The '''Yarn Whip''' is [[Kirby]] and [[Prince Fluff]]'s primary method of attacking in ''[[Kirby's Epic Yarn]]'' and ''[[Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn]]''. When the player presses 1 on the Wii Remote (and is not also holding down on the D-pad) or the B button on the 3DS, Kirby or Fluff will toss the whip out for a distance roughly two Kirbys away. This can be done in any of the cardinal directions except those aiming downward or diagonally downward (unless used underwater, where it can be thrown in all eight directions). When not holding a direction, they will throw the whip straight forward. Many things can be grabbed by the whip, including most enemies, Yarn Blocks, tabs on treasure chests and other background objects, zippers, and buttons. Certain enemies which wield weapons can also have it stolen using the whip. | The '''Yarn Whip''' is [[Kirby]] and [[Prince Fluff]]'s primary method of attacking in ''[[Kirby's Epic Yarn]]'' and ''[[Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn]]''.

Once Kirby or Fluff grab onto an enemy, their weapon, or a block, they can do one of two things. If the player releases 1 early, the whip will '''Unravel''' that object, thus defeating the enemy or destroying the object right away (though this method yields no [[bead]]s).

If the player releases 1 early, the whip will '''Unravel''' that object, thus defeating the enemy or destroying the object right away (though this method yields no [[bead]]s). If on the other hand the 1 button is held, Kirby or Fluff will transform briefly into a [[Top (Yarn transformation)|Top]] and spin the enemy/object into a [[yarn ball]]. From here, the ball can be tossed at another enemy or object to provide a generally more effective means of attack which can also cause extra beads to be dropped when defeating foes. Some objects when rolled up will have a special property when thrown. An example is when Kirby grabs a weapon, it will transform into an arrow which, when thrown, passes through enemies and objects. Another example is the [[Buttonbee]] which, when rolled up, forms into a winged ball that splits into three when thrown and homes in on targets. | ||
