AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S TIME FOR ANOTHER u/ROSE94 CAMEO

YOU CAN'T SEE HER

HER TIME IS NOW

I love this weapon so much I don't know what to write about it. I wanna make jokes and get hype but this weapon is so amazing to me that I can't be anything but heartfelt.

This is the weapon for me. It's my highest inked, easily the weapon I'm best with, and used to be my one and only main, a title which it now shares with the nouveau version.

The Octobrush itself is an amazing close combat weapon, able to consistently 2HKO opponents with some damage up. It also has good mobility, allowing it to get in range of opponents while maneuvering through their shots. And finally, it's wide spread of ink while flinging make it easy to take out opponents and to lay down your own ink to hide in and bag some ambush kills.

The kit that comes with the vanilla brush allows it to be a low-risk, high-reward combatant. Beacons, if set up correctly, make trades or just deaths in general a small deal as you can jump right back to the action safely, while also providing support for your team. And the panic kraken allows you to turn the tables when the enemy is putting pressure on you.

I don't want to get too much further into the play style of this weapon for fear I'll turn this write up into a guide, there's already plenty of amazing stuff to go around (I'll be linking some in the comments), and also because, as with the other brushes there isn't really one way to play it. All the Ocotbrush mains/users I know have a lot in common but also all bring something totally unique to the weapon and no one plays it quite like anyone else.

So if you're thinking of giving the brush a go, go for it! Pick it up and just mess around with it, chances are once you've found a way to play it that you enjoy you'll be the first person to use it that way.

And hey, this time you don't need to stretch your fingers so much because you don't need to mash ZR anywhere near as fast!
