Is there any advantage to catching Shield Knight?
In the dream sequences, you are asked to 'catch her' meaning Shield Knight who will fall after a little while.
But I wonder, if you just don't catch her, does anything change? Are there any consequences if you fail that?
Best Answer
If you're trying to speedrun the game, it's slightly faster. The dream sequence ends as soon as you make contact with Shield Knight, so trying to catch her will end the sequence sooner.
However, what has a greater effect here is that Shield Knight will begin falling immediately if you get killed by the enemies during the dream sequence. The current Any% world record does a combination of the two, dying and getting knocked into Shield Knight's path, to end each dream sequence as quickly as possible:

What happens if you catch Shield Knight?
Catching Shield Knight in the final catch scene will slightly change the dialogue. If you fail to catch Shield Knight before the final boss, she will say "...you came for me." instead of "...you caught me." If you are speedrunning the game, catching Shield Knight will end the scene early.Does shovel Knight Love Shield Knight?
