    New Gear Abilities Next Season

    Bring back Recon! This is a good idea that absolutely wouldn't have any downsides!

    Splatoon hot takes

    Despite all the concerns about the meta and weapons and kits etc., I feel it's the problems on the backend that hurt this game the most. I could live with so many other issues if the matchmaking and netcode were improved.

    when does spawn-camping go too far or become toxic?

    Lots of good points here. Spawn camping is only ever a problem if it needlessly drags a game out as has been stated. The entire concept of a team being driven back to their base and being unable to get out only occurs because of a large divide in player skill between the teams. There are many...

    Dev's Approach to Patches

    I like how a friend of mine put it. This would be a good, solid patch... If patches were every 2 weeks. This update schedule isn't great.

    Squidboards Under New Ownership

    Yeah, it's still here, and that surge of new people from a few months back has dropped off. Every time I check here it's the same dozen or so people posting. Like I said about a year ago, I'd love to be proven wrong about squidboards. So far, I don't feel that I have.

    Which are better to have on your team?

    Given the choice, enemy rushers. In ranked modes, someone may be dumb and constantly smash their head against the enemy and get splatted, but they might get kills at a crucial time. It's not ideal but I've won games that way, where the rusher(s) broke through at just the right moment for me to...

    Convince Me v52 isn't Overpowered

    https://squidboards.com/threads/weapon-use-rate-in-sendouq-season-2-major-chart-by-https-twitter-com-oliytc.43902/ Is this what you're referring to? The usage chart where there's 8 weapons that had higher comp usage? I don't see how that helps your case when only a handful of matches separate...

    Convince Me v52 isn't Overpowered

    The 52 has to play around it's wall as much as you do when you're facing it, since bombs can be unexpectedly deadly for the 52 when thrown directly at the wall. It's paint also isn't the greatest for it's range category. Finally, randomness can kill you with stray shots, it may have a fast kill...

    is anyone actually going to use pretendo?

    Did you read the rest of my post? The logistics aren't great no matter how you look at it.

    is anyone actually going to use pretendo?

    I doubt this will be a reliable way to play Splatoon 1, sadly. To use an analogy, I play a dead MMO via a fanserver, not going to say which. At any given time there's usually a bit over a thousand players logged in, scattered across various areas and events. That game offers a variety of...

    That's the joy of a competitive game, you never know what to expect when your opponent is another person 👍

    This may be an Unpopular Opinion but I like the OP Specials

    Specials being overpowered wouldn't be as much of a problem if more of them were, but having 19 has to be a balancing nightmare so here we are. Less is more when it comes to game balance. I enjoyed sting ray and missiles a lot back in S2 but yeah.

    does anyone else avoid playing anarchy series?

    Question. If you never play any ranked mode in Anarchy, and only experience those modes when they appear on a challenge, how are you going to accrue enough experience and knowledge to get top 5% for a challenge in any mode that isn't turf? Sounds like you'd be flying blind against competitors...

    Do People Play More Riskily in Big Run (hypothesis)?

    Big run is like splatfests and similar events on other games - there's always people that stopped playing the game but pick it up for events, so they're rusty and then they get on your team and they die a lot. It's a universal concept.

    Thoughts on Squidbagging?

    You're replying to a post I made seven years ago. Seven. Years. Ago. I see you're new to the forums, so here's a tip: "necroposting", or the act of posting in threads that are several years old, only makes you look foolish.
