Slicer official artwork.
Slicer (Kamakiller カマキラー) is a mantis-like robot built by Doctor Eggman. It appeared as an enemy in the Metropolis Zone in Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and in the Mad Gear Zone in Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1. Slicer also appears in the Gigantic Angel Zone in Sonic Pocket Adventure, behaving the same way as it did in the Metropolis Zone.
Attack Pattern
When a Slicer notices the player, it throws its razor-sharp claws in a boomerang-like fashion. This attack is surprisingly hard to avoid, although the Slicer is very vulnerable without its claws. In Sonic the Hedgehog 4, after throwing their claws, they self-destruct if left alone for a while. Slicers are quite infamous for their somewhat unavoidable placements. Some of them can be found hanging on ceilings.

Slicer—how could we ever forget you? The one Badnik everyone loves to hate. Slicer can fire off its arms at our blue hero, making it a formidable foe that will require a lot of practice to defeat unscathed. Timing is key, so don’t hesitate for a second if one of these robots spots you!
Trivia
- In Sonic Advance 3, there is a similar mantis-like enemy called Kamaki in Cyber Track, which uses the same attack method as Slicer.
