I got myself to Level 20 and B rank on ranked battles~!
I'm feeling good, and I love the Gold Dynamo Roller for ranked battles. Tactical Inkstrikes have secured my teams victories.

Join people on your friends list until the room is filled with gaf members. That's how it works.
Looking forward playing with you. We have to wait until August for private lobby but you can join your friends but not in ranked matches.

The problem is: Everyone wants to be the carry. But you obviously lose a game about map control if everyone runs around just looking for kills. Sure, it gives you a couple of seconds, but if no one uses them to actually pursue the goal of the match then kills really mean nothing.
After the Splatfest Promo i really expect a replay mode after E3.

You're going down, Enforced
How is that tactical?

So... generally I guess the idea is to avoid this happening in the first place, but what do you guys do if your team wipes? Which is to say, everyone on your team dying simultaneously, or within about 10 seconds of each other. Do you try and pair yourself up with someone else to do a combined push? Or try to sneak around and steal territory that the enemies will hopefully neglect?
I find a team wipe to be the absolute worst situation in Splatoon, and unfortunately for me this happens pretty often in randoms unless I hold myself back. That's basically 10+ seconds of the enemy getting to ink everywhere and with no place for the team to converge outside of the spawn point.

Im like a second behind that sm guy and I can't do anything to stop him.
His inkzooka shots don't show up until theyre right on top of me

The roller guy take care of covering the most surface, splatters open the way for the roller, charger defend friend zone (mostly statics).
Not sure if a team of chargers would stand a chance against a team of rollers.
How much experience do you have with the roller?
other way around, I'd say
you need ink for ambushes, otherwise they're just sitting ducks
We can always try it come August ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).
rollers couldn't leave spawn after a minute of game
Zero, I don't like it. I'm a charger kinda of guy.
Rollers should be slower :/, they need have something to offset all their advantages.
I just want to play it with friends. The game has two multiplayer modes and I can't play half of them with my friends. Why is this?
Non-lagging rollers already suck enough. They're fine as they are.

Really loving the Dual Squelcher with echo locator and clothes that massively increase my special charge rate. I get that shit charged within 10 secs of a round starting. The sub weapon rarely gets kills but is good suppression
RIP
God I wonder what other major events are going to be weirdly represented in Splatoon miiverse over time
Damn you're good.

Hey everyone, I asked this last night but it got buried really quick.
What the hell is up with the additional time that appears under the normal timer in ranked? I understand overtime but I'm having a hard time figuring out the additional time that gets added on.
And how do I see my picture I posted to Miiverse? It's really funny and I want a picture, haha.
Thanks!

I honestly think that many things (lack of region matchmaking, friend lobbies, drip feeding the content etc.) in this game are explained by their worry of diminishing player base.
More like they worried about HAVING a player base to begin with.

I think 2 is enough to severely punish people who step into the ink for even a split-second since that is the whole point of Damage Up on that thing. That would give you another slot to do whatever with.
Depends, are we counting the brush as a roller? I think a brush team could get past a charger team, but not necessarily win.
If the team that has the zone loses control of the zone and the opposing team takes control of the zone, then the team that had it before gets additional penalty time. You have to get the penalty time to 0 before your actual timer goes down.

Thanks! I guess I just don't understand what dictates the amount of penalty time given, it seems so random
You get more time the closer you are to winning.

I started using a gimmicky route to the middle in Arowana Mall; shooting the wall to the right of the ramp and then jumping across to it. Charger is great for inking this path but terrible for abusing it, since you can't really attack whilst cresting over the wall. But this strategy at least gets me onto the middle platform safely during the start-game rush.
The game part of this game is fantastic, but little omissions like this on the feature side are pretty big "wat.son" moments for me. :lol
BTW, those matches we had earlier in Kelp Dome were great. I really wish there was a highlights mode in this game like Mario Kart TV.
The final boss was real tough. Wish the single player was longer has a TON of potential. It was actually fun to play through. EAD wizards deliver once again.
I definitely agree with the poster who wanted the single player to be longer. Now to look for all the scrolls!
Also for online, why does everyone skip home base terrain and just try to go mid/take over the ther team's terrain?
I'll remix your face! Also credits track is so good

Its unlike any of the other maps, and I personally really like it. Its like a siege the fort sort of map when playing in Ranked.
Wow how did I not see that? Nice find.
