The Hedgehog is a Special weapon introduced in the 12.6.0 update.
Appearance
The weapon has the main colors of red, orange, and grey, and dark grey. It has 3 spikes protruding on the top and 1 on the bottom of the opening. It has a scope above a small, black skull symbol with red eyes. When holding it in the armory, the middle grey section wiggles.
Strategy
It has very good damage, a decent fire rate, a small capacity, and an average mobility. It is 2 shots with bleeding.
- Place the mines on hidden spots in intersections where players pass through a lot.
- It is a good counter against melee players. The same goes for area damage melee spammers (e.g. Storm Hammer, Electrosphere, Chipping Whip)
- Hit a opponent and finish them off with a powerful primary.
- Only use it for traps making as it performs poor on direct combats.
- Use this in close range maps, as it can trap others easily.
- Trap people by putting the mines down in front of an entrance where you entered.
Counters
- When fighting against an opponent with a close range weapon, use this.

- Be wary of small areas where the bombs might be rigged.
- Avoid narrow hallways since that area will be vulnerable to its projectiles.
