Inkstrike

The Inkstrike is a Special Weapon in Splatoon.

Description
Like all special weapons, it must be charged before it can be used. To use it, the player must activate it and tap anywhere on the Wii U GamePad's screen to launch it. It will cause a giant tornado made of ink to appear and will kill any Inklings on the opposing team who are caught in its path.

Development
In development, the Inkstrike was referred to as an Ink Tornado and caused a large dome of ink to appear, instead of the current tornado design.

Tips

 * Because using the Inkstrike prevents players from spreading ink momentarily and requires them to concentrate on the Wii U GamePad, those using an Inkstrike can be easily splatted. When using an Inkstrike, make sure to stay a safe distance away from the action.
 * When an Inkstrike is placed, a large, swirling icon will appear on the battlefield. Quickly evacuate this area to avoid being splatted.

Trivia

 * Originaly the Inkstrike was meant to create a giant orb of ink instead of a tornado like appearance. It was also called the Ink Tornado.
 * If one looks closely, the "5.2" in its licensing on the weapon is actually 50.
