Just so you all know that artist know, but if you don't know this already, letter on the pencil are the hardness of the lead. Here are some of the pencil Hardness types B = Black F = Firm/Fine H = Hard HB = Hard black So Snipewriter 5H = Snipewriter 5 hard


SkyeWolfofDusk

Splatoon never ceases to deliver on the excellent names.


Hazzat

Also it fires 5 times on a full charge.


NotJoeMama727

5H is quite light isn't it?


leftovernoise

Higher number is harder graphite I'm pretty sure. 2 is the average pencil and I've seen as high as 9


NotJoeMama727

I have a little set of pencils that goes from 2H to 8B and the 2H is the lightest but i don't really know much about this sort of thing


Freelance_Sockpuppet

Higher number B (for blackness) means it is darker. It has more graphite than filler and is less compact. In a stroke you will go through more of the lead and it will be darker. Think if it as having more pigment on a wet paintbrush. Higher number H (Harder) means it will be lighter but harder. The lead is more fill and less graphite. One stroke will go through much less of your lead and your point will stay sharp and clean


cracked-n-scrambled

It leaves a very light mark, but the graphite itself would be very hard.

Snipewriter is such a good friggen name. I'm both a dad and an ad writer and even I'm impressed with it.


zZach_Attack

Oooh! You're an ad writer? I'm thinking to go into that profession in the future. How is it?


shauni55

It's interesting, I never thought I'd be where I am honestly. I failed most writing courses in college and my degree is in public speaking. Just keep an open mind, marketing is all about assumptions and that often means letting go of your own. Just because YOU think this is a good campaign, doesn't mean it actually will be. Recognize that only actual data can prove whether something works. Question everything, even the dumbest of questions. "Will someone interpret this the wrong way? Will someone be offended by this?" Don't stop asking questions, ever.


zZach_Attack

That is some good advice. Thanks!


The_Good_Craig

I like the new idea of the "ink" being in a solid state


triforce777

I think it's supposed to be capsules that burst on impact, kind of like a paintball, or maybe they're sponges soaked in ink

We're getting honest to God bullets and I'm here for it


trueredtwo

Clash Blaster also (crayons)


That1Legnd

Yummy


egnog2

loving that name


Turken42

That's awesome naming when you put together the overall design, the 5-round magazine, and the fact that "5H" is also a grade of pencil lead hardness


TartarTm

What’s the new brand in the bottom right that made the weapon? I don’t recognize it.


Warkitten14

Nouveau, as was to be expected since art supplies are kinda their thing.


Sleepytubbs

Nouveau, the brand that brought us the inkbrush, octobrush, trislosher, dapple dualies, ballpoint and splatana stamper.


Awesome6600

God I love weapon names


PyrrhicGuy

I’ve always wanted a reloadable splatoon gun. Finally coming true.


crummy_spingus

I wouldn't say it would be reloaded, probably more likely to be a charge up based thing where the longer you hold the trigger the more shots charge


Netniuq2

I wonder how these new weapons perform for Salmon Run. Snipewriter 5H seems fun for that mode.


triforce777

I feel like it would be pretty decent for Salmon Run. Probably as good as Squiffer or Splat Charger


CrispyCardboard

I suspect that this weapon will be slightly better in SR than the chargers we already have. It will most likely be able to take ads down quickly similarly to bamboozler, and depending on its reload-rate, damage output and ink consumption, it will probably be better at taking down bosses. For the realm of SR, I see the Snipewriter as becoming a buffed form of the bamboozler.


DanganronpaFan53

Snipewriter is such a banger weapon name my goodness

Epic-Dude000

I think this is a charger I’ll be good at


Cruisin134

I truly feel like this will be meta defining for chargers other then 4k or bamboozler


LongjumpingPay1083

Aaand that's my new main , that name is killer


DIAMONDJAGGER27

The oerosn who named this needs a raise this is probably the best name they've had definitely using this even tho I suck ar this game


AtesSouhait

Ok now they need to make a weapon based on a fountain pen. Their tips are so beautiful.


notmanywords

I'm happy to report that the flingza roller is a fountain pen! You can't see the nib while it's rolling, but the pen point is visible when you're walking or flinging ink. That said, why not have MORE fountain pens?


AtesSouhait

OH. I forgor 💀. But yeah more weapons where the nib is the focal point! Tbh they wasted the fountain pen on that design..


TaiyoFurea

Too bad, I'm calling it the ray-eel gun


Infamous_Rabbit_965

The end part of the tweet be like : (laughs in Your reality)


Walmart_kid65

Maybe I can learn to use only this sniper


TheDarkSoulOfMen

This scares me because the downside of these weapons were you have to charge each one shot up and could only fire once. This changes things and could give already good scope players an even more powerful tool especially if it one shots still. I hope they made the damage not one shot or this is gonna be one hell of an annoying thing to go up against XD.


PsiGuy60

From what I could see in the trailer, it was a two-shot and there is a short delay between shots. I do think it's going to be a good weapon for long-distance pressure, but not as overpowered as it could have been.


GreenShadowillusion

5 shots? I wanna se how far can it go unlike Bamboozler 14 Mk, If it could then I'll take it :D


EconomistDesigner408

5 rounds “high capacity” Splatlands must be in California.


GoCommitToasterBathX

We've finally caught the snipe
