Either Amehbo (Amiibo) or they just levelled up like tons.

I've only encountered like a few Japanese players.
 
How the fuck do people get to 10th level and higher while still doing dumb shit like never checking their map or spending the first minute of the game painting every last corner of spawn while the enemy team establishes and unbreakable perimeter right outside

Hmmm.... are you 100% positive it was gold?

Sp2n has just been out so everything hasn't be revealed yet.

extremely positive i thought nothing of it until their icon when it killed me. I've been going through after match pics in my album and absolutely spewing i didn't screen capture the aftermatch results. Little annoyed. They were extremely good though, only info i've seen is about a gold dynamo roller, not the mg?

Lmao I don't mean to laugh but that image hits too close to home.

And yeah. You just described how I play online... cover the spawn then rush the outside areas then finally hit center. :^)
 
Ketchup is a condiment in the same sense a poptart is a breakfast food. Nothing more than a vehicle to pump your body with more high fructose corn syrup while adding an overwhelming sugary taste to actual food to go along with sugary drinks and lowered life expectancy. Only obese children eat ketchup - they put it on their hotdog-flavored rat-meat hot pockets and other microwavable "goods". Just eat some tomato slices, like a fucking human. Mayonnaise is eggs, vinegar, and oil. Much like mustard, it is an adult condiment for nutritious meals.

You're wrong.

Only babies use ketchup.

Mayo team fo sho.

So this is how it starts...

Thats probably the gold aerospray, you could get it on splatoon 1 too.

I see did a little more research its the Aerospace RG variant its locked at 28! Makes sense hehe the japanese player was quite high a level with that RG. Thanks for the info :)

Level 28. The Aerospray RG.
 
My wife is team Mayo but my kids and I are team Ketchup, she's getting rekt by the kids lol they won't stop harassing her about it >_<

Awhhhh...

Being married with someone who is a gamer sounds amazing...

I hope my future wife is a gamer.

Thanks for sharing. Like seriously. An adorable story.

happens when you don't know how to use grenades to push
 
I am convinced I will never, ever be able to get to B in any mode. It's fucking impossible for me. 4 straight losses. The last one, we controlled the tower for longer, and got it closer to the goal, and somehow still fucking lost. I don't get it. Why does this game hate me so fucking much. Why does this game want me to kill myself.
 
The Patrick memes are on another level with the mayo hate


Good

Plaza drawings are the best. :)

I might just hafta make that dummy Twitter account. I wanna post goofy stuff too. I'm still salty that my anime drawing cant get posted without social media.

?! Whoa! Don't give up!

this game is insanely swingy especially in the pits of ranked dont get discouraged, its like that for 99% of the people playing at those ranks

i mean i went on a 21 game tear in turf war which is a variety of players, then lost 6 games in a row with insane scores

i skipped ranks to get to S lucking out with good teammates most of the time then my mmr got so high i only played against s+ players and proceeded to lose 5 games in a row


you cant really carry a team in anything outside of turf war, MAYBE rainmaker, you need a not totally ass team but you get that 50% of the time, nothing anyone can do
 
Its really good. Trust me. :)

Sadly I'm a bit cynical with Nintendo's games. For instance I really don't like Arms. I think a lot of people get caught up in some sort of hype that I simply don't get. So I'm hoping that's not the case here.

I did play the first one a bit but it was mostly my fiances game. I kind of liked it but never learned to play with motion controls, I'm looking forward to the campaign and learning a new control scheme especially. I'm the type of guy that on regular games, will turn southpaw on because I think it's fun to learn new layouts/controls, so hoping that translates to learning this.

I was waiting till Arms got some more new content before I jumped in.

I think you would like Sp2. Its really addicting and frustrating and rewarding and exciting and... you get my point.

The fact that Splatoon 2 has managed to get me to stop playing my PS4... is impressive.

I mean, Splatoon 2 is a sequel to a game a lot of people liked, so it'd be pretty reductive to say people are only into it because they're caught in the hype. It just simply might not be for you lol
 
6 straight losses.
Sometimes the veterans are just out in force and there's nothing you can do. I had a wicked hard time increasing my rank last Sunday afternoon so I stopped and did other things. Then came back to rank much later that night and had a much easier time ranking up.
 
I love both mayo and ketchup, but between the two, mayo is the only one I ask for extra.

Also, Pearl the #GremlinGoddess is on Team Mayo.

SO MAYO IT IS.

also peeps post in my screenshots thread so it doesn't die

First time ever I've seen a Snoopy avatar in GAF. Much respect!

...


Whoa... Splatoon 2 has really impacted me. I'm usually a passionate and perverted hothead on GAF (which turns out people do find annoying!) but being in this thread and playing this game has really affected how I'm on GAF.
 
I won one, but only because the mode changed. And I followed it up with another loss.

I don't think I'll ever win another tower control game.
 
7 straight losses.

I had five losses before I said screw it and called it a day. Tower Control wasn't for me today. What sucks is two games we almost won, but the other team managed to get 1 or 2 points ahead and we could never get the lead again.
 
Holy shit my stupid fucking team let the other team waltz to the finish in literally 20 seconds. They were just fucking standing in the middle of the stage like fucking brainless morons while one dude carried the rainmaker by himself to the end.
 
PSA: there's more weapons in the game than the silver Aerospray. Thank you.

(God help me when they unlock the gold one)
 
I usually take a small break after 2 straight losses, really bad losses. I don't necessarily let it bother me but who likes to lose?

Or I just nope right out of that lobby. I pretend I'm playing with Enemy AI on hardest difficulty and my teammates are on easy/normal.

At least the games are 3 mins and not hour long sessions like MOBAs. Those games were dreadful.

But the Aerospray is so much fun!

Only downside is that I feel like it takes a million years to kill anybody. D:

Like my aim literally has to be perfect on somebody to kill them.
 
At lower ranks and without the benefit of teaming up with friends, there's nothing we can do about ranking up other than improving ourselves. In the C ranks, you have to carry. There's really no way around it. Sure, I'll complain about dumb teammates, because it does happen. But the majority of people in C rank are bad enough that bettering yourself just a little can put you in the position to carry your team and rank up.

Watch professional videos and pay attention to tactics they use. Try to change up your weapons. Make note of when things go wrong and consider what you could have done differently to change the out come in your favor. Odds are every time you've died there was something you could've done differently. Very few deaths are inevitable.

Up at the top tier ranks, splatoon is a hardcore muderfest where people can snipe you like crazy and accuracy and twitch skills are very important. But at lower levels, decision making is far more important than your aim. When to get on the tower, when and how to use specials, when to super jump, maintaining high ground, when to retreat, etc.

One of the biggest things I'd recommend is watching videos of high level play or trying to find pros that commentate matches. It's amazing how quickly you can improve when you have a teacher, even an indirect one.

Every post by you in here is about your damn noobish team mates. I start thinking the problem is not the other players, but you?
