Splatoon 3 - Ranked Mode strategy

When it comes to weapons sets in Splatoon, there are two kinds of people: those who evaluate sets within the context of the game mode and those who judge them on a tier list. I'm obviously part of the first category, though I accept the second group is more popular, with people discarding certain weapon sets altogether. The Slosher Deco being an obvious example. Because of Angle Shooter. In a vacuum, it's hard to justify that sub over Splat Bomb, though look at the costs involved: Angle Shooter costs 30% less ink for a weapon that costs 7% per shot with a two shot splat.

Probably because vanilla forced you to commit to Burst Bomb based offense and was prone to overextending. Overall, the Splattershot received plenty of buffs in its timeline, mostly around
