Who else gives nicknames to their weapons? I like to call the .96 Gal (regular) the "Bully Gun"; score one hit, they freak out like a squid in water and start backing up. After that just slowly walk towards them while shooting until they run out of space to run. :3

I like to call the Inkbrush the "Samurai Katana" science the best strategy is flailing it around wildly to cover ink/attack. Brush duels are hardcore bouts testing the skill in who can mash ZR fastest.

Rollers are tanks. Armored tanks.

If I were to nickname my main, the Splattershot Jr., I'd call it The Pocket Rocket because despite its size, it packs a punch. That and my side weapon is the Grenade, so Rocket fits the set as a whole besides the Bubbler.

:bubbler:

Most of my weapon nicknames tend to just be contracted versions of the full name. Like the Splattershot Jr. is just the Jr., the 52, the 96er, stuff like that.

I call the Dynamo Roller the "Behemoth club"
I honestly don't know why.
Other than weapon names i love to give nicknames to the different ink colors, I.E. : Pink is "Pepto Bismol" and I call Purple "Purple Drank"

I name every one of my main weapons, though I just maxed out my favorite one Yuuta. My friends laughed or face palmed at the fact that I named my weapons though.
Krak-On Roller ~ Yuuta
Carbon Roller ~ Momoko
Inkbrush ~ Leonardo Da Vinci
Octobrush ~ Mickey/Harry Potter (So hard because one moment it reminds me of Harry Potter and the next time its like I'm playing Epic Mickey again xD)

I usually call the Aerosprays "AAHHH STOP I HATE THIS" or at least, that's what I say whenever I see one when I die.

I've started calling E-liters "God hands" because pecking people off unsuspecting people with it's range feels like toying with the battlefield.

Squiffers are also "glorified Windex bottles" but I only say that because I completely adore them. Also they're good at cleaning up the competition. (Ey? Ey?? Okay, I'm done)

In order to keep tradition, I decided to name my Heavy Splatling "Faith" (I love making things with multiple meanings ;))
