So here we see that the Paintbrush is being added tomorrow. Its sub-weapon will be the Sprinkler while the super will be the infamous Inkstrike!

It appears to be a weaker, but faster roller class weapon with a good range of attack on the horizon of the player.

Are you excited to try it out?
What are your thoughts?

Well... that was fast. I'm not complaining though.

TBH, I wish less things had Inkstrike. I mean it's my favourite to use but I sort of wish that there would be more supportive specials around. I guess that makes me hypocritical, but damn there's going to be a million Inkstrikes between the Aerospray, this and the less common Splattershot Pro.

First I thought we were getting it all at once in August, then I'd heard it'd be once a week, now you're telling me we're getting two updates a week? Wow.

Also, just checking, is Tornado really the Japanese name for Inkstrike? I would've guessed that was Inkzooka.

Don't forget us .52 Decos!

Well before final product, the Inkstrike was referred to as the "Ink Tornado", so I figured the literal translation of tornado would be referring to what we know as the Inkstrike.

Now I can pretend to be Bowser Junior.


Fun stuff.

 

[Crucifigo]

YES YES YES GIVE ME MY PAINTBRUSH SO I CAN PAINT OVER MY ENEMIES

i'm super glad it's out already, i've been excited to try it

 

[SquiddiamFancyson]

This makes me hopeful we'll get the N-Zap '89 soon too! I hope the updates continue at this pace.

 

[suavevillain]

Yeah i'm gonna give a shot.

 

[ArcticWolf]

Didn't expect it to be this soon. But hey, I'm not complaining.

 

[Geistbox]

As a roller it looks much more optimal for ramps. Might finally have an excuse to use a roller on Blackbelly.

Now I can pretend to be Bowser Junior.

Exactly what I had in mind

 

[xTaco]

Inkstrike is verygood for capturing zones and neutralizing. Not much for kills

 

[OmegaDivider]

I'll try it, why not. If its faster than a roller then it may actually be fun to use.

 

[Terabyte]

Looking forward to trying it out! Looks like a pretty nice weapon.

 

[RespawningJesus]

Not gonna use the paintbrush right away, since I know EVERYONE is going to be using this weapon. I'll use it when the hype dies down a little bit for the weapon.

 

[Litagano Motscoud]

That's great!

I just hope they release some more new maps soon.

I am used to convert eastern time to japanese time but the opposite is a bit rusty... isn't that 10 PM EST... today?
So technically we'd get it just in time for the weekend? Sweet!
I love how Nintendo provides a constant stream of content so far. A good incentive to keep playing.
