Sprinklers also make excellent decoys when you need to approach with the brush. Toss them behind your prey from inside ink, cut off their escape route, and scrawl your name on their face.
Brush-GAF is best GAF.
Man, I remember using the Brush agianst another Brush user in Ranked. We were both just out of reach of our flick attack, and I swear, for 5 seconds it looked exactly like this:

I think what he's saying is, people are generally not doing well with it in matchmaking (in his experiences). So if you have teammates with Brush's, you just kind of have to brace for an interesting game.
That said, a lot folks on here seem to be getting really great with them. And I've personally seen Brush's used as main weapons in Ranked (even as frontal aggressive combat). So I agree with you it's not an auto-loss, and if the person is good at it, they can actually dominate with Brush. Hell, Brush + Ninja is insane.
My experience lines up with his though, and in Turf, generally people don't know how to use Brush lol and it's a lopsided match if you get 1 or 2 on your team. While I know that can be true for any weapon (that it's all random, in terms of the people you get paired up with, and how good they are at a weapon), I still think Paint Brush has a high skill/entry level to it. One that, not everyone will get.
I feel like I'm going to be mixing and matching between the brush and the 52 gal deco for ranked Mononoke. I can definitely see myself going fully towards the brush though if I am blessed by RNGesus and get some gear that lets me exploit it further than I can currently. There's just too much fun to infiltration, assassination and support roles in this game.
I met a B+ rank Japanese player who made me feel like I was doing it wrong every time we engaged one another. I had my 52 gal at the time, but this person's walling ability was immaculate and just when you think "bail and get higher ground", they chased me and hit me so quickly I thought I had been taken out by another teammate. :lol
If Nintendo want to continue Splatoon on their next console, they need to add an Ethernet port to the console, unstable connections due to wireless is not fun.

What exactly is it about ethernet ports that Nintendo is wary about? I know the story with optical audio was that they weren't fond of paying royalties for it, but the ethernet port situation has always been weird to me.
100 for 1 to 3 flags, 300 for 4 to 6 flags and 1000 for the rest.Is there a cap to how high the reward can be? Or is it as many wins as you get?
It's in 4 mins for me.1 hour until new items in my shops and I aint maxxed out the ones I got already!
100 for 1 to 3 flags, 300 for 4 to 6 flags and 1000 for the rest.
It's cumulative so you get 1400 coins for reaching at least 7 flags.
It's in 4 mins for me.
I wonder if one can change Wii U's clock to get new gears, like Animal Crossing.
I go back and forth on it. I mean, the obvious is that: it's a new weapon, give people time to learn how to use it! Like, duh...of course people will be shaky using a new weapon. So it makes sense that in matchmaking when people are using a brand new weapon, they might not be good at it.
But then I kind of think that, the Paint Brush has such a unique gameplay style, that I want to say it's a high skill/entry level weapon. And I want to predict that most people won't get the hang of it, and it will only be a small % of skilled players using it as a main. However, I could be wrong there. Maybe the Paint Brush isn't that hard to use? Maybe some people just suck at it.
Either way, I just know that in ranked mode, I'm seeing people use Brush and dominate. And not just dominate in normal ways that people do, it's like...insane how they work the map with it.
I wish my aim wasn't randomly alternating between godlike and shit all the time
The problem I was having earlier today playing brush was that I spent a lot of time playing support and harassment and not enough time charging into the enemy territory partially because while it's neat getting there first, I like optimizing so the team gets in and fucks shit up for me to take advantage of the chaos versus me having to play distraction for x many seconds before anyone shows up. The crazy thing is just doing things like being thorough in coating areas (turf war) while everyone else is on the front lines led to me getting some scores I only see with the Aerospray, but I always feel like after I do that, I play a game of reaction to enemy forces versus pressing in on them and keeping up offensive momentum. I feel like there' s just one thing I'm missing in how I set up and play through out the match before I can say that I'd be totally satisfied playing brush for the duration of Splatoon's life.
Yeah, haha. It's true for every game i've played a sniper in thoughThis is what I feel like every time I play Charger.
Agreed.This is what I feel like every time I play Charger.

Yah, the Aerospray does look more like a traditional airbrush, though maybe the Splash-o-matic will shoot like one.Looks like an airbrush.
>_> nevermind I just looked at the Aerospray again and that's way more airbrush. Not sure what other painting devices use air pressure gauges.

The 2 Best Ranked Maps as Regulars and the 2 worst maps period as Ranked?![]()
There was tons of 3 stars gears, I went from 60k coins to 6k T-T
I'll need to get that money back.
Yeah, already completed all the challenges.do you have the amiibos?
Ranked would have been so much better if all maps had more zones like Domination in CoD instead of just King of the hill. I also don't like how there's camping spots near the zone on every map.
I really wish I could get good at this weapon.
I guess practice practice practice. Seems like some of you are picking it up really fast though. I'm envious, for sure. Are you stacking stealth perks? Ninja etc?
I wish it was more like Annex in Gears of War.Ranked would have been so much better if all maps had more zones like Domination in CoD instead of just King of the hill. I also don't like how there's camping spots near the zone on every map.
