Splatoon 2 Guide: Clam Blitz
Clam Blitz- It’s important to pick weapons and specials that can help push and defend the power clams in order to score at the enemies basket. Very effective specials are Bubble Blower, Ink Armor, and Tenta Missiles.
- Weapon-Forge Splattershot Pro
- Very effective in Clam Blitz for the same reason as the original Ssplattershot pro (range, kill time etc.). But suction bombs and bubble blower do a better job at trying to push towards the enemy basket.
- Abilities
- Special Power Up to make those bubbles bigger! Object Shredder to not only help pop the bubbles quicker but to also counter against opponent bubbles and ballers (another popular clam special). Ink saver sub to use suction bombs more often.
- Tactics
- Use your range to defend against any opponents trying to push with their power clams then use the bubbles to protect yourself and your team to push forward with the power clam. (remember you can hide in your bubbles but don’t forget to pop them too to get those kills!). Also if an enemy drops a power clam, you can place suction bombs directly on top of it to prevent the enemy from trying to pick it up again.
- Weapon-Inkbrush Nouveau
- Popular in clam blitz as a clam transporter. Inkbrushes can run in and out of danger very quickly and can collect clams with ease. Comes with ink mine to keep the enemy in check and baller for an aggressive push.
- Abilities
- Ink saver main will allow you to run with the inkbrush for longer. If you are not good at killing with the Inkbrush and prefer to use it primarily to transport clams, then quick respawn is helpful. Sub-power Up and/or Special Power UP to help power up ink mines and baller.
- Tactics
- As soon as the match start, run around collecting clams and try to help your teammates cover as much turf as possible. Wait to let teammates with stronger weapons go on the offensive and then run towards the basket. If your teammates manage to break the barrier, run around to collect more clams and take them to the basket. Use the baller to create a distraction or go in more aggressively. Use Inkmines at flank points so you can tell if an enemy is going towards your basket.
