Triple Blade

Triple Blade (トリプルブレイド) is Blade Man's special weapon in Mega Man 10. When equipped, the player fires three blades that move in three different directions, being able to attack multiple enemies at one time. There are two patterns: surface-to-air on the ground, and air-to-surface in mid-jump. It can sometimes destroy Shield Attackers from the front.

Triple Blade is Strike Man's primary weakness - not only can this weapon destroy his Rebound Strikers, but each blade can damage him separately, making very short work of him.

Trivia

 * In the official artwork (seen above), Mega Man appears to be magenta when using Triple Blade, while all three playable characters are purple when they are using the Triple Blade.
 * The weapon is similar to the Blade Launcher, the Special Weapon Mega Man receives from Blade Man in Mega Man 3 for DOS, in which both weapons involve Mega Man firing cutting weapons in a spread-like pattern.
