Squid Beakon

The Squid Beakon is a Sub Weapon in Splatoon.

Description
After being placed by an Inkling, other Inklings on the same team will be able to Super Jump to the placed Beakon. When an Inkling from an opposing team shoots the other team's Beakon, or when the Beakon has been used once, it will be destroyed and no longer available for use. Up to three Beakons can be placed down by one person at any one time. If the user attempts to place another Beakon after three have already been placed, the new Beakon will be placed but the earliest active Beakon will be destroyed.

Tips

 * Try to place the Beakons in advantageous places that enemies cannot easily reach.
 * If done correctly, a player can use the Beakons as bait during ranked battles. When the enemy comes to destroy it, the player could ambush them.
 * Spray some ink around and beneath the Beakon, so any arriving player can hide immediately.
 * If a good spot for a Beakon is found, place a new Beakon as soon as it is used.
 * It is possible to use Beakons as short weak shields against enemy fire.
