Heavy is the new worst splatling and stamper is still better bc burst. Wiper is still stupid fast tho.

Noticing a trend here: 1) The Splat weapons definitely became more viable jack of all trades 2) Every "bad" weapon is generally just awkward, not overtly awful 3) "We gave it Autobomb to gimp the kit's syngery" is the new "we gave it Tenta Missiles to gimp the kit's synergy", probably

One of my “main” weapons in Splatoon 2 was the Undercover Sorella Brella. So seeing what happened with the entire class of weapons in 3 makes me incredibly sad. I’m REALLY hoping they fix the glitches with them and that future kits will make up for the Brella’s renditions in Splatoon 3.

[@CoolMintMC]

I used it for a while, then realized I HEAVILY preferred the Kensa Undercover Brella & literally never played using anything else. Although as much as it can be weird to use, I like the kit the base Undercover has in 3 because Reefslider is SUPER FUN. I even got a quad-kill with it before! I really am hoping for new Undercover Brella kits sometime soon though. Can't wait to see what they come up with.

Indeed. In one of my more recent turf wars, we got suppressed into oblivion by a single E-liter on the enemy team

[@ultravoiid]

tbf, im a bit late to this. i do want to say though, that i really love e-liter. i started off maining splat roller and after that aerospray mc, thinking i was just bad with snipers, but my god, e-liter is so fun. i watched my sibling in some of its games (its an e-liter main) and it completely DESTROYED the enemy team. gave me motivation to try it again, haha ^^ now after practicing a while with e-liter, i normally get quite some kills, which is surprising to say the least

[@radaf4429]

Bro in splat 1 I distinctly remember that whenever Moray Towers was in rotation there would be 3 e-liters per team at times

[@silverstar3844]

As an Undervover brella main, yes. But it’s ability to ink turf EXTREMELY evenly and well (beating out the aerospray) is just awesome. It’s mines are not the best but are still good for giving chip damage and preventing flanks. Behind enemy turf you can be stubborn as a damn termite with well placed and well timed mines and sliders. But still, yes. Honestly being aware of the under covers weaknesses just makes me love it more, they say the best don’t fear second best, they fear the worst. Undercover, bamboozker, clash, and aersospray is a devastating team comp. Goddamn team of stubborn termites with a chip on their shoulder, everything to prove, with nothing to lose.

[@CoolMintMC]

I fell in love with the Undercover Brella n Splatoon 2 for its amazing painting ability like you said. (Although it was the Sorella for a bit, & then I exclusively used Kensa as my permanent main. I actually never did get the OG) I unironically really do not enjoy how the Splat Brella & Tenta Brella shoot, so the Undercover Brella was PERFECT for me.

[@gametugboat3985]

main here too. ive found that it is the perfect weapon to just annoy and destract the enemy. the amount of times ive won by just being annoying is amazing

[@williamallcorn1605]

Late on this, but also an Undercover Brella main here since I got to start playing in Splatty 2. Undercover Brella was literally the first weapon I bought in Splatty 3 with my gold license, and while I was dominating earlier on as I've ranked up and face more competent people I've fell off hard with it. Sloshers are my enemy and the glitched wall-piercing with Sloshing Machine ruins me. The worst part is, the other weapons I mained in Splatty 2 were also the Aerospray and Clash Blaster! So I'm pretty screwed all around. I'm still winning games, and I still turf really well and can punish rollers especially with an Ink Mine, roll block, and shot to the face, but as I fight people who know how to be mobile I'm dashed to pieces.

[@The-dankster]

Undercover Brellas are simply superior, just with the shield was a little bit wider. I used one of my gold Sheldon licences on it, was told it was the worst weapon in the game, then got a 5 win streak with it and fell in love. It's that, the Stamper Splatana, and the REEF-Lux, my perfect trio

[@Josh_Herman]

Undercover umbrella main here… We are a small but golden group we must stick together… lol

[@Cancan86975]

As a Bamboozler main when damage up didn't exist in 2, I'm really glad that damage up was removed to improve the game health, but autobomb really brings down the kit. My ideal kit for a future Bamboozler would be fizzy bomb for chip damage, and wave breaker to reveal locations and for the chip damage it provides for one shots. Although knowing my luck, we'll get something like ink mine and zip caster.

[@ancientautumn9987]

I just wish you could choose your sub and special. Almost every weapon would become viable but some would definitely be very broken.

[@kalkomandr4491]

it’s quite frankly absurd that nautilus as a main weapon carries it’s kit so hard that even while having point sensor it’s more effective than a mini with burst bomb

[@Gardivanyth]

Nautilus is cracked. As much as I'd adore a Nautilus kit with Burst Bombs or something, it's probably for the best that it's stuck with Point Sensor. The special is complete garbage for it though, almost zero synergy with the rest of the kit. I could see a Nautilus kit with Tacticooler getting a lot of use. Its only real flaw compared to the Heavy Splatling, kit aside, is its abysmal strafing speed. Buffing that on top of improved mobility and faster respawns enables it to be way more aggressive. And for a sub weapon, it would work REALLY well with Curling Bombs, assuming Burst Bombs are too overpowered with it. Splash Wall might also be nice, although I think Curling Bombs win out overall because of the Nautilus's focus on choosing whether it wants to be a frontliner or a backliner at any given moment.

As an Inkbrush main for life at this point, it feels so good that the kit synergizes this well. I feel the Killer Wail's biggest strength is the ability to give yourself back up for a fight.

The funny part about the Ink Brush for me is that I have never used Ink Brush in ranked/anarchy battles before Splatoon 3 as I only used it in turf wars in earlier games.

As a stubborn Carbon Roller main coming from 2 to 3... I have to agree with its place. Autobomb is surprisingly more useful than I thought and Zipcaster is really fun on the right map and circumstance, but the lack of Burst Bomb hurts more than I could have ever known. I still use it the most out of habit (at least Ninja Squid is still good lol), but I'm praying on the Deco to save me like it did in 2.

[@Dj.D25]

I am also hoping for a burst bomb too on the deco version in the future. Carbon Roller was my favorite Roller in Splatoon. The Carbon Roller Deco in Splatoon 2 I was worried it wouldn't have burst bombs but it felt harder to use and get kills with. Splatoon 3's Carbon Roller feels like you don't have to be as close as in Splatoon 2, but I still prefer burst bombs for easier kills.

[@SonicVK]

I love the Carbon roller. However I am a auto bomb appreciator, so I like how the carbon kept its auto bombs. Idk why people say it lost burst when it never had it. For all those burst people you'll have to wait for when they add back the deco

I've been playing Beakon Dapples since Splat 2 and it feels like a kit that relies on its teammates a ton. It's a hyper aggro weapon with its low range and quick rolls but also has a support kit with beakons and Tacticooler. With that combo it feels like you snowball well; you never truly loose mid if you're consistently able to jump back in when you lose one or two without worrying about jumping right into a fight. And Tacticooler means teammates come back even faster to jump to your beakons. I feel like the design is that you don't want to move in unless your team is already up but they almost always *are* if you've got good beakon placement and Tacticooler uptime. You can even run a little Sub Power to make their jumps faster. Is it a great kit for such a short range weapon to get in? No, not at all. And I think it super struggles especially on its own. But I think it can work in the right scenarios. Maybe not in a competitive team setting without really working around it but it's got an interesting playstyle if used well.

Undercover Brella main here, and I'll forever be mad about the treatment it got out the gate. We nailed it with the Kensa Variant, they could have just kept it almost the exact same with the vanilla for 3, albeit swapping Armor for Crab Tank, or any other defensive special, even the Reefslider as is lets it be a fine disrupter and allows you to become the center of attention for a while so your team can push an objective. But no, they opted to KEEP the mine, so when it HAS to use the Reef Slider to get away or further in to try and make some kind of play, it has nothing to work with after the facts other than it's shield (which was probably spent getting into Sliding position anyways, in which it can only come back into discussion if the slide kills someone who walked into it) and it's piddly paddly pitter patter damage stats. If they really want this to be a slayer weapon and not a lightweight tank (which it really should obviously just be the latter), then I hope we either get some number buffs that can allow that to happen, or we just get a weapon kit on a different variant that just flat out compliments a slaying playstyle more than 'Slide, Stride, Die'. At least then the balance teams can accurately determine what they want to do with this weapon. Assuming they don't want to do what made the weapon good on it's closing voyage by actually keeping it as the lightweight tank it clearly can excel at being. Oh well, at least they absolutely killed it with the Sloshing Machine on the first outing this time around.

I agree 100% I played KUnder and I loved it but now I can't even use undercover cuz of it's horrible kit

I think they just really love the idea of all base Undercover kits having Mine because it's "sneaky". I'm really not sure any more thought went into it than that, or at the very least they're insistent on the "sneaky" theme to the weapon's detriment.

[@CheerfulMiniatreSapling]

@@alexanderkosten7611 I would be absolutely fine with that theming gimmick for the vanilla variant if there were any specials that allowed you to conform to such a theme and/or playstyle (like if it were to, say, have a backstab mechanic which rewards you for good flanks and outplays by dealing more damage to the backs of enemies just to name an example), but stuff like the Reefslider and Splashdown (Two VERY hard to justify specials put onto the UCB) go actively against this with their loud, flashy, defenseless activations DEMANDING that you be the center of attention. At the very least you have to somewhat keep your eyes peeled and ears ready for a good flanking Zipcaster. And even something like the Wave Breaker then would be a better idea for the theme because it stops you from being the center of attention for just long enough to possibly take someone down. My bottom line I guess is that Splatoon's a loud as hell game and designing a shotgun weapon around stealth that barely exists to begin with is just the worst, and it makes me sad.

[@Lolcatzz43]

I used to despise using Splatlings when I started out in 2, especially the hydra. I was more interested in offence than defence so the slow mobility instantly made me dislike it, and the kits on both the normal and custom hydra didn’t make me want to use them at all. However I tried using hydra in 3 for a change since I wasn’t really feeling any of the other weapons that were available to me and it basically became my new main overnight. Instead of averaging out to 2-3 kills per match I’m averaging out to 8-9 which is such a big improvement for someone who’s wanting to try and get into competitive play. I would prefer if the hydra had a different sub than autobomb but other than that I just adore this weapon so much

[@neonskylite2242]

To me, the Roller is the gold standard of weapon design, it is very self sufficient, the Curling bomb can help but the Vertical Swing can work just fine, as it paints your feet. It has fair range too and has good fall off damage too. On top of this, it has 3 options, Rolling, Horizontal Swing and Vertical Swing, making it very adaptable. Don't even get me started on the hitboxes.

[@kittycat4378]

@Skibbity Bop Rolling over 3 people at once is absolutely satisfying.

[@TGCPhilip]

@Skibbity Bop I'd say kills aren't satisfying with the Tri Slosher, The amount of enjoyment I get from the Roller is on par with the Charger, you'd be surprised what types of kills you can get with the Roller, the sound of sniping is one thing, but killing someone directly under you or getting a collateral with a Vertical Swing is another. Best part? They can happen right after each other. The Roller doesn't require much skill, I will admit that, but I think that it really benefits from a skilled player, the main attraction is the fact that it one shots, so if someone can aim well enough and is decisive enough, they can do pretty well. I will not deny that stands for most other weapons but the Roller, even if it has a low skill ceiling, isn't as annoying as say a Clash or Blob. It also served as a pathway to other one shot weapons for me, such as Charger or Blaster.

Gotta say, I don't know at all how to play the splatanas. Neither of them seem all that strong to me, though I can see why the stamper has potential with burst bombs. My experience is that it was far easier to use wiper and get things done thanks to its faster uncharged attacks. And I personally just don't like the special on either weapon. Zip caster would feel better on wiper imo since you could focus on uncharged attacks which are just too slow on the stamper.

For me I think Stamper and Wiper are actually about even: Stamper is, relatively, more team-reliant, being better at killing with the help of your team getting the last 30 damage after you get the chip off, especially with being pretty slow in attack rate for a Frontliner. Wiper is better for lower tier play since a lot of people are stupid and won't exploit your chip damage, so Wiper becomes a much better option when you have to do the killing yourself in my eyes. Also for me it feels like you never get to use the 1 shot that the stamper has since, if you're in range, by the time you're charged up your enemy will have killed you.

I feel the dapples' kit is very good for it. The beakon and tacticooler allow it to play much more aggressively than it ever could in 2, and also makes deaths much less punishing as it can pop cooler, respawn in one second, and jump back in - being back on the field in only a few seconds is massive for such an aggressive slayer dualie weapon. it's the only cooler weapon that can play cooler selfishly while still benefitting its team. it doesnt need a bomb in my opinion (while a bomb would be nice, its not necessary) - the main weapon paints honestly fine, and can move fine enough that a bomb isnt necessary and it controls space well because of these two factors. it can already threaten a kill super efficiently too, which is another thing some weapons need bombs for. over all i think its kit supports a very aggressive yet fun to play with/against playstyle and 180p cooler is very nice I'd have put dark tetras as the worst dualies in splatoon 3, since while they have higher mobility by a little, their accuracy is the lowest in their class, and they're incredibly easy to punish since after dodgerolls and reefslider they're incredibly vulnerable for a long time. the autobombs also dont do enough for them i feel, since they lack the killing power of dapples (they dont kill anywhere near as quickly or efficiently in my experience). theyre really just the most punishable dualie weapon in the game, and need a special and sub that dont suffer from the same problems the main weapon does. it almost feels like they have two modes of play: a short highly mobile burst with dodgerolling or reefsliding, then a free punishing period i say all of this as a charger main, so even if i've mained dapples and tetras in 2 before maybe take it with a grain of salt, but i think its worth at least comparing dapples and dark tetras
