Splatoon |OT| Squidstyler

How the hell does anyone even use the .96 Gal? Movement speed when shooting is atrocious, you can barely paint any territory with it and even in a 1v1 firefight I still die at the exact same time as I can kill anyone who is wielding the Splattershot Jr, Aerospray or N-Zapper. I don't get how everyone I come up against who uses this weapon kills me in 2 shots, yet it takes me 3-4 hits to do the same job.

It´s the best. Combined with the sprinkler i get over 1200 points most of the time. 2 Shots should be enough to kill everything on the map. Especially with damage up gear. Just keep a steady aim.
You have to use the incredible range of this baby.

Using the range is a serious problem on Saltspray Rig when you're having to spend all your time painting due to nobody else doing it. And yeah, I'm getting the sound effects that I'm hitting people but it's still 3-4 hits to kill them, yet the last match I was in I died in a single shot from it. Barely managing to pull above 500 points and 1 kill per match since I switched away from the N-Zapper.
 
It's annoying how subweapon centric the Octoling set is. I need to find something good to use with it.

I wish there was a charger with disruptor. Or that sprinklers were affected by range up.
 
Yay, bought this today, hoping to try it out over the weekend.

Also, rumor time. Anyone know if this is fake or not?

I'll be annoyed if we don't get that+Camp Triggerfish next. I mean, they ere the two most advertised non-base game things and we still don't have them. =/

Just noticed today that the inkbrush is even featured on the back of the North American DVD case.

How does it work? Like a really fast, narrow roller?

From the wiki (probably just quoting the guide if it's in there)
The Inkbrush is a Roller-type weapon. It comes in a set with the Sprinkler and the Inkstrike. It is similar in ability to the Ink Roller, but covers a smaller area at a much higher speed. It's shake time also seems to be low, fitting to the paintbrush theme. Much like the Ink Roller the Inkbrush can be used as a sort of melee weapon that splatters some ink in front of the Inkling.
 
When is the ink brush coming? Sounds really interesting. I would use that to focus on corners and edges during Turf War, which most players seem to forget about and can really add up to the total percentage if gone by unnoticed. I love the sprinkler sub weapon, and inkstrike is always useful. Really curious how good it is for killing, since it's obviously not good for ink coverage. Hmm.

I lucked out with my subrolls. Got Black Arrowband or something:

Tenacity
Special Duration Up
Special Charge Up
Special Saver

I love it! Totally touches on all areas of special gear abilities that I'm aware of. Got super lucky. Although I'm still not sure how Tenacity works. So if I have teammates that are dead and I'm outnumbered by the team's alive players, my gauge fills fully automatically or just steadily increases?

Does anyone know if the Game Mode in ranked play vs. regular battles will rotate? I'd love to see Turf War in ranked and not just be limited to Splat Zones. Similarly, I've love to play Splat Zones while not having to be stressed about a loss and decrease in rank. Any word on that?
 
Nope.

If there was one I would like a Charger with Kraken and Point Sensor.

I'll take a Silver Aerospray with Seekers and Inkstrike please. :D

Also I need the Inkbrush out now. I hope it lets me get all Mega Man Zero/Devil May Cry swordmaster style in here.
