When hit, it spins either slowly or quickly (depending on either the speed [[knockback]] when contacted, or the strength of the attack), blocking passage and causing light (though generally repeated) damage when touched. Aside from causing general havoc in a fray, they can also be placed strategically at integral locations, such as [[ledge]]s or against walls. This will prevent your opponent from recovering, or not allow them to pass through certain points. The downfalls of this item are easy avoidability and relatively short duration on the field. | ||
