The S-BLAST '92 is a mid-range blaster with high splatting potential whose main strength is having two distinct firing modes with very different characteristics.

Use

The S-BLAST '92 has two firing modes: a mid-range mode with high accuracy and projectile speed and a smaller blast radius than all other blasters, as well as a short-range mode with low accuracy and the largest blast radius of any blaster except for the Clash Blaster.

• To activate the mid-range mode, press while grounded.
  • It is possible to jump and shoot with the mid-range mode. This is done by first pressing and then pressing quickly afterwards. Unlike all other blasters, this comes with the upside of perfect accuracy while in the air, allowing for greater mobility overall while retaining the same accuracy. This should be the most common way to use the mid-range mode, as the weapon's mobility while grounded is very poor.
• To activate the short-range mode, press to jump and then press while airborne.
  • Simply being airborne is not enough to trigger the short-range mode. The player has to press the button in order to change firing modes. It is important to note that it is possible to fire the short-range mode while grounded by first pressing and then just before landing, but there is little utility in doing so, since, unlike all other blasters, the short-range mode's accuracy doesn't increase when descending at the end of a jump.

Synergy

One of S-BLAST '92's largest weaknesses is that it cannot paint for itself effectively, despite playing a front-line Slayer role. This limited mobility makes S-BLAST very vulnerable to being trapped and killed by opposing long-range weapons. This can be balanced out by pairing S-BLAST with a weapon with good turfing capabilities, which not only provides paint support for the S-BLAST player, but general increased ink coverage to balance S-BLAST's limited turfing. Good options can include most Shooters and Splatlings.
