Splatoon 2 Guide: Rainmaker
Rainmaker-Suggested weapons include those that can be used both offensively to help push and defend the Rainmaker and defensively to prevent a push by your opponents.
- Weapon-Tentatek Splattershot
- Very good all-around weapon for Rainmaker or other modes in general. Decent fire rate and damage make it easy to get kills. Plus its good at covering turf to help push the Rainmaker. Comes with splat bombs and Inkjet.
- Abilities
- Ink saver sub in order to use bombs more often. Special Power Up to make the Inkjet blasts more powerful. Ink Resistance is helpful since the Tentatek can be used to push into enemy ink.
- Tactics
- use splat bombs as much as possible in order to constantly create pressure or create space between you and your opponent. Use the Inkjet to push the Rainmaker forward. You can go for the splats or just become a distraction. They can either focus on you or the person with the Rainmaker!
- Weapon-Enperry Splat Dualies
- My personal favorite for Rainmaker. The combination of fire rate and mobility makes it a great weapon help the Rainmaker by keeping the ground covered. Curling bombs to push forward and Inkjet to be aggressive.
- Abilities
- Ink Resistance is helpful here since this weapon is good at the frontline. Special Power up for Inkjet, and ink saver sub for curling bombs. Swim speed would also be helpful for getting to the rainmaker faster at the beginning of the match
- Tactics
- Use Curling bombs to the very beginning to get your team to the center of the map first. Have your teammates follow behind your bomb as well. You can also use the curling bomb to create a quick path through enemy ink for the Rainmaker. Use your dodge roll and Inkjet to be more aggressive and get kills to help the Rainmaker forward.
