Everybody is already way better than you
But seriously I'm going to laugh when you finally get a better connection and you can't hit shit without the lag

When I'm not lagging my kill count doubles and my splatted count halves.
I was just thinking how clever it would be to use a name like that as a cover up to make enemies not take you seriously then destroy them.

I actually believe you, from my experience you lag and move for me in slow motion making it easier to kill you so it probably happens to others. Violet's lag is a little different from yours from my experience he doesn't move in slow motion his ink sometimes just doesn't show up or he kills you after you already killed him.
I always thought that it would be clever to change my mii name to one of yours and play terribly to ruin your name lol.
lol, my neighbors probably think I'm nuts for the random shit I yell out during tower control

Yeah Lunas are terrible to deal with but it must be done. And right now my team decided to play turf war instead of going for the tower... 2 rollers and a brush. GG's
No need to I can do it by myself just fine.
I prefer it when people don't focus on me the whole game just saying
Blaster are easy to deal with when you got the .96 gal, the problem are the fucking charger, and teammate who don't know what they are doing
I second that. Shit gets crazy whenever the tower gets to the narrow pathway just near the end. So intense.
You gotta earn that rank man.
Lol pretty much

I did a quick recon and that stage is gonna be a bitch to get a KO on I think with my splash o matic.
well damn
the lag doesn't really affect my aim, just the position of the opponent players. Tbh I gladly trade corner kills for the ability to react to enemy fire and no more Splattershot Jr. with Jet Squelcher range. Playing with a laggy connection is just incredibly frustrating

But I'm barely a mid B currently!
This tower mode is where they hurt the most.
Personally I never mind playing with you because it's usually us both killing each other, but it will be nice to finally have you back playing with us. How much longer until you upgrade your connection, you said middle of July if I remember correctly.

Yeah, I was making fun of you all the time but when I was having network issues the lag was making it easier for people to splat me and harder for me to splat them because I was always a step behind. Lag is only beneficial if you're the host or closer to the servers really.
Edit: Actually thinking about it more it depends on the direction the lag is happening. If the lag is on DL then you'll be behind everyone and life will be pretty hard but if the lag is on UL then your position will always be behind for everyone else and act like a shield.
end of the month maybe, or roughly at around the time of the August update
The session is full, keep trying
It's because someone else is waiting to join the game already.

You make this OT very entertaining. =D
Just 0. It's probably why I tend to whiff my Charger shots. Played at +2 Charger and it made life miserable. I might drop to -2. Dunno yet.
That would be fun. =D

What a horrible session. Online/matchmaking/lag related.
- I hate when you get into the lobbies and "you will join the next game. Starts in 2:50"
- Said 2'50 crashed when 20 seconds left. 2'30 wasted.
- Return to the hall, find a lobby (much more quickly), game starts, connection lost and crashed after one minute. 1'00 wasted. I also hate when the game lose connection after 2 mins+. Better crash quick.
- Return to the hall, play a couple games (finally), then wait for the 8th opponent. 8th guy arrive. Nothing, still waiting in the lobby with the 7 other guys One quit (how? I want to quit too!). Another 8th arrive. Nothing. Another one quit (still, how??). Another 8th arrive (welcome, you'll enjoy this buggy lobby mate). Nothing. Nothing, nothing, nothing... That's the first time I see the 200s counter running out. Kicked back to the hall. Powering off Wii U :/
Also, what those japanese players are doing? It's midnight in Europe, must be Friday 6 or 7AM in Japan. And there is plenty of JP players, everyday! What are they doing? Playing in the morning while having breakfast?

Well you haven't really played with me much I believe. The most recent day I played you my net had pretty much exploded and my FPS had dropped to like sub-30 and I was getting comm errors up the ass. lol. I usually don't lag *that* badly when I'm lagging. Usually it's more like I trade with everybody and their mom and "that aerospray only got one drop on me WTF is this shit?"
Well I suppose, since when I do speedtests during lag my upload is usually fine but my download is just laughing at me being like "Hahaha I'm being sucked the shit out of but you'll never know which of your bros is responsible MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Yeah, you don't need that much bandwidth to play, but if your bandwidth is drastically lower than usual than that's always a bad sign.
Haha yeah if you've been trained in gaf turf wars then C- rooms will be nothing to you
