The Dualie Squelchers are a main weapon in Splatoon 2. It was released on 29 July 2017 at 02:00 UTC.[1] They are a reimagining of the Dual Squelcher from Splatoon; if the player performs a dodge roll, their character holds the Dualie Squelchers together, effectively converting them into the Dual Squelcher. The weapon's accuracy is improved in this post-roll state.

Compared to the Splat Dualies, the Dualie Squelchers have a slightly faster roll and are not locked into place, but suffer from an overall reduced firing rates and no fire rate increase after rolling. They have the most range of any dualies-type weapon in the game. Shots do enough damage to splat opponents with four hits.

Sheldon's Introduction

The Dualie Squelchers are dualie versions of the Jet Squelcher. They feature an exceptional combination of highly accurate rapid fire after rolling, with longish range! You can pinpoint your opponents' positions with the Point Sensor and Tenta Missiles, making you a real nuisance to the enemy team! And you can dodge-roll away from opponents who get close! I recommend them for nimble fighters who want to support their team!

Trivia

  • The way the player holds the Dualie Squelchers after performing a dodge roll makes then appear nearly identical to the Dual Squelcher.
  • The fact that the Dualie Squelchers appear to be the Dual Squelcher, but split in two, is supported by the fact that it is the only asymmetrical design of the Dualie class, like that the top half and bottom half of the Dual Squelcher do not have reflectional symmetry.
  • The appearance of the weapon is highly reminiscent of power drills.
  • The Dualie Squelchers are unique in the fact that you can move immediately after a dodge roll. And no less unique, the use of a jump immediately after performing the first dodge roll.
  • When coming out of the dodge-roll stance, the Dualie Squelchers make a click sound when they separate.
