Weapon Quotes[]

“	One for the pros. Not outrageously powerful, but highly accurate. This weapon really comes into its own in the hands of someone with good aim.	”
	— In-Game Description

“	For your main weapon, I present the Splash-o-matic, a weapon fine-tuned for highly accurate barrages! It's a little lacking in power, but it can ink the ground rapidly, letting you quickly fill up your special gauge. Then with the Bomb Rush special weapon, you can toss Suction Bombs to your heart's content! Fun, yes?	”
	— Sheldon (Splatoon)

“	For your main weapon, I present the Splash-o-matic, a weapon fine-tuned for highly accurate barrages! It's a little lacking in power, but it provides pretty good cover with its rapid fire. You can limit your opponent's movements with Toxic Mist, and then complete the domination with the Inkjet special! I recommend this for aggressive players who want to lay the smackdown on their opponents!	”
	— Sheldon (Splatoon 2)

“	For your main weapon, I present the Splash-o-matic, a weapon fine-tuned for highly accurate barrages! It may not have the ink spread or raw power of some weapons, but it more than makes up for it with rapid fire that is quite rapid indeed. Plus, when you can pin down an enemy with Burst Bombs, you don't need as much power. Simply splatter them at your leisure while they're mired in your ink. And with the Crab Tank special your back pocket, nothing can stand in your way! Try not to laugh maniacally as you overpower the other team time and again.	”
	— Sheldon (Splatoon 3)

Strategy[]

Shooters are the backbone of (almost) any good team. They're versatile and varied with each weapon, and cover plenty of ground, as well as apply more pressure to the enemy team than either Charger or Roller weapons.

The Splash-o-matic is great for spreading ink due to its high firing rate. It also has high accuracy unlike its counterpart, the Sploosh-o-matic, due to its narrow tip. It does not have great range or damage however so it is best to use Suction Bombs to handle enemy which are at distance.

Tips for facing each weapon type[]

Shooter-type weapons are slightly out of your favor - unfortunately, your weapon has some very low range. The best option is to either sneak up behind them and ambush them or have gear that has Ninja Squid ability to approach them to deal with it. In addition you can use your Bomb Rush to force them to retreat.

Trivia[]

This weapon looks like it is made up of a pen. If you look closely, you can see the end, middle, and point of the pen. You can also see a pen clip on the top of the gun.
The Splash-o-matic was released on June 12th (13th EU), 2015.
A variant of the Splash-o-matic is the Neo Splash-O-Matic.
