Splatoon |OT| Squidstyler

So far only perk I really like is ninja squid. That shit is great... though I'm curious how often people can spot swimming anyways... they seem pretty oblivious to it most the time.


edit: Also PLEASE nintendo, add 1 or 2 more songs to multiplayer. The song is great.. but I don't know how long I can take it.

I don't know how invisible is ninja squid, but you can spot swimming movement because the ink ripples a bit. If Smith was using ninja squid, which I think he was, then he was pretty invisible to me.

Best way to counter that is to carefully ink away all the possible routes and close the squid down. Problem is you definitely waste a lot of time just chasing one guy.

I know you can see people normally, I'm just curious how observant the average player is. I mean if they're not going to notice you anyways, then it may not be as good as I think. That along with echo locator which makes it useless.
 
Also, I kinda feel like people are a little too obsessed with perks. Most of their effects are miniscule and are easily overcome by being a better player. Your +3 defence perks don't mean shit if you don't see me coming and I ambush you. It's just the main perks like recon, ink resist or that kinda thing that can matter, and even then they seem to support playstyles better rather than entirely shift your capabilities as a player.

tl;dr git gud

Only because people aren't at the level for minmax to really matter yet. :p

I'd like to see someone running with E-Litre 3K with attack up bonuses because you can start one shot splatting people with half charge.

Oh it matters a ton when you're in a one vs. one situation. It's night and day really if you two are playing hide and seek. If you just use it to ambush people then it's not really that big of a deal imo.
 
I get a lot of kills with the roller from seeing the ripple. But you're right I doubt the average player sees it. However GAF lobbies aren't filled with the average player either.
 
For those of you who use the Splattershot Jr., what's your average score (bonus included).
 
Been playing roller almost exclusively. Finally unlocked ranked mode today and got wrecked. Need to learn other guns ...

The roller is great for racking up kills in Ranked. I've used both the Dynamo and Gold Dynamo Rollers with great success. Will try the other rollers eventually.
 
I hate ranked so much. I work my ass off and get nothing for it because the team does nothing. It's such a waste of time. That, and I've had 3 matches in a row where we started a man down and got routed. They need to give you something, even 500p, for losing. It's just a pointless enterprise to work so hard and have nothing for it because half your team doesn't move at the start of the game.

Edit: and first game in the normal mode and I get over 1100+. Fuck ranked mode.
 
God fucking damn the aerospray is insane. I had my first 1500 game (including the bonus) with it and went 9-0. I'm also on a 16.5 winning streak and have led my team by a lot every time. The special (ink strike) is great too. This gun is just crazy. I used to only get 900-1000 with the bonus when using the Tentatek Splattershot so thats saying something.
 
Do weapons in the store disappear if you don't buy it for too long? I thought I saw the Aerospray but didn't buy it, and now I don't see it. Level 16 here. Maybe I was dreaming about it...

No, they don't. Aerospray requires you to have beaten the third boss in single-player.
 
Feel like I need to change from the .52 Gal Deco in ranked mode and need to specialize more. Thinking maybe the Eliter 3K, since that's pretty fun so far. Any other suggestions?
