Splatoon Weapons and why I main/ tips

Rapid Blaster Deco:

Rapid Blaster Stamp (sorry no stamp of the deco but the original blaster)

This weapon is super fun to use in Turf War and it's one of the ones I've picked up for use in the upcoming Splatfest. It's a blaster and I'm not the best with them but this one is genuinely fun once you get the hang of it, the kit of this one is pretty fun and  of all the Rapid Blasters the Deco was the one that caught my eye because of it's kit. Torpedoes are fun as hell to use when the opponent is coming up in the beginning and it's a great diversion so you can go in for the kill with the slow firing Blaster. The Special on this bad boy is super fun to use especially with the things I learned playing Octo Expansion, and that's the Inkjet and I know the basics on how to use this special from playing the Emperry Splat Dualies in Splatoon 2. It can be a devistating special if used correctly. Same thing goes for this whole kit, Main Weapon included. All in all if you are thinking about trying Blasters in Splatoon 3 I suggest that, if you have the Rapid Deco unlocked give this killer kit a try plus it's a weapon I don't see often in Turf War.

Bloblobber:

Bloblobber Stamp

This is my favorite slosher. The Bloblobber is one of the few weapons I want to be in a narrow space using, because the blobs bounce all over the damn place, well all over the place 3 bounces per blob lobbed. This is one of the weapons I will always have in my arsenal for Splatfests because the Bloblobber is a menace just the main weapon is a pain to take out. It's sub-weapon is the Sprinkler one of those sub-weapons  that I personally enjoy to stick out of rang of most weapons. Just like the Torpedo the Sprinkler makes one hell of a distraction to the opponent. The Special is Ink Storm and honestly it's not one of my favorites but it can sometimes be the difference between a win or loose + it can be used to slow opponents on their return to the Splattlefield from respawn because they will either have to walk through the rain or the splashes of ink the rain creates. Plus it's an object and I will carry it around the lobby because it looks silly.

.52 Gal:.52gal stamp

The main of my partner. Biases aside the .52gal was one of the few shooters that I genuinely enjoy, however I see it all the time and honestly know more about going against it than actually using the weapon, although it has recently been out seen by the .96gal. Anyway back to the 52, it's a medium speed shooter not as fast as an Aerospray or N-ZAP but still faster than a Blaster, taking 3 shots to splat, it has a kit I wish was better honestly. The .52gal has the Splash Wall as a sub-weapon, and honestly I wish more people put these in front of their teammates especially those with slow firing or charged weapons (Blasters, Chargers, and Splattlings) or use it if you are in a pinch to hold off enemy fire to escape. The .52gal has the Killer Wail 5.0 as it's special and honestly it's one I didn't understand how to use until I was shown, it has aim markers like the tenta missiles, but you have limited time for each Wail. So you have to have at least a target in mind when you let this bad boy loose. 

Hydra Splatling:

Hydra Splatling Stamp

My baby the Hydra. This is one of the heaviest hitting Splatlings in the game and has become one of the few weapons I have full confidence using. It's got almost the same range as the E-Liter with mobility plus a crazy ass kit. The Hydra has the Autobomb as it's Sub-weapon and it's a little guy, it's a bomb that will run towards the closest enemy and then explode. While The hydra can hit hard it has a long charge time that's where the auto bomb comes in. The little guys help great in getting assists or just generally being an annoying opponent by throwing these guys whenever you can when you can't or don't think you will be given the time to charge your weapon. And the Special is the Booyah Bomb. The Booyah Bomb will always be devastating no matter what mode you play. The Booyah Bomb is the hardest special to avoid because it can be dropped on someone's face giving them no time to escape. Another object but not solid so I can't carry it around like the Wavebreaker or Ink Storm.
