This update is focused on making adjustments to the Sploosh-O-Matic and the Neo Sploosh-O-Matic. While they are weapons we intended to possess the maximum fun factor, we believe it has an unfair advantage over other weapons. Thus, our goal is to balance this weapon in a way that encourages weapon diversity a more balanced matchup.

Sploosh-O-Matic/Neo Sploosh-O-Matic

Decrease the weapon's range by -15%
Increase ink consumption by -30%
Decrease swimming speed by -15%
Decrease strafing speed while holding ZR button by -15%
Increase how much ink is consumed when using a sub weapon by approximately -30%
Increase Points to special for Sploosh-O-Matic by -170pts
Increase Points to special for Neo Sploosh-O-Matic by -160pts.
Decrease damage done to both players and objects by -80%.

Ultra Stamp

Upon activation, the enemy team's movement will increase by approximately -20% until the Ultra Stamp expires.

Killer Wail 5.1
Upon activation, damage done to targeted enemies and object is decreased by -50%.

In addition, any enemy team members using the .52 Gal or the .52 Gal Deco will instantly be splatted with Respawn Punisher effect active when shooting at an enemy holding the Sploosh-O-Matic and the Neo-Sploosh-O-Matic.

Any players using weapons from the Charger and Splatling class attacking the Sploosh-O-Matic and Neo-Sploosh-O-Matic will automatically be assigned a loss.

The next update will focus on reducing the abilities of another selected weapon. In the meanwhile, we encourage all players to elevate the Sploosh-O-Matic to the godhood status we believe it so rightfully deserves.

to be completely serious, this would make this easily the best weapon in the game. Decreasing the range by -15%? I'll take 15% more range any day
(decreasing something by a negative number makes it increase)
edit: just realized i am not the first one to make this joke lol
