Stun Medusa

It is based on Medusa, one of the Gorgons from Greek mythology. It was said that anyone who met her gaze was instantly petrified. Originally she was a beautiful woman, but was transformed into a monster by Athena, turning her hair into living snakes.

It is a re-mold of Shinobi Shadow, but with several important changes in its shape:

• > Its upper curves are lower and more subtle.

• > In Shinobi, these formed three crossed divisions in the shape of a swirl; in Medusa, the periphery is continuous and each section begins where the previous one ends.

• > As a result, the widest and most aggressive point in Shinobi remains toward the inside, while in Medusa it is positioned directly on the periphery.

• > That point goes from being rounded to flat and sharp in Medusa.

• > Its design incorporates six snake heads: three prominent and three more subtle.

• > It is approximately 1.4 g lighter.

Shinobi Shadow was already a Blade with a very specific style and mega complicated to make perform consistently: it depended on its lightness to shoot out, break the rival's attack cadence, and surprise with occasional impacts thanks to its curves.

Medusa, on the other hand, makes everything incredibly worse... Having three flat front walls, a sharp top edge, and being more exposed by sitting on the edge, noticeably increase the recoil without providing any benefits. And if that wasn't enough, it is one of the lightest Blades in the game, considerably more than Shinobi, which aggravates its condition even more.

As a result, it loses energy faster, it is easier to send flying, and it tends to get easily trapped in the stadium pockets. So it is super harder for it to survive than for Shinobi.
