Twisted Scraps

Twisted Scraps maintains the general shape of her Toon counterpart but with several corrupted details. Her skin is noticeably more desaturated. The tips of her magenta ears are taller, sharper, and lightly coated in Ichor. She wears a wide, predatory grin that exposes rows of sharp teeth. Her eyes follow the standard Twisted color scheme with the addition of narrow vertical slits in each pupil, and her face carries a dark purplish blush. The edges of her dress have become jagged and pointed, her claws are sharper, and her paws bear traces of Ichor, though her talons remain clean. Her magenta cup is now cracked down the middle with both halves sharpened to resemble a reptilian jaw, and the whole cup is smeared with Ichor. When she spots a Toon, her eyes widen and her mouth opens in eager anticipation.

Twisted Scraps is a roaming Twisted who behaves similarly to her brother, Twisted Goob. She possesses a ranged attack on a 15-second cooldown, in which she extends her tail toward a player to strike them for one Heart of damage. She can also hit players with a standard melee attack at close range, just like other Twisteds. As with Twisted Goob's ranged pull, Twisted Scraps' tail strike can be avoided by ducking behind an obstacle in time, using Bobette's Precious Packaging ability with proper timing, equipping Cardboard Armor (which blocks one hit per Floor), or playing as Soulvester.

Twisted Scraps shares the ranged attack archetype with Twisted Goob, but her version works differently — rather than pulling you toward her or closing the distance herself, she extends her tail to strike you at range, then enters a 15-second cooldown. To dodge the attack, break line of sight the moment she winds up her tail swing. Ducking behind any island or obstacle is the simplest way to block it.

Her attack pattern mirrors Twisted Goob's closely enough that strategies for one apply well to the other. Take advantage of her lower attention span and slower speed to plan your distraction routes. If no designated distractor is available, you can stall her by baiting out her ranged ability and then slipping out of sight, much as you would with Twisted Goob.

Do not underestimate Twisted Scraps during Blackouts. If you know she is on the Floor and she spots you, immediately get behind an obstacle, as her tail can lash out with no visual warning in the dark. Brightney and Vee are both strong picks for countering her. When distracting Twisted Scraps, orbit around an object to block her tail, but periodically re-expose yourself to maintain aggro and prevent her from wandering toward teammates.

She is significantly more dangerous in wide open areas with minimal cover. Always keep obstacles in mind and sprint toward the nearest one if she locks on. Her above-average direct vision means she can spot you from farther away than most Twisteds, so exercise caution in areas where you need to work on Machines. Be especially careful when extracting in open spaces.

Smoke Bomb does not counter her ranged attack once she has visual contact. The same goes for Connie's Haunting Escape. However, if her tail strike is already on cooldown, she will lose interest in you more quickly. Additionally, her ranged ability, like Twisted Goob's, has no effect on Soulvester.

If Twisted Scraps is lurking near the Elevator, try to recall whether she has already used her tail strike recently. If it is on cooldown, make a break for the Elevator while avoiding her melee range. If the tail strike is available, bait it out first by drawing her aggro, hiding behind a nearby obstacle to force a missed attack, then dash for the Elevator during the 15-second cooldown window. Memorize her cooldown timing and when she last attacked — spending too long outside the Elevator invites a hit.

Her main weakness is her low speed. If you can consistently orbit an island and dodge her tail strikes, she becomes one of the more manageable Twisteds. Her lower attention span compared to Twisted Goob also works in your favor.

Completing 100% Research on Twisted Scraps unlocks:

• Twisted Scraps can attack Toons at range but cannot pull them toward her, while Twisted Goob can pull but cannot strike at distance. This parallels their Toon counterparts' ability design. Unlike her Toon counterpart, however, Twisted Scraps does not move toward Toons during her attack — she only deals damage.
• She is among the first Twisteds with a ranged attack, alongside Twisted Goob, Twisted Razzle & Dazzle, and Twisted Rodger. Later ranged Twisteds include Twisted Sprout, Twisted Gigi, and Twisted Blot.
• Among ranged Twisteds, only Twisted Scraps, Twisted Goob, and Twisted Gigi have attacks that can be blocked by Cardboard Armor. Only Twisted Scraps and Twisted Goob's attacks are additionally blocked by Soulvester's Passive Ability.
• On her first encounter on any Floor, she will always lead with her ranged ability. The same behavior applies to Twisted Gigi and Twisted Goob.
• Twisted Scraps, Twisted Gigi, and Twisted Goob share several traits — all are Rare Twisteds with ranged attacks that trigger on first encounter. None of their abilities can be denied by Smoke Bombs, Connie's Haunting Escape, or Blot's Blot Jr., but Bobette's Active Ability and Cardboard Armor can block them. If any of them target Blot Jr. first and attack it, their ability goes on cooldown.
• Neither Smoke Bombs, Connie's Haunting Escape, nor Blot's Blot Jr. can prevent Twisted Scraps' tail strike from connecting. However, if Blot deploys Blot Jr. and Twisted Scraps targets it first, she will use her melee attack on it, which oddly triggers her tail attack cooldown. If she has already locked on to Blot before Blot Jr. is deployed, the tail strike still hits the player. Bobette's Active Ability bypasses all of these limitations.
• She was the first Twisted to appear on the Daily Twisted Board, as shown in the Behind-the-Scenes channel on the official BlushCrunch Discord server on July 27.
• Twisted Scraps and Twisted Goob share the smallest hearing range in the game at only 100 studs.
• Excluding stationary Twisteds like Twisted Blot and Twisted Squirm, she has the slowest chase speed among Rare Twisteds at 16, tying with Twisted Coal on non-Blackout Floors and Twisted Goob. They also match Twisted Dandy, Twisted Dyle at minimum speed, and Twisted Soulvester.
• She was among the last Twisteds to receive optimization, alongside Twisted Brightney and Twisted Goob. She and Twisted Goob were the final Rare Twisteds to be optimized.
• Before her optimization, using Brightney or Vee's Active Abilities or Party Popper did not highlight her tail. The same issue affected Twisted Goob's arms and both of their Toon counterparts.
