TODAY'S WRITEUP COURTESY OF u/rose94!!!
YEAHHHHH IT'S THE INKBRUSH NOUVEAU. I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS. WHO'S EXCITED?
[insert cricket noises]
Welp. Now, the inkbrush nouveau is not my favourite weapon, nor is it my main, yet it was the weapon I was most excited for. The reason I'm so excited is that of all my favourite weapons it is the least popular, it was also my first main so it's got a special place in my heart.
Now, with that context let me tell you THIS WEAPON IS A WALKING, SPLATTING FUN HOUSE. IT IS AN AMBUSH MACHINE, IT CAN MOTHERFUCKING DODGE, DUCK, DIP, DIVE, AND DODGE. IT MAY NOT HAVE THE STRONGEST KIT BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER IF NO ONE CAN KILL YOU. THIS WEAPON IS SO GOOD AT NOT DYING, THE END OF A MATCH WITH THIS WEAPON IS THE ONLY TIME YOU'LL BE PROUD TO SAY YOU HAVE THE SMALLEST D IN THE ROOM.
There is nothing more satisfying than moving around your opponent so swiftly that they can't aim at you long enough to splat yo- OH WAIT THERE IS IT'S PULLING OUT A BUBBLER WHEN THEY THINK THEY'VE FINALLY GOT YOU.
Now let's get down to some real talk.
This weapon is what I'd call an 'aggressive support' weapon. You don't want to be on the front lines but you can still wreak havoc from the back, and the best part is you can choose your preferred method!
You can run circles around everyone (this is great for distracting chargers) and leaving mines everywhere just to add to the frustration.
Or you could hide and swim around, ambushing everyone who comes your way.
Or you can be map control support, rushing to the front to pop your bubbler when it's ready.
Or you can mix and match! This weapon plays so differently depending on the person using it. If you like fast paced gameplay, and have decent reaction times, I highly suggest at least giving this weapon a go and seeing how you do with it.
And as always, keep up those finger stretches.
