Using it on unexperienced players results in cheap wins very often. It just takes the skill out of the game.

Actually shoveling is very easy to counter. Just use their own momentum against them. I rather enjoy it when people try to shovel me. :P

How do you use their momentum against them when they grab you at your lumbar?
And the only way to use their momentum (which goes forward and up) would be to let yourself fall back and make an overhead throw.

I feel that certain servers usually get ruined when there's one person sitting on one side just shoveling every turn. I really don't see how someone would find enjoyment in winning in that fashion every turn.

As someone has stated before, it takes the enjoyment out of a match when it resorts to counter shovels.

i dont really care about shoveling its just a game... i mean you cant tell me none of you have shoveld at least one time in your entire time on toribash (even though it does get annoying after a while trying to counter it.
When you get caught masturbating, look the person in the eyes and finish like a beast.
