The Supersaw is a melee weapon for the Doctor. It is a saw with an inserted syringe.
Upon a successful hit on an enemy player, it will increase the SuperCharge meter by 20%. This helps getting the next SuperCharge a whole lot quicker by using it in combat, at the cost of 40% slower swing speed, forcing the user to be more precise with its swings in order to deal damage. This weapon will not get the SuperCharge on hit if the player using is currently SuperCharged.
If the user prefers a more aggressive playstyle, this weapon can serve very well for when the healing target dies to one-on-one fights, leaving the user to finish the job and get rewarded in the process, plus it can also be used to gain SuperCharge significantly faster and pop them constantly, crippling the enemy defenses.

Tips
- This is great for getting charges faster, but the player needs to swing accurately because of the 40% slower firing speed.

Trivia
- This weapon was previously known as SuperChargeSaw in Pre-Rehaul.
- This weapon was infamous for a "combo" that could be performed using this and a fully-charged Rejuvenator.
- While the Rejuvenator was Supercharged, the Doctor could hit an enemy to extend the duration of the Supercharge, switch to the Rejuvenator to almost instantly heal off any damage they would do and then some, and then switch back to the Supersaw just in time to hit them again. This essentially created a Doctor that couldn't die and could tear through any team given they had someone within melee range.
- This trick was eventually removed in the Typical Horrors update.
- On April 8, 2022, the Dentist's Delight was given a damage decrease downside of 25%, however, an issue applied it to the Supersaw as well. It was fixed 6 days later.
- The 2018 model was actually created back in 2014, which can be viewed here.
- The 2016 model was taken from a Team Fortress 2 custom weapon called The Highlander.
Bugs
- The taunt does not play any violin tune simultaneously.
- The Supersaw is not properly held during the taunt animation.
