The Jet Squelcher is a pretty rare weapon to be used among competitive play. The reason for this is certainly because of the existence of the [[Custom Jet Squelcher]]. The Jet has the benefit of having the longest range for any shooter, which is nice, but the weak damage and very low fire rate makes it much less significant. The [[Splash Wall]] sub is good, but not really necessary, because the one good thing the jet can do is wall people out with its high range. [[Inkstrike]] is a weak special, and the custom jet's sub and special make it the much stronger choice. Because of this, while not necessarily awful, the Jet gets almost no use in competitive play. | |||

Sheldon's Introduction
The Jet Squelcher' has the top range of any rapid-fire weapon, approaching that of the charger weapons. It sacrifices attack power, though, so focus on hiding behind your Splash Wall and charging up the Inkstrike! It's best for fighters who know how to strike at the most opportune moment! (NA)[a] |

The Jet Squelcher' has the top range of any Shooter-type weapon, approaching that of Charger-types. It sacrifices attack power, though, so focus on hiding behind your Splash Wall and charging up the Inkstrike! It's best suited to fighters who know how to hold back before striking at the most opportune moment! (EU/OC)[b] |
Notes
| “ | The Jet Squelcher’s long-range capability is its greatest strength. This weapon allows you engage distant targets without using a charger. With Splash Wall and Inkstrike, this allows you to stay far away from the action and still make meaningful contributions to battles. Splash Wall can be used to trap people in corridors or block ramps to key areas. Consider using the Ink Saver (Main) ability, as only one Splash Wall can be deployed at a time. | ” |
