shovel always crits
sorry gaijin but shovels and spades are not the same thing
The first shovel that you show was in team fortress 2
You should have talked about how shovels were also used as weapons in world war 1
Reasons why a shovel is a better weapon than a gun or a sword:
Gun requires doing a lot of paperwork and waiting to get one, plus there is a lot of red tape, shovels, on the other hand, you can just go to a hardware store and get one.
In this day and age, it is very hard to get a hold of a fully functional sword.
A shovel is used in ww1
Then why can't he beat Uncle Scrooge McDuck in a fight to the death?
and also if you look closely he just has a normal shovel

Shovel.
A very epic weapon and tool.
Shovel Knight is well on it's wayt o being the only game I will ever 100%. I honestly love it. I made the mistake of getting it for my NEW 3DS XL, and now I can't stop playing it…
Soldiers in world war 1 would use shovels as weapon when all else failed.
What about WW1? Wasn't that a big war for the shovel warriors?
gaijin goomba broke the ninja's promise
His shovel is more of a big headed spear than a garden tool

Game theorist stop repping off
Anyone else thought he shoved the spade inside the black edgy ninja guy's butthole?
Just raising a point here, but some of the rhino guards in Kung Fu Panda use the weaponised shovels.
I promise GG. Those freaky fumon won’t get to me. #DontBeAFumon
World War 1 had people using shovels instead of baionettes because of UTILITY RESULTING IN PERSONAL PREFERENCE!!! not only is a dull bladed piece of iron in a two hand stick, is a short light polearm….
the simple spade or small shovel was the best hand weapon in the trenches of ww1
Shovel vs plate armor
Figure
The good version of a fumon is a zumon. Basically just inverted fumon colors
If I saw someone in a full suit of armor running towards me threateningly with a blunt weapon, I'd be F***ing terrified
You are awesome
What does the writing on the fumon's chest say?
Guys like Triple H, the Kliq, Hogan, Cena, & now Roman Reigns all uses a Shovel to Bury young Talent.
Where can I buy the first shovel multi tool
