N-Zap '89 is basically a gun version of the Inkbrush...
More subs and specials needed for the game confirmed. =P

I'm usually on iPad so atr0cious streams work sometimes and sometimes not so I don't check his page often, usually when he posts a link though I do. I would assume Master A1 is as well didn't ask directly but he does know of gaf.
Same on both accounts, there messages were there for a while, just decided to make that blinking sign go away lol. I also prefer AI, he should just change it lol
Edit: nice at the new weapons, been having a lot of fun lately playing weapons I don't usually play
I think people just gave it the nickname "Dynamo Brush", not officially called that.
As for comments, 'adecuate' is spelled 'adequate'.
Yea, I've always been using Master A1, but when I see his name in-game and see other people use AI, I thought I was wrong for a while lol.
This is really cool. Thanks for this.I´ve made an Excel sheet that helps you find the gear combination for a desired set of skills. Select 6 skills, press the button and the sheet will list the most likely gear combinations to get that skill setup. It works by considering the main skill of every piece of gear and the chance to get a skill as a sub depending on the gear brand.
it can be downloaded here:

It uses macros so you may get a security warning when you open it.
Any suggestions, comments...are welcome

Ink Resistance will probably be pointless with how wide the path is gonna be.

I haven't won a ranked game in 3 days. I don't even know which weapon to use anymore.

This is awesome. I've set mine up a couple days ago but did it by hand in a text file lol.
I think it was Splatoon's font makes it seem like an I, I only noticed when I was going through my friends list to make room for someone. Yeah ink resistance doesn't seem like it might be necessaryI think people just gave it the nickname "Dynamo Brush", not officially called that.

If Kas learned to use this lol, just imagine him faster and sneakier than ever

There really isn't anything better for the main shoes slot anyway, plus ink resistance is still useful if you need to be jumping through enemy ink.
Jeff Vader

I wish there were shoes that had ink resistance and ink saver main or sub as their preferred subs.

Shout out to morey towers for being the worst map in the game
Good luck getting teammates who use your beakons though :')
I officially retire from Tower Control. Even at the A+ level it is just a chaotic mess. It is heavily reliant on every single player on your team being competent. Even when I win, I feel unsatisfied. It would feel better for me if everything was slowed down (tower movement, respawn rate).
I tried the rapid blaster, didn't like it very much. not as slow as other blasters but still slow to cover ground, also iirc doesn't kill very fast even from close range.
what am I missing? ;<

Do you move faster in enemy ink if you combine ink resistance and run speed up as main abilities? Has anyone tested this?
why you dissin' the GoaT?
This depends...were you playing ranked or turf wars?

We'll see what the next Splatfest choices are for the moment, 2 Splatfest themes were available on the Wii's Everybody Votes Channel. Now, I am not sure if it is just a coincidence or not. It seems you were right and that Nintendo is recycling these old polls to use them as Splatfest themes.
According to several sources, the very first global poll was Do you prefer dogs or cats?:
http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/Everybody_Votes_Channel
Surprise surprise, what do I also see here? One of the first three regional polls in some region was Which do you prefer? -Eating -Sleeping (which is Europe's second Splatfest question)

In retrospect, it's a shame that nobody gathered all poll results and that they're no longer available from Nintendo's servers.

Too big and going against a team of snipers is no fun there
Jahranimo I hate it both modes lol
what weapon do you use?
PadWarrior
Member
I use the tentatek splattershot dual squelchers splattershot pro and splash o matic.
I've done well on the map a few times but I just don't find it fun at all. Doesn't help when your teammates aren't good either lol

Well, I guess I'm wrong on my weapon drop schedule. But, finally, the N-Zap '89 is dropping tonight, and the Kraken Brush!
Also, what 3 map do you think will be in Splatfest tomorrow?

I love that map. there are so many ways to approach situations and if I get caught on the other side I can usually get the fuck outta there and regroup.
I think I might like it so much because I get random splats all the time by lobbing splat bombs into the center without looking haha
PadWarrior
Member
Lol I may have to try that more with bombs
Oh, well I love the map. The map is definitely charger country, you just gotta keep an eye out when you're in the middle. I have the best success when using the gals and squelchers.
I'm calling Skatepark, Rig and one of the recent maps.

I'm not a charger so I won't even touch Moray without ninja squid on.
I think the best thing rollers need to do on that stage is rush to the enemy's side as quickly as possible. Kas is a beast on moray with his kraken roller, same with SM239 and the carbon roller

Yup, love when random A+ join then leave after messing up your mojo
it's really funny, I always lob out some splat bombs into the center and then randomly I'll see the notification that someone got splatted

My team this morning kept getting picked off and I was the only one who made it to the center up one ramp. But 3 of the 4 members were snipers and I was getting jumped
Most definitely
PadWarrior

I managed to splat a sniper like that this morning than the other 2 got me lol
Bluefin Depot is what did it for me, mainly because I could tell when other players were doing it against me.
It's also made me extremely cautious about approaching a ledge I know has an inkable/climbable wall under it. Probably a little too cautious
yeah I've noticed that randoms really like chilling near the ledge just above the center. I'll peek over real quick and they'll just be right there waiting. after smh I splat them.
Port Mackerel encouraged me to that except it was around the corner and for only a second.
I hope Bluefin and Moray are on Turf War eventually. I found some cool hiding spots that I want to try out in an actual game lol.
Yea, it is the best shoes ability. I just prefer having as much Special Charge Up now while using the brush, so I always use my Orange Arrows. Until some crazy person rolls Special Charge Up on Ink Resistance shoes, I'll probably just continue using that.
I never had to be cautious on port......until playing with GAF lol
GAF rooms on urchin and port had me like "ohhhhhh, this is how the map is actually supposed to work"

I love doing this, especially as a non-Squiffer/Kelp Charger. I once had someone try to do this at Bluefin when I was using the E-Liter. Needless to say, I lept off, did a lightning quick 180, and tossed 2 Burst Bombs at the wall, and splatted them. =D It would have worked if the guy rushed, but nope. Bad call by him.
