Sheldon's Introduction

If a Splat Charger is a sniper rifle at heart, then the Splat Charger CAM-O from Barazushi is a natural evolution. Its earthy tones and matte texture help it blend into the background. Here, it comes with the Sprinkler sub, which can be used to lure enemies out of hiding for easy splatting. Add the Crab Tank special, and you've got something, well, special. Overall, the loadout is a tactician's dream. I recommend it to any player who thinks of the battlefield like a chessboard.

The Splat Charger CAM-O is a weapon made for forest environments coming from Barazushi in the Splatlands Collection. Secure your turf and hold the line with the Sprinkler and Crab Tank.
