being a rule nazi is lame af, some team literally showed up 12 minutes late against us in the same tournament and we let them play it out (and 3-0 us) instead of being lame about that rule, just play the damn game
The following doc is my response to a doc that was posted about me by @/cupsnakey on September 10th. Her doc leaves out significant context. I'm not looking to get her banned, I just wanted the full story to be out there. Please read to the end.
Top teams: don't enter tournaments
Everyone: "Why are you not doing tournaments???"
Top teams: enter tournaments
Everyone: "how dare you enter a tournament, now nobody can have fun!"
Is it bad that I instinctively call my opponents "him" when calling out no matter what gender they are? I'm not really even thinking about it when I do it, it just kinda happens
@Chase_247_
Depends when they dc tbh, if they do it late so the match counts for the winners that's ok (and it gives them time to try to learn from struggling against players above their level), but doing it in the first minute kinda robs the other team of a potential win/cash/XP
As long as this game pays out virtually nothing in prize money, I refuse to force myself to play weapons/strategies that I find completely unenjoyable even if they're objectively "better". Why would I play spammy k52 when I don't enjoy it and won't win big prizes anyway.
If Nintendo is gonna force us to play turf for a weekend then I should be able to spawn camp the hell out of casuals if I want to 🙄 if you only play the game for splatfest then maybe don't expect to hang with the people that ACTUALLY play the game
Left Helix on good terms, ended up disbanding altogether. With carrot on a break and chase leaving I think it's the best thing for me to do. I'm gonna focus on pickups/trying to get into +3 and also making some more connections. Not interested in trying out for teams right now
I wish I was known for more stuff than just a splatoon player, nothing else I ever tweet gets the same interaction, I haven't even played the game in 3 days, but it feels like that's all I'm known for
I'm playing solo Q and frito has guessed the correct winner of the game 7 times in a row just by looking at the proportion of inklings and octolings on each team
Do people also comment shit like that on youtube videos by pro players in other games than Splatoon?
Man's been competing at the top level for the longest time, yet Timmy from S rank seems to know better
Hot take (or maybe not, idk): S2 had by far the best maps and it's not even close, if this game had ported the exact same maps we already had in 2 it would be instantly better. Outside of piranha ancho v and hagglefish the only good maps in splat history are S2 maps
Low level seems like it gets more attention than high level because once players reach high level and stay there for a while, eventually they realize this game isn't worth grinding constantly anymore and they slowly wean themselves off it, for low level the drive is still there
Me and
@Chase_247_
are trying to make a project team and we're looking for an aggro support (zap/H-3 preferred) and charger player to join us. If anyone is interested you can dm me here or discord, just be div 2+ and fairly active at NA evening times. RT's appreciated
New video! In it I talk about the technique of jumping in combat and how to play against it. I'd appreciate if you would take a look and/or spread the word with a RT! I'm going to try to make more informative videos like this in the future.

@ThatSrb2DUDE
That's not a bug, it's designed as counterplay to tacticooler but because respawn punisher comes with the downside of punishing the user too, it also impacts your qr/special saver
@Hidorisu_
@Kbot_273
Kraken: Infinite HP, keeps the ball upon ending, can cancel it's own knockback, can reliably kill without ending
It's comparable only in terms of strategy (everyone jump to someone at basket), not in terms of balance/counterplay
@ayoaro_
Remember when people were worried about broken splat 2 missiles being in the game at launch? I'll take that any day over liter with burst and 180P kraken 2.0
After a year and a half of grinding, I've finally reached twitch affiliate! This is a really big step for me and I just wanna thank all the people that helped me get here by watching the stream, playing with me, etc. I hope this is only the beginning 👀
I still really like this game and I'm gonna come back for real but I'm feeling less and less inclined to care about most of the people in this community, I'm too old for this shit
If people hate squid bagging the big brain play is not to make fun of them for disliking it it's to let them get tilted to make it easier to beat them 😎 (ig in some cases the former can help you do the latter)
@Chase_247_
It's not that fun, attackers can't really win without the ultra thing and you can just camp mid and then push when they feed and die for it, which as a defender isn't super fun either tbh
Why do people want zones only? It's the least interesting mode to watch, just charge specials and retake, hold as long as you can until the enemy gets specials, rinse and repeat. And the timer ticks the same speed whether you go 2 down or get wiped.
FYI yall I am still alive, I just have had a lot of stuff going on irl (mostly good things) so I haven't really been able to play the game or create content, but I will be back 👍
I hate this community's discourse around game balance so much, I was told I was throwing for playing vshot instead of splash in early game and now all of a sudden it's a braindead broken weapon with zero counterplay, make it make sense???
Now that I'm back from break: me and chase are still looking for support players for our project, preferably be comfortable with Nzap/H-3, be able to play at a div 2+ level, RT's appreciated!
You don't wanna miss this one 👀I teamed up with
@Chase_247_
@ProChara
and
@ShinxShinexx
in a high level content creator pickup scrim! This video features 4 matches from the scrim, and be sure to check out their videos as well!

What I hate the most about this SAC thing is that 4D was allowed to play the entire season without incident. If SAC wants to claim that they care so much about the rules, maybe they should communicate them beforehand instead of saying "oh btw" at the end of the season
I feel like a lot of this bliss stuff could be cleared up if we knew more about what he's been doing since coming back other than just madhouse's support for him. A statement from him or any evidence other than just us having to take someone's word that "he's changed".
So, looks like my team is done for. I feel lost, alone and I don't really know where to go from here...my emotions are all over the place and I have no clue how to stop them😔
