Finally!!! Is there any weapon with less variants than the Aerospray? Because at a whopping two Aerosprays, I would be surprised.
 
The Aerospray is one of the reasons I quit the game.
 
Oh hey new weapons!

Leading up to June 7, we’ll be counting down by previewing Sheldon’s new weapon combos one by one.

Introducing the Grim Range Blaster: a Range Blaster remodeled by Sheldon! Inklings have described it as “totally metal.” Between the Burst Bombs sub and the explosive main, it’s truly an aggressive set capable of dispatching opponents with frightening speed.

The N-ZAP ‘83 is an N-ZAP '85 that Sheldon modified to faithfully recreate a classic limited-edition piece. It’s so faithful, in fact, that players think the buttons might stick a bit sometimes… But that’s not a bug – it’s a feature, right? The Point Sensor and Kraken make for a set that is handy for cutting off your opponents’ advance.

The Bento Splat Charger features some weird green stuff Sheldon found washed up on a beach. We agree with Sheldon and think it’s pretty cool. It’s basically the same as the regular Splat Charger, but Sheldon amped up the defense with a Splash Wall. The Echolocator makes this set perfect for caring souls who love to support their teammates.

The Bento Splatterscope is a Bento Splat Charger with a scope added for long-range sniping. As Sheldon explains it: “This set suits (passive) aggressive squids who like to pick off opponents from a distance. Blammo!”
 
OUTRIGHT DISGUST.
 
So far two more weapons!

The Sploosh-o-matic 7 retains the stats of the original model while adding more strategic options. The short-range main has been bolstered by mid- and long-range sub and special weapons, allowing you to fight effectively at any distance.

Check out the super sweet Cherry H-3 Nozzlenose. The Splash Wall sub weapon lets you leverage the great range of the main, while the Bubbler is perfect for turning the tables in a pinch.

As Sheldon puts it: “It’s super cute with its fruity color scheme and cherry-themed sticker!”

Yeah that's true. It's a cute gun.

More weapons? More weapons.

The CoroCoro Splat Roller is decorated with a rad logo Sheldon found inscribed on some ancient writings. The way Sheldon describes it:

It has a new hollow-titanium frame, ball-bearing joints, steering dampers, super stabilizers… So many new parts, in fact, that it kind of… came full circle. The specs ended up identical to the Splat Roller.

But the addition of Splash Walls combined with the powerful Inkzooka make this set full of exciting new possibilities.

Meet the Heavy Splatling Remix. It’s not a remix to your favorite headbanger - It’s, uh, a remixed version of the Heavy Splatling. Warm up the crowd with the Sprinkler sub and then drown ‘em out with the devastating Killer Wail for an encore.

The Aerospray PG is best described as a little update to the Aerospray MG that Sheldon built from his grandpappy’s blueprints. No matter how you describe it, it’s definitely a hand-crafted work of art. Burst Bombs help claim turf and the Kraken crushes enemy defenses.
 
That's... actually a pretty dang good set for aerospray
 
You must remember that it's still an Aerospray.
 
Okay this might be me and the whole not having the game thing but what's wrong with the Aerospray? I don't know.
 
Nothing really its just not that strong of a gun.

Its more for painting areas than for defense. You use it more in something like turf war rather than say tower control.

So it may be a bit weird to have a special based on tanking and attacking for a gun that's more about coverage.
 
Oh ok!

Actually having a tanking special/attacking special sounds fine to me. I mean it's like backup right? Something to help the coverage I guess?
 
Well yeah but I always used Kraken as more of a "crowd" breaker. something to disperse/thin out groups in short time. so for me its not really a needed special if Im using the areospray since iim more about covering area rather than attacking.
 
That makes sense.

Also onto things that aren't Aerospray related. Ahem...

SHELDON’S PICKS VOL. 2 ARE COMING OUT TONIGHT. OH DANG!

Don’t forget that Sheldon’s Picks Vol. 2 are coming tonight! In addition to weapons, we forgot to mention that a couple pieces of gear will also drop: the CoroCoro Cap and CoroCoro Hoodie! These new pieces of gear are in collaboration with CoroCoro Comic in Japan. Once the game is updated, don’t forget to check out Cooler Heads and Jelly Fresh!
 
Okay this may seem off topic but since this is the Splatoon thread, are funny Gmod videos allowed? I mean the stop motion kind that involve squids that people have made?

As long as it's relevant to Splatoon I think you can. The Overwatch thread has already been posting those kinds of videos and nothing has happened.

Alright then!
 
Incredibly sorry for double-posting, but here are some a couple personal favorite videos of mine.

 
Well of course it's not the best quality.

It's Marie.
 
So are you guys are a bird person or a bird person?

The early bird may get the worm, but the night owl gets like four more hours of sleep and who the heck wants a worm anyways?!?

Head to the plaza tomorrow to cast your vote in the next Splatfest: Early Birds vs. Night Owls. The showdown will start on 6/24 at 9PM PT.

Team Sleep is For the Weak.

I am both night owl and early bird, but I select Callie, for she is the superior squid.
 
It just means you enjoy a sampling of trash alongside the main event.
 
Then you're nonexistent.
