How to Use Jet Squelcher Effectively


Use your long range capability to cover for your allies.

Support your allies from behind or take up vantage points such as on top of boxes and obstacles to provide firing power. Let the close-ranged weapons wear down the opponents for you to secure the splat!

Use the Ink Vac to disable your opponent's attacks and protect your allies.

Once you get Ink Vac, quickly jump to the frontlines of the battle and activate it to absorb all the enemy fire and launch a counter-attack by shooting back the absorbed ink.
