Splatoon |OT2| Prepare to Dye

I hate this game.

I just went 11-3 and 9-2 in my past two matches, and two of my random teammates got 0-8 and 1-12.

And I was de-ranked.

UGH.

I think I'm done with ranked.
 
I needed to get off for a minute anyways.

That was my third match with the carbon. It's going to take some getting used to. Does damage up help?
 
I don't know why, but the most memorable matches and skirmishes of the night for me usually have you in it. That sniper duel? It beats the panic circle-strafe shooting trade Grakl and I did one time. Another is figuring out that Burst Bombs can stall bubblers enough to keep them away. =D
After my first 3 missed bombs, I almost gave up hope. I want to try out the regular bombs but the Eliter doesn't come with it. I might try scopes out, it looks interesting.

Yeah I was actually surprised about the Burst Bombs. Now I have to be creative when I try to kill you. :/
Gotta get Burnburn in on that, he does work with the default Splattershot with the burst bombs.
Heh I'll try to remember that when we can form a group.
8 players activating bomb rush at once
Would that drop our frames like 2+ suction bomb rush? We might not activate it all at the same time.
 
It does according to Violet.

well, I did some testing with +25% on dummies and I did ~100 damage (with the damage bonus) with 1 or 2 swings frequently enough to think it's worth it. Burst bombs do more damage as well so that's a plus

it's especially noticeable on the dummies with armor
 
So remember how I told everyone here about my horrible luck with multiple rerolls of my Shrimp Pink Polo and how I gave up because I wasn't getting what I wanted (three ink saver mains)? Well...

How the fuck does my luck work?

Edit: Do also note how there are three swim speed ups in this set but not all on the shoes, and three ink saver mains but not all on the shirt. I'm thinking about messing with this for old time's sake this week, but the red vector tee is definitely my go-to in this post ninja nerf world.
 
Lol. There were times where you survived more than 3 hits from my Splattershot, but I guess it didn't register one of them. GGs either way. =D

Edit: Oooooh, the damage decreases with range. That's why. =P

the room was really laggy for me as well for some reason

it takes 3-4 swings to kill someone from max range, damage up increases your chance of a 1-hit kill from a medium distance

Pretty jealous of that polo. Still looking for something to settle on myself.

IMO the best post-ninja-nerf top is the Rainy-Day Top. Ink saver main, increased chance of swim speed sub.

I'm leveling mine up now if anyone wants to grab it in the lobby.

I'm just not a fan of swimming, especially without ink resistance, I like focusing on foot speed. I'm currently trying to ween myself off ink resistance and learn the carbon roller, and it's not going too well. Currently coming up with some strategies to try out tonight when I get off.

Once the nerf happens, I'm gonna put ink resistance back on and see how bad it hurts my nozzlenose. Brush shouldn't be too bad as the coverage gives you enough ground as it is. Once that octobrush drops with splatbombs, its over. I just hope they don't kill it's speed for the superior subs.

I'd actually make an argument for the Red Vector Tee as well. Ink Saver Main + increased chances for Special Charge Up. Stack that with your favorite Special Charge Up main gear and just go to town dropping the urley Inkstrikes/Suction Bomb Rushes.

Ooo, that's a good one too. I'm definitely going to level one up for when I use the Spat-o-Matic.
