Despite using the Inkbrush in Splatoon 1 almost exclusively I simply cannot make it work consistently in Splatoon 2. In my opinion it is even worse than the Carbon Roller Deco from the first game.
The Splashdown special is no Kraken substitute and makes no sense on the shortest ranged weapon in the game. The Kraken was a true panic button while the Splashdown is an easily escapable special especially when everyone will be moving backward instinctively against an Inkbrush to begin with.
The new dualie class and autobomb renders all my stealth skills useless since one can literally dodge roll out of the way on reaction and the other detects me even in squid form.
The Ink Resistance ability that the Inkbrush relies on is now a stackable instead of a powerful shoe exclusive.
The Joy-Con ZR button also seem much harder to mash compared to the Wii U gamepad, and I don't know whether it is better on the Pro Controller. I am very comfortable with separate Joy-Cons for every other weapon so it is kind of silly to pay $70+ for one weapon.
They should have just replaced the Inkstrike with Tenta Missiles or give it a more cohesive kit like Curling Bomb/Curling Bomb Launcher and adjusted the main weapon so that it is not completely countered by dualies.
