How to Use Clash Blaster Effectively

Position yourself first behind your allies before shooting since the weapon has a slow firing rate.

You will not be as effective in close-quarters combat as other close-ranged weapons are as the Clash Blaster has an extremely slow rate-of-fire. Compensate for this by waiting for allies to divert the attention of the enemy team to them so can blast your ink on the enemy safely.

Since this is a close-ranged weapon, use the Splat Bombs to halt enemies from pushing you while you retreat.

When you get overwhelmed and need to stop the enemy Inklings from pushing, throw in a Splat Bomb and use Squid Swim to fall back and reposition.

Can be played aggressively by throwing Splat Bombs first then charging in with the Clash Blaster.

You can cause opponents to scatter by throwing Splat Bombs first and then charge in with the Clash Blaster while your enemies are still swimming away and trying to find cover.
