{{SheldonsIntroduction|The '''Splattershot Jr.''' is the classic entry-level Turf War weapon! It's a great companion for learning the basics of battle. It has a great rate of fire and efficient in use to boot. Plus it sprays ink so wildly you're bound to hit something! [[Splat Bomb]]s are super effective at smoking out hidden opponents and clearing your path! And the [[Ink Armor]] special is great for support, making this set an excellent choice for players who appreciate balance!}}
