Bomb Rush temporarily allows the player to make use of theirsub weapon with noink requirement, allowing it to be thrown or placed as fast as is allowed by that particular sub weapon. This speed varies, withBurst Bombs being thrown more quickly thanSuction Bombs.
Bomb Rush can be used with:
Players using Bomb Rush can still attack normally with theirmain weapon.
Use
- It is possible to continue bomb-throwing even after Bomb Rush has expired, but this will depletes the ink tank. Since secondary weapons consume large amounts of ink, pay extra attention to the status of Bomb Rush to avoid accidental depletion.
- The special meter will deplete for the duration of Bomb Rush.
- An Inkling's hair will glow and flutter while Bomb Rush is ready, and while Bomb Rush is active. This effect will cease once Bomb Rush has ended.
- The allowed number of bomb throws depends on the amount ofSpecial Duration Up, and on the type of bomb. An Inkling with no Special Duration Up may throw up to 10Seekers, 11Suction Bombs, 11Splat Bombs, or 16Burst Bombs before Bomb Rush expires. This count can be used to loosely estimate how much time is left on Bomb Rush.
- Splat and Suction Bomb Rushes can be great for defending or retaking a Splat Zone, as they deal high damage and cover lots of ground. As ofversion 2.7.0, Seeker and Burst Bomb Rushes cover significant amounts of turf as well, although Burst Bombs deal less damage and Seekers need to be launched carefully to achieve maximum coverage (especially if they are "distracted" by enemy Inklings).
- When using a Burst Bomb Rush, keep in mind that the throwing rate is increased by 50% for the duration of that special (20 frames delay instead of 30).

Quotes
| “ | Activating Bomb Rush allows you to deploy unlimitedsub weapons, includingSplat Bombs,Burst Bombs, andSuction Bombs. This special remains active for approximately six seconds. During this time, continually spam sub weapons in an effort to take out opponents and spreadink - don't worry, you won't run out of ink while Bomb Rush is active. DuringTurf War, a last-minute push with Bomb Rush can make all the difference, especially if using Splat Bombs or Suction Bombs, covering ink over a wide area before the opposing team can respond. | ” |

Splatoon 2
InSplatoon 2, as explained inSunken Scroll 11, no special weapons from the first game return. The role of the Bomb Rush was indirectly replaced by theBomb Launcher, in that they both fire a barrage ofsub weapons, however the Bomb Launcher fires the weapons further and with greater accuracy, and is not dependent on the player's sub weapon.
Octo Canyon
During thefinal battle ofOcto Canyon,Callie uses a Bomb Rush to attackAgent 4, although now with oversizedSplat Bombs and goldenSuction Bombs. She does this whilst performing aremix ofBomb Rush Blush, a song presumably about the Bomb Rush special.
Trivia
