The Sprinkler is a sub weapon in Splatoon and Splatoon 2.
Splatoon
Category | Sub |
Base damage | 30 |
Base duration | ∞ (Sprinkler got destroyed, Player got splatted, Player placed another Sprinkler) |
Ink consumption | 70% |
The Sprinkler continually sprays ink in a circular ring around itself in a staggering motion, firing off ink droplets every six frames until it is broken by enemy fire or it once the player who placed it gets splatted. It can be thrown onto virtually any surface, including ones that are upside-down. If the user throws another Sprinkler with one already in use, the first one will automatically break. Sprinklers have an infinite duration unless they are destroyed, replaced, or the owner of said Sprinkler is splatted.
Use
- The most effective spots for Sprinklers are those that are hard to see or reach. These include on top of boxes, sideways on walls, or on objects over the stage.
- Exploring stages in Recon mode makes it easy to find strategic locations for Sprinklers without the pressure of a battle.
- Putting a Sprinkler directly at one's feet can allow a chance to react should an enemy launch a sneak attack.
- Sprinklers placed on or near the Tower in Tower Control can provide some cover for the user and their allies.
- Like Squid Beakons, Sprinklers can be used as light shields in a pinch, taking some damage in place of the user.
- Also like Beakons, Sprinklers work as bait to attract players and ambush them while reaching to destroy the Sprinkler.
- Even when not used as shields, the attention drawn by an unguarded Sprinkler can be used to one's advantage for an ambush or escape.
- One should avoid getting too close to enemy Sprinklers - while their damage is low, multiple hits can be dangerous.
- A Sprinkler may be bait, especially if stuck to a high wall or ceiling. It would be wise to keep an eye on one's surroundings when destroying it.

Base duration | High-power: 5.5s Mid-power: 16s |
Ink consumption | 60% |
The Sprinkler was tweaked in Splatoon 2 to have its inking power start out stronger but weaken over time. There are four distinct phases:
- Deployment phase: This phase starts when the Sprinkler lands on the ground and ends when it fires its first drop of ink. This phase lasts one second.
- High-power phase: The Sprinkler spins the fastest and has the most inking power during this phase. It fires ink droplets every four frames and rotates 33 degrees per frame. It lasts 5.5 seconds.
- Mid-power phase: The Sprinkler slows down and inks less in this phase. It fires ink droplets every four frames and rotates eleven degrees per frame. It lasts sixteen seconds.
- Low-power phase: The Sprinkler slows down even further, with very low ink output and range. It fires ink droplets every ten frames and rotates one degree per frame. This phase lasts for the remaining lifetime of the Sprinkler.
The Sprinkler has 120 HP. Object Shredder multiplies the damage done against Sprinklers by ten.
