Are there any youtubers who regularly post opinion and helpful info on Splatoon? Kind of like Stylosa and Overwatch Central do with Overwatch.

Thatsrb2dude. One of the best players in the West, chill guy and very active on Twitch and Youtube.

How do the end of the game scores for ranked games work? Based on kills? Doing the objective?

Hidden MMR

 

[XaosWolf]

Found the best argument against Salmon Run being time limited: People seem to forget how to fucking play.

Boy howdy, trying to manage voice chat on a separate device while playing online is really annoying.

Denise Richards is awesome... but you Mayo mains are doomed.

 

[Gsnap]

Also splitting ranks between the modes helps a lot. A lot of times your rank would taaaaaaaaaank in the modes you suck at and you'd rubber band a lot.

Yeah it's one of the best new additions. It matches how I feel about my play far more than other games with ranked modes, making me more likely to play more. I'm clearly worse at rainmaker, and so my rank reflects that.

Thanks, I've seen him around but never really checked his channel until now.

Such a good feeling when you splat a roller. Those guys are annoying.

I prefer ketchup, and I went team ketchup, but then I think... A lot of kids will probably pick ketchup instead of mayo, which ultimately could backfire on me...
But then Marina picked ketchup, and maybe some people will pick it just because of her..


AHH TOO MANY FACTORS

You made the right choice.

Trust me.

SP2 is a young adult's game now. We're taking over. Cya, kids!

He's not quite like stylosa. He's a pro, so his videos are mostly playing, whereas stylosa has a bunch of overanalyzed videos. Those are far more helpful (for me at least) since he really goes into depth about strategies, tactics, and quick decision making.

I'm not sure if there's anyone who does that for splatoon. If there is, I'd love if someone would link it.

If you want something more analytical, you've got FLC. He doesn't post videos for the moment but he has a blog.

The game is ass

but when you get into a firefight with three people and kill all of them

Bring it! I'll try not to get filthy ketchup stains on my fresh gear

 

[Koren]

Why??

(It's a real question, I'm really curious... I can understand being annoyed by some snipers, but how rollers are annoying?)

I greatly prefer mayo, but I think I am going to have to ketchup just because I'm pretty sure it is going to win.

In popularity or in skill? Because it's far from uncommon that the most popular side is the losing one...

 

[watershed]

I consider snipers to be a good challenge. Rollers are just annoying.

I leave lobbies with snipers in them tbh, can't do with it. I'm supposed to be having fun with this game.

 

[Shauni]

Once you get to a certain point, Rollers really aren't shit. Occasionally you run into one that's got their camp and flick game down, but even then they mostly have shit all range.

Hi, new here just signed up. Bought myself a Nintendo Switch splatoon 2 bundle today and looking forward to perhaps play with some of you on here. Nintendo has tempted me to start playing games again.

Still going through all the settings trying to learn and setup everything on the console.

But I wanted to complain a little being surprised that the bundle simply came with a download code and not the cartridge and then Nintendo doesn't even reward you Nintendo reward points because it isn't a physical copy lol if I had known I would have just bought it stand alone Switch with physical copy of the game for an extra 10 euros or whatever.

I hope I like the game now especially since I can never sell or trade it.

 

[Revolutionary]

Does the Splatfest tee go away once the event is over?

 

[Gsnap]

At least in this game they have charge time and a laser sight. They're far more manageable and far less annoying than other shooters.

 

[lyrick]

Found a new friend

 

[Malo]

Yes.

 

[Koren]

I consider snipers to be a good challenge.

Well, in some cases, it can be, but sometimes it'll take half a minute just to reach the sniping point, and in some modes/maps, you can't afford so much time wasted...

Rollers are just annoying.

Again, I'm curious, I'd like to know why...

 

[Mediking]

Snipers who are just playing are fine. Snipers who are camping and are playing hide and seek are the worst. They're almost as bad as people who spawn kill.

I downloaded Splatoon 2 because I didn't feel like waiting on Amazon.

Lemme check if we can get Nintendo points...

....

WOW. Lmao that's terrible. Game card only?

 

[Koren]

Damn, I forgot about the tee thing... That makes a good number of abilities unavailable for splatfest, it's unfortunate :/

 

[TheNamelessOne]

Just got a Switch and Zelda and I'm looking for more switch games. Is this worth picking up if I'm not really interested in playing a lot of online matches.

Might be a bit OT, but I'm also open for other game suggestions, but perhaps in PM.

I thought that digital was rewarding you with like 4 times as many points as physical?

Especially now they can swim a bit and keep it charged for a small while.

Huh? All digital games give My Nintendo points automatically. They even give way more points than physical versions. WAY more.

Better when you jump over the roller and then splat them.

 

[chogidogs]

I would like to know about the roller hate too. I use it cause I can't aim with the joycons. Waiting to get a pro controller to see if it improves my aim.

Game card only. I don't see how they can offer a valid excuse for that. Not that I was looking for it, just felt like rubbing salt in the wound after bundle was just a download code and not the cartridge and game case.

 

[lyrick]

60 gold coins as usual

It auto gives you the points.

I think you can press + or - in the dasboard and get to a menu where you can reclaim your

useless

Nintendo Points.

 

[Ogodei]

I'm going to try team Mayo because i'm more likely to get more matches versus the other team. If it were Ketchup v Mustard i'd know how to vote (love mustard, am ambivalent towards ketchup and mayo. I only have ketchup in my fridge because of a specific recipe i made that called for it).

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Not required when it's digital. It's automatic.

I'll be staying out of the upcoming Splatfest, due to how I despise mayonnaise and ketchup in equal measure.

Gonna miss out on those super sea snails though

 

[deoee]

What does Ketchup add to food?

It's sweet most of the time (at least in eu), it doesn't taste like Tomato at all, if you open it and let it stay around it get's this disgusting "Ketchup-Cum", you can't make any nice dips or salads with it...

Never fear :^)

We got the Nintendo points!

Its a good game if you are planning to play online for a few hours, the single player offline content is super short so dont buy it if you dont want to play online at all.

 

[Nameless]

The Splatoon gods have been cruel in their matchmaking today, Jesus Christ. 2 other Aeros on the team and neither can break 500. Not even sure how that's possible.

It says "game card version only." If i click it asks me to insert it.

 

[deoee]

Fuck this game and it's connections sometimes.

Why can't it reconnect if I lose internet for not even one second???
WHY?
Where is the fucking problem to re-establish everything with a ~1 sec disconnect?
nearly every game has the capability to do so

 

[Nightii]

Just curious, what are your thoughts on people that play defensively on fighting games?

 

[Effigenius]

Ketchup and Mayo should merge to become fry sauce and battle mustard.

Just curious, what are your thoughts on people that play defensively on fighting games?

And as long as we are asking about unrelated things, how do you feel about the new Lorde album?
