My school just got put into max lock down, I'm ok but there are police and people are saying there either is or was someone with a gun in the bathrooms. I'm ok but send me prayers, I'm kind of freaking out right now

Update 2: IT WAS A FREAKING SWATTING I HATE SOCIETY
I just learned that the teams had NO VOICE CHAT in Koshien like what, plus they could hear the announcers too. What was Nintendo even thinking there?

Apparently it's causing a bit of a controversy in Japan, plus it also means that the jp team qualified for worlds was decided on turf war only, so if your team's insane at turf but terrible elsewhere you still got qualified. That's... kind of dumb

Just realized, while looking at the other KDRs I've posted here, I forgot to ever post the single most buckwild match I've played, Clams Hagglefish. Both disconnects happened with over a minute left in the game. I've never felt more insync with a solo teammate in my life like I did with the one teammate

It's occurring to me that I might feel less overwhelmed and lost 95% of the time if I had a panel of splatoon experts that I could just ask 10 million questions to and have long drawn out discussions about complex concepts and they wouldn't mind or judge me.

...and also if I could actually convince myself they didn't mind and I wasn't wasting their time or being annoying by asking them.

@Grushi Fair point, I mean there are certainly some folks around who could be considered experts. I guess in my head I was thinking more in an imaginary situation where it was just me and said experts where I could be more open/vulnerable than I am on a public forum, heh.

@Aiko.Octo Oh yeah I get it, it's certainly not the greatest place to get too personal

It's because of the shutdown of splatoon 1's servers on the 8th. It caused a disturbance within the collective chakras of splatoon fans around the world, disturbing the Moon itself, which culminated in a solar eclipse that same night!!!!

Some splatoon fans still suffer from the after effects of this tragedy, please consult your local astrologist to learn more!!!!! There may still be time to heal your heart!!
Guys I HAVE to share this.
I never uploaded anything to youtube before but this. This was too much, I died laughing when I realized what happened at the end, it took me a solid 2 seconds to realize it

It's a web site dedicated to competitive Splatooning actually! SendouQ is best for getting ideas on what gears to use for your weapons, but you can also participate in tournaments, watch videos people post (like I did!), and look at art. It's a neat site to make a build and learn.

So you can look at what I use and what gears I use for what modes and look at how I play the game :)

In all seriousness though, the kaizer vs jackpot set was the hypest set I've watched since the inkTV resurgence league last year where jackpot and AR beat starburst. I HIGHLY recommend watching it, both teams were playing insanely well, and ZerraZ was insane that match, there were so many sick plays

Oh and Nine and Jordan Kent were great as always

The announcer was the real Splatoon 3 Champion

Seconding Kaizer V Jackpot as easily the highlight of worlds. Obviously the finals were a very close second in terms of the best part, but man, Kaizer V Jackpot was something ELSE
The takeaway from worlds: Don't pick rapid pro on rainmaker, its not good. (especially not if you're pairing it with nmachine and nstamper)

However I feel like JP is overthinking it when picking it, since there are glaring flaws with picking a weapon that, cannot kill or paint quickly/effectively on rainmaker of all modes.

Combined with other weapons that have the same issue (nmachine) you're left with a team composition that falls apart after a few weapons go down, and that completely relies on having a singular special available at the right time to actually push the objective.

Damn, I didn't expect such a thorough answer 😅
But I see your point! It kind of seems like an overly complicated 10 000 IQ "counterpick", and even then, I don't think it's that good into squeezer. It's still solid at least, but yeah the other weapons need to complement it or else welp
My school network just blocked access onto Inkepedia (splatoonwiki.org) 💀💀💀 I think I'm the only one who goes on there at school, I am just making spreadsheets man come on... smh 😔😔😔
