- Lack of visibility in Nintendo Direct presentations and early gameplay footage.

Reasons for Exclusion of the Modeller [0:01]
The video begins with the creator introducing themselves and stating the topic of discussion: the Modeller weapon’s potential absence in Splatoon Raiders. The first reason given is its lack of representation in Nintendo Direct and pre-release footage, suggesting it might not feature in the upcoming game.
Functional Overlap with Benizuru Shooter [0:10]
The second reason for the Modeller's possible exclusion is its functional similarity to the Benizuru Shooter, which enhances the range of the Young Shooter and focuses on ink coverage. As both weapons serve comparable roles, the Modeller is at risk of being removed to avoid redundancy.
Challenges with Bomb Disposal [0:32]
The third reason discussed is the Modeller's difficulty in dealing with bomb disposal. The creator notes that the Modeller's random number generation makes it ineffective for bomb management, especially during solo play in the game's story mode. This challenge could further increase the likelihood of the Modeller being cut from the lineup.

The creator wraps up the discussion by expressing a personal affinity for the Modeller and a desire for its inclusion in the game. They speculate that even if the Modeller is replaced by the Benizuru Shooter, there are still options available, such as using power-type gadgets, to replicate some of the Modeller's abilities. The video concludes with the creator stating that this wraps up their thoughts on the topic.
