Well Shovel Knight actually hasn't got any impressive feats. Sure he's defeated the 'Enchantress' but due to the format of the game, its hard to determine at what level she actually is and this works with the other characters in that verse meaning that DB will have to rely on the crossover sections with him defeating Kratos and Battletoads which could be written off as outliers.

From what I gather Scrooge has stats while Shovel Knight has versatility. Scrooge has apparently survived atmospheric re-entry and swims through gold coins as if they were water. With a bigger arsenal, Shovel Knight could easily pull off a win especially with his phase locket (intangibility) and war horn (which instantly kills any and all enemies surrounding Shovel Knight).

tldr: Scrooge has Shovel Knight beat in terms of actual feats but Shovel Knight's relics could easily grant him enough hax and versatility to win.
