Popular Unite leaker, @ElChicoEevee, has shared unconfirmed details about these new items. Based on the leak, both items will be available for purchase in the shop for 2,000 Aeos Coins or 1,250 Aeos Tickets each. This leaked pricing aligns with previously introduced Held Items, such as Curse Bangle and Curse Incense.

These items reportedly stack up to 10 times. Knocking out an opponent grants two stacks, while assisting in a knockout provides one stack. The stacks do not appear to reset upon being knocked out.
