UNUSED/REMOVED CONTENT

The Drumstick was an Item that could've been obtained and used in combat in MultiVersus.

The Item has been completely scrapped as of the full release of the game, although its model still appears as a reused asset for when a Fighter that has been turned into a Roast Chicken by Taz gets attacked or breaks out of this form, leaving behind two smaller Drumstick-like items behind which slightly heal the Fighter which picks them up.

Origin

The Drumstick was based on a cooked chicken's leg, which had been used various times as a joke in Looney Tunes media involving characters such as Taz, Henery Hawk, and Foghorn Leghorn. The Roast Chicken it turns Fighters into is also based on the numerous skinned "living" chickens seen throughout old Looney Tunes shorts, especially in the ones involving the aforementioned bird duo.

Function

The Drumstick can be thrown at opponents in order to turn them into Roast Chicken, similar to Taz's passive ability, Bottomless Pit. While a Roast Chicken, Fighters can't attack and can only run, jump, taunt, and, in Iron Giant's case in particular, hover. The effect usually lasts about 10 seconds.

When a Fighter that has been turned into a Roast Chicken either by Taz or by the Drumstick item gets attacked or breaks out of this form, they will leave two smaller Drumstick-like items behind, which slightly heal the Fighter which picks them up.
