Suction bombs are OP btw 
And I still have to find a way to work around dynamos on this mode, any ideas?

Hummm interesting idea blue! That way the sprinkler is such a easy target to all those freaking bombs

Was thinking of sprinkler on tower when I was considering .96. I'll have to try that I suppose.
Its fun

Oh, hey, a new mode!
Is death a mode?
You don't see that many jet squelchers, but I just played one and I was like this range is nuts, that's not fair.

I feel like my first match with GAF every night always results in a comm. error. So annoying.
Yeah I actually think this may a biit unbalanced, its range is crazy, It actually got me to camp because it was just so effective and I rarely camp on games.

So who is on about now? let me know so I can add you.
I'm so used to the dual squelcher having the longest range the shooters in a match that when someone does use a jet squelcher and is shooting at me from afar I'll just walk forward to shoot them before realizing "Wait my shots aren't hitting them SHIT I'M DYING"
They should have better rule explanations. They dont say in turf wars that walls dont count. They dont explain overtime in splatzones. They dont remark how the tower moves faster the parts of the track it has been through. Clearly everyone who follows media or forums will know all these things, but there are a lot of newbies who dont learn this stuff for a while because the game doesnt explain it to them.
Watching Warchamp's stream, I kinda never want to plat Tower Control on Mall. Jesus these chargers...
On another note:
Firefin brand, you da real MVP.

They also could open their eyes and understand by themselves since the game is indeed providing you with everything to do that except writing it and putting it in your face.

Tower Control is extremely frantic at first, and clearly very young. team coordination is more important than ever. Bubblers appear dominant at first with their ability to transfer to allies, but killer wails and merely shooting at bubblers with higher ranged weapons will be effective
one thing's certain, this is splatoon's most offensive and aggressive mode. I do love that all three feel very distinct.
curious how they'll handle the coexistence of all three known ranked modes once they're all released

There is nothing better than sitting on top of the tower block and picking guys off from miles away with the dual squelcher; I really really like the "Tower Control" mode, it's much more fun and frantic than splatzones.
You mean between B- and C-?
It is pretty good, but I guess is somehwhat balanced in that its sub weapon isn't very good and the kraken isn't as useful as other super weapons (equolocator, inkstrike, bubbler, killer wail)
My entire game is based on outranging people though.

Yeah I think this is gonna be my playstyle as well, finally have decided on a weapon for each mode.
Splat-o-Matic: Turf War
Dual Squelcher: Splatzones
Custom Jet Squelcher: Tower Control
You don't switch based on map?
Not usually, I mostly play shooter weapons, so its mostly a difference of fire rate/damage/range that I guess I find more universally useful by a mode-basis than map-basis.
Plus, for Turf War, splat-o-matic seems to be good enough in that mode for any map either way.
Warehouse and Underpass are kind of meh in Tower Control, but Mall and Bluefin feel like they were designed around this mode. The large maps seem to benefit the most from the new gameplay elements. It will be hard to go back to Turf Wars now
Which brings the question of how ever they designed the game to support playing with friends only in one mode is beyond me. I assume August update will rectify this.
Currently turf wars with friends is about as intense as ranked with randoms. I wonder how turf war will compare after the august update.
Anyone have some good Splatoon music remixes?
Love the splat-o-matic, such a fun weapon. Only map I don't like it in is Bluefin Depot
So Fresh
Tower Control is a lot of fun, managed to get 99 points at A+.
The only annoying thing is when the enemy team has 3 good rollers and they spam everything. If your team has only long range weapons you can't ink the place and move around :-/ Thankfully that happened only once. What I enjoy is the balance in this mode. I only once once in a few seconds.

I love it when I once once.

As of right now, yeah.
Let's wait until it's a global 2 million seller before dividing the player base more. Especially now that kids go back to school in a month or so
