Wicked Witch[]

W WickedWitch Icon
Wicked Witch
Shoots a cackling witch that acts somewhat like a normal shot, but has an odd trajectory at times when shot. The witch does have a bit of AOE, meaning a slight miss can still hit. If the witch hits a bumper, there can be unexpected results, similar to the Spaz family.

Tips & Trivia[ | ]

  • Like most weapons, wicked witch follows a normal arc when shot. However, its arc is hidden and is not traced. Wicked witch will move about semi-randomly, however it will ultimately follow the path of this hidden arc, similarly to Spaz and Rocket Fire. This hidden arc is affected by portals, black holes, wind and round bumpers. Flat bumpers and side bumpers will not change the arc's trajectory.
  • Ghouls following its hidden arc through a bumper.

    Since the hidden arc is not affected by flat bumpers, wicked witch can be aimed straight through said bumpers. Video example provided.
  • The hidden arc can pass through the center of a black hole, but it can get held in there, leading the witch/brooms/ghouls to gravitate towards the black hole further.
  • The visible shots are never affected by black hole, as it always follows the hidden arc. However, it can still be swallowed by the black hole if it touches the center.
  • It is possible for the hidden arc to pass through portals and black holes while the visible attack never does, which result in no trick shot XP bonus.
  • You will only receive trick shot XP bonuses, as well as activate buffs and drones, if one of the visible shots does a trick shot. Hidden arc is not considered.
  • The animation that plays when a shot goes off-screen is played for both when the hidden arc leaves the screen, as well as when a visible shot leaves the screen. Witch has a single hidden arc, while both brooms share an arc, as well as both ghouls; which can lead to extra animations being played.
