The '''Mint Decavitator''' is a [[main weapon]] in {{S3}}, made by [[Weapon brand#Neo|Neo]]. It is a [[Splatana]] which attacks horizontally even when fully charged. It was added to the game as part of [[Sizzle Season 2024]] on {{Date|2024-06-01}}.


==''Splatoon 3''==
==Appearance==
The Mint Decavitator is a weapon that combines aspects of a ''katana'' and an oversized electric toothbrush contained within a large, clear plastic sheath. The toothbrush has five clusters of bristles arranged in a line that alternate between blue and teal, adorned with a blob of striped toothpaste dispensed from a reservoir in the handle (alternating stripes of white and the wielder's ink color), as well as a white handle with blue trim, a pull trigger, and what appear to be three LEDs on its front. The sheath has a blue hinged cap at its tip, a ring handle, and three slotted openings towards its distal end. A [[Weapon brand#Neo|Neo]] logo can also be seen on the handle of the toothbrush, and an unknown wordmark on the outside of the sheath.
 
When performing uncharged slashes, the toothbrush remains inside the sheath, but during a charged slash the wielder will draw the toothbrush to perform an ''[[wp:Iaijutsu|iaijutsu]]''-style slash before re-sheathing it.

==Trivia==
*The Mint Decavitator and [[Wellstring V]] are the only 2 weapons in the ''Splatoon'' series where both the new weapon and their second kit got released in the same update.


==Etymology==
==Etymology==
"Mint" references the color (and presumably flavor) of the toothpaste inside the weapon. "Decavitator" comes from "de-" + "cavity", as toothbrushes are used to prevent tooth cavities.
Mint is a common flavoring for toothpaste. "Decavitator" comes from "de-" + "cavity", as toothbrushes are used to prevent tooth cavities. It is also a play on "decapitation", or the act of separating the head and body (for example, with a sword).

The Mint Decavitator is a main weapon in Splatoon 3, made by Neo. It is a Splatana which attacks horizontally even when fully charged. It was added to the game as part of Sizzle Season 2024 on 1 June 2024.

Appearance

The Mint Decavitator is a weapon that combines aspects of a katana and an oversized electric toothbrush contained within a large, clear plastic sheath. The toothbrush has five clusters of bristles arranged in a line that alternate between blue and teal, adorned with a blob of striped toothpaste dispensed from a reservoir in the handle (alternating stripes of white and the wielder's ink color), as well as a white handle with blue trim, a pull trigger, and what appear to be three LEDs on its front. The sheath has a blue hinged cap at its tip, a ring handle, and three slotted openings towards its distal end. A Neo logo can also be seen on the handle of the toothbrush, and an unknown wordmark on the outside of the sheath.

When performing uncharged slashes, the toothbrush remains inside the sheath, but during a charged slash the wielder will draw the toothbrush to perform an iaijutsu-style slash before re-sheathing it.

Data

  • The Mint Decavitator is a middleweight weapon.
  • The matchmaking range is 15. The game's matchmaking system looks at a team's average matchmaking range value, and matches them against a team with a similar average.
  • The Mint Decavitator fires projectiles as it swings.
  • The Mint Decavitator can lunge forward if the user performs a charge slash while moving forward on the ground.
  • The Mint Decavitator cannot store its charge.

Horizontal slash (pressing ZR)

  • The ink consumption of 6.5% per slash allows the user to slash 15 times per ink tank.
  • After slashing, there is a 50 frame cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.
  • While slashing, the user's speed is set to 0.055 units per frame.
  • The projectile of the slash deals 40 damage, and the blade itself deals 30 damage, for a combined total of 70 damage.
  • The projectile hitbox consists of multiple smaller hitboxes that become larger the closer they are to the center of the projectile. The center hitbox has a radius of 0.3 units, and the edge hitboxes have a radius of 0.25 units. The hitboxes span a length of 2.4 units.
  • The projectile travels at 2.3 units per frame for 6 frames, when combined with its spawn position, it travels a total distance of 15.2 units.
  • The blade hitbox extends about 3.9 units in front of the user, and about 1.8 units to either side of the user.
  • The time between continuous slashes is 30 frames.
  • The user can submerge in ink 27 frames after the slash starts.
  • The blade hitbox appears 9 frames after the slash starts, and the projectile appears 12 frames after the slash starts.

Horizontal charge slash (holding ZR)

  • The ink consumption of 13% per slash allows the user to slash 7 times per ink tank.
  • After slashing, there is a 50 frame cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.
  • While charging or slashing, the user's speed is set to 0.055 units per frame.
  • The projectile of the slash deals 80 damage, and the blade itself deals 160 damage, for a combined total of 240 damage.
  • The projectile hitbox consists of multiple smaller hitboxes that become larger the closer they are to the center of the projectile. The center hitbox has a radius of 0.3 units, and the edge hitboxes have a radius of 0.25 units. The hitboxes span a length of 4.8 units.
  • The projectile travels at 0.7 units per frame for 21 frames, when combined with its spawn position, it travels a total distance of 16.1 units.
  • The blade hitbox extends about 5.5 units in front of the user, and about 1.8 units to either side of the user.
  • It takes 20 frames to fully charge the weapon.
    • If the user is out of ink, then it takes 60 frames to fully charge the weapon.
  • The swing animation lasts for 32 frames.
  • The user can submerge in ink 30 frames after the slash starts.
  • The blade hitbox appears 20 frames after the slash starts, and the projectile appears 23 frames after the slash starts.
  • Lunges cover a distance of 5.5 units.
  • After 8 frames of startup, the lunge lasts for 15 frames. The blade hitbox appears after 34 frames, and the projectile appears after 37 frames.
    • The total animation lasts for 46 frames, after which the weapon can be used again.
    • The user can submerge in ink 46 frames after the animation starts.

Sheldon's Introduction

The Mint Decavitator is a splatana with an extra-wide attack. You won't believe how much ink you fling with every swipe! Especially charged swipes! They can leave you open, but that's easily worth being able to close distance quickly while inking a wide swath. The key to a successful charge attack is maintaining space between you and your foes. The Suction Bomb sub weapon can help with that! And with the Big Bubbler special, you can toss out ink with those juicy swipes or hold strategic points from the safety of your bubble. For best results, apply consistent, even strokes across the battlefield. Celebratory flossing optional!

The Mint Decavitator is a fresh Splatana with unique separating parts. When swung horizontally, the whole body unleashes ink waves. When charged, it unleashes a wide-reaching close range attack in a flash!

Trivia

  • The Mint Decavitator and Wellstring V are the only 2 weapons in the Splatoon series where both the new weapon and their second kit got released in the same update.

Etymology

Mint is a common flavoring for toothpaste. "Decavitator" comes from "de-" + "cavity", as toothbrushes are used to prevent tooth cavities. It is also a play on "decapitation", or the act of separating the head and body (for example, with a sword).
