Splashdown
The Splashdown is a special weapon in Splatoon 2.
Splatoon 2
An Inkling using it strikes the ground with heavy force, causing an ink explosion around them. Using it on the ground will cause the player to jump up with a short delay, but it can also be used from the air or during a Super Jump. If the player is splatted while in the air, they will only get a 25% special penalty (40% if opponent has Respawn Punisher or Haunt).
A player using Splashdown is briefly vulnerable to attacks. Similar to Ink Armor, the player can be splatted before the activation animation is finished. The weapon is more effective in the air, while the Inkling is Super Jumping. A radius displays when the Splashdown is used; this radius indicates the weapon's one-hit-splat range. Opponents just outside this area will still take significant damage.
In Salmon Run, the Splashdown's range is always the same range when using a Super Jump.
