Sheldon's Introduction
As you can likely guess, the Rapid Blaster Deco is just a Rapid Blaster that's been, well, decorated!
This version comes with Suction Bombs, which are great for forcing sneaky foes out into the open.
And with the Bomb Rush special, you'll be able to toss those bombs to your heart's content!

“ | A decorated version of the Rapid Blaster. Its sub weapon can scatter opponents, and its special lets you maximize that potential. A great set for staving off aggressive foes. | ” | — In-Game Description
|
“ | This weapon has lower damage output and impact size than most of the other blasters. But the combination of Suction Bombs and Bomb Rush presents some enticing offensive and defensive opportunities, allowing you to scatter these explosive devices over a wide area. Equip the Ink Saver (Sub) and Defense Up abilities and use Suction Bombs to keep opponents away from you. | ” | — Splatoon Prima Guide

Sheldon's Introduction
The Rapid Blaster Deco is a cool, decorated version of the Rapid Blaster. Not that the original isn't cool! You'll have to decide for yourself which one you like better. Maybe the overall loadout will help you make the choice! This one comes with the Torpedo sub to help make up for the main weapon's somewhat low attack power. And for those moments when you want to breach the front lines, you've got the Inkjet special! Not a bad little surprise to keep in your back pocket. This is a versatile set that can really shine with the right user, so I hope you get a chance to try it out! |
“ | Next, the Rapid Blaster Deco, a cosmetic twist on the original Rapid Blaster. Combined with the Torpedo sub, this weapon allows you to take the initiative and engage enemies from afar. And if you're about to be cornered? Simply fire up the Ink Jet special to reach higher ground! | ” | — @SplatoonNA on Twitter[5]
