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

Brushes have two attack modes: by repeatedly pressing , the player will swing their brush and sprinkle ink globs that spread forwards, inking the surface; by holding and moving, the player will instead push the brush on the ground, similar to roller weapons, but much faster and covering less area. While the first attack mode is effective for inking the stage and splatting opponents, the latter is more useful for moving within enemy ink, chasing or escaping enemies, or encircling them to trap and easily splat them.

Classification

While brush weapons have been in the Splatoon series since the first game, games prior to Splatoon 3 classified them as rollers as they share some technical characteristics with traditional rollers. Since Splatoon 3, brushes are classified separate from traditional rollers.

List of brushes

Note: The series are arranged by the order of their respective Tableturf Battle cards.

Quotes

“ Squid Research Lab here, ready to brush up on brushes! Hold while using a brush to sprint at a tremendous speed and lay down a tactical ribbon of ink. You can also use rapid-fire brush swings to turn an opponent's face into the kind of abstract art that's worth millions! ”

Trivia

  • There are no brushes with Point Sensor, Toxic Mist, Fizzy Bomb, or Disruptor as their sub weapon.
  • Brushes are not affected by Run Speed Up while pushing them on the ground.
    • However, brush users are affected by the ability while running, flicking or doing both things.
  • Against Salmonids, the Inkbrush has more DPS (damage per second) when running with the brush on the ground, while the Octobrush has more DPS when flinging ink.
  • Brushes have the fewest weapons of any class, with only five in Splatoon and seven in Splatoon 2.
  • In Splatoon 2, brushes are the only class in which all of the members have a third variant (even though there are only two of them).
  • Brushes are the only weapon class from Splatoon to have no new members introduced in Splatoon 2.
