What is your favorite primary weapon in Splatoon Global Testfire so far?

Mine would have to be the Splat Roller.

The game is about area control, and the fact that the Splat Roller is the most efficent at painting the area easily makes it my favorite.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Roller, easily.



Roller is the easiest to get to grips with although I like the charger more, both weapons are better then each other in the opposing modes.



I prefer the Splattershot. I find it more enjoyable shooting like crazy instead of rolling around with the roller. 



I ended up using the Splattershot Jr. the most, just liked it the most for combat.

It's very fun to paint with the roller because it covers so much area. However the splattershot or splattershot jr can also a lot of area if used well and it's very satisfying killing rollers!

For now I say Splattershot Jr

can't handle the charger very well though...

I SUCK at the charge. Everything else I at least go positive and can cover some ground. Will definitely have to work on charge shot once the game is released.



I knew the shot type weapons would be my go to as rapid fire weapons have always been in past shooters. Right now I'm really digging the Splattershot Jr., especially since I like it's loadout with the standard grenade and bubble shield, the later of which has proven to be way better than I thought especially since you can share it with allys!



The charger really needs some work. I was competitive with the other weapons, and am usually a Sniper/Range-Rifle type of guy on traditional shooters, but I was performing in the middle-to-bottom of the pack with the charger. At the very least it needs better spread if you are trying to lay out a line and hit something closer. A full charge typically takes an enemy out pretty effectively, though, provided that its a direct hit.

Roller easiest but I sucked with charge shot. Anyone know what single player comprises off.
