Disruptor

The Disruptor is a Sub Weapon in Splatoon .

Description

Disruptors will not deal damage, but instead will lower the running speed, swimming speed, and ink recovery speed of a rival squid.

Tips

• Throw it onto unsuspecting Inklings to make them easier to hit and make it harder for them to react.
• The Disruptor can be used as an escape tool. Throw it at the fastest enemy and proceed to get away in Squid Form.
• Use it to slow down fast targets such as the Inkbrush, a weapon known for its lightweight and speedy maneuvers.
• Under normal circumstances it takes 50% of  your ink tank.  This means if you start with a full tank and throw two in a row, you will not be able to fire any shots afterwards.
• The debuff, or decrease in status attributes, it causes on its target lasts for approximately 5.15 secoonds.

Countering

• Keep an eye out for Disruptors flying towards you and use Squid Form to dodge it.
• If you see an ally getting disrupted, splat the Disruptor user before they splat your allies.
