What's the worst possible kit you could give to a weapon? You're allowed to use any sub and special in the series, just be creative

Sploosh-o-Matic - Sprinkler (Specifically Splatoon 3's, we don't want the offensive capabilities 1 or 2's version has) | Auto Bomb Launcher
What are you gonna do? Seek me out? Use Sprinkler to get more paint so you can throw bombs that go nowhere? Are you gonna become an Autobomb main? Are you gonna become a cryptid that only exists to halfheartedly paint the zone and farm Clams? I was thinking of giving it Sting Ray but it could hypothetically make good use with that by dying with a lot of sub saver equipped, you just can't do anything with this kit.

Edit: I actually wanted to give it Seeker Rush from Splatoon 1 but Bomb Rush is dependent on the main weapon's sub (A weapon with Splat Bomb can't have Burst Bomb Rush because it doesn't have Burst Bomb as a sub for example) , so it'd actually get Sprinkler Rush, which is cool therefore we cannot have it

Angle Shooter and S2 Splashdown on Machine.
If we weren't using specials from the whole series then I would have chosen Slider instead so not much is different there.

If we're going across games then Splatoon 1's Ink Mine and Splatoon 2's Splashdown, both in the first patches of their respective games, are the worst. You lose the ability to sub strafe with those Ink Mines and they take way too long to explode for them to be any kind of helpful. Everyone knows why Splashdown is bad. If I were to attach those to a worst weapon then I don't know, probably Splatoon 1 Inkbrush. Its kill time is absolutely horrible in that game and its mobility gimmick doesn't work super well because of how it has no ink resistance. You could probably argue something like Aerospray or Undercover Brella but Aerospray can paint well and Undercover could maybe at least mildly annoy stuff that can't break its shield fast for some reason.

Aerospray, with Mist and Screen.
it can’t do anything. Its special is barely worth anything, and nothing will combo, no kit damage, And a bad main weapon.

Just reread the thread title and I think I might have misunderstood what the topic is about.
Regardless, @DzNutsKong is right about S1 Ink Mine and S2 Splashdown probably being the worst kit possible.
I forgot how bad Ink Mine used to be in S1.

This Carbon Roller set comes with Splash Wall and Stingray! Now, we all know carbon roller likes to be aggressive, but don't you wish it could also defend itself?
Protect yourself from the opponents with the Splash Wall sub weapon, and ink around you with one of the worst painting weapons in the game! If an enemy eliter gets a seizure and runs at your splash wall for no reason, WACK! Bonk them with your clever trap, they couldn't see it coming!

What's this? After getting two splats, you managed to charge your special? Then use your aggressive Stingray! It's supposed to be used at a distance, but thanks to your splash wall, you may be able to catch people off guard with your bold, stylish playstyle!

This set's got it all, offense and defense!

If Aerospray didn't get a second kit before Chill Season 24, that would be it

Get some splats with your main weapon and jump back to base to see the fruits of your labor!

I feel like the goal here isn’t to brainstorm the worst kit theoretically possible, it‘s to screw over any main weapon however you like.

For example, .52 Gal with Squid Beakon and Wave Breaker. You want a sub weapon? Yeah, how about no. Aggressive special to push the weapon’s playmaking power? Absolutely not. You get a Wave Breaker with no damage combos.

Another example, Hydra Splatling with 70% cost Curling Bomb and heavy Baller. Sure, you get a bomb. Kind of. It eats up so much of your ink tank that you probably can’t fully charge it after throwing one. Then you have a very useful self-defence baller that travels at the speed of sound… in a vacuum.

Aerospray with Toxic Mist and Ink Vac. You wanted to paint the map? Good luck.

Splat Roller with Splash Wall and OG Inkzooka, which was a fixed 220p no matter which weapon it was on. Good luck getting special.
If you know, you know.

Jet Squelcher with Curling Bomb and Ultra Stamp. You’re going to the front line to do anything, whether you like it or not.

Be fun with this, people!

Imagine if they gave angle shooter to big swig its more expensive than a horizontal swing and would deal the same damage even when you miss like it would be so bad
Honestly Nintendo already did my job, we're just competing for second place

Inkbrush is a decent mobility-based weapon, right? Why not swim through Curling Bomb's straight line(s)? It's totally not more ink-efficient to run with the brush! Huh, the immunity to enemy paint unique to this brush? Bleck!
Oh, give this main weapon Tri-Strike too! Have fun being unable to swim OR run for three seconds!

We'd be hard-pressed to screw over Burst Bomb or Splat Bomb, though. The Tri-Stringer's meant to be a versatile blend of chargers' backline-heavy gameplay and the trickshot gameplay of blasters & buckets. Imagine a Goo Tuber-like Stringer with either of those subs. (Explosher shots are literal bombs, but Burst Bomb would be a big help for that backline bucket's sluggishness.)
Aaaand it'd be funny to pair this "Slop Stringer" with Zipcaster! It won't be as good of a slayer in the air, will it?

Seeker/Splashdown Hydra.
It's kinda funny how close s2 vHydra was to being the worst kit of all timetm
Literally if Autobomb and Curlies stayed together as Seeker we could've potentially seen it.

Pop a Seeker to find enemies/make an escape route? Have fun not having ink anymore! Better hope you have Splashdown charged to defend yourself. And that said Splashdown doesn't get cancelled! Also you can't sub strafe!
