Splatoon |OT2| Prepare to Dye

I just had someone on my team end the match with an Inkstrike but they hit a place that was already covered in our ink and we lost by a few percentage points because of it.

Okay.
I know that feeling, damn last minute turn around.
Oh damn I did my best
 
Thanks dude that sounds about right. It's a bummer because ive been trying to go from A- to A for about a week and I was 10 points away but only got 6 to bring me to 96 X____X
Damn you got to A- and never experienced any other point total than 10, that's weird. It's worse when you are at A+ with 90 points and you win a match and get +8 and 99 is the max, I was not losing that next match we pushed into overtime and won it was one of the best ranked matches I have ever played
 
oof that was rough. worked. there was a good moment in the middle there where i was trying to zip around through the middle of a fight and largely succeeding.
 
Ok, changed weapons, tired of the team all dying at the last minute and losing because we cant get far enough.
Gonna krak-on and set up some antennas for u guys

Not even a turn around, a "We would have won if you attacked the enemy's territory but you attacked ours instead"

No I probably have but this is the first time I noticed it. The matches start so quickly so as soon as it ends I use the few seconds to shoot out a text, check gaf, etc. Thats crazy, the overtime matches make for some really happy teams or some really pissed off teams haha
 
This game is so frustrating some times.
I wish splatfes had skill based matchmaking. Clearly some people on my team would be C- if this were ranked.
 
So how does it works the whole system in splatfest?
You choose a team, and then go to the lobby and play. There is only one playlist. Bread vs Rice, or if your American, Cat vs Dog. I imagine when it ends you will get stuff if your team wins. There is a ranking system somewhat in the playlist itself. Like the starting one was 'Normal bread girl' for me, and as you get points it changes to super or charisma or whatever. The city area changes too during a Splatfes it looks pretty cool. Different song seems to play during matches.
I'm not sure if there is actually a way to see which side is winning in game overall.

Happens all the time or just some matches? I was playing complete lag free before.
A few games ago had pretty bad lag. It was better this match.
Random splats were making me shake from the noise.
That match wasn't as bad, but there was some bad lag every so often.
 
Good games, GAF. I always show up too late and the room is full already, so it was awesome to be able to sneak into a room tonight! Sometimes I'm just a big chicken and don't join because I'm worried I can't hang with you guys... Gotta get that confidence up. I'll add a bunch of y'all tomorrow. Playing GAF is so much better than randoms.

I keep thinking that I can wall people out with the Dual Squelcher (like against randoms) but GAF is too tricky for that. Sooooooo many stupid deaths. I felt like I was getting a good setup on Saltspray Rig by rushing ahead, getting high, and then camping the entrance for a moment while my teammates would show up... We would take over the northern pier every single match. But then I would ultimately do something stupid late in the match and we would lose it at the end. Had a nice streak going in the middle, and then lost a whole bunch in the end.

(Also, turning off Stealth Jump is hilarious when get dependent on it. So many dumb jumps.)

When BlueSilver showed up, I got really nervous. Snipers eat me for lunch.

Can't splat long-rangers today. I'm looking at Jims, jorge and others. Damn.

:p

Hahaha Rice vs Bread, excellent!
Sounds good but I'm thinking a lot of people will sing up and never played the thing...expecting the team wins.
Will the splatfest personal rank affect the final prize? Would be nice to know the rules. Some word from Nintendo?
 
Whoever made that 'TEN DAYS AGO I MADE THIS SONG BECAUSE OF YOU' thing, I can't hear anything else when VS.2 play anymore.

Thank you.

this is not sarcasm

Squelcher with no bomb makes me sad. =(
 
Let me put it this way: Cats are stupid.

You'll get awarded at the end depending on your rank you got even if you lose. The winning team gets awarded more though I think.
 
Man Kelp Dome is really the kind of stage where you have to trust your teammates to do well on their own. If too many of you bunch together in the same place the rest of the map will get inked by the opponents in no time
