Coming! Throw me an NNID. Are you using voice chat?
It's full now, sorry :/

Thanks to you avatar, I read all your posts as somehow sad and depressed. Like how you lost in the Splatfest and Judd is making you feel miserable.
Funny.
I just want to strongly suggest that everyone consider using voice chat. In my experience, it can greatly enhance your teams performance. When we play against S/S+ squads, I can usually tell when they are using voice chat. In fact, I would say it is often the difference between them winning or losing.
Plus, the game is more fun and much more convenient to organize. At the very least, I would ask anyone joining my squad to be listening to the voice chat.

More than sad, it's more looking like he's frustrated.
In reality I'm just fishing to get avatar quoted.

Updated weapon usage
Slosher is great but it takes more effort than other weapons (aside from brushes) because I have to keep thinking about positioning myself and the enemy.
Splatling so far still feels like a more limited version of a charger.
Slosher is good. Pretty much what I expected it to be. The heavy falling projectile damage can make for some interesting approaches.
The Splatling is a weapon I am currently trying to get a hang of. The lack of movement options or being able to rush down opponents is something I still need to get used to. For point defense though it is absolutely insane.

I liked the Slosher when I tried it on release night, but I'd have to spend extra time with it to be any good with it. I've seen many folks use it effectively in all game modes, so it's definitely not a throwaway weapon or anything.
I still haven't tried the Splatling myself, but in casual observation it seems to have a higher player skill requirement, because most users I've encountered are dispatched pretty easily. They'll confront you in closeup situations and get splatted before the weapon's "windup" time even finishes. The ones that keep their distance, of course, can be formidable adversaries.
I love the heavy splatling
really starting to get the hang of the different charge levels. there's three different charges I've found useful, about 2/3's of the first charge, the first full charge, and the second full charge. it's really great at laying down ink over walls and I have become very fond of the splash wall.
I want to like the slosher but as with the L-3 Nozzlenose and ink brush I just don't want to spam the trigger that much
Slosher is great. Splatling is fun, but I can't seem to use it well.
Sounds like you have a new main.
More like I'm annoyed with fighting them and having them walk backwards out of my range while killing me :I

I'm so salty Nintendo renamed ABXY to The Chirpy Chirps. Cmon Nintendo what are you doing. The original band and song name was so much better
Nah even a run speed main doesn't help the dual squelcher much

Looks like it's time to join the heavy class.

Looks like it's time to join the heavy class.
I'll consider it if one with beakons comes out lol
Also that complaint was specifically due to some of my shootouts with you, lots of splatling users just stand still and fire but I've lost several duels against you where all you had to do is walk backwards and fire
Well, I'll be online again in a minute
ill make a room now! just saw you come
anyone else?
BTW you guys were really good!
Yeah, that's what I do when I out range someone coming at me from the front. Just walk backwards until they're dead.

Shamelessly I take part of your thanks and give mine to you.
It was fun and it went quite well - when not meeting four S ranked. It's pleasant to play when the team actually understands how to play the game - even better than me. I don't have a clue, I'm just improvising.

I can only bring my phone down with me when I play Splatoon downstairs, I don't want to lug my computer up and down
Does the voice chat work fine with phones?Haven't played the Splatling yet, I'll get to that at some point.
Slosher is super fun though
It has great coverage, good range, and fights vertically very well. However the shot is somewhat narrow. At least, it seems easy to get evaded when I used it, so I have to work on landing the 2nd hit.Until NoE confirms their name (they use a different English script) I'm sticking with ABXY. It's the only way!I'm so salty Nintendo renamed ABXY to The Chirpy Chirps. Cmon Nintendo what are you doing. The original band and song name was so much better

Longer, it's in between the range of the dual squelcher/splattershot pro/.96 gal and the jet squelcher.
Longer. Seems to be somewhere in the area of Jet Squelcher, but I'm not sure exactly how they stack up against each other. It feels like they outrange me a bit when I'm JS, but it might be that I just wasn't spaced properly in some of our encounters.
Looking for one more player for our squad.

Hmmm, cool, I would imagine it would be roughly the same as jet squelcher or maybe a little less haha. It has the same range no matter how long you charge right?
the losing animation is pretty great too. it's like "what? I've got this big ass gun and still lost?? I don't understand..."
yeah unless you just tap the trigger. then you'll get just a single blob to shoot out and it won't go as far.
