Sorry for a question that may have been answered but how can I play with you guys? I had the game for a while so I'm not entirely terrible

Add someone to your friends list and from there you can friend request everyone else.
Here, add me (quote this)
What Ghost has said. You can find a spreadsheet of all the GAF's NNID on the 6th post of this thread. Add the active posters from the last 2 page and when you get into GAF rooms, just add people you don't have.Sorry for a question that may have been answered but how can I play with you guys?

I didn't know Kasumi was your gf Emil, I thought she was a random that was wrecking me with the N-zap. She's pretty good.

Charger lockdown is real. I don't enter the center of Moray unless I got kraken

I was just about to complain that everyone in this room knows better than to jump down in the centre. But I love air sniping!

Rank me down all the way to C-. I don't care any more. Why should I have to suffer through CONSTANT carrying of these idiots who only deserve C-? It's obvious the match making wants me there. Screw it.

How can I improve my Charger accuracy? Stationary targets - no problem. But when someone is moving left or right, luck has a part in whether I hit him or not.
When someone's moving, do I have to hit him when the reticule is X'd or do I shoot in advance when he's moving into it? The same with jumping: I can hit someone (sometimes) when they're are jumping but I'm not conscious of what I'm doing.

James, I have never seen someone pull a rail swim maneuver like that before. I'm torn between being in awe and calling that kill bullshit.
But really I'm in awe.

Same here. I'm losing interest in rank in Ranked and now play it just for the heck of it. Although it greatly pisses me off watching how poorly some people play.
Without a doubt, I might be occasionally the one who needs carrying but still.

You have to predict where they will be since it takes time for the shot to reach your target. This principle applies to all weapons to varying degrees. The slower the projectile the more you have to compensate.
Or you can just run at your opponent with an aerospray and not be a detriment to your team.
James and Vecks locked my entire game every single time on Moray, just wanted to climb for the view man, nothing more.
But aren't we helping you there? Your spawn has a nice view too.
It's kind of the opposite for me. Some matches I don't even get a single kill, but somehow my team still wins. I really don't understand how I'm still in A.

Good night.
When the X appears. The projectile moves stupidly fast, it might as well be hitscan. It also might be hitscan. I seem to see the splat icon faster when i get the X as opposed to when randomly hit someone invisible in ink. It could be the sound effect screwing with my sense of time though.
Edit: That said, I dont think you should be mentally checking yourself when the X appears, nor should you respond to it. The X should appear, but you should be more aware of how you aimed your shot beforehand. Also, if you are fine with stationary targets, you could be showing your laser in a predictable pattern. In the weapons test room, try aiming at the center squid dummy, before jerking to the left and to the right to hit those squids. When you shoot real life squids, one of the useful shots is this left to right quick snap, so you should practice so you have it down.

I've seen more people wearing the marshmallows t-shirt/writing about team marshmallows than Team Hotdogs on Miiverse... don't tell me I chose the least popular team again

Thanks a lot! That's clarifying.

4x winrate change. Target the more skilled demographic.

Having three chargers on your team and none on the opposition in Moray is fucking hilarious .

It is. My bombs were getting doubles and triples, which helped ease the frustration caused by ranked's RNG screwing me over.
BTW, I'm gonna add you. I made it a habit to add anyone who mains or wants to pick up Chargers. The reason I did that was because I was the OG GAF Charger when everyone said they sucked. Now, they're common, but it's fun to duel other skilled Chargers.
Oh, another reason is because we're the only ones to snipe Azure midair and on stream so far, soooo high five!
A word on my style: Most of SplatGAF knows me as the Charger user, but my aim isn't typically impressive. It's really my aggressive bomb play that people really know me by at this point. Just ask most of NightSplatGAF. As you've seen, I'm an in-your-face Charger player who has some success in campy play, though I find that style to be pretty boring. I sit at a 20-30 degree angle from the center of my TV, which makes aiming somewhat weird.

Both ranked mode will be fixed in mall, not just splatzone.

It's the worst map after all.

Too much lag on your current screen?
I dont know what it is. Like its a TV now so its bigger? But the thing is i was running drills earlier today and the same amount of movement should get my cursor from the middle squid baloon the the left one, but its like overshooting by 1.5. I had to lower my sensitivity from +2 to -2 and it still feels off. Not going to have my monitor by the august update, so i need to grind this one out.
Edit: It must be latency, but i cant feel it as such, just that the gyro seems shifted.

That 0.4 win.

What TV? Model number and everything please. I was able to at least decently adapt from my 19" SDTV's no input lag to my my 60" LG's maybe 44 ms input lag to 42" Vizio with maybe 28-32 ms of input lag. If not input lag, then maybe mental fatigue from the move?
IIRC There was one with the name "Compass" but I don't know if that's the same person.

AGAIN, three chargers on Moray and none on the opposition. It's just unfair.
definately not fatigue. This is crazy drastic. I used to be 95% accurate snapping to any stationary point on the screen. Im at like 30% now. Uh its a panasonic tc-p42st30. I set the thing to game mode.

Jeff had me on goddamn LOCK that entire match. Only so much I can do with a team that sucks at invading.
That Hiro set is useless when going as a scout with the splattershot jr., next time I'll try to go with a lot of swim speed up, I need to learn to be as harassing as possible with short/mid range weapons just like you guys. Can't wait for the special up buff too, it seems to take forever to load the bubbler.But aren't we helping you there? Your spawn has a nice view too.
BlueSilver

Yeah, it's probably the screen size or the way you sit while aiming. That, you you screwed up the Gamepad's gyro moving it. =P
I'll join Jeff's room blind since the TV needs to be off right now. I do share a room. Just join through me.
i think i figured it out. Its not the screen size. But the latency of when my ZR releases compared to the visual imput i get from the scrolling squid body. I recognize when the thing im focusing at crosses the middle of the screen. Before i would release at that moment, now i have to release like 4 frames early.
edit 4 frames is an exaggeration, but still. Its crazy how much 1 frame affects this.

Back shortly.
are you in? because i dont see a single friend joinable.
BlueSilver

Oh yeah. =/
Joining someone blind, I think. It might be Jeff.
Tv is on now
60 degree angle from the center of the screen is rough lol. Couldn't hit anything.

People thought chargers sucked? Is that on record in the first OT somewhere? It sounds amusing to read.
And high five!
really? oyster clogs and power helmet. Its rancid.
BlueSilver

The Testfire and first days of Splatoon had everyone either hating the Charger for one reason or another or outright dismissing it as pointless for Turf War. That thought process was shown every now and then in the first OT.
That second one...Violet, what are you doing in a Splatoon ad?
BlueSilver

Lol.
By the way, I find it hilarious that we have 2 Charger mains with Pokemon in their avatars. =P
thank god for that.
Edit: I dont think I landed a single twitch shot during that session. Luckily the E liter scopes range is so ridiculous i can play a peekaboo style. I'm kinda dissapointed though. Since i didnt have wifi, i did the test room and charger amiibo levels when i was bored. Near the end, I was machine. But its gone now.
