Whirling Accelerandos are Jelleton enemies in Splatoon 3: Side Order. When it sees the player, it charges up, and rotates violently towards their direction.
Appearance
The Whirling Accelerando somewhat resembles a spinning top. They could be based off wheel animalcules, judging by their mouthparts and association with spinning.
Strategy
- Whirling Accelerandos can only be damaged when their weak spot, the head, sticks out. It is invulnerable while it is spinning.
- After defeating one, it leaves behind a top that the player can walk into to propel it forwards. This then inks the ground and deals damage to enemies.
Quotes
