TheOre Club (巨塔,Giant Tower) is club-type weapon that debuted inKid Icarus: Uprising for the Nintendo 3DS.
Origin[edit]
The Ore Club was first seen inKid Icarus: Uprising, as the most basic of all theclub-type weapons in the game. Typically, clubs deal very high melee damage with a two-hit combo while saddling the user with a low running speed. Holding fire builds up a charged shot, albeit rather slowly, which deals a large amount of damage; as inSmash, the Ore Club's charged shot is a tornado with a wide radius and average homing. Like other clubs, the Ore Club has no continuous fire; instead, the user swings the weapon repeatedly, which will deflect any projectiles in the direction they came.
InSuper Smash Bros. 4[edit]
The Ore Club appears as an item inSuper Smash Bros. 4. It is the game's only "heavy" battering item: it has a slow swing speed, but does very high damage and knockback in return. Additionally, the user gainssuper armor during asmash attack (both while charging and attacking), which persists until the hitbox ends. Therefore, while the swings can becountered by opponents, this prevents the user from being sent flying, although they will still be damaged.
Like theStar Rod, the Ore Club also functions as both a battering and shooting item. Smash attacks with the club produces a tornado that travels across the stage, dealing multiple hits to enemies, and also causes any grounded items to get sent into the air. Each club can only produce six tornadoes. The size of the tornado and the distance it travels increases the more the attack is charged; an uncharged tornado is larger than the largest base size of any character, and is able to travel the length ofFinal Destination. Also like the Star Rod, throwing the club at an opponent will result in asemi-spike.
While the club's tornadoes are potentially the largest projectiles in the game, they can still bereflected andeaten. They can also beshielded without issue, which will cause the tornado to disappear.Computer players will actively take advantage of them by constantly using and charging the Ore Club's smash attack when distanced away from other players, which is distinct from their behavior with other battering items. InSmash 3DS prior toversion 1.0.5, they would not even use the item properly, constantly usingforward tilts with it instead of its forward smashes.
For unknown reasons, Ore Clubs will not flash before disappearing.

Trophy[edit]
- Ore Club
A weapon fashioned from minerals found on the mountain of the gods, this club is infused with a soul, giving it an ominous eye in its center. Maybe it's just my imagination, but I think the eye winks at you each time you land a perfect, wall-penetrating shot.
A weapon rough-hewn from minerals mined from the mountain of the gods. When complete, this weapon was imbued with a soul, which made a large glowing eye open in the centre. Not only is it immensely powerful, but it does wonders for your hand-eye coordination.
