The Knights of the Ebon Spade were an EDBW tag team consisting of The Lich King and Shovel Knight. Their name was derived from the World of Warcraft faction the Knights of the Ebon Blade, and shovels. After being formed in the first Random Tag Team Tournament, their focus shifted from tag team competition to Shovel Knight serving as the Lich King's minion, until their breakup and subsequent feud in Season 5.
