Great games. So many tense moments when I spot Sendou and realise I can't aim my Charger for toffee

 

[Zero²]

The chargers on your team had some interesting strategies. Especially enjoyed the one that played the same way you do with a Brush.

Ninja charger? Thats a first

 

[MrOogieBoogie]

Whoever Ivan is, gonna try to join you!

 

[Kastrioti]

Internet connection is bugging out right now and I think it's me. Going to try to log on a couple more times or just play single player.

 

[ivanthebearable]

Whoever Ivan is, gonna try to join you!

That would be me!

Also: I hate Inkzooka so much. Blah.

 

[Sendou]

Ninja charger? Thats a first

No, one that smashes the shoot button

Then there was the other Charger that never left the spawn on the Rig. What a beautiful couple.

 

[DrArchon]

Is anyone else here having lag problems tonight? I got done being massacred by teleporting rollers for the last 5 or so matches and I wanted to make sure it wasn't me having issues with my internet.

 

[Azure J]

Are ya busy Daboss?

 

[DaBoss]

Are ya busy Daboss?

[MrOogieBoogie]

Gonna come on now.

I'm constantly getting kicked from matches and being told I don't have internet connection.

 

[Heng]

I swear, they need to have a minimum requirement of a certain internet speed to play a roller. I got killed by someone who didn't even attack me until after I died.

 

[Geg]

Man I only wanted to play a little before the stage change because I wanted to do a few matches on Bluefin Depot

Cue 15 matches in a row on saltspray rig

 

[DaBoss]

On mobile, what's your ID?

I'll join you two in ranked.

I'm not able to play at the moment, but I added you. Only played for one game.

Btw, you can't join friends in ranked battles, only in Regular Battles.

 

[Azure J]

Gonna come on now.

Thanks man.

Gonna try and see if I can grind 60K out fast for the extra two slots.

 

[PreyingShark]

Hi, I'm Nathan. I'm done for the night because otherwise I would have gotten arrested for murdering my teammates.

You must be really unlucky.

 

[Azure J]

Wow, I had my single most awesome set of KOs in that match. I guess I deserved that last second snipe after getting SM239 with the dash and slash earlioer. :lol

 

[ivanthebearable]

"You Got Splatted By: muscleboy"

 

[Heng]

Does Bluefin exist? I've gotten it maybe twice in 2 hours.

 

[Azure J]

Seriously fuck the evil assholes who thought a stage like Bluefin was OK

[Zero²]

The room is full? Starting the game right now!

 

[Azure J]

And fuck the designer that felt like randomizing teams was a good idea.

 

[Jintor]

no talk of jintor :<

jintor playstyle not memorable

 

[phanphare]

9:0 I said got dayum


(I won't repeat that lol)

 

[Geg]

And fuck the designer that felt like randomizing teams was a good idea.

I'm fine with the randomization theoretically but often times it never seems to put certain people on my team even after playing with them for like 30 minutes

I'm pretty sure I've played two matches in a row that had identical teammates

 

[ivanthebearable]

What are the best tactics for Inkbrush while on Bluefin Depot? I usually just put sprinklers on the bridge while i go to the other side of our area and assassinate anyone that tries to enter our side

 

[Zero²]

And fuck the designer that felt like randomizing teams was a good idea.

Yeah I cried a bit everytime you went on my team yesterday...
Ehh time to play squid jump

 

[Azure J]

YO I WAS SOOOO HAPPY I DIED ON THE UNPAINTABLE SURFACE SM239, LMAO

no talk of jintor :<

jintor playstyle not memorable

I haven't played you enough. We should fix that.

?

 

[PreyingShark]

And fuck the designer that felt like randomizing teams was a good idea.

Did you see the teams I got when we played together earlier? I... I... I couldn't.

 

[JCX]

Anyone playing now?

 

[Mr. Patch]

no talk of jintor :<

jintor playstyle not memorable

It's okay. No one notices me either lol

 

[Jintor]

I haven't played you enough. We should fix that.

ya timezones... if thread chatter is any indication i'm usually working while you guys are playing. heng and 2krill are the usual peeps on by the time I get off work.

maybe weekend mornings might be doable

 

[phanphare]

last one before the map switch

 

[Zero²]

Anyone playing now?

Playing with Heng

 

[Shizuka]

Who do I need to add to join GAF matches?

 

[phanphare]

lol, azure that double splat we had was hilarious

we both did the same thing, danced around a bit, set off our ink strikes, missed, then danced around some more and killed each other

 

[Zero²]

.



?

You sucked with that charger.

 

[Mocha Nova Coffee Scotia]

Well seem to have gotten locked into a lobby before the map update and can't do anything

 

[Vecks]

Who do I need to add to join GAF matches?

I'm just playing randoms right now, but you can add me if you want. NNID:Vecks0

 

[Mocha Nova Coffee Scotia]

Had to wait until it timed out since no one could join a lobby that played on maps not in rotation

Just got into rank B! My last match came down to 1 point win! This game can get real intense.

"A" rank matches must be insane.

 

[Mocha Nova Coffee Scotia]

That feeling when you hit someone enough to kill then see a bubble shield pop up afterwards

 

[jholmes]

Why do people in ranked splat zone matches spend most of their time on the other side of the map trying to build up for an inkstrike? I want to slap those people every single time.

Otherwise known as I was at 90 points on C+ but quickly wound up back at 34.

 

[PreyingShark]

Okay.

I wouldn't pay $$$ for that outfit.

Random tangent: Those Squee-G things from single player would be the coolest sub weapon ever.

Rush down. No seriously. This is a stage where Always Be Coloring is tested to its max. You have to take a lot of chances here but you can still make good plays as long as you remember to use Sprinklers liberally and target the most out of reach perches or awnings when tossing them. Whenever you see snipers and you're on the low ground vs. them, RUN. Try to circle around until you get to a point where you can throw the sprikler to disrupt the area behind them. That will force them to take a moment to deal with it and give you some breathing room or even mount a sneak attack if you're confident in your ability to approach them on their turf.

You also want to make sure that you pair up with teammates with long range support since getting up the walls into your base or the opponent's base is quite rough on your own. The most "consistent" means I've come up with to do this by myself is to throw a sprinkler horizontally onto the metal awning and hope some ink splashes on the wall.
