Discussion Which game do I buy for PVP?

5 Upvotes

Hi, Raiders was my first Splatoon game and I really enjoyed it. The co-op multiplayer was probably my favorite part, so now I’m itching for some PVP. Do I just get the latest in the series (I think 3)? Is that what has the most active players?

Salmon Run All Splatanas can phase through Scrappers

It's the easiest with Mint and GTana but also possible with Stamper and Wiper. The Scrapper must be moving toward you or fully stunned for it to work reliably.

Probably practical only sometimes but it looks cool.

yeah basically the title. i love octobrushes and i have cometz at 6*. before then i couldn’t really use it because all of the kits were just… not to my liking. i am NOTORIOUSLY bad at zipcaster, i even struggle at countering it even after 900 hours. i tried picking it up for practice in turf war today (i only play weapons i am familiar with in ranked) and … i did horribly until my last game before bed where i did pretty well (image is the replay code)
can anyone judge any mistakes im making judging from my gameplay? just dont be mean thats all i ask, i am trying to learn. again this was the only good game i had.

I've watched Guides, rankings, etc, but haven't found much improvement. Tried different classes, tried different gear loadout, yet nothing. I'm truly wanting to improve, yet, nothing is happening for me.

Competitive Any videos on Multi Anchor/Backlines Comp?

2 Upvotes

To start, I don't want to get in competitive Splatoon, I just want to see the game played at a higher level. I have seen and watched games of Anchorless team comps but I'm curious about the other direction, I want to see games where a team has multiple backliners.

I've tried looking on Youtube but it really isn't that good for finding videos. I also tried Sendou.ink but many of it's features are unacessable (including the search bar) without an account, which requires Discord which I don't have given it's company history.

If anyone could send me some, that would be greatly appreciated!

Original Art [Original Content - My Art] Lego Splatoon Raiders final boss MOC Spoiler

Thumbnail gallery
19 Upvotes

For this moc, my inspiration of the whole thing was the arms and hands. I took one look at them and was like "Hey. Lego got some parts that look like that." I am very proud of the hands or claws I guess. I always wanted to do hands like this but never made something big enough to justify using the build.

The heads I really wanted to make sure I to as close as I could to what the in game model looked like. So after 3 different versions of it, I finally landed on this design. The heads are fully capable of rotating on a swivel however, are static in the neck.

The crystals were an interesting challenge. Had to make sure that they did not clash with the necks and arms and making sure they looked wild but uniform.

The body and tail were the hardest part mostly because of how repetitious it was to do it and making the segments in the body work. The tail was a load of trial and error. I wanted to make sure that it was thining out at the end but I couldn't figure it out till I remembered some bricks with studs on the front and back of them. Making it so that I could regular parts, upside-down.

Finally, the wings were interesting to make. I originally wanted to use cloth pieces to make them look more natural. But Studio does not have any in there. So, I went with using blade pieces for them.

This took probably about 3-4 days of work spread out over 3 months because I was procrastinating.

There is also a Mechanic minifig in there for scale. A Minifig is 1.6in tall or 4cm.

I was the one who posted a Bot Buddy moc a few months ago here too.

Video ​I got 100 Angle Shooter splats because I thought it would be hilarious

Thumbnail

​So, I have been playing the Recycled Brella Mk I and Mk II since I first tried them a few weeks after getting Splatoon 3 this year. While I found the Mk II more consistent and easier to use, nothing could beat the fun that the Mk I gave me because of the Angle Shooter when I actually landed my shots. That was until I recently got an intrusive thought: what if I got 100 splats with the Angle Shooter? (without "Work the Angles" to make them happen naturally).

​At first, I thought it would be a funny yet painful challenge, so I ignored it. But the thought came back a few hours later and somehow convinced me to go for it with the excuse that I would just clip the splats I got, without any real pressure, treating it as a hilarious joke. Eventually, it completely took over and I became so obsessed that I even started dreaming about Angle Shooter splats sometimes (though I still played a reasonable amount of time each day). Nevertheless, it was always meant to be just a fun joke (but you should never follow intrusive thoughts).

​Let me be clear: I am not a very good player and my aim is usually pretty mediocre. This is just a compilation of the best moments, but I have to say I have an unusual amount of luck in video games, and I’m pretty sure that carried me a lot.

​Also, all of this was done purely as a joke and I have zero intention of embarrassing any of the players featured. Please note that a lot of the clips are not in chronological order. If you see me standing completely still after getting a splat in a few clips, it wasn't to mock anyone; I was just stunned in disbelief that the shot actually landed and splatted someone (because this was one of my first times getting an Angle Shooter splat). We were all just having a good time playing, or at least I had fun most of the time.

​Finally, if you're wondering, for at least 90% of this video I ran this build: Comeback and three subs of Ink Saver (Main) on headgear; one main and one sub of Quick Respawn, one sub of Quick Super Jump, and one sub of Ink Recovery Up on clothing; and Stealth Jump, one sub of Special Saver, one sub of Ink Resistance Up, and one sub of Quick Super Jump on shoes (I also show it at the start of the video).

​Note: I will be pretty busy with school assignments over the next few days, so I won't be checking here too much, nor do I think I will be posting anything else in the future. If you are reading this post, thank you so much.

Also, editing this video was a nightmare for me because it was my first time using video editing software, and the quality is low because the Nintendo Switch recorder was all I had.

Lastly, I added a few more in case I miscounted.
