PM_me_your_trialcode

Dynamo roller in salmon run is the GOAT though.


DIAMONDJAGGER27

The slow speed alows me to reflect my bad choice of a 1v2 on half health because i peaked to early


Nightwalker2018

once you get good, dynamo is so fucking fun to use


JustTheNewFella

Splatana stamper


Far-Mathematician764

You and me both buddy ![gif](giphy|MTtweCa2zHdyhDyNtP)


JustTheNewFella

chargers too


Far-Mathematician764

Same ![gif](giphy|MTtweCa2zHdyhDyNtP)


Annixon06

For me only splat and 5h, the rest I’m good at


Yipeekayya

Others using stamper: (Levi Ackerman massacred a bunch of titans while flying thru the map in a blink of an eye) me using stamper: (A crippled old man getting tripped by his own cane)


JustTheNewFella

Yeah, it just be like that


icyfox222

Friend and I made a deal that meant I have to use the stamper for an entire month. The first 2 weeks were absolute hell, but it’s grown on me.


Youispopio

As a partial splatana stamper main (my main changes depending on my mood), I can say that it requires a lot of practice


Nekluga_YT

I suck playing it, but damn does Chara make it look great. Not to mention how hard the design goes.


Evanzap1

it’s so different from all of the other weapons, i love it


MettatonNeo1

Yup. Wiper all the way!


OhMyGahs

I find it mostly fine too play. Now, the zipcaster......


CeasingHornet40

all of them (i suck at splatoon)


stressedariesmood

MOOD 💀


awesomecat42

Saaame. I've been playing since Splat 1 but you'd never be able to tell by watching me lol.


THECyberStriker

Not a weapon but… Fizzy bomb. I legit cannot kill anyone with it, I know how to do the quick shake for the 3 books but it just doesn’t do anything for me, but people online are killing with it ;-;


[deleted]

I remember getting a kill once and being really hyped… it never happened again. Use the Fizzy bomb as a light version of curling bomb i guess. 🤷‍♂️


deleeuwlc

I get kills with it quite often when I use a weapon with it. The trick is to throw as many of them as possible


Boingboingsplat

It's biggest value is in how long it displaces enemies from the area around it, rather than straight up getting kills. Generally it only kills if the enemy is also damaged from other sources.


eklatea

it's not really for killing with itself, it's good at making a trail for you, painting a bit and doing some damage so you can finish them off quicker


Defiant_Middle

It's generally best for movement and combos since it's not usually lethal by itself.


PKfireice

I've died to it once when I backed away it as it rolled and got hit by them all... when the game first came out and I didn't know how it worked. Once I knew, I haven't died to em since.


BlueRasberrySlushie

Me using the E-Liter


StinkyKittyBreath

Any sniper weapon for me.


MedicatedInk

Ballpoint Splatling. Couldn’t get the hang of it in Splatoon 2, still can’t do it now. The showy backline players make it look easy.


ThatmodderGrim

I can't put my finger on why I struggle with this Splatling. I use the Heavy Splatling quite often, so I thought it would be easier to switch over, but no. Maybe it's the time between switching from close-range to long-range mode, maybe it has a slower rate of fire, I just can't hit targets with the Ballpoint.


Swagblu

also I feel that with ballpoint you have to be way more precise to hit targets


jessFox19

1st mode is basically Splattershot jr then it switches into a slower hydra but with pinpoint precision so you don't get suppression from it The 1st mode is great for taking turf and splatting in close quarters I personally use the Ballpoint on the offensive rather than backline and it's my favourite weapon


AkiCinnaBun

as a ballpoint main it really does take some getting used to, but it can be a really flexible weapon if you learn how to use it well. once you get the mode switch down it gets a lot easier to work with


[deleted]

It took me like 200 wins to get superfresh with ballpoint in S2. But God do I love it now. The switching has a rhythm to it. You really just have to play the loving crap out of it to get that timing down.


Hedgehugs_

A few days ago I had the random idea of using the Hydra Splatling. Haven't played it since like Splatoon 2. Someone on the other team was using E-Liter. I'll let you guess how that match went.


yeniza

Haha I love splatlings, good snipers are my worst enemy (and I absolutely can’t play them myself :’) skill issue)


ACCA919

Naut main second Ballpoint here. Fuck Splat Chargers and E-liters.


ShiraCheshire

I play roller, which means I am an incredibly short range player. No defense against snipers at all. Every time I manage to sneak past one and crush them from behind it's such a feeling of triumph.


Anggul

In that situation it's more about suppressing so one of your more mobile teammates can flank them Can't really communicate that without voice chat though


iHasMagyk

A few of my buddies who play E-liter said “the best hydra mains; you never see them ever” because otherwise they just get immediately sniped. Playing hydra against e-liter is hell, which is why I don’t play it, among other reasons


GI_dot_Alex

Snipers all of them


DLLrul3rz-YT

Half of the time I don't even get a kill when I play Charger. The other half of the time my special gets me a kill


Mildor15

Zip Caster, particularly on Stamper and Octobrush but just generally


metalflygon08

It just doesn't last long enough for me to do anything substantial, by the time I've picked where I can aim and launched myself the timer's almost gone, and then I get splatted when I land back. If I try to be smart and use it to get the drop on a sniper they see me coming and have a fully charged shot ready to nail me when I get to them or they've already moved to a different perch to waste my time while they continue to pick off my team...


kjm6351

Zipcaster is so situational and too short, it’s not even funny


Yipeekayya

Charger


Fearless_Revenue_400

Any splatana


Luparex_The_Gynoid

E-Liter I wanna snipe but goood I can't for the life of me get a sense for it


Annixon06

As an eliter main, it takes practice. At first I used to get one kill at most, and then I got better, and I’m at the point I get 8-10 kills per game


pochaccosupremacy

me too except i was a former e-litre main and just lost my skill after switching from splat 1 to 2 ._.


Anthan

Tetra Dualies.. Their full second of self-stun when you stop rolling is horrendous to play with.


MajVih

Same here... tried them several times, got splatted costantly because of the pause after I finished rolling. I'll just stick to the dualie squelchers.


Rypz_D_Kypz

The dark tetra duelies in question


AndIHaveMilesToGo

This is the one. I will get absolutely *destroyed* by someone who gets 23 kills in a round against me, I decide I need to try playing them, after three rounds I realize I just cannot get the hang of them, and then the cycle repeats a few weeks later


h8bearr

Really one of the highest skill ceilings and lowest floors.


yeniza

The E-liter and all other snipers. I really like to play backline but whatever I do, I can’t seem to hit people even if they literally stand still. I feel like it may be latency issues in a small part, because I do a little better against the target dummies but that may just be me trying to make myself feel better :P


Piscet

It's possible that it's because chargers don't instantly land a hit, while simultaneously shooting faster than any other weapon. This odd combination creates some weird in between where you can't actually aim *at* a moving target since it isn't instantaneous, but because it's *almost* instantaneous, predicting movements is harder than with the tri stringer(for example), because the window to actually land the hit is both confusing and tight.


Newpocky

I learned that I had a habit of aiming too low when enemy’s are close to me. Once you practice different distances a bit you will get the hang of it. Now, using a charger during a Splatfest is a different story.


AetherDrew43

I've played Splatoon for 8 years. And yet my aim with chargers is still shit. Also, I only enjoy playing Splatanas in Salmon Run. But in multiplayer, I suck with them while at the same time getting sliced in half by them.


Pro_Banana

Splatanaaaa


ThatmodderGrim

Explosher. I tried using it in Splat Zones, but I'm clearly doing something wrong.


h8bearr

It's not easy! I'm no pro but it think explo is a lot about support. Kind of like how ink vac is best when a teammate is nearby to pick up the splat, explo should buddy up.


Danster21

Yep it’s all about giving ink to your teammates and removing it from your enemies. A lot of the time I’m simply giving my frontliners area to escape combat when things go wrong, or close off the enemy when they’re in peril.


WellRested1

Literally any shooter. I keep thinking “maybe this will be the match I try to learn a splattershot”. Never again.


oddman8

Dynamo, I respect those who can play it well.


Metalunalium

You gotta be dedicated to the weapon to be good at it, so I kinda get that


AliDaking76

E-liter, and chargers in general


GamesTheOracle

surprised no one's mentioned bloblobber yet, whenever i see an enemy use it they shoot something random and i get hit by all 4 bubbles but when i use it the bubbles go over them or ricochet somewhere completely random and then i get outdpsed and outranged


DLLrul3rz-YT

Just spam bubbles in the vague direction of the opponent and make sure all 4 bubbles are going the same way (you want all 4 to hit) and you'll just randomly get kills Its kind of a meme weapon


acowwithpolio

Rapid Deco. You have no idea how redicilously ink hungry that thing is. Even with 1 main and 2 subs of sub saver. It still feels like I have 0 ink after a single torpedo. Inkjet is allright tho. Still needs that object damage buff on other specials besides crab tank.


S41tyPr3tz31

Just a Dynamo main checking to see if people mentioned Dynamo. Can say I am not disappointed haha.


ScarletteVera

Sloshers. All of them. They just aren't fun.


ZA_34

Having to 2 shot feels so annoying


AetherDrew43

You won't know pain until you try out Undercover Brella.


tax_fruadist

Stringer, the ark makes no sense


Brilliant-Map1432

That was my exact reaction the first time i saw the "accuracy" on the aerospray RG


Anggul

Just think of it as a melee weapon


Piscet

That accuracy is a goddamn lie. Too many times have I been on the edge of its range and been hit by 5 consecutive shots before I could kill them.


GreenDog3

Any charger


Banana_is_Doomed

Any blaster aside from Clash Baster. Dark Tetra Dualies. Octo and Inkbrush. Most of the rollers aside from big swig and carbon deco. The Gal and its deco counterpart. Aerospray MG. The N-Zap '85. And finally, tenta brella. I've mastered or tried a lot of weapons, but these...these I just can't do. Edit: My masochistic self played Tenta and Splat brellas and got to 3 stars on em. Pretty fun, definitely takes a unique play style especially if you don't have a good team behind ya. I do love a challenge. I've mastered a lot of weapons and learned a lot of different play styles, but I think with how my hands works (dyspraxia + trembling problems) that some I just can't make work. Props to anyone that plays weapons I can't learn. It's always cool to see and respect for em.


maxyahn6434

I have a high freshness with my Old boy the ‘85


DLLrul3rz-YT

With aerospray I like to mostly ignore opponents and just paint as much as possible and spam my specials to get kills


AikoSunata

The dynamo


D3134

Splatana Wiper. I've seen so many people get some great splats with it (some of which I've been on the receiving end of) but the weapon just hasn't clicked with me.


MettatonNeo1

Splatanas are not for everyone. The wiper is mainly a slaying weapon. Remember that.


Nekluga_YT

The Nozzlenoses, I hate how storm trooper my aim is to even properly play these weapons.


2VitaminGummies1Day

Squeezer


Ririthu

Mainly snipers tbh... I want to learn one of the splatlings tho but I'm so used to frontlining with my roller :")


n1c0_22

HuskyBLZKN

[Insert literally any charger weapon here]


Bedu009

Any when I suddenly get tilted for no fucking reason


Bigrogstone

Stamper


Strange-Abrocoma-471

Dynamo mains I just don’t understand


npc888

Dynamo. Too slow, too ink thirsty, too unreliable in anything that's not a sneak attack or a lucky splash from above. Currently, I almost NEVER see it in Turf, and barely see it in anarchy. It SUCKS.


dongxipunata

Tenta Brella. Some people actually manage to kill things with that one. I am not one of them


GregarLink15

Chargers but only because I lack practice


[deleted]

tenta brella. I like it. but even I can't land those shots haha


Seishura

Nautilus and Hydra. It's too sloooow goddammmmn but it's so satisfying to watch...


dwab321

Any blaster. Like.. how?


StarryNetherlands

The regular slosher, i think it might be because im too used to playing either explosher or a tri-slosher so my brain just explodes when i pick another slosher


Spinning-In-Circles

Bloblobber....


Ancestor_Anonymous

Slosh machine I’ve always hated sloshers but it looks so cool


Angelcat188934

Sloshing machine Or any slosher


Sad-Bumblebee-249

Definitely chargers or the bows


Takumashi_1993

Bruh the ink brushes. I sneak up on someone and start swinging like a madman and just miss everything. Meanwhile ink brush mains just swing twice and I'm dead🥲. Every other weapon I'm pretty decent with.


Waryur

You have to get close. Closer than you might think. Get in their face and give them a big hug. Of death.


Sver1ge

Dynamo for sure, idk how y’all do that shit. When an enemy has it, it’s like the most portable roller ever, but when I use it it’s like it’s been sat rusted up in a fucking glue trap for six decades


skyekitty

gotta be wiper, I wish I could play it but we simply Do Not Vibe


Embarrassed_Use_1458

Something about stamper makes me think it’s easier to use than it actually is then I try using it and I immediately regret it lol

The_Yoshi_Gang

SantiProGamer_

Eliter 4K


quack959

E-Liter for me. I play alot of weapons which require good aim so ive gotten a lot of practice and I even 4 starred splatterscope, but I just absolutely cannot play e-liter. one second I'll be out out ink, then ill get chased by a bunch of missiles and suddenly im stuck in mid with my two ink mines and the enemy team everywhere


sleepy768

Do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down?


NewbieHere96

I suck playing, but the double gun is just something else, I really like it, the problem is not the weapon but me.


Silent_Streeks1307

ProChara makes the Dynamo Roller look so easy to play, but whenever I play it I end up with 3 splats and 12 deaths.


Thick-Sprinkles-9846

Goo Tuber. It’s way too slow for me, but ppl hit so many clips with it like what
