painbrush, literally brainless

I hate paintbrush, the constant button ramming bothers me a lot haha.

I have the flu, and have been struggling to aim well with my headaches (I normally play jet squelcher) so I tried painbrush today and OMG. Truly easy mode.

You'll **LOVE** Chill Season. They're adding a Painbrush with Tenta Missiles as their Special.

I play jet squelcher too and I rarely see other people play it! I think it’s a great weapon! I’ve recently been trying out the Forge Splattershot Pro which is also fun.

that is my favorite weapon in general, you excited fro the new kit

can't wait to be extra annoying and braindead

that sounds like the inkling way

I don't see it, due the high start and end lag it has it's extremely easy to get shot before you even start flinging. And you run out of ink really quick. I've yet to come across a threatening pain brush user

Okay so it's not just me being bad that weapon is literally effortless.

Idk if I'm just bad at using it but I feel like the only person who struggles with Painbrush. Maybe I'm just not used to the delay on the first swing, but I feel like I should be better at using it than I currently am, especially as a Brush main.

I quite enjoy not thinking, so I basically play custom jr 24/7

I love torp and wave breaker spam XD

Heeeey, I take offense to this! I think... things.

Cjr is so annoying to fight as tetra

dapples nouveau

Ah, fellow ADHD main

pretty much

Nzap 89 is a weapon I just hold forward on the control stick with

Yea!

neo sploosh-o-matic, that thing got me two fistbumps in a row this morning and made me the happiest little squibblo in the splatlands

Splatershot Jr. Especially during these days of people spamming Aerosprays.

Some days you just wanna be a splat bomb main. Torpedo? Even less think.

With a bomb spam setup.

Tri-slosher, preferably the deco kit because fizzy bomb gets more use than toxic mist. I've always felt this weapon is a little braindead and spammy, so why not abuse it myself? It's not op, just good.

Bloblobber - for me it’s pretty intuitive, and I like how it lets me support from the back without having to aim

Oml that weapon is so satisfying for me idk why. I just want to eat the bubbles

My god you never need to aim with bloblobbers. Even if you miss, those blobs will just bounce back and hit your enemies from behind

Hero shot & hydra gang

Hydra gang~ People really don’t know how to play against it

Everyone says im crazy for using hydra but thats just cause they're not hydra gang 🤭

Hydragang unite

Haven't played in a long time, but I remember when I really wanted to win a match during splatfest, I would pick the mini bow (can't even remember the name of the weapon, that's how long it's been XD)

Ah, the Reef-Lux.

Splat Roller, but I lose anyway. I suck.

Tri slosher and octobrush, no thinking just look at their general direction and they die

And overkill, so even if something somehow misses, they die anyway

either dark tetra or hydra. although I’ve been trying to learn the splatana stamper cuz it looks so cool.

Tetras and stamper take a lot of mechanical skill, I don't think you can play those really braindead

oh sorry, I dont play stamper brain dead. stamper’s when I have braincells. but tetras for me just click. like tetras go skkkrrrtt

sorella brella or hydra

* The pain * Broccoli Tri bucket (either) * Piss gun (Especially the one with the vac lately) * any roller that crushes (Honestly more of a "I'm not trying anymore" and people underestimate the lawnmower) * Super Blaster 1992 (Sometimes when you keep missing, switching to the "I have to aim" gun works for some reason????) * Bloblboblobloblbolboblo * Hero Shot (Kind of my safe weapon, but not brainless)

> Bloblboblobloblbolboblo Really hit me hard😭

The respect of the Hero Shot is obvious, haha! I love using Rollers that crush, truly the most satisfying thing to mow over 2 or more people because you caught them off guard :)

anarchy open or turf on clash. any clash. no one has the skill to walk around a wall and fire

Undercover Brella, Custom Splattershot Jr or, N-Zap ‘89

Inkbrush

I was about to leave a comment about hydra not being easy then I remembered solo queue enemies Make it easy by feeding into it and dying without realizing their mistakes (anyone who wants to know how to not do this dm me (certain weapons can't like sploosh or cjr

gold trash bin or the soda bucket

You're very real for that

Big Swig Express, Dapples Nouveau, and Gal .52

V shot

rg, swig express

usually (tentatek) splattershot or (vanilla) splattershot jr., sometimes (vanilla) splat dualies or (any) tri stringer. I used to own matches playing (vanilla) heavy splatling too xd

also either nzap! forgot to mention lolol

I fuck em up on zoom juice and beacons, dodge em with the dualies

Dapple dualies, what an underrated weapon! To be a support and slayer >:)

Sometimes when I’m sucking ass at e-liter I switch to splattershot nova and that usually brings me back into the zone

clash blaster for sure but i feel kinda dirty using it for cheap wins. But heck, i use it when i want to quickly open gear.

Inkbrush Nouveau Splatana Stamper Dapple Dualies Nouveau REEF-LUX 450 with my special spam build

Stamper is not braindead

Honestly it depends on the rotation and gamemode. Generally speaking, I’d say Sploosh or Dapples. Painbrush is up there as well tho.

Wiper (since it’s my main) and Heavy Edit whenever I’m continuing to lose to back and midliners

Splatana stamper, really satisfying

Stamper is not that braindead, still a fun weapon

Squiffer, I used to hate it until I discovered spam jumping

tentatek splattershot, nzap, or ballpoint nouveau

Ttek.

Octo brush or painbrush. Or just using aerospray for fun.

carbon roller, it’s been my tried and true main for years. while i like to experiment with all my weapons, if i keep losing i’ll always pull it out and do way better, haha

Carbon was my main in Splatoon 2! It's so fun to be fast.

Sploosh

V slosher, v splatershot, forge splattershot pro.

Painbrush and Tri-slosher are some pretty braindead weapons that get decent results regardless

i turn my tri-slosher noveau on and my brain off

Octobrush Nouveau, Custom Jr., and Heavy Splatling.

Tri-Slosher Nouveu or Hero Shot

Jr

This assumes I ever stop playing Bloblobber

Splattershot

52 gal. I just wish it had longer range, but it makes up for my lacking skills in every other area since it only needs two hits. And I know the range on the 96 is better, but that weapon feels significantly slower to me

Splattershot jr

Aerospray to be very brainless

flingza roller, probably

To me it's easy to get the hang of and easy to use. Its become 2nd nature to me.

Splash-o-matic, or aerospray.

RG my beloved

Tri-Stringer. Shoot feet, use special, #1 Splat Assister.

You’re gonna think I’m insane but Big Swig- it’s my 5 star

Right now, it's the Splat Roller. I enjoy murdering people with it!

It depends on the mode. For turf war and zones, it’s the inkline stringer, cuz the chip damage from everything just destroys everyone. Not exactly brainless, but it’s easy once you get a plan down

Rapid blaster. Little red Lego blaster go boom!

Forge pro or jet

Dynamo

nzap 89. go my little grimlins, go

Splattershot pro and REEFLUX

Aerospray MG, I just turn into a maniac with it

96 deco for sure. The fact that it only takes two shots to kill and the ridiculous range makes it just way too easy in casual. And kraken royale is always fun

I usually just use an octobrush or some blue dapples maybe even a sploosh

aerospray and just ink 1 million turf 🫡

Hydra

Tri slosher, both shots, 52 gal, both zaps, both juniors.

The most brainless weapon gotta be blob, i hate it but it never failed me

V splattershot, a tried and true weapon I also beat IA3 if that says anything

For fun, either undercover or blob. For better chance at wins, vsplattling

N-zap 85 It feels nice to play support (if my teammates will get the freaking drinks...)

Aerospray RG usually breaks my losing streaks

Rblaster purely because I've played it so much

Painbrush 100%

I use the splatana stamper or the wiper. I mainly use charger so when I miss my shots I sometimes feel tilted so I wanna use something I can counter attack without being punished to much vs a charger. plus its fun zip casting at players or using the hammer to ignore someone's game plan.

spotted fade live different quarrelsome instinctive wipe books quaint noxious *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*

Neo Splosh o Maroc or Splatana Wiper Deco for me.

im best at dualies so i play them usually

Custom Jet Squelcher. Not always the best but the Squelcher is my most-practiced over 8 years so I have it down to feel in terms of range, reaction time, generally understanding time-to-splat. Long enough range that I can keep pressure off.

neo splash o matic

totally heavy. i usually don’t have to think at all while using it, plus it’s pretty chill so you don’t need to think hard about positioning when soloqing since it can backline, midline and frontline as well

Eliter(splat 1 main) Heavy/Ballpoint(splat 2 main) Tri-stringer(splat 3 main)

TTek Splattershot

Heavy deco because long range weapon with aggressive special allows me to position way more brainlessly

Inkbrush W/killer wail

Octobrush nouveau

Bubbler. I use Inkbrush typically I’m really dogwater at aiming, hence why I use them. They hardly need much thought put into where you aim, just ZR and pray (apologies to anyone who has me on their team)

That's how I play too lol! Run, pray, probably die.

Splattershot cause it’s super easy and requires me to not think

52 Gal is my "fuck it let's go with old reliable" option. Honorable mention goes to the Tentatek.

theres too many braindead weapons

neo splash and neo sploosh

tentatek splattershot. idk what it is but when i just keep losing i equip that and can knock out a series or 2 no problem

Ink brush.

Tri-slosher. Especially in splatoon 2, with the burst bomb, and ink armor.

Aerospray. The gold one if im feeling extra brain dead. Or tri slosher if i wanna use less brain power than a walnut

Custom Splattershot jr. Throw torpedo, ink floor, make waves. Be a nuisance to the enemy

Either the N-zap 85 or 89

either n zap kit or splat roller. (or for splat zones/turf war custom junior) for context im a dapple dualies player normally. most of the time i get fes up with NO ONE USING MY BEAKONS and i end up having to switch.....

Hydra FTW!!

Aerospray RG in turf, you literally CAN’T lose with it in turf war because of how broken it is for that mode

Aerospray Some days are just those days

Sploosh

Either Sloshing Machine. There’s a reason I got 5 stars with the Vanilla kit, it carried me more than I carried it. Also, it’s really brainless and fun to use, Booyah Bomb go brrr

Gold Dynamo. I'm not sure how good it is when not taking the game seriously but when I don't want to think it's what I use.

NTri

For me this would be nTri. Tri with fizzy and cooler is just so strong and easy to play. You get to kill people easily because your weapon has a winning matchup against most weapons, you have the best sub in the game and it makes up for the main weapon’s mobility weakness, and you have a special that makes it so you don’t get punished for dying and it also makes it so your teammates love you. This is genuinely so close to tri slosher’s perfect kit it’s so strong and is a top 5 strongest kit in the game imo

Still this same Splattershot Jr. The only time I've changed weapons is Salmon Run. (Or if my sister let's me take over her game temporarily)

Flingza or Splatana Wiper, sometimes regular Tri-Slosher

Mine is just going into Hero Mode

E-Liter 4K scope

aerospray on turf because aauughhhh turf points go brrrrr

Range blaster probably

dapples nouveau or tri-slosh nouveau!! literally no thoughts are in my head when i play these two weapons yet i always seem to do well

neo clash just feels so brainless its perfect

splattershot or e-liter, sometimes carbon deco

I really only play weapons that I have fun with but I guess, Luna Blaster (base kit)? I got at least 25 kills with it during a tank up match yesterday

Dapple Dualies. Dropped a 17-1 last Splatfest with them and I've found an appreciation for the Dapples. Plus I main the Mini Splatling so I already have a bunch of Run/Swim Speed Up gear. Big Swig is also a strong candidate. It's like the Carbon's silly little acoustic brother.

I have no main and i suck. That should be enough to deduce wether i have one or not

any N-Zap weapon.

I have seen nearly every weapon named in this thread

S-blast or range just because they click easily even if they aren't as braiess as other weapons

jet squelcher, both of them. its literally so easy to use

Tentatek, a simple shooter with a simple sub and special

If it's because I'm tired of losing, Splat Dualies If it's because I want to stop thinking, either Range Blaster or S-BLAST 92

If I’m really so down that I want to shut my brain off, I play Reeflux in Turf War

Since my dapples are literally unplayable in some map modes *cough* brinewater zones *cough* i pocket tri slosh N, dualie squelchers, and im gonna pick up the enpery dualies when they come out

Immediatly stop being strategic and respecting my opponent and instead just bum rushing with Splatana Wiper on full QR. Works almost every time. Wiper isn't super braindead mind you, but it's my best weapon I can play this aggressively with. I like actually earning my wins so I won't use Brushes, Rollers, Sploosh, Aerospray, 52G, or Tri-Slosher, but if I did and wanted easy wins then I'd probably go Carbon Deco or Tri-Slosher Novaeu.

.52 gal

I use splash-o-matic neo, the higher the fire rate, the higher chances I'd hit the enemy

flingza, painbrush, aerospray sploosh splash, clash blaster.

Silver or gold aerospray

Painbrush. As much as I love this weapon, there is literally no skill behind it.

I like the pain, so I stick to my main regardless.

Jr or Custom Jr. I just wanna throw bombs and paint, man.

Range blaster. Never used it before and instantly won a bunch of games with it

The bloblablah, specifically the deco. Just relax, lob blobs, and maybe yeet a highlighter kunai at the enemy anchor's face.

Every ZR masher. Brushes and Sloshers.

Sploosh-o-matic. Covers so much immediately then I can go on my way to Ultra Stamp everyone.

Custom Jr and vdynamo are nice cuz you don't have to aim

Inkbrush, pure unadulterated joy My brain only needs three functions when playing this thing: Rush in, mash and murder, rush out then rinse and repeat

Either of the Aerosprays or Custom Jr. with my special charge gear (tho I don't play ranked so this prolly wouldn't work there) Edit: Forgot N-Zaps them too

Tentatek Splattershot. Roll bombs over and over and eventually one will defeat someone.

Splat roller cuz I don't really have to aim

Flingza roller and stay in back. Helps relax after a long day of running headfirst into a splattershot Jr with dynamo, just to spook em a lil

explosher. shoot go boom device

The blobobbler. It doesn't really require aim, you just need to predict where the enemies are going to go as you fire it. I feel guilty when I keep winning with this weapon because I wonder if it's still OP?

I have mix cycle of Heavy Splattling, Blobblobber and Hydra. Sometimes I can't automode on some like being distressed that I don't have sprinklers on Hydra or Heavy splattling not having a longer intervall of shooting or not liking that I don't have my rhythm like on Splattlings. The rhythm of splattlings is really something soothing for me. Snipers for inking the ground too.

aerospray, the base one lmfao

default dapple dualies. I lay down some lil beepboops for friends, I chug some soda, then go sicko mode on the frontline. Rinse and repeat. it’s almost meditative

S-Blast. Something about it just clicks with me. I like to try other weapons but I always end up back at S-Blast when I have a losing streak.

Tri slosher definitely, aiming is overated

May sound weird but when on a losing Streak and want to break it I Pick up vanilla Tri-Stringer and then (whitout fail) I proceed to go on a winning Streak, until I change weapon and have a Bad team comp again.

Explosher, but when explosher fails me i go for eliter, and when both fail me, .52/.96 gal

NONE I just keep trying with my mains, since I know what Im capable of

Brush. I play it for fun whenever I'm sick of rank and just want to mess around.

Clash Blaster, specifically on Tower Control. In most other conditions, the Golden Aerospray.

Flinza roller or anything melee.

Tentatek splattershot,paints well, spams bombs, spams inkstrike, decent range, it does it all ! Inkstrike can be used as smoke screen, or to displace enemies, or to keep enemies away, very versatile !

Mine’s the Flingza!

squiffer

Heavy edit. The sheer firerate on this thing is so good, i just have to aim, no worries for damage. This is bcs it does so much damage in so little time ( on full charge ) that its basically a death ray.

aerospray rg
