Especially when you accidentally trigger your super on some small fry...
I swear I suck with any charge weapon given to me in Salmon Run.

Salmon Run this time requires heavy teamwork. Heavy splatling loses ink really fast, and the let's not forget about how the charger can easily be flanked by the mob.
So for me this time, only play Salmon Run with friends.

Heavy Splatling is super useful against some bosses and special waves, please don't hate it. I love that mothership killer.
I don't know how we won that game. Our octobrush dropped out in the last round, so we were left with a heavy splatling, charger, and dualies for a low-tide event. We dropped to one squid left with bosses all over the place several times, but somehow at the last second we got the final egg in.

The problem this time is the synergy between weapons. Just doesnt work.
"From a distance." Doesn't work very well when you have a high tide event.
Finally got a B- in Rainmaker and even got to the 'Ok' mark without any cracks in my bar. Changing my weapon really helps since I am usually one or two in my team instead of last or second to last. My kills also increase to 8-10 to 10-18. I also only got into one game that was a stomped for my side. Every other game I lost, the other side had to fight for it.
It feels like I am actually improving
Also, all buckets and brushes in rank can go burn somewhere. God, I hate those users, especially the brush users who hides in those tight corner that you can't shoot.

What is the current set? Will check SR once I'm done at work.
Any charge weapons lose its advantage at high tide, but heavy Splatling at least has quick fire rate to manage up close encounters.
Don't agree. The Splatling is great in Salmon Run, especially low tides where you waste the fodder. The mini Splatling, however, kind of sucks though.
I really miss the Splatfest music. And Kraken Up from Splatoon 1. I don't have any jams in the current battle songs.
If there's ever more than one at high tide... well. Goldie Rush at high tide is pretty bad too.

Overall worst mode is still the hide and seek bullshit round

I agree. And that's not only because most people don't know what's happening.
It's actually not that bad if you keep jumping over the swame two ledges back and forth. Except if your temmates are stupid
or kids
Its just not fun even when you know what you're doing. I pray that I get hide and seek during high tide so its not as tedious.
Just reskins of normal weapons. Hero Splattershot fires like the normal Splattershot though.
And just in case: No you can't unlock the Hero Brella yet. =(

That's not what I said. What I said was that the synergy between the weapons for Salmon Run today, doesnt work.
Octobrush, splat dualies, heavy splatling, goo tuber

I've had success leading the grillers in circles. I know there's a good place you can do that in Marooner's Bay at high tide. Haven't tried it in the Spawning Grounds though.

Also you can't even unlock the umbrella (because it's not unlocked in online yet...). I tried. thought it would be fun to be the only umbrella online

Try jumping back and forth between the top of the map, right next to the egg-basket over the water to the other side. It's awesome.
The trouble, for me, is that SR actually requires a lot of teamwork and coordination. Particularly if you get nasty waves like grillers at high tide.
With no voice chat possible in random groups it just makes the mode unbelievably frustrating unless playing with friends as you can't even helpfully explain to your group what to do. You're just praying they know.
The random weapons doesn't help either as you can get sets like today which are tricky to use and need good coordination to make work properly. The sort of coordination which is rare in pick up groups.
Some weapons are also seriously hard to use in SR. if you get someone who's never used a charger before having to use it then you're in for a rough time as chargers in SR need to be used in quite a specific way in my experience.

Haha I get that. What is actually good is when you've met the quota, there's a crapton of bosses in one part of the map, everyone's dead but one teammate and he's smart enough to know he should just wait it out on the other side of the map.

It also needs a " INK THE FLOOR" button

I swear to god they need to improve the tick rate something criminal. I just died from clear behind a wall, it's monstrously infuriating.
I just had the most trollish game of my entire Splatoon career. First one of our team members D/C and we had an actually troll on our team who did nothing but same 'Booyah'. So it was just me and another player doing everything. To add insult to injury, the group we were up against were a bunch of low-level newbies who I soloed without dying, giving my 14 kills. Lost by .2%.
WTF game?

Also some really blur pics of future weapons and maps.
I'm gonna guess the blurred pictures in order are the Splat Brella, Ship map from the Direct,
the Squeezer from the recent datamine leaks
Good to know I shouldn't feel bad in some of these ranked matches then.
It'll be like removing my weighted clothing when I move back to Aus.

Full werewolf off the buckle
Look up the 8bitdo FC30 Pro. Just got one yesterday. Cheaper than the official, looks sick as hell, and really nicely built.

Heavy Splatling is bad in every mode tho.

nah decent in splatzones.
Treat it like a slightly more aggressive charger that can cover more area
unfortunately I play like every single weapon is an aerospray
Antiwhippy
the holder of the trombone
These kind of inklings are the WORST.

a.k.a. a worse charger
Sounds like a better description for the hydra whenever it comes out.
the stingray is for flyfish. dodge the lazers and dont stand on top of everyone
It's for anything that people are too busy to get to and too far away but will kill you all if you ignore them. 3 Stingers is definitely a Sting Ray situation.
