The best weapon in Splatoon 2 is a bucket

It takes at least three hits with the tri-slosher to kill somebody from full health. Source: I tested it out in the weapons shop. The L3 Nozzlenose outranges it easily. You can two shot anybody with a medium range blaster without even landing a single hit. Bucket users get screwed over by that. Finally, the Splash-o-matic just barely outranges it, and comes with Splat Bombs to harass them from afar. With Sub-Saver, and Sub-Proficiency Up you can toss three splat bombs nearly consecutively from a full ink tank. Two splat bombs will kill anybody that is injured.

Counter-source: just watch the video goddammit... it's 2HKO like 99% of the time, as any Slosher's ever been.

I always thought Sloshers as a whole were the best weapons in the game since Splatoon 1, but yeah, Tri-Slosher is just dumb. I gave it a shot earlier today and was amazed at how even though I was playing like crap and not even paying attention it was so easy to get a ton of splats and turf coverage. Besides having Burst Bomb and Ink Armor really doesn't help as those are some of the best sub/specials in the game and complement the Tri-Slosher pretty well too.

Really, whoever says this weapon isn't OP is just in denial. All you have to do is look at the top ranked teams in league battles... it says it all, really.

I watched the video, and realized that I was tossing from above. It does 2 hit kill. I still gotta say I love the L3 nozzlenose because it outranges them though. I agree that Tri-Slosher needs a nerf after watching the video. Too much damage on equal levels and too good of a kit overall.
