Why does the game rob you from your exp when playing ranked when you are about to level up? I only needed a tiny bit of exp to get to B+. After winning Rainmaker, I only got that tiny bit of exp and nothing more. The exp bar should fill up more and not stop at the beginning B+. Wtf!

Eh, I find it more annoying when people try to squid party. At least when they afk there could be a legitimate reason. Squid party is just people wasting time...
And it's bad for me cuz I suck lol I'm stuck at c- but I don't wanna change weapons

Play ranked, people don't leave in ranked

I gave a solution a couple pages back. Doesnt affect the people who DC. But for the 3 man teams it gives them a fighting chance.
When someone DC's, the 3 man team gets a buff like 'tenacity' or ink armour that just gives them a bit of a boost where you would have to shoot them a few extra times to kill. It could help balance things out, i think.
I said this earlier and I'm quoting this because it is true!!
Also, Ranked is fun and gets a lot better when you get to B- or above. This may seem daunting because C is total chaos but I know all of you can do it!
Level 12 Get!
Left the Tentatek Splattershot with its Freshness intact and moved onto my favourite weapon yet: The Splattershot Pro. That bit of extra range and damage is wonderful for the way I play and the rain cloud is perfect for pulling enemies out of their hiding spots and sometime just flat out panicking.
Been playing things more carefully and focusing on zoning people out from a vantage point. Worked pretty well so far.
Those Squelcher Duelies are legit too so may play with those a bit at some point too.
Best leave it on a high note for tonight though. =)

For a certain number of matches. There's a counter at the top right with your money. Usually 20 matches.
Lasts for 20 games.

You would think at B+ rank people would know better than to squid jump into a pile of shit...

If your wearing a mayo t-shirt, you may not feel it - BUT you are indeed fresh.
If it's a ketchup t-shirt your wearing, then I fully understand why you don't feel fresh.

No time to quit in ranked because they already got KO'd.
I knew there was a reason I left out which team I was on!You chose ketchup, didn't you?
That would explain that not so fresh feeling.
EDIT: Wait, you both chose mayo. Sorry.
So I have a question: say you are interested to learn using a weapon for the ranked modes -- what do you do? How do you practise? Do you try it on turf wars or go straight to ranked matches?
It's an honest question. I just feel like going for turf wars isn't the best because in the beginning I would probably suck, and I'd hate to make peoole lose. Also, it really looks like some weapons aren't that useful in this mode. If only I could fight against bots.

I'll echo the sentiment about the splattershot pro, it's nice. Took me a while, but I finally found a weapon I'm comfortable with.
It's not overpowered like the Tri Slosher and (perhaps) Octobrush, and yet it's still quite powerful. Good range, damage, yeah, I think I'll stick with it for now.
Just do ranked, you won't get a fair assessment or good practice with a weapon playing turf wars. Very specific weapons are good at that mode, and some that suck on turf, are great at everything else.
It's not your fault you can't try out these modes in a non-ranked mode.

Wouldnt the same logic apply even more to ranked?

Play for kills in Turf Wars. Playing like garbage in Turf Wars is still going to give you 3 minutes of practice. Playing like garbage in Ranked...

Woohoo! Finally at A- in everything. Went on an atrocious losing streak in Rainmaker B+, was convinced I'd derank, then went on a straight 11 win streak in ranked. Got 27 kills in one match, hit that zone where everything feels like you're in the Matrix and grenades are just minor inconveniences.
I test every weapon I'm interested in in Turf Wars. It is the most casual mode and while I certainly don't want to cause my team to lose there is little penalty to doing so compared to Ranked so it is a better fit.
Yes, and that's why I'm not sure about what I should be doing...
To the other guys: thanks for the reply and yep, I guess that makes sense. I really needed the opinion of people who are being playing Splatoon for more time than me.

Try out new weapons in turf wars.
Ugh, I lost the majority of my online matches today. Statistic says 17 won, 33 lost. My points are mostly 800 - 900.
Am I just bad or do I have some bad luck with my teams?
I'm very frustrated right now
Get out of lobby afer a loss and try again for matchmaking.

How far are you in ranked? If you're still in the C bracket, it's honestly whatever. However, trying out new weapons on b+ or a, might be a little annoying for your teammates.

Take a break and come back after a bit.

Its just the way it goes sometimes man. Ill have matches where ill go 36 -14. Then ill get matches where ill 15 - 35.
Usually if i lose 3 in a row, ill leave a lobby and join a new one.

It's the worst. Game should get punished left and right for this. It ruins it completely.

They shouldn't punish the players because of disconnects. This is the single biggest issue for me. That and dualies. Remove them, pls.

Yes of course, that's another thing. The game itself should handle it differently.
C- in Splat Zones (welp), B- in Tower Control, B+ in Rainmaker. I have been playing the game for just four days now, and these scores are probably going down again (which is fine to me). Never played the first Splatoon, too.
Maybe I'll try to experiment in Splat Zones, the only mode in which I have been not able to do something really useful using my favourite weapon (Octobrush).
These moments are the best.

C- to A rank in a bit over an hour. F- yeah, tower control mode was my favourite in splatoon 1 and I've still got it.
(Game went C- then B then A rank in jumps, which I was surprised, assumed I'd have to work it up step by step after the first one). I'm dreading he murder fest that is S rank though, oh boy.

I wish they weren't so rare.
Holy fuck just used the callie and marie amiibo in Splatoon 1 that was a fuckin pleasant surprise.
Never knew they lterally transform the plaza in a splatfest show! Omg this is so awesome.
Even callie va marie splatfest posts show up if you do from people....
Omg...
(was replaying the final boss of 1 after replaying the final boss in 2 so i figured might aswell use the amiibo for once in 1)
Edit: i am literally weightlifting now with my dumbells, so much does the music pump me up lol.

Usually Splattershots and things of that ilk. They'll outrange stuff like Dualies and Aerosprays but still kill reasonably fast.
