Tri-Slosher Nouveau

The Tri-Slosher Nouveau is a main weapon in the Splatoon series. It is the Nouveau-branded version of the Tri-Slosher with a different loadout.

Appearance

The Tri-Slosher Nouveau is nearly identical in appearance to the Tri-Slosher. The only difference between the two is that the Tri-Slosher Nouveau has a sticker bearing the Nouveau logo on the side of the bucket.

In Splatoon 3, the bucket itself is based on it's base variant's redesign, and the handle is light blue.

Quotes

Sheldon's Introduction The Tri-Slosher Nouveau is a special version of the Tri-Slosher adorned with an exclusive sticker! Combined with the main weapon, the time-delayed explosions of the Splat Bombs allow for maximum ink coverage! You can use the Ink Storm special to make opponents scatter or stop in their tracks. The perfect set for the real team players out there!

“

You can finally cross this off your bucket list: research indicates that the Tri-Slosher Nouveau will be available tonight. This weapon has the same stats as the Tri-Slosher, but comes with an exclusive sticker (and looks rather smashing if I do say so myself). This kit also comes with Splat Bombs and the Ink Storm special... two ways to make your opponents scatter. It's a great kit for those who love being a team player.

The Tri-Slosher Nouveau returns in Splatoon 3. It functions the same as the normal Tri-Slosher, but has a different kit and appearance. It has a Nouveau sticker on the side and a light blue handle rather than the traditional yellow one. The kit is Fizzy Bomb and Tacticooler. The weapon was teased in the Fresh Season 2023 poster shown on February 16, 2023 and was officially revealed on February 23, 2023. It released on February 28, 2023.

Data

• The Tri-Slosher Nouveau is a lightweight weapon.
• The matchmaking range is 11. 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 of 6% per shot allows the user to fire 16 times on a full ink tank.

• After firing, there is a 35 frame cooldown before ink starts refilling.

• When initially attacking in humanoid form, the first shot takes 12 frames to come out.

• When initially attacking from swim form, the first shot takes 18 frames to come out.

• The movement speed while firing is set to 0.066 units per frame.

• The time between consecutive swings is 23 frames.

• The interval between firing and being able to enter swim form or use a sub weapon is 20 frames.

• The effective range is about 10.14 units while grounded and 9.55 while airborne.
  • This is the distance in which the crosshair will change shape when looking at an opponent and is otherwise arbitrary since sloshers do not use traditional falloff mechanics.

Far central ink glob

• The group contains 4 projectiles that spawn consecutively 1 frame apart from each other.
• The group starts spawning as soon as the lifting animation ends.
• The first projectile spawns with an initial speed of 1.2229 units per frame while grounded, and 1.1523 units per frame while airborne. It flies straight at this speed for 3 frames.
  • After this, the velocity is set to 10.0 units per frame if it is not already below this number, and decreases by 10% every frame, including the first frame in which it stops flying straight. Once the shot velocity decreases below a certain threshold, it will begin to be slowed more and fall faster.
  • Each subsequent projectile spawns with an initial speed that is 0.16 units per frame slower than the last.
• The projectiles deal 62 damage.
  • Damage falloff starts when a projectile falls 1.5 units below its initial spawning point. It will lose damage the further it falls until it has fallen to 8.0 units below its spawning point, at which point it will deal 35 damage.
• The first projectile spawns with an initial collision radius of 0.09 units for players and 0.07 units for the stage. After 5 frames, the collision radius for players changes to 0.9 units, and after 4 frames, the collision radius for the stage changes to 0.7 units.
  • For subsequent projectiles, the initial collision radius is 0.01 units smaller than the previous projectile for players, and 0.01 units smaller for the stage. After the collision size changes, the radius is 0.1 units smaller than the previous projectile for players, and 0.1 units smaller for the stage.

Close central ink glob

• The group contains 3 projectiles that spawn consecutively 2 frames apart from each other.
• The group starts spawning 2 frames after the lifting animation ends.
• The first projectile spawns with an initial speed of 0.896 units per frame while grounded, and 0.808 units per frame while airborne. It flies straight at this speed for 3 frames.
  • After this, the velocity is set to 10.0 units per frame if it is not already below this number, and decreases by 10% every frame, including the first frame in which it stops flying straight. Once the shot velocity decreases below a certain threshold, it will begin to be slowed more and fall faster.
  • Each subsequent projectile spawns with an initial speed that is 0.25 units per frame slower than the last.
• The projectiles deal 62 damage.
  • Damage falloff starts when a projectile falls 1.5 units below its initial spawning point. It will lose damage the further it falls until it has fallen to 8.0 units below its spawning point, at which point it will deal 35 damage.
• The first projectile spawns with an initial collision radius of 0.08 units for players and 0.07 units for the stage. After 5 frames, the collision radius for players changes to 0.8 units, and after 4 frames, the collision radius for the stage changes to 0.7 units.
  • For subsequent projectiles, the initial collision radius is 0.01 units smaller than the previous projectile for players, and 0.01 units smaller for the stage. After the collision size changes, the radius is 0.1 units smaller than the previous projectile for players, and 0.1 units smaller for the stage.

Side ink globs

• The group consists of only 1 projectile.
• The group starts spawning 3 frames after the lifting animation ends.
• The group spawns at a 15.0 degree angle off of the center.
• The projectile spawns with an initial speed of 0.897 units per frame while grounded, and 0.836 units per frame while airborne. It flies straight at this speed for 3 frames.
  • After this, the velocity is set to 10.0 units per frame if it is not already below this number, and decreases by 10% every frame, including the first frame in which it stops flying straight. Once the shot velocity decreases below a certain threshold, it will begin to be slowed more and fall faster.

• The projectile deals 62 damage.
  • Damage falloff starts when a projectile falls 1.5 units below its initial spawning point. It will lose damage the further it falls until it has fallen to 8.0 units below its spawning point, at which point it will deal 35 damage.
• The projectile spawns with an initial collision radius of 0.07 units for players and 0.05 units for the stage. After 5 frames, the collision radius for players changes to 0.7 units, and after 4 frames, the collision radius for the stage changes to 0.5 units.

Quotes

Sheldon's Introduction The Tri-Slosher Nouveau is a special version of the Tri-Slosher that includes an exclusive sticker! And if the sticker isn't selling it, let me tell you about the loadout... First up, you get Fizzy Bombs, enabling you to close the distance between you and your opponents quickly. If you've used sloshers before, you already know that close equals splat! And you can amp up the mobility even more with the Tacticooler! Now you're gliding around the map like a manta ray with rocket boosters, and your teammates are getting a boost too. Don't even get me started on the ink coverage. It's also great! So I hope you give this set a try. It can really turn the tide in battle!

“

SRL Ballistics again with a video of the Tri-Slosher Nouveau! The design is new—look at that handle—but it's the same classic Tri-Slosher. This model comes with Fizzy Bombs to lay down a welcome mat of ink to enemy territory and the Tacticooler for refreshments on the way.

Trivia

• Early datamining of Splatoon 2 showed that the Tri-Slosher Nouveau was meant to have Autobomb Launcher as its special, and the icon for this special was also found. The data miners even recorded footage of it in action on the test range. However, it was later changed to have the Ink Storm, and the Autobomb Launcher was instead released with the Carbon Roller Deco and Light Tetra Dualies.

Etymology

Tri-Slosher Nouveau is derived from the verb to slosh, Tri, a shortening meaning Three, and Nouveau, french for New. Nouveau may also refer to Art Nouveau. The suffix Nouveau is also used to differentiate it from the Tri-Slosher. This trait is shared among the other alternate sets of the Nouveau brand.

ヒッセン・ヒュー Hissen Hyū means Brush Washer Hue. 筆洗 Hissen are segmented buckets that are used for cleaning paintbrushes. ヒュー Hyū refers to hue. Like Nouveau in the English name, Hue is used to differentiate it from the Tri-Slosher.
