Re: Shovel Knight: Conjuration of Birbs
Today on "JSK kicks his shins for dying in the penultimate screen of the challenge": Unarmed Ascent!
Seriously, I got pretty far in that one area before I died and just decided to ignore the challenge. If only I knew...
Also, let's hope King Knight doesn't have to face off against those Invincibirders. If the regular ones were already annoying, those might end up breaking faces left and right.

the spector knight fight was an amusing display of raocow failing to grasp simple hitboxes while simultaniously pulling off impressive counterattacks with the propeller dagger to avoid damage.
man, after an entire playthrough of plague of shadows, plague knight's boss sprite is just...off looking. Maybe this is why its just a pure black silhouette in the self boss battle.

Why in the world would you use a temporary invincibility item while making little to no effort to dodge 90% of the attacks being thrown your way??

Re: Shovel Knight: Chrysopoeia of Roentgenium
Boss PK is pretty devious in using that teleportation spell. Too bad it would've broken the platforming even more than his Bomb Bursts do.
Also, funny note: raocow seems to have had the most trouble against the currently playable knights today. gee i wonder why~

hear me out: using the phase locket takes a few seconds to activate, and the bosses are mostly race challenges. That's where my brain went for a bit.

Well, I guess it all depends on health going in and time. Figuring out how to balance everything is the key. At least you got it eventually!

2 episodes left by my reckoning, and I know basically nothing about what's up next, Fly'N.

I think the reason for the Alchemy Coin on Tinker Knight was so you could bounce off it to get onto his lance without waiting for him to attack. Could be wrong, it's been a while since I played the game and I didn't get that far in it.
Re: Shovel Knight: Plauge/Shovel of Shadows/Hope - JDTIYMUW
Really feels like they missed a lot of opportunity on these boss refights. Why not instead of facetanking plague knight and rushing down, force the player to only deal damage via reflected potions or something? There's a lot of abilities and properties shovel knight has that they didn't really do anything with.

Re: Shovel Knight: Butter of butter
Whoo, Charge Blade! Too bad it only ended up useful against Mole Knight. At least those easy victories against Polar and Black Knights made up for it!
Re: Shovel Knight: Plauge/Shovel of Shadows/Hope - J&2JMP!
another way to think it; temporary invincibility, and knockback immunity are among the most broken abilities in video games because it means you dont have to waste time dodging and can win in damage races. (one online game i played used this strat for a strict time limit boss fight as it was literally faster to button mash and spam heals between attacks then it was to actually show some skill and dodge the attacks )
for Plague Knight however, he jumps around so damn much by the time the animation stops he's already hoped to the other side of the arena, arg.
Re: Shovel Knight: Plauge/Shovel of Shadows/Hope - JDTIYMUW
Shame on the Tinker Knight fight. You had him the first time if you wouldn't have fallen twice near the end. Then you made up for it with the skilled last-second finish on Black Knight.
Re: Shovel Knight: Plauge/Shovel of Shadows/Hope - AVYMDUZS
That Baz fight was really cool. More of them should be gimmicky like that.

Re: Shovel Knight: The Philosopher's Shovel
Congrats on beating the game, raocow!
So yeah, I still say that Plague Knight is the superior of the two but only because of his expanded range options compared to Shovel Knight. That said, when the Blue Burrower's capable of doing such feats in the right hands, it's a sight to behold.
Looking forward to seeing Specty in action one day. I've already got ideas on what I'll title my posts after then.

For why there wasn't a sheild knight campaign, Yacht club did a kickstarter vote only on playable bosses, and sheild knight wasn't an option, only the "enchantress" was.

Something to note is that the concept ideas on that page for plague and spectre knight aren't too far off from what they did, so that can give us an idea of what king knight's campgain might be, which is strutting to build meter and using money to cheat in levels. Or we can just wait and see if they reveal it at E3 next week.

Re: Shovel Knight: Plauge/Shovel of Shadows/Hope - final - TVSVUEIO
I completely forgot about Shield Knight. I think raocow even mentioned her earlier in the LP and I just chalked it up to raocow naming characters random things.
