Dude I made two huge posts on Mario Kart World and there's still stuff that I'm only now learning about. We're not at this point yet but oh my goodness don't tell me I'm gonna need to make a third one LOL
It's really funny having convinced everyone to play Splatoon 2 and seeing people's responses to the game being half fascination and half pure hatred LOL
As Adphae mentioned earlier, I won Low Ink Beta for a second time! Big thank you to Adphae, Kitty, and Blackout, very good play from them, as well as Cosmo for organizing this and scrimming us.
It's the first time in a while where I feel like a bad player from noticeable habits I know I can fix and I just tied my best tournament result ever. I have SO MUCH ROOM TO GROW and it's very exciting!!
For the first time, all of my "favorite weapons" are swords. It took me to 800+ wins with Mint Decav even though I only have 630 on Tentatek Splattershot which was taking up the third spot beforehand. Weird but we take it woooo
Well I'm now completely adjusted to the Decav nerfs as of yesterday. Fine with the painting nerf after seeing people's general reaction to that even if I still think the frame data nerf was extremely stupid. They definitely should've nerfed the hitboxes instead but the worst of dealing with what they did is behind me now
All of the replays I have for more frontline-y weapons are turning up similar so I might just condense them all to one video. I'm seeing a lot of similar ideas with strengths and weaknesses, not the same but it makes little sense for me to make three videos where 90% of what I say is the same.
Maybe I'll feel differently about it later so I'll wait and keep an open mind but gotta put this out there
Played a few games tonight. Since I've spent so much time on the weapon the Decav nerfs are both very noticeable and a bit annoying. I'll be able to get used to them though so it's at least not too far from what I expected
Hit four stars with Squiffer yesterday. Despite getting no more than seven picks in a single game I still won around half of my matches. My Squiffer is like, NOT good AT ALL, but it goes to show just how far positioning far enough forward and playing fast can go.
People say that making the wrong play fast is better than making the right play slow and if you need more proof of that, then here you go lmao
Really funny moment in an X-Rank game today. My team was being locked out, so I sharked in wait for team to be back. Enemy Roller threw a Curling Bomb and started swimming, Stamper went another way....then like 10 seconds later I see an ink trail indicating someone swam by, and it ends right next to me.
The Roller was sharking right next to me while I was sharking. Took me ages to notice and I kill him for it LOL
I've been playing Splatoon from time to time, but the "grind sessions" that used to be normal for me haven't happened in a long, LONG while. First one in several months was today, partially thanks to @isaac4's pickup partially thanks to playing w an irl friend. I think my drive to get better is back LOL
I feel strong, yet like there's so much room to grow and I can totally make it
This recent rally for more content creation has convinced me that the moment life opens up for me to, I should be trying to work on getting a Splatoon channel up. I have some decent experience with YouTube, am pretty articulate, and know a lot about this game that others don't. It can't hurt to try and kickstart people to at least get to around my level. Sounds kinda fun too tbh
welp. chances are this'll be the first luti i have to miss as a part of the community seeing as my team disbanded and life stuff keeps me from getting a new one. unfortunate
in case people didn't think my posts were long enough i just started a thread where i went so far into detail that i broke the character limit and had to split it into four different posts for it to let me through. 12,000 words long.
maybe i'll do this again but it will be a LONG time before then
I think I'm done only ever playing Decav now. It'll still be what I play most often, still by far the most fun weapon for me. But Wiper Deco's playstyle is starting to become a lot of fun for me again and it might genuinely force me into learning to play with my teammates better. I've found myself occasionally going to other stuff too
Huh. Realized today that I might be able to force my way into being a better teammate by going back to play more Wiper Deco, aka a weapon that is extremely difficult to get full value with unless you're playing alongside others. Should be fun to revisit that thing
