'''Brushes''' are one of the [[main weapon]] classes, introduced as an independent weapon class in {{S3}}. In the previous titles of the {{Ss}}, Brushes were part of the [[Roller]] class, with which they share some technical characteristics. Brushes have two attack modes: by repeatedly pressing {{Button|ZR|Switch}}, the player will make their brush-type weapon swing and sprinkle ink globes that spread forwards turfing the floor; by holding {{Button|ZR|Switch}} and moving, the player will instead push the brush on the ground, similar to a roller, but much faster and covering less area. While the first attack mode is effective for inking the stage and [[Splat (occurrence)|splatting]] opponents, the latter is more useful for escaping enemies or encircling them to trap and easily splat them.


==List of Brushes==
'''Brushes''' are one of the [[main weapon]] classes in the {{Ss}}.
 
Broadly similar to [[roller]]s, brushes feature the same style of swinging the weapon to flick splashes of ink and the ability to push them along the ground while moving to create a trail of ink, although they possess less ink concentration and a much thinner trail respectively.
 
==General mechanics==
 
Taps of {{Button|ZR|Switch}} will allow quick side-to-side flicks of a brush, spreading globs of ink in a wide radius. If {{Button|ZR|Switch}} is held, the player can then proceed to push the brush in front of them while moving, creating an ink trail and dealing damage to enemies that contact the brush. Compared to rollers, all damage is considerably weaker across the board and leaves players incapable of a one-hit splat regardless of brush choice.
 
==Classification==
While brushes have been in the {{Ss}} since {{S}}, games prior to {{S3}} classified them as [[Roller|rollers]] because the two classes share some technical characteristics. Starting in ''Splatoon 3'', brushes are classified as a separate class.

A promotional image for Splatoon 3 featuring an Octoling wielding the Octobrush, a weapon in the brush class.
Paintbrush redirects here. For the similarly-named main weapon, see Painbrush.

Brushes are one of the main weapon classes in the Splatoon series.

Broadly similar to rollers, brushes feature the same style of swinging the weapon to flick splashes of ink and the ability to push them along the ground while moving to create a trail of ink, although they possess less ink concentration and a much thinner trail respectively.

General mechanics

Taps of will allow quick side-to-side flicks of a brush, spreading globs of ink in a wide radius. If is held, the player can then proceed to push the brush in front of them while moving, creating an ink trail and dealing damage to enemies that contact the brush. Compared to rollers, all damage is considerably weaker across the board and leaves players incapable of a one-hit splat regardless of brush choice.

Classification

While brushes have been in the Splatoon series since Splatoon, games prior to Splatoon 3 classified them as rollers because the two classes share some technical characteristics. Starting in Splatoon 3, brushes are classified as a separate class.

List of brushes

Note: The series are arranged by their respective order in the weapon select screen with the Main filter.
