The Candy Axe is a Melee weapon introduced in the 15.7.0 update.
Description[]
It is an icy axe that attacks and bleeds opponents in close range. It has good damage, decent attack speed, and fast mobility. It is 3 - 4 hits with bleeding.
Appearance[]
It appears to be a Christmas-themed axe. The handle is a candy cane and the axe head is presumably light blue candy. There are Christmas ornaments around the candy cane.
Performance[]
This weapon, being a melee, can attack players in close range by swinging it. Moreover, this has a bleeding attribute, which makes players lose extra health for a few seconds.
It has Fixed Delay. This means that once the player switches from any weapon to this weapon, the Candy Axe will always have a pull-up delay lasting around half of a second.
Strategy[]
Tips[]
- Use it like any other melee weapon.
- Use the bleeding to weaken players.

- Try not to go near its users as this weapon can take you out in 3 - 4 hits.
