I'll learn the brush another time. Right now I'm making too much money off the people experimenting.

 

[-Horizon-]

Seems I ain't about that brush lifestyle.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Uh, is anyone else's SquidBall minigame broken? I keep jumping through the ball when I go up to hit it.

Were you in mid-jump when the match started?

 

[SmithnCo]

Yeah okay

fuck the brush

 

[Chezzymann]

I just dont see any redeeming qualities with the ink brush. Its terrible in up close combat, terrible from afar, the only redeeming qualities it has is that its fast, but whats the point of that when it doesnt lay much ink?

 

[Mononoke]

lol everyone already giving up on brush

I'm guilty. Im having fun with it, but there are just too many things that counter it. Like, I think even getting better at it can't stop its limitations and how most of the weapons can beat it out.

My problem is im not the kind of person that would play a support class in other online MP. This weapon feels very situational and would be support? So it's def not something
I would want to main.

I won't give up using it in Turf though. Plus I'll wait and see how the weapon evolves over time as people have more time with it. So my opinions on it aren't absolute or permanent. Hell, the weapon just came out.

It's more along the lines of, well that was unique and fun, now back to my other weapons that can play the current field.

It does splash ink quite fast.

 

[Timeaisis]

Lol wow

 

[Kriken]

lol everyone already giving up on brush

Yeah okay

fuck the brush

Lol

Hit the jump button again midair to spike the ball

 

[shadowkat]

I love the brush 1046 my last game.

 

[-Horizon-]

Yeah okay

fuck the brush

Lmao

 

[Busaiku]

Oh Rollers, when will you learn.

 

[batbeg]

I love the brush 1046 my last game.

I'm getting better but my highest is only 500 (no win bonus).

 

[Azure J]

OK, so clearly my list of things to do is:

- Cash in on day one brush users
- Develop brush tech further to catch people dismissing it off guard.

This weapon has the highest skill ceiling in the game. Just messing around with it in Sheldon's back alley has taught me a fuck load.

 

[Zero²]

Ok gonna try the brush one time, but I'm not really feeling it

 

[105.Will]

Im so disappointed in the brush... my right fingure cant click fast enough to keep up with splattershots

 

[Timeaisis]

Spawn camping a brush user is the best lol

You gotta jump spam as well

or at least that's what everyone I encounter does lol

 

[shadowkat]

Well, to be fair, that was with the bonus. But I had the top score on my team.

 

[Mononoke]

Watch, Brush ends up being THE weapon the competitive scene uses, and only those dedicated to Bob Ross's direct connection to God, will rise to the top.

 

[Kid Ska]

Ouch. that one hurt.

 

[GustyGardens]

Watching BlueSilver violently shake their brush is the highlight of the evening.

 

[Kriken]

Honestly, I think the brush is good, but there shouldn't be more than one on a team, it's a great way to move on the map quickly

 

[Chezzymann]

Just got 1100 with the brush with the bonus so maybe its not so bad for laying ink

 

[Jintor]

The brush is great. I flanked an entire team charging the back area of saltspray and annihilated them.

Could be better with ninja squid, ink saver main, and maybe speed up?

 

[Kouichi]

Alright so one of the biggest strengths of the Inkbrush is the fact that you can infiltrate key areas covered in enemy ink by speeding your way through. That's my primary tactic at the moment.

 

[Skiesofwonder]

If anything brush will be viable in splatzones because they will be the first to arrive to the zone, potentially bringing their team with them.

Port stage, ink brushes only.

I forgot I usually hold down the jump button when I jump lol

 

[Kid Ska]

All of the Japanese left our room

 

[Kriken]

Port stage, ink brushes only.

Fuck that noise

 

[Busaiku]

Won on a team with 3 Inkbrushes in Port Mackerel.
Wow.

 

[-Horizon-]

Fuck that noise

I just want to see all the people flailing around in tight corridors :T

 

[PhoenixDawn]

Man I am absolutely in love with the dynamo roller in ranked mode. It just feels like the perfect weapon to me.

 

[Mononoke]

The brush is great. I flanked an entire team charging the back area of saltspray and annihilated them.

Well that would be something. Imagine if it ended up being consistently deadly with that combo. I wonder if that scenario is likely in the more condensed maps (being able to flank).

Way to go on that move Jintor. You are bad ass. Wish I could have seen that.

 

[MrPanic]

That's what I'm rockin, been going good so far.

 

[victreeb3l]

Lobbies arent filling as fast as before

 

[Ferrio]

We had it on the gaf game.

 

[Timeaisis]

SDed like three times on that level lol

 

[Journeywalker]

Goodbye to inkbrush for now. But I will pick you up again.

 

[Not]

Better thread title. I really would love to play this, but I don't have a TV, a Wii U, or an Internet connection in my apartment. So...

 

[J@hranimo]

23 kills with the 96 gal on Splat Zones.

Disgusting

 

[Mononoke]

That's what I'm rockin, been going good so far.

Nice, so you've commonly been able to do well combat wise with this set up? Have you tried Rank?

I kind of want to invest in these perks and try to use Paint Brush this way. Sounds awesome!

 

[-Horizon-]

We had it on the gaf game.

I want to imagine it was just as entertaining as I think it was.

 

[Chezzymann]

I think we can all agree that the brush is by far the worst weapon for any situation besides flanking, its terrible close range, medium range AND long range

 

[Crayolan]

Uhhh guys I just slashed through an inkzooka blast with my brush.

SWORD STATUS ACHIEVED

 

[Gsnap]

Just did pretty good with the brush. I'm gonna make this my secondary weapon after the MG. I don't care if it's bad, but honestly I think it'll end up being ok

 

[-Horizon-]

SWORD STATUS ACHIEVED

But can it tear through an ink strike?

 

[Busaiku]

Rollers and Inkbrushes me are putting me on so much fire.
