| {{art-inkipedia|Ink}}
| | '''Ink''' is a special effect in [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]] that is used only by {{SSBU|Inkling}} in most of its attacks. When opponents are covered in ink, they take additional damage from attacks from other fighters, thus allowing them to be KO'd faster, speeding up gameplay. |
| There are a few [[attack]]s in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' that cover foes in '''ink''', mostly used by {{SSBU|Inkling}}.
| |
| | |
| When inked, characters take extra damage from any source proportional to the ink's coverage amount, measured in its own units, which can be specified for each attack with the ink effect. This is visually manifested by the ink progressively covering a larger proportion of the affected character's model. The multiplier for damage taken by inked characters is determined by the formula <code>1 + ink * 0.5 / 180</code>, with a maximum multiplier of 1.5×; as a result, the highest damage possible is achieved with at least 180 units of ink, which will also visually show a character fully inked. However, the actual coverage amount can continue increasing up to 300 units, so fully inking a character technically means covering them by at least 60%. | |
| | |
| After a character is inked, the ink begins to deteriorate at a rate of 0.25 units per [[frame]] if the character is not hit by an inking attack for at least 120 frames (2 seconds). Therefore, ink takes 14 seconds to wear off with 60% coverage, and 22 seconds with full coverage. Similarly to the [[1v1 multiplier]], the additional damage applied to inked fighters will not affect the knockback any individual hit deals, or damage dealt to shields, but multi-hit attacks may KO earlier due to the fighter being at a higher percent when the final hit connects. Contrary to what is often believed, this is the only way for ink to deteriorate; [[button mashing]], dealing or taking damage (even from attacks with a {{b|water|effect}} effect), and [[swimming]] have no effect on the ink's duration. Alternatively, getting KO'd fully removes the ink.
| |
| | |
| The color of ink is entirely cosmetic, aside from potentially making the coverage amount harder to estimate. Only one color of ink will be shown at a time, with the color changing once the new color's amount of ink surpasses the old one's. The effects of different colored inks do not stack. An Inkling is also equally affected by having their own ink [[reflect]]ed at them, which can technically make it worse for the player should this occur. When Kirby copies an Inkling, he will use the first color of ink (in order of orange, blue, yellow, green, pink, cyan, light purple or dark purple) that isn't being used by an Inkling or another Kirby. Master Hand uses a light blue ink. Some Assist Trophies can also be covered in ink.

| | |
| {{SSBU|Mr. Game & Watch}}'s [[Oil Panic]] in ''Ultimate'' uses an effect similar to ink when hitting opponents, covering them in oil that deteriorates after a few seconds. However, this effect is completely aesthetic, and wears off much faster.

| ==Trivia==
| | *[[Neutral attack|Neutral infinite/finisher]] |
| *In [[Training mode]], ink is not applied to characters if Fixed Damage is turned on. | | *[[Forward smash]] |
| *When a character is [[screen KO]]'d while covered in ink, the ink remains during the screen KO animation. | | *[[Up smash]] |
| *If {{SSBU|Mr. Game & Watch}} is covered in ink, the 3D definition becomes visible on his model. His model is flattened along one axis to make him 2D, and the ink effect breaks this illusion by revealing his shape, similarly to effects such as being [[metal]] or being a [[false character]]. | | *[[Down smash]] |
| *A {{SSBU|Mii Fighter}}'s face will only be covered in ink when they are completely covered in ink (300 units). | | *[[Forward throw|Forward throw (second hit)]] |
| **Inversely, {{SSBU|Wario}}'s face will be instantly covered in ink no matter how much is put on. This oddity only occurs with Wario's classic costumes and not with his biker costumes. | | *[[Floor attack|Floor attack (front, back, and trip)]] |
| *Oddly, ink attacks can be absorbed by moves such as [[PSI Magnet]], despite being matter instead of [[energy]]. | | *[[Splattershot]] |
| *The metal status shares the same effect on character models as ink, so gaining the metal status will immediately remove ink for its duration. | | *[[Splat Roller]] |
| | *[[Splat Bomb]] |
| | *[[Killer Wail]] |

| | Ink is a major aesthetic and tool in the ''Splatoon'' series, being the embodiment of the Inklings in Inkopolis, and the basis for their weapons. For the Inklings, it is their major form of transport, since they can swim in it, and defense, since they can use it as a projectile, and that an Inkling of different color cannot step in that Inkling's ink, which can be lethal to them. Ink is also used in the annual Turf Wars, where competing teams of Inklings try to cover as much area as possible in their team colored ink. |
