Trivia

  • Prior to version 2.6.0, players could only throw a single Splat Bomb, Suction Bomb or Sprinkler, no matter how much Ink Saver (Sub) was stacked. Latter to 2.6.0, it is possible to throw 2 bombs by stacking 3 mains and 2 subs of Ink Saver Sub.
  • Prior to version 2.7.0 it was possible to throw out not only 4 Burst Bombs, but also 5 or 6, depending on how much Ink Saver Sub was stacked. Latter to 2.7.0, it will not be possible to throw out more than 3 Burst Bombs without having to refill.
