The '''S-BLAST '92''' is an upcoming weapon in {{S3}}.  
The '''S-BLAST '92''' is a [[main weapon]] in {{S3}}.


==Appearance==
==Appearance==
The S-BLAST '92 bears a very strong resemblance to the original North American [[wikipedia:Super_Scope|Super Scope]], an accessory for the [[wikipedia:Super_Nintendo_Entertainment_System|Super Nintendo Entertainment System]], which was released in 1992. The body consists of a wide barrel, with the back and most of the top being light gray, while the front and bottom side are dark gray, as well as a vermilion tip at the end, with a dark-gray scope mounted in the middle and a sight at the end of the barrel. The body is connected to a dark-gray handle with an off-black trigger in the middle and a dark-gray shoulder mount on the back. A decal with the words "SUPER SCOPE" is printed on one side, and, like the decals on the [[N-ZAP]], is in English rather than the [[Language in the Splatoon series|Inkling language]].
Firing a grounded shot will briefly emit a visible red laser from the lens of the S-BLAST '92's scope. The laser flickers slightly before deactivating.


It is similar to the Super Scope, but is wider at the end, and appears to be a dark gray.

===Quotes===
{{SheldonsIntroduction|game=Splatoon 3|The '''S-BLAST '92''' is an exciting new [[Blaster (weapon class)|blaster]] that's equipped with two distinct [[ink]]-firing mechanisms. You'll switch between the two on the fly based on your movements! When firing normally, this is a [[weapon]] with balanced accuracy, range, and power. It won't overwhelm anyone with sheer force, but I think you'll hit the target more often than not. However, when you fire while jumping, this weapon transforms into a heavy-duty powerhouse, launching large blasts of ink that explode nearby. It's a whole different beast! Keep in mind that the range will dip in this mode, but you've got the [[Sprinkler]] [[Sub weapon|sub]] and [[Reefslider]] [[Special weapon|special]] to more than make up the difference. Will you be one of the first to master this unique new weapon? Why not? Give it a try!}}

S-BLAST '92 is a shortened form of the Super Scope controller that was released in 1992, where the ‘92 comes from, and additionally, BLAST is short for Blaster, which is what the weapon class is.

The S-BLAST '92 is a main weapon in Splatoon 3.

Appearance

The S-BLAST '92 bears a very strong resemblance to the original North American Super Scope, an accessory for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, which was released in 1992. The body consists of a wide barrel, with the back and most of the top being light gray, while the front and bottom side are dark gray, as well as a vermilion tip at the end, with a dark-gray scope mounted in the middle and a sight at the end of the barrel. The body is connected to a dark-gray handle with an off-black trigger in the middle and a dark-gray shoulder mount on the back. A decal with the words "SUPER SCOPE" is printed on one side, and, like the decals on the N-ZAP, is in English rather than the Inkling language.

Firing a grounded shot will briefly emit a visible red laser from the lens of the S-BLAST '92's scope. The laser flickers slightly before deactivating.

The S-BLAST '92 was revealed on 16 May 2023 in the Sizzle Season 2023 trailer. After jumping, the S-BLAST '92 shoots only half as far as it normally would otherwise, with a much larger blast radius.[1] This range is the same as that of the Luna Blaster, while the grounded shot has the same range as that of the Range Blaster[2], with the smallest blast radius of any blaster. On 17 May 2023, Nintendo uploaded a dedicated Twitter post showcasing gameplay from the S-BLAST '92, confirming the weapon's kit to be Sprinkler and Reefslider.

Data

  • The S-BLAST '92 is a middleweight weapon.
  • The matchmaking range is 16.5. The game's matchmaking system looks at a team's average matchmaking range value, and matches them against a team with a similar average.
  • The ink consumption is 8.5% per shot, allowing the user to fire 11 shots on a full ink tank.
  • When firing continuously, it shoots a bullet every 60 frames (1 shot per second).
  • When firing from humanoid form, the first shot takes 14 frames to come out. When firing from swim form, the first shot takes 24 frames to come out.
  • The interval between firing the weapon and being able to enter swim form or use a sub weapon is 23 frames.
  • When firing while moving, the player's movement speed is set to 0.04 units per frame.
  • After firing, there is a 60 frame cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.

Grounded Shot

  • The damage on direct hit is 125.
  • Targets within 1.0 units of the explosion center always take 70 damage. Targets outside of this radius but inside the full blast radius of 2.0 units will take between 70 and 50 damage, depending on how close to the center they are.
  • The bullet hitbox for collisions with players has a radius of 0.2 units.
  • The bullet hitbox for collisions with the environment has a radius of 0.2 units.
  • Shots cannot ever deviate from the inner reticle.
  • Shots initially travel straight at a rate of 1.7 units per frame for 7 frames. Shots travel straight for 11.9 distance units.
    • After that, the shot's velocity is set to 1.65 units per frame if it is not already lower than the listed value, and it loses 36% of its speed every frame (including the first frame after it stops traveling straight). Once the shot velocity decreases below a certain threshold, it will begin to be slowed less and fall faster.
  • The bullet explodes 11 frames after being fired, covering a total distance of about 14.34 units.
    • This number may vary at different firing angles.

Jump Shot

  • The damage on direct hit is 125.
  • Targets within 1.0 units of the explosion center always take 70 damage. Targets outside of this radius but inside the full blast radius of 4.0 units will take between 70 and 50 damage, depending on how close to the center they are.
  • The bullet hitbox for collisions with players has a radius of 0.2 units.
  • The bullet hitbox for collisions with the environment has a radius of 0.2 units.
  • The angle its shots can deviate is 8.0 degrees.
  • The shot has a 50% chance to shoot towards the outer reticle instead of the inner reticle.
  • Shots initially travel straight at a rate of 0.92 units per frame for 7 frames. Shots travel straight for 6.44 distance units.
    • After that, the shot's velocity is set to 0.9 units per frame if it is not already lower than the listed value, and it loses 36% of its speed every frame (including the first frame after it stops traveling straight). Once the shot velocity decreases below a certain threshold, it will begin to be slowed less and fall faster.
  • The bullet explodes 11 frames after being fired, covering a total distance of about 7.77 units.
    • This number may vary at different firing angles.

 Sheldon's Introduction

The S-BLAST '92 is an exciting new blaster that's equipped with two distinct ink-firing mechanisms. You'll switch between the two on the fly based on your movements! When firing normally, this is a weapon with balanced accuracy, range, and power. It won't overwhelm anyone with sheer force, but I think you'll hit the target more often than not. However, when you fire while jumping, this weapon transforms into a heavy-duty powerhouse, launching large blasts of ink that explode nearby. It's a whole different beast! Keep in mind that the range will dip in this mode, but you've got the Sprinkler sub and Reefslider special to more than make up the difference. Will you be one of the first to master this unique new weapon? Why not? Give it a try!

“ SRL Ballistics here. Wooo! It's good to be back. And we are SO BACK with exclusive imagery of the new S-BLAST '92. What a weapon. This baby has two firing modes - one designed for precision and range, and the other designed for EXCUSE ME and KA-SPLOOSH!

Sorry - we're just so excited. Check out this video of the S-BLAST '92 in action. No batteries required! And note that jumping while firing is how you activate the shorter-range firing mode with bigger blasts. Keep your feet on the ground to hit faraway targets with precision.
