Blaster

The Blaster is a main weapon in the SS undefined, created by Custom.

The weapon shoots special ink rounds that burst like fireworks after traveling a certain distance. These bursts can deal damage in a wide area, allowing its user to attack opponents hiding behind obstacles and around corners. The explosive round does enough damage to splat opponents with only one direct hit or two indirect hits. Its fire rate is faster than that of the Range Blaster, and slower than that of the Luna Blaster.

Appearance
The Blaster's appearance is based on the idea of a "hot rod", or custom, car. The rear of the weapon is a spray can, the kind of spray can that would be used to custom-paint a car. The middle of the weapon exposes the internals of the weapon as if to make it easier for the owner to tweak and maintain any custom parts inside. The exposed spring resembles the coil springs in car suspensions. The front of the weapon features a flame design characteristic of custom-painted cars, which is painted on an object that resembles a muffler. As of Splatoon 3, the front of the weapon also features a handle, resembling ones seen on paint cans.

Splatoon
The Blaster comes in a set with the Disruptors and Killer Wail. The weapon consumes 8% of the ink tank's capacity with each shot, and the ink tank refills 1.67% of its capacity between each shot, allowing for 15 shots to be fired before needing to refill on ink.

For competitive tips about the Blaster

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
The Blaster appears as Inkling's up smash attack in, alongside a variety of other weapons that Inkling uses in their attacks.

When attacking, Inkling charges up their attack and fires the Blaster upwards to deal damage to opponents above them. This attack has a large radius, much like the blaster in the Splatoon franchise, and can sometimes deal damage to opponents around Inkling if they're close enough. This also coats opponents in ink, as do most of Inkling's attacks, but does not ink the ground. It deals much lower damage if Inkling is out of ink.

Trivia

 * Concept art for the Blaster reveals that the rear of the weapon was originally designed after a gumball machine or gachapon instead of the spray can that was used in the final design.
 * This gumball machine design is similar to the Blobby Octotrooper's vehicle.
 * The Blaster was one of the 26 different weapons available to use in the Splatoon 3 Splatfest World Premiere.
