What I never understood about Bamboozler until Splatoon 3 is that the tap shot has nearly the same range as the charge. On all other chargers your tap shot is pathetically short because you are meant to use the charged shots to get anything done. Bamboozler's strength over the other chargers is how fast you can pull off kills by mixing up the charged and tap shots from a fair distance.
When you equip the bamboozler you're playing with a charger on hard mode, Not only are you playing a lower-range sniper that needs to two-shot, but the counter to bamboo is longer range chargers, and when you enter X Rank the game forces you to play against chargers due to how the game tries to balance teams by putting "similar" weapons in the same bucket.
This is what the Bamboozler always should have been. With its near instant charge time, it never should have been able to 1 shot people because that just made more people run it with Damage Up or MPU rather than choose weapons like Squiffer. It encroached on the role of chargers like Squiffer with a faster charge time and longer range. Also, I believe its paint has never been particularly good, at least with the main weapon. It's just its kits typically helped mitigate those issues.
@@splersh194 I don't hate it, I just didn't like the playstyle which involved stacking Damage Up or MPU. Saying the weapon is what it always should have been doesn't mean I hate it. It's just that now people actually have to play it the way it was originally designed
@@ewelsgaminghub3194 yeah I'm just playing around lmfao Bamboozler is definitely doing better now, I think mpu is fun, but it's demanding with AP and is very restrictive on how creative you can be with your bamboozler build
As funny as MPU Bamboo was, it definitely kinda ruined the weapon's identity. Now it finally get to stand out on it's own merit instead of trying to be a regular charger. (But uh... if we could get that second kit with burst bomb that'd still be much appreciated)
@@squiddler7731 true! And they haven't made a single aggressive charger kit so far soooooo 👀 Unfortunately I forsee mpu coming back, but if a bamboozler player is good at the game they won't need it
I also like to run it with ninja squid. Really makes you feel like a commando sneaking around and being nasty. Sniping people from weird angles they don't expect... Almost like a bamboozler of sorts.
i feel like comparing multi shot chargers (Bambozzler, Snipewriter) and single shot chargers is a little bit difficult due to their inherent differences in gameplay. I've never felt the squiffer was inherently harder. You don't need to land all of your shots, just most of them.
3:16 Everything lined up perfectly for Dude. From living what would otherwise be a team wipeout, to getting the last clam in because the one of the enemies dropped a clam by picking up the football. Truly, phenomenal.
i could see Bamboozler really going off down the line, if its next kit ends up being really good something like Burst Bomb + Wavebreaker, or like Torpedo + Splashdown, or something with Angle Shooter (if that gets buffed)?
I first played the bamboo during the recent random weapons challenge. I have never even touched a charger before that but i kinda fell in love? The lack of range and two shot kill basically forced me to play a bit more aggressively so i was picking out two v 1 and splatting from a farther distance than my mate. Hitting already weakened players making ut a one shot hit every time
I’ve played with every charger since S1 except Bamboo. This weapon was hard for me because the charge time was just too fast. Its much harder to establish a rhythm with each shot, making it more difficult to pull of flick shots. However, I’ve decided to give Bamboo a real shot lately and been patient in the process as well. This thing is extremely versatile I’ve been sleeping on it.
i wish my hand-eye coordination and positioning could make my opponents move as slowly and predictably as Dudes 😢 i feel like even i could hit people on his screen!
In order to play Bamboo you have to not play it like a charger. You can't camp halfway across the map and kill in one shot, that almost never works out, you have to constantly be moving, take advantage of it's 2 shot since a full charge and a tap can kill, and overall not be a coward
I didn’t even realise that the Bamboozler required you to shoot twice- it makes sense now in SR! (TAT) Great video DUDE! And oooo I hope you don’t get any weird disconnects- especially in Splatfest! (;3;)b Also can anyone provide all the music in this video because OOOOOOO IT WAS A BOP- especially the last one! :D
Wait, really? I always found every other charger really, really hard to use, yet the Bamboozler is one of my mains. I have the 5 star sticker with it! I have the easiest time with the Bamboozler out of every Charger type weapon by far!
I find the title odd because the Bamboozler is the only weapon my barely A- rank ass can actually use effectively.. I wanna flick shot people when I see them, but I don't wanna have to wait for a normal charger's windup, or deal with blaster's low range. It's the only charger which does not get lower range for tap-shotting, so charged shot into an instant tap shot kills at any range it can hit at.

The tap shot range is the exact same range as any charge amount
At first, I was using the bamboozler as a meme weapon, but then I ended up 5 staring it. It's such a fun weapon to use.
same, except the 5 star part. i did 5-star undercover similarly though 😭

Sounds like hating imo
Stop stepping on the bamboozler empire 🔥

The squiffer is so much harder because you are basically finished if you get in range and miss your one shot.

Niko is a boss at the Bamboozler.
he certainly wins
niko WINS!
niko wins!!!!!!!!!!!!
NIKO WINS‼️‼️‼️
BOOGA SPOTTED🗣🗣
1:59 There’s clearly no counter play when you play against DUDE
3:16

something like Burst Bomb + Wavebreaker,
or like Torpedo + Splashdown,

i'd love kraken or stamp on it
I just wish for torpedo with kraken or stamp or anything aggressive but no shark pls
im an og splat 1 player trying to get back into splatoon, dude helps me improve everyday.

I loved the part where Dude said "it's bamboozling time!" and bamboozled all over the place
Dude's in his Capn' Cuttlefish arc with this one

Bamboozler is so weird. To play it, you need the reaction of a god, but at the same time your mind can be just expired yogurt.
Bamboozler is the only charger I've ever cared to pick up and play, I either found the rest a bit boring or that I really suck with them

6:12 Certified Splatoon 3 moment
I can't play normal chargers to save my life. But bamboo and snipewriter? Those I can work with
I watched a video on how to use the weapon and one of the things that tells you to do is to do a charge shot and then tap shot
I didn’t even realise that the Bamboozler required you to shoot twice- it makes sense now in SR! (TAT)
Great video DUDE! And oooo I hope you don’t get any weird disconnects- especially in Splatfest! (;3;)b
Also can anyone provide all the music in this video because OOOOOOO IT WAS A BOP- especially the last one! :D
Great video, great music choices as always
Imagine being the guys who got squidbagged by Dude. is it an honor, or major disrespect?
Dude’s videos always inspire me to try a new weapon. I then spend the next hour embarrassing myself 😂
I think the Snipewriter is harder personally, but Bamboo is definitely number 2.
Honestly when I play bamboo in turf I’m terrible. But xrank i literally am cracked at it..
it is because it is not a dedacated sever game it is more of a peer to peer game

The Shadow music 🔥
I feel like I’m good with bad weapons for just one game then it actually becomes bad lol
I wish i was better with this and other snipers but i'm horrible at playing aggressively
Give my bamboo burst bomb cooler or torpedo crab please nintendo i beg you
This video is S tier, so fun!
I love seeing Dude troll. Please another Toxic Flingza vid.
Almost thought this was a niko vid
am i crazy or is dude as skilled with the bamboo as the charger and liter 😮
You’re not crazy, Dude is. That’s why he’s good at everythibg
Great video Dude!
Bamboozler my favorite :D
Love Bamboo
I can’t even hit a charger shot lol
idk man i feel like the goob toob is more difficult 🤣
what does dude main? splatoon probably
What is this song from? 1:14
Flying Battery Zone from Sonic e Knuckles 3 or Sonic Mania
Day 1 of asking dude to 1v1
good luck with that
Niko wins!
I can't believe he used the bambooga
nah this is the easiest out of all imo (i play all chargers)
i thought the boozer was supposed to be the midpoint between the shooter and charger classes
but maybe pencil took that role
I think bamboo is more veristial. You can win more when people blindside you. Pencil has that traditional, I am a sniper don't approach me role.
