Results are about what I expected, given the mirror matches and general quality of gameplay from me and my fellow Eggheads. 'Tis a shame. Though it pains me greatly, I am forced to admit that I am no longer the same Turf War-rior that I was three—hecc, even five—years ago. So many missed shots...

Nobody made a proper thread for Splatfest Revisited II? Damn, it really is a ghost town out here. FeelsBadMan With that out of the way... my first game of the 'fest was a mirror match with DCs on both teams. This does not bode well for Team Egg's chances. EDIT: Make that 5 mirror matches in a...

Hi, I'm the idiot that thought ditching this game for a PS4 and its garbage was a good idea some three years ago. Not like I was very active before then, but that was what drove me to stop focusing on Splatoon, and the boards by proxy. (granted, I'd probably be a lot more active if the site...

I'm getting mild war flashbacks to the old Pizza v. Burgers Splatfest from back in the day. Seems the mayos have a bad habit of being simply better than I and my fellow ketchupites are. I wager it's only so rough because of a bit of ring rust on my end, so to speak; such is the consequence of...

...and here I was secretly hoping I'd be proven wrong after all. Although, let's not discount the positives of this: However briefly, we got the old bitchy Marina that nobody liked back Pearl telling "Reena" to Just Don't Lose™ (4Head), a most fitting reaction Damn, but that team battle...

This was such a ****ing stupid Splatfest idea. I only went team Fork because I wanted free wins, and also out of a vain hope that they'd reuse the red ink for the team. Alas, we got pepto-bismol again, and the wins... mostly weren't free. (Not that I mind, I prefer challenging matchups anyhow...

So... not that I have too much of a complaint, since I still won the match in the end, but... I don't think I've ever been in a match where literally (and I do mean literally) everybody apart from one opponent and myself disconnected. I can only assume that the server took a partial dump or...

Saw a post that reminded me, neither squids nor octopodes can hold a candle to the glorious cuttlefish. Similar body shape to a squid, only more so, and with cuter eyes. (Well, cuter until they dilate, anyhow.) But alas, there are no Cuttlings in the Splatoon universe yet, so we must make do.

Huh, wasn't expecting so many replies. Thanks all! (And honestly, it kinda feels like I never left. For good and for bad. :D)

So, uh, I'd say that it's been a while, but I feel I've been back long enough (both in-game and on this site) that that's not the case anymore. That being said, it's still been 6 months or so, so there's still some stuff I'm in the dark about. So I'll ask anyway: other than the DLC, is there...

tbh high tide is never pleasant, no matter the map. That, I'd say, is the ultimate test for how well the four players work, as a team and individually. One wrong move with an uncoordinated team and you're all screwed unless you all pull something amazing out of yer *****. Though I'd say maybe...

I admit there was a bit of salt in my earlier post. I will agree that you get a good sense of how a weapon works as you're laying waste to the fishy hordes. But like I said, I'm a bit washed up, and it helps not that 75% of the day's loadout are/were A) weapons that I've never touched outside...

A bit late, but I did a little diggin' and yeah, there's actually been a few Splatfests where one team got completely BTFO in all categories. Dunno if it'll happen to this one, but I have a feeling the odds of that are slightly higher than normal.

ProTip: Salmon Run is not the best place to learn how to use weapons you haven't used yet. Which is a shame, because this particular loadout has 3 that fit that criterion. I dunno if it's that, or if I'm washed up, or everybody else is sucking, or if it's the unusually excessive amount of...

Let me think a bit. People have been clamoring for Octolings since, what what it, August of 2015? And they only got louder after S2 came out featuring an Octoling as a semi-important (at the time) NPC? And then we got the DLC, which not only has probably the best single-player mode and story...
