god turf wars really does feel supes casual after grinding it out in the ranked pit. it's so relaxing now!

of course it helps that i'm just steamrolling pubbies

Yup, i'm just relaxing to get all my gear unlocks and while I ain't as good as SplatGAF, i'm happy I can do this with my Zapper and wearing clothes I don't give a toss about.

Wait until I start using Ninja Squid and people don't see me coming!

EDIT: 2 people on the other team with 666? Even the devils could not stop me!

EDIT 2: I find it funny that if you took 300p away from each of my team, everyone except me would have done worse than the other team.

I did a silly little Banksy picture last night before playing a few games because I hadn't seen it in game yet and thought it'd be funny and I go on the Wii U today and it's got 268 yeahs! More Yeahs! than everything I've done before combined (which granted were all rubbish).

I saw that in my game last night, pretty cool that someone here drew it.

 

[ratcliffja]

Never even heard of Banksy. I had to Google him and I don't think I've ever seen one of his pictures.

 

[Kid Ska]

Not sure if real.

I'm leaning towards fake.

No way

Spoiler

pls be real

 

[Kouriozan]

I can't find anything about it, I guess it's wait until midnight and see.

 

[Timeaisis]

I have the ninja shirt I'll be on later today after work maybe we can do some matches and ill show up in your plaza

Sounds good.

 

[Tathanen]

I'm not sure I'll ever stop using the Kelp Charger.

I can't figure out any reason to.

 

[pinkurocket]

They aren't gonna be adding new characters, lol. That would be so much work, they'd have to customize the animation to go from squid to kid etc.

However more cosmetics based on Amiibo would be gr8.

yeah I want to do more graffiti-style art that will actually look cool in-game. Might put aside an evening to doodle a little

 

[Vena]

I want this to be real.

So that I can get my Captain Falcon outfit!

Anyone else find themselves still using the Splattershot Jr.? I'm level 13 and haven't been able to find any other gun that works nearly as well for me. The rapid fire combined with the large spread combined with the bubbler special is a perfect combo for inking a ton of turf rapidly while not getting killed. It may not be the best at killing other players, but given that doesn't really matter (at least in turf wars, which I find far more enjoyable than splat zones) it's all good!

 

[Dunkley]

Digging the Custom Jet Squelcher way more than I thought, definitely one of my favorites along with the Tentatek Splattershot and the Aerospray MG.

Lovin' that Kraken special on it.

I'm with you on that lol. I even prefer it to most other weapons in Splat Zones. I gave all the other ones a shot (maybe not long enough though) but it just wasn't working for me.

For me an aerospray with the ink strike and mines works the best for me. I'm at a level 17 and have completed 3 worlds on single player.

We need to take a poll of all the GAF snipers to see what controls they are using. Some of you guys are unbelievable shots.

Pretty sure Sendou uses Gyro (like everyone else should)

that really isn't a very complicated animation

but yeah I agree with some others here, please don't ruin the coherent art style with silly crossovers

octolings otoh would be much appreciated

 

[Violet_0]

is there any charger user here not using the gyro?

 

[Deleted member 752119]

Agreed. A strength of the game is being a new IP and not just shoehorning their mascots into another genre yet again.

Octolings and different squid hairstyles would be great.

actually he said that he doesn't

this game sucks

I use the custom splattershot jr. a lot. really nice weapon set.

 

[Zing]

That Kelp Charger range is insane!

 

[ViviOggi]

miiverse more like memeverse

 

[-Horizon-]

Got to level 13. Can finally get that darn gold gun everyone seems to sport in multiplayer.

No motion controls sensitivity +2

I'm level 20 and still use Jr. It's the best gun that has the bubbler. So it fits my playing style the most. I'm not really a sit back and snipe people type of player.

 

[NotLiquid]

actually he said that he doesn't

My world has been irrevocably shaken

 

[Azure J]

I am seriously envious of all artists just seeing how Miiverse implementation works in this game. I would do such dorky stuff if I had the skill. I want to learn so badly.

 

[brau]

Woots! my copy is here! i'll be playing today.

is there a place to share Nintendo IDs?

 

[tonyh24613]

Japan Miiverse community is so much better than other regions, lol.

 

[Tathanen]

Gyro all the way buddy.

 

[daydream]

personally, i've got more respect for (aka am more afraid of) good roller players then good chargers

i know how to play against the latter, pro rollers on the other hand really mess me up

 

[Kouriozan]

Hmm, there should be gear set or being able to mark some as favorite.

 

[Storm Kyleis]

Does anyone remember the source of this gif?

seriously? I had the opposite experience. RAnked is full of braindead scrubs. it's no wonder team based tactical shooters all but disappeared from consoles given how demonstrably people are unable to grasp the concept.

I believe it was when Nintendo announced splatoon at last year's E3 direct.

I'm the exact opposite. I can deal with good rollers (except that crazy good japanese dude from last night) but have no idea how to kill a great charger. Some levels I can sneak up on them and kill them, others, they have the range and I just can't do anything. Probably my problem is I'm an Aerospray player and have no range.

 

[Totakeke]

I just realized that obviously you'd want run speed up with the roller.

*smacks head*


I wonder if that increases ink consumption. Hm.

Yea, it's the bubbler sub that really puts the Jr. Over the top for me. I love the feeling of safety I get when I have a full special meter.

 

[-Horizon-]

Yeah, I went back to the splattershot jr as well.

[random25]

Damn this Japanese player who ambushes from the walls using a roller. He's legit.

 

[Kouriozan]

I know how to prevent comm error, woot.
Usually it happens when someone DC, you paint the ground but nothing appear.
So you just have to paint a bit, take a break/don't move until the paint appear and continue until you can play normally.

 

[Azure J]

I wish if there were an Aerospray with Suction Bombs or if you could throw Mines. :lol

Yeah... when there's like 15 seconds left in turf wars, I just run over to the other teams side and activate the bubbler. Then just go to town lol.
