The Sploosh-o-matic 7 is a Shooter Main Weapon in Splatoon. It was released on June 8th, 2016 as part of Sheldon's Picks Volume 2.

Description

This weapon is a fast-firing, low-accuracy shooter. It has a steampunk-style look, similar to its cousin, the Splash-o-matic. Due to its high attack power, it excels in short range combat. The Sploosh-o-matic 7 comes in a set with Splat Bombs and the Inkzooka.

Sheldon's Introduction "The Sploosh-o-matic 7 retains the stats of the original model while adding more strategic options. Splat Bombs combined with an Inkzooka enable you to pressure opponents at both middle and long range. In fact, this weapon has so many uses, I bet it could even make your bed or do your laundry! (Not a guarantee.) (NA/EU/OC)"

Competitive Viability

The Sploosh 7 is not an easy weapon to use competitively by any means. The kit is so offensively designed, yet the range is so abysmal there is not much that can be done to get kills. The Splat Bomb sub pressures enemies, but the range makes it hard for pressured opponents to be taken out. The Inkzooka special sounds perfect for the Sploosh 7, but it is a challenge for the 7 to build one up due to, once again, weak range, making it harder to turf more. The Sploosh 7 is probably better offensively than the Sploosh-o-matic is supportive, so it gets the advantage there, but it's still not good at all, and will be hard to use in competitive play.

Recommended Abilities

The Ninja Squid ability conceals any sign of swimming in ink on horizontal surfaces, allowing the users of shooters with shorter range to advance and ambush foes without being detected.

The Cold Blooded ability will reduce the amount of time the player is tracked by Echolocator and point sensors by 25%. This can help the player stay hidden while ambushing foes.

The Sploosh-o-Matic comes with squid beakons as it's sub weapon. Quick Super Jump will reduce the amount times it takes to super jump to a beakon, allowing the player to get back into position quickly.

The Quick Respawn ability shortens the player's respawn time after being splatted. As a short range shooter, the Sploosh-o-Matic will sometimes result in the player being splatted at the same time they splat the enemy. Quick Respawn also helps support a more aggressive playstyle.
