Splatfest mechanics. Please be new modes i will be so happy.

I feel the exact opposite about Zones. So many games ends up being completely one sided if a team takes control of the map early. And games last half as long as TC/RM. IMHO they should have set it up so the zones are not static cause it just promotes ultra campy game-play which on some maps is...

I think the ranked system is incredibly fair and balanced when you compare it to other games such as League of Legends where if you start to even out winning and losing, the system traps you in a hole where wins give you barely anything until you manage to go on a big winning streak. In...

I am not really sure if this is really effective versus other techniques but during the demo i found out you can use the weak grenades very quickly from stealth and instantly cover ground on-top of you. This may be useful for going into enemy ink from your own ink without popping up. Since the...
