Viper Tail
Analysis
A 6-sided blade designed to passively wear down the opponent. The blade features an unconventional set of 6 downward-facing points. These points are meant to shave the stamina of opponents over time with repeated, continual attacks. Conversely, the rest of the blade is relatively smooth, in order to minimize wind resistance. These aspects combined create a blade with the ability to damage the opponent with minimal recoil.
Value
Unfortunately, despite its unique concept, Viper Tail sees minimal use in competitive play, outside of niche attack customizations. Due to its design focusing around repeated attacks from above, it can only work best on tall ratchets, which limits its possible uses. While it doesn't necessarily perform poorly, it is overshadowed by other stamina-oriented blades which perform much more favorably. As a result, Viper Tail is a low-priority part in competitive play.
