Splatana
Splatanas are one of the main weapon classes in Splatoon 3.
Splatanas are sword-like weapons that send blades of ink flying with each swing of the weapon, which is done by pressing the button. Swings after holding the button become charged slashes. Regular slashes fire a horizontal projectile, while charged slashes fire a vertical one.
Splatanas were first introduced in Splatoon 3.
List of splatanas
Note: The series are arranged by the order of their respective Tableturf Battle cards.
Series | Description | Variants | Games |
---|---|---|---|
Splatana Stamper |
A heavier Splatana compared to the standard. It has a slower rate of fire, but its ink projectiles are wider, travel further, and deal more damage. | Splatana Stamper | ✓ |
Splatana Wiper |
The standard Splatana. When the button is tapped, it performs a quick slash that fires a fast-moving ink-trailing projectile. When charged up, it performs a stronger vertical slash. If the charge is released while moving forward, the user will lunge forward a short distance before firing. | Splatana Wiper | ✓ |

Quotes
“ | SRL back and fully recovered from our wild day of tweeting with new research on splatana-type weapons. These swordlike implements can fire a horizontal slash of ink quickly or charge up to fire a powerful vertical blast. You can use both moves to slice and dice the competition! | ” | — @SplatoonNA on Twitter[1]
