Drum (Wrecking Crew)
A drum,[1][2] also referred to as a Dead-End Drum (originally lowercase),[3] is an indestructible type of object in Wrecking Crew that is usually for blocking paths. By breaking the pillar beneath, drums can be dropped on enemies or players to trap them permanently, including by walking on them. If player characters become stuck, the player is required to reset the phase.
They reappear in the Wrecking Crew stage in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the latter of which refers to them as oil drums.[4] Fighters can become stuck in an oil drums, leaving them vulnerable to opponents, though an oil drum can break if the fighter either wriggles around, they get launched out by an opponent, or a floor crashes onto it.
