Splattershot Jr. or Spash-o-matic just because I get bored and the special is way to fun with the suction bomb rush. Sometimes I like to mess with the new squiffer or the paintbrush as well.

I use the Krak-On Splat Roller during Splatfest.

Honestly, I have no idea.
On the one hand, I used the N-Zap '89 during the last Splatfest and almost always won with it.
On the other hand, I haven't used it since, and I might use the Octobrush or Inkbrush for this one. Or maybe one of the Dynamo Rollers, I've been trying those out lately.
Ooh, but on my imaginary third hand, I've got to wait until I see the August Update's weapons before I make a definite decision. Between the Splatling and the Bucket Slosher and whatever else we get then, I dunno what I might end up picking up for Splatfest.
But if I had to choose right now, I'd probably use the Octobrush. I'm really feeling it right now, and it's pretty good in general, at least I think so.

Aerospray, the gold one!

I found a great team during the last splatfest and I just kept laying down ink mines and watching the opposing team make the same mistake repeatedly

Might go with the new ink brush this time tho

My go-to is the .96 Gal for its range and Echolocator. I think the echolocator is great in splatfests since no one can run the cold-blooded ability :P

it'll have to depend on the map rotation. if there are maps i'm bad at, i'll go for the aerospray/nzap/splattershot jr no question. with the right maps, i'll use my mains, the nozzlenose and jet squelcher.

Generally I stick to my best weapon, the default Jr., until I hit King/Queen rank, just for the sake of getting it done as quick as I can. After that I relax and branch out with more weapons to keep things interesting.

I use my main, the Squiffer, if I'm playing good that day.
I've gotten hellishly good with in in turf wars, but if I'm just going down the drain in terms of skill, I'll switch to whatever shooter will work.

The Inkbrush or the Krak-On.

Depends if I want to win because I inked the most turf or if I want to win because I shut down the enemy.

Krak-on is usually very easy to win with, so I go with that a lot. But I like to stick with the splash-o-matic during Splatfest otherwise.

I'll probably alternate between Splahomatic, Krakon Roller and a bit of NZap. If I get bored with those I'll switch over to a brush of some sort. I've been trying them out recently to mixed success.

I used the Splash-o-Matic throughout both of the previous Splatfests, so I guess that'd be my normal Splatfest weapon. Although I tend to alternate between weapons quite a bit for Turf War, so I may use something different next time.

That's the one I've found the most success with as well, sprinklers can distract enemies and cover the spawn quickly. Plus, they charge up your special meter, so pumping out echolocators is a piece of cake.
