounce from the bombs all the way to the airplane while charging his attacks thanks to his Dynamo Mail Armor.
Cuphead, who was looking down for his opponent location, felt a weight on the wing. He looks to the side and stares in shock at the azure knight, his Shovel Blade raised high and ready to be swing. Thankfully for Cup, he shrinks its size in time as the swing almost hit his frail head. Unfortunately for Shovel Knight, he didn't just miss his attack...he was applied by gravity's law; everything that goes up must come down. His body fell before his head did as well. The plane returns back to his size, with a Devil Beater laughing at his opponent position...until an Anchor hit and crush one of its wings. The Running Utensil simply look at the smoking wing, before it explodes, leaving him in the air in a driving possible for a few minutes before doing the 'Oh, Shit!' expression and soon received the same treatment as his opponent.
Soon, Cuphead reach Shovel Knight as they both were falling down once again, thankfully he was way above him. So, he began to use the Lobber to shoot down, but the Warrior of Shovelry use his shovel to block all the arrow attacks. And seeing that he would continue this, he went a bit extreme. He points his head down and began to spin rapidly. The Man who Beat the Enchantress stare in confusion at what he was doing before his eyes widened when he saw a light coming from the cup. And before he knew it, a blast of steamy water. The Energy Beam shot and collide with Shovel, engulfing him and sending him down faster into the ground. He landed on a big lake, which then acted like a gaizer thanks to the attack.
Cuphead landed on the water, and quickly swam to the side, jumping out and drying himself up. He was about to walk away, when a splash sound was heard, to his side, Shovel Knight came out, drying himself as well. They both stare at each other with a hard glare, daring one of the other to be the first to attack. The Devil Beater took the honor by using the Jumbo Roundabout, the ki-like ball flew directly forward, forcing Shovel to use his weapon to stop and block the attack. As he struggles with that, Cuphead ran forward while shooting his Peashooter at his opponent, who couldn't do anything but take the pain. A few moments later, the Jumbo Roundabout dispenser, which allowed Shovel Knight to re-equip his Dust Knuckles and tried to punch the incoming Cuphead, but the walking utensil saw this, turn into smoke in an instant and appeared behind him. He quickly began to used Spread on Shovel Knight, bathing him in a shower of pain. He then switched to Chaser, then Lobber, then Spread again, then Roundabout, then the Charger before using the Peashooter and finishing with a Mega Blast to the face, which this time sent Shovel flying backward into a tree hard. In pain and dazed, Cuphead summon his powerful Giant Ghost, a bigger and muscular version of the utensil. They both charge at the azure knight, and the poor fellow couldn't do anything as the ghost began to punch him around like a boxing sandbag.
Each punch given course through the body of Shovel, who was beginning to lose his view, but he could clearly see the Spiritual Being raising its fist one more time. But he still has one more trick under his sleeve. Taking a deep breath, he took out his War Horn and blew it hard, the force making Cuphead and the Ghost hold his head in pain before the Heroe was push back and the mystical being to disappear in smoke. Now both opponents were on their knees, and breathing heavily, knowing fully well that each other was at their limit…
Until Shovel Knight took out a cup and drink it, which was the Ichor of Renewal. His strength and magic returning back to normal. Cuphead blink a few time before feeling a sweat falling his head. He didn't have time when a blue blur collides with him, his Dust Knuckles hitting his face. Shovel Knight began to punch the tired body of Cuphead several times before hammer punched him in the head and planting him hard on the ground. Unable to move, Shovel Knight took his Shovel Blade out and jump hard into the air, and then, used his Shovel Drop, dropping at a fast rate. The Devil Beater only had time to look up to see the metal connecting with his head, before it shattered into pieces.
The Azure Knight jump away and landed on the ground, raising its weapon in victory before making his way back to his gold, while the ghost of Cuphead rose up into the sky, resting in pieces.
K.O!
Ruby: You know, maybe they should have put a 'Fragile' sign around him.
Demo: Agreed. Who the heck lets a cup around without knowing it can break?
Ed: True... Anyway, this match was quite in even. Both Shovel Knight and Cuphead had enough arsenal to counter each other, and are both strong enough to defeat monsters, with or without help, such as Dragons and Magic users, and fast enough to dodge incoming objects. They also have means of defense to protect each other, as well the knowledge on fighting enemies from long-range to close-range. The important factor here would be the character itself movement and achievement.
Demo: Obviously, Cuphead is way faster than Shovel Knight, only because of its frail body. But other than that, Shovel Knight takes everything by the horns. Cuphead is a long-range fighter, but his attacks lack versatility. Some of them simply go straight in line, while others lack damaged points to enemies and can be easily dodged!
Ruby: Not forgetting that Shovel Knight wasn't a stranger against long-range attackers. And has fought monsters who use magic like Cuphead. Besides, Shovel Knight was way too strong and durable for him, not only that, Cuphead need to hit him with his attack, which was very impossible since Shovel was the same size as him and would not stand still like Cup's enemies!
Demo: But wait! What about Cuphead's strength at destroying that big ass Tombstone, or his Super Arts?
Ed: Don't start whining like a baby. While impressive, Cuphead need to hit Goopy Le' Grande grave several times for it to finally crack. And both Energy Beam and Giant Ghost would have been a problem if Shovel Knight hasn't fought beings like that before. Not only that, but the Super Arts required time to charge up, something that Shovel Knight wouldn't allow since he was a moving target.
Ruby: And you know? I think Shovel defense is way better that Cuphead's. I mean, the Phase Locket and the Ichor of Boldness trump's the Invisibility Super in many ways. The Phase Locket last less, but he could use it more times than one! And I don't need to explain the Ichor of Boldness.
Demo: And finally! The very important thing, the means to recovery... SERIOUSLY! If Shovel's Magic and Strength were empty, he only needs to drink the Ichor of Renewal to regain it, while good old cup sustains his injuries!
Ed: At the end of the day, our Knight of Shovelry had the strength and broader arsenal allow him to take this victory from Cuphead's hand. As well showing he could heal himself, putting more salt to the wound.
Demo: You could say Shovel shattered more than our expectations on this fight!
Ruby; The winner is Shovel Knight!
