Critical reception
Shelly has received a generally positive reception, garnering positive reviews from publications including Gamezebo, IGN, and Newsweek.
Gamezebo stated that "she’s both a strong character who can hold her own in solo matchups and a well-rounded brawler across most game types. Since every player has access to Shelly, you’ll come across her frequently in lower trophy games, but she’s powerful enough that she’s a common fixture even in higher level play."<ref name=":1" />
