Shard

The Shard glove was added on February 19th, 2022 and is the 15th special glove in Slap Battles. It is obtained by getting the "Firefighter" badge, which requires you to extinguish an OVERKILL glove user's glove 5 times under a minute without dying. It has the ability Ice Shards.

Ability
The ability creates 3 floating ice shards in front of the player who used it, and will become less transparent overtime. When the ice shards are no longer transparent, they will charge forward in the direction the player is facing. Any player hit by the ice shards will be knocked back and will be temporarily be slowed down, similar to the Snow glove's passive ability, 3/10, the shards are fast, but aren't good in fights most of the time, because of the charge up and the fact its aiming is limited.



Target Value
This glove can be highly targeted due to players being able to jump to avoid any ice shards that are summoned, and finish you off easily. Since the shards that are summoned, and its passive, can extinguish the OVERKILL glove, you will mainly not see any OVERKILL glove users coming for you, 8/10.

Ranking
While it is nice to finally have a dedicated OVERKILL glove counter, it's not as good as it seems. The shards created upon pressing E have a super small hitbox, so it's hard to hit players with them. Adding on to this, when you slap a player, nothing special happens. This makes both the Snow and Ice glove better, both for countering OVERKILL glove and for general combat, as the Snow glove can combo players very easily, and the Ice glove has a greater chance of just hitting them off of the island outright.
