I'm so used to giving, and now I get to receive 🥹
 
I think it's kind of ironic how Splatfest makes everyone saltier when it's actually supposed to be a celebration of some kind. 😅

It's too bad really! I think maybe having separate ranks even for Turf War could maybe help with that.. idk just spitballing here. XD
 
tricolor would be a great "against the odds" sort of mode if it weren't tied to the event where you're supposed to care about your performance

i understand this may come off as a silly question, but are the ranked modes (tower, clams, etc) as stressful and frustrating as turf war? had a bad losing streak after a good one this morning and i've come to terms with the fact that i only ever feel upset playing that mode, even when i'm winning sometimes. i imagine ranked is much worse in that regard due to being fundamentally more competitive but i wanted to make sure

I find ranked much less stressful actually, as I can rely on teammates more meaning me dying once won't cost us the game

it depends on what you care about

for a long time I would've said ranked is more stressful, and because of the consequences in some respects it is. however ranked is a real game instead of mario party so it feels better to play

i see. gonna give it a while before i touch the game, but i'll keep this in mind. if that doesnt end well, at least i have salmon run
 
Just played 4 rounds on inkblot academy that were absolute murder. No idea what I and the rest of the group of randos were doing but we got trashed hard by fire people. Couldn’t even keep the central areas locked down 🙁

tricolor has the added shitassery of being able to be held down the entire game and then losing in the last ten seconds because they got the god damned ultra signal

I fucking hate this game
 
It was nice being able to both have a fairly balanced map and to be able to play tricolor this time. I like that splatfests are 2 days now but they so desperately need to have a ranked mode available in addition to turf, please Nintendo, we're begging you

Yes, nintendo listen, 48h of painting every goddamn corners and losing in the last seconds is mind numbing.
Enough of this mode!

How much paint can the Ultra Signal actually out down in 10 seconds? I don't think it's that disastrous. Now if they got it because the defenders wiped, that's more of the problem.

you're not wrong but I'm pretty sure any area covered by the sprinkler is covered after time runs out
 
Got up to Fire Ruler aaaaand now I'm officially burnt out, until the update anyway. Hopefully it's substantial. So ready for new stages, new weapons, new clothes, new crap for my locker...
 
Great work out there, Team Water! Even if we don't win, we fought hard for Quaxly and pals, and that's what matters.

Thanks to the Splatfest, I finally completed my catalogue for the season! Now I can rest and relax until next season, though I'm curious to try out a few new weapons in Turf War or Anarchy Open, just to have some fun. But I do gotta beat Odyssey before Pokemon Scarlet comes out! So I guess my time with Splatoon 3 will slow down for a bit. That being said, it has become my second most played game on my OLED, only beaten by Legends Arceus, so that's really cool!
 
The most fun I had was in Pro Splatfest yesterday because I kept running into clearly coordinated/friend teams over Discord in Regular and my random teammates had no shot competing with that LOL. And managed to win at least one 10x to make up for the lost one earlier due to switching my weapon.

Grass has got this or I'll be shocked.
 
By law of Splatfest I am bound to choose Quaxly as my starter on Friday. Congratulations and thank you, Squirtle Squad!
 
We did it! I'm so happy right now!

This is the first Splatfest in Splatoon 3 that I've managed to win. What a great feeling!
 
LET'S GO TEAM WATER!!! I knew we could do it. We rode the waves to victory, and we got the Super Sea Snails to prove it. Congrats to everyone, and GGs to Teams Grass and Fire!

This makes me three for three on Splatfest victories. I have impeccable taste.

PSYCHE WE WIN BAYBAYYY! Big Man Hoo Ha Ha!
 
Congrats Water team! Interesting that the vote changed so dramatically from the half-time report. I could've sworn Grass was slightly ahead of Fire in the voting at that point.

Any ink in the air finishes falling, but I'm pretty sure it stops emitting ink when the timer runs out.
EvilChameleon said:
Yeah that makes sense. Anytime I got into a Tricolor Turf War, nobody got even one of the signals, so...
Click to expand...
Frequently I was seeing the attackers get one Ultra Signal in the tricolor matches I played, but we were seemingly pretty good at making that not matter on team water.
 
Today's SR rotation is very fun. Good weapon selection.

No fucking wonder Fire flopped so hard in the pro category, nobody bothered grinding it out

Are the results by regions? Cause my top 100 looks like this:

The other teams top 100 are very similar or close.

You would be correct. It is the same for the normal sprinkler, rain, brellas and rollers.

personally the two damp socks tracks are my favorites of the batch

Same here, those two songs are my favorites right now. I really enjoy battling to their beats and I freaking love the vocals.

What was your previous score to get there by doing only 7 matches🕵️‍♂️
Click to expand...

I hadn't gotten one yet last splatfest. Maybe that contributed to it? I think it might default to 2500, and the person in first mightve had the same situation except they won 7/7 instead of losing one

Yes, the results are regional. European team Fire really sucked 😅

I'd remove them in a heartbeat, especially the one where Pearl is continuously screaming. It's frustration incarnate for me and the reason why I play without sound

Yeah that's the one, I was in a very intense rainkmaker match with bombs flying everywhere and her screams were giving me mass overstimulation on top of everything else

I think you won matches with high contribution, if not I have no idea given it didn't have a precedent to calculate.
Like I lost only one match and was only at 2000 and the contributions were 1970 and the like.

There's now a way to get your gacha seed, which can be used to predict all your future pulls
Click to expand...

I don't really wanna use the gacha seed finder (wanna keep it a surprise), but being able to find your gear seed instantly on gear you haven't used before is SO nice. This will save me so much time when making gear, especially when they add more gear next month

Do the launch maps suck? I feel like the launch maps mostly suck.

Maybe I'm just a disappointed roller player though. Not a lot of wide open fields to spread my ink.

The launch maps do suck (mostly), but the main complaint from competitive players is that they're either too open or don't have enough areas to use to flank funnily enough

I definitely see the latter. I do miss a lot of flanking areas in older maps, current maps feel like tunnels to the middle area.

As for being too open, I can see that too. The "contested" areas are often very open, so while you would think a roller would appreciate that, they don't actually appreciate it because the roller player is dead to long range weapons lol. Need more side areas ripe for painting.

EDIT: It also feels like there are fewer ways to sneak into the enemy base, though I may not have found the cheeky paths yet.
