The Black Club is one of the twelve different Clubs in Kid Icarus Uprising. It has high attack power and excellent homing ability, but is severely lacking in charge time and shot speed.

The Black Club has proven to be one of the most popular weapons in the game, being frequently used in multiplayer.

Idol description

While the mysterious Black Club's attack power and homing ability are high, its charge time and shot speed are slow. And not only do its charged shots cancel out enemy fire, they look really cool doing it too!

Base statistics

Notice:
Weapon data is for weapons with zero ranged and melee stars with no mods to them. Distance refers to the maximum range a shot can travel, measured with non-homing shots. Damage (near) refers to the damage done when the target is as close as possible. Damage (far) refers to the damage given at maximum range. The symbol "—" means the corresponding stat is not applicable to that specific attack.

Trivia

  • The Black Club may be a reference to the Black Monolith from the famous sci-fi novel series and movie, 2001: A Space Odyssey. The Monolith was said to have sparked human evolution, and the Black Club is rumored to contain all the intentions of people throughout the universe.[1]
